Xperia C has Sonys unique design heritage , such as sharp corners , the power / lock and frame that surrounds typical mobile phone . The front is glossy black and white cell phone , while the side and rear frame purple . The back is matte plastic material , and it turns out the back of the frame side of the phone is a unity that can be separated with a mobile phone . Therefore , how to open it rather troublesome and not as easy as opening the rear cover on other phones . Before you open it , make sure you read the manual that came first. Place insert two SIM cards and micro SD slot behind the back cover , but still no removable battery .
To own dimensions , the phone feels a bit bongsor for a smartphone with 5 -inch screen , and weighs 153 grams with . Thickness of 8.9 mm are likely not a problem , but the phone feels rather wide bezel fairly within the screen . With a matte material , the phone does not feel slippery when held , moreover somewhat curvy shape and in accordance with the palm of the hand . But the lack of a matte material is very visible if dirty and somewhat difficult to clean . The impression given from the phone itself is quite a luxury , not much different from the impression that emerges from the cell phone position is on top as the Xperia Z and Z1 Ultra . The presence of the camera button is also considered very helpful in order to keep the grip to minimize blur when shooting . Hidden notification LED ( not visible if not active ) as the Z1 , but its at the bottom of the screen . There are no physical buttons on the Xperia C , so you have to rely on the virtual on-screen touch buttons .
Screen Xperia C is not special . Although the viewing angle from above tend to be good even flagship Sony Xperia Z , arguably less brilliant color . Not nonjok / punchy phrase .
