Sony has a nice mid-range handset with the Xperia SP, and you’ll finally be able to get your hands on one starting from today. Orange and T-Mobile are both offering the handset so far, with O2, Three, and EE also due to follow suit once they have stock. T-Mobile may be worth checking out for those after a PAYG handset. The network is offering the phone for just £250 with a £10 top-up.
That’s not bad value at all considering what’s on offer. The Xperia SP comes with a 4.6-inch 720p display along with a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor clocked at 1.7Ghz, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage, and an 8-megapixel camera. It’s not the thinnest handset at 9.9mm thick, but it does come with LTE connectivity as well as a large 2,370mAh battery.
Orange is also offering the phone, but it looks like the network has already run out of stock. Still, the operator is offering the device for free on a £20.50 a month tariff. if you’re not looking to be tied down by a two-year contract, then the unlocked edition of the phone will be made available soon enough. Xperia Blog says that Handtec is expecting stock today, with the retailer offering the phone for £314. Clove, however, says its stock has been delayed until May 13th, but the price will be slightly cheaper at £300.
