During their press event today at the IFA trade show, Sony unveiled three new Android smartphones in their efforts to turnaround years of massive losses and a degrading reputation.
The Xperia T is the company's new global flagship. The device has a 4.6-inch HD Reality display powered by Sony Mobile's Bravia engine. Under the hood is a dual-core processor at 1.5GHz, LTE and NFC support and Android 4.0.4 at launch with a promised update to Jelly Bean. The device is PlayStation Certified and will have access to PSOne classic games. Sony says it will be available globally in the next month.
Moving down the line, the Xperia V has a 4.3-inch HD display with Bravia, a dual-core 1.5GHz processor, LTE, NFC and is also PlayStation Certified. Additionally, the phone will offer the "highest level of water resistance available in a smartphone."
For the budget-conscious consumer, the Xperia J has a 4-inch FWVGA display, a 5MP rear camera, and a front-facing camera for video chats.
Each phone comes with a 60-day free trial to Sony's Music Unlimited service.
