The Sony Xperia U is one of the latest offering of Sony. This is a stylish dual-core and Android smartphone that will allow you to customize it to your hearts content. You can basically change the way the phone look to suit your specific mood. You can do so by changing the phone's bottom cap and change the color of the phone's transparent and illuminated bar. You can change the phone's LED strip to light up when you make or receive a call. This will truly get the attention of the youth or the stylish you.
The phone's key features are as follows:
- 1GHz dual-core processor
- Android Gingerbread (Upgradable to Ice Cream Sandwich)
- Interchangeable color end caps
- 3.5" display screen with 480 x 854p for its resolution

If you think about it Sony's latest Xperia handsets boasts that elegant design and powerful hardware. This is something that we haven't seen from high-end smartphones recently. Sony made it a point to give their latest Xperia handsets a bit of glitz and glamour by adding interesting color combinations.
The phone's actual dimensions are 112 x 54 x 12mm and it comes in with a 3.5" screen. This is considered as the baby amongst its new siblings. The phone is just like the Xperia S and P when it comes to design. They all have that simple curved back and the famous rectangular fronted design. They also boast that matte plastic on their backs and a glass that covers the unit's screen. You will also find that same transparent white strip that the Xperia S first showed us. This transparent strip lights up when you get incoming calls and notifications. But this handset is quite different from its siblings because you can change the color of the phone's famous transparent strip.
You can also change the phone's bottom part and choose a different color. The black version of this handset comes in with a pink colored cap while the white version comes in with a yellow colored cap.
If you look at the phone's internals you will find that it houses a whopping 1GHz dual-core processor. The latest Android Iteration is not available on this handset yet, but soon you will be able to update its Gingerbread OS to it. You will also get famous PlayStation games on this handset.
The Sony Xperia U is a capable and cool smartphone. It is smaller and lightweight too. But then again don't let its size fool you because this is a power packed handset (based it on the phone's key features alone).
