Smart is now taking reservations for the Sony Xperia V starting today. For a limited time (until January 30, 2013), the Sony Xperia V will be free under Smart’s UnliData Plan 1500 which includes 120 SMS and 60 minutes worth of voice calls to all networks and 1.5GB data cap. The Sony Xperia V runs on Android Ice Cream Sandwich and boasts a 1.5GHz dual-core processor paired with a gigabyte of RAM. Following the footsteps of its rugged predecessors, the Sony Xperia V looks to take the throne as sexiest and smartest toughie around from its older brothers, or can it? Although the handset barely possess significant difference from the other toughie from the Japanese stable the Xperia Acro S (which actually bested the recently introduced Xperia V is some aspects), it does have some slight advantage over the Acro S like LTE support and a megapixel better camera. Basing from the specs sheet alone, we think that the Xperia V is more of a parallel model to the Xperia Acro S than a flagship handset that will take over it. Sony’s Xperia 1 VIII has surfaced in an eSIM database, hinting that the next-generation flagship is already in testing. Despite Sony’s quieter smartphone strategy in recent years, the Xperia 1 VIII seems ready to continue the brand’s legacy of creator-focused, camera-first Android flagships.
