VAIO’s first-ever smartphone unveiled

The now-independent VAIO brand has just announced its very first smartphone — the VAIO Phone. Scroll past the break to see what they’re offering as their first venture in the smartphone category.

VAIO Phone specs:
5-inch HD TFT IPS display @1280 x 720 resolution
1.2GHz quad-core processor
2GB RAM
16GB storage
Expandable up to 64GB via microSD
13MP rear camera
Wi-Fi
Bluetooth 4.0
LTE
71.3 x 141.5 x 7.95mm (dimensions)
130 grams (weight)
2,500mAh battery
Android 5.0 Lollipop

The VAIO Phone, (a very straightforward name) reportedly carries a $420 price tag, but is currently open only to the Japanese market. It’s a bit pricey for its specs but we’re willing to give them the benefit of the doubt until we’ve examined their phone closely.

What do you think of VAIO’s handset now that it’s a totally different entity from Sony?
