the new Sony Xperia miro
in japanese, the word miro is referred to see.. meaning, this new model is about seeing something which, in the beginning i don't really see... but when i had my time with it, i now see what it is to see with it... hehe...
fortunate enough, i bought this model just recently at JB, which had come to my attention that is much more up to date than in KL... in the first few days, it was like a same android that was produced by Sony, (in the old days they still call themselves Sony Ericsson)... just the usual, nice screen, great speaker and a good quality camera... but one other thing that Sony like to do is adding some style to it's model... i'm not saying that other brands like Samsung don;t like to add style, but Sony usually came up with something more stylish...
the stylish LED illumination
the thing that made this model more stylish is the LED illumination... the illumination then becomes invisible as if there's nothing there to show.. but when you turn the screen on, there it is to illuminate your colourful life... not only that, this LED is also user friendly.. you can change the colour of it based on your theme... cool right... other than that, this phone is way more slimmer than it's competitor... unlike it's nearest rival Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus, the miro has slimmer and more compact design... however, in order to achieve this compact design, the miro has to turn down a gigantic screen to it's characteristic... but, the 3.5 inch display is still big enough for you to SEE...
the back view
turn it over and you will see a speaker hole, the 5.0 megapixel camera with LED flash, the 'XPERIA' word and also, the old reliable logo... the back of the phone was rubberized to increase grip considering the thin design made it easy for the phone to slip off your hand... the rubberized back is also good in terms of exterior look rather than the old X8 which had a fingerprint magnet for a battery cover... other than the usual stuff is the processor which is pretty good for moderate usage... 800 Mhz processor is bit slower than the Ace Plus's 1Ghz processor.. but it still reasonable considering the price is much cheaper than the Ace Plus... however, as for the software, the miro quickly claims it's higher ground than the Ace Plus as it uses the ICS while the Ace uses the Gingerbread... next, the battery lifespan for the miro is also incredible... usually, if we are using a phone with the internet running all day, before we go to sleep at night, the phone would always ask us to charge it... it's different with miro... the battery can still last for at least until the next morning... even after that, there's still enough juice for you to use the phone to fool around....
the colour range for miro
finally, the last offering which made the miro worthy is the price... the miro is available at a price below the RM600 bar, which means RM5**... don't forget, it's original... crazy huh?? this is because, it's closest rival, the Ace is above the RM600 bar... all in all, the miro is worthy to those who are looking for the phone that's running on android ICS with an easy access to Facebook and other social network and has all the fancy, stylish features...
