dual-SIM version as well. The handset

Based on Android 4.4.4 KitKat, the Sony
Xperia E4g features a smaller 4.7-inch

Sony claims provides two days of batter
life. The Japanese firm has also include

modes to help.
The Sony Xperia E4 and Sony Xperia E4
Dual will be available in Black and White
colour variants, and despite featuring

recent handsets from the company,
including its predecessor, the Sony Xperi
E3 . The smartphone features curved
edges, a textured back panel, a scratch
resistant display, a diamond-cut
aluminium power button, and a stainless
steel camera ring.
"Xperia E4 set out to bring many of the
premium features people expect of Sony
to lower-tier devices; Xperia E4g brings
that same quality and ease of use - but
with super-fast 4G LTE connectivity"
stated Tony McNulty, Vice President,
Value Category Business Management at
Sony Mobile Communications in the
company blog post . "With simple set-up
and unrivalled 2 day battery life, we
believe both models represent value for
those who want premium Sony
technology and experiences often only
associated with high-end devices."
