Sony's Xperia Miro may be affordable, but its performance can disappoint.
Good build quality, Long battery life, Good call quality, Runs Ice Cream Sandwich
Price is high for the specification, Small, low resolution screen, Limited memory for storage

Sony's second budget handset in as many months - does it do enough to stand out?
Long battery life ; Great music player ; Great for calls and messaging ; Strong connectivity options
Poor screen ; Terrible video recording ; Sluggish performance ; Cheap build ; Little storage
It seems like only yesterday that we were putting the Sony Xperia Tipo through its paces, but here already, with just the smallest of spec boosts, is the Sony Xperia Miro.

Sony has yet another smartphone for us to take a peek at. In what seems like a line up more complex than discovering the Higgs Boson, the Xperia Miro is

We review the Sony Xperia Miro. It's like a Sony Xperia Tipo, only a little more premium, a little more shiny and a little more imposing.
2GB onboard storage
Mediocre call quality

A few weeks ago we got hold of the Xperia Miro for review and we quickly posted up our initial impressions. The Miro is one of the entry level devices from Sony and in the same way as with the Tipo we reviewed a while back, I was amazed that it came...
Overall the Miro is a great phone; for the target market anyway. It can be picked up on contract with Vodafone starting at £13 per month and on payg for £130 again on Vodafone. It’s also available Sim Free from about £170 If the screen had been a...

Fantastic battery life; Pretty, solid design; Bright screen
Stuttery performance
Expert review by : Simon Thomas (3g.co.uk)
The Sony Xperia Miro proves a neat mid-range handset that is hindered by its low-powered chip. The Android Ice Cream sandwich OS does not run smoothly, while surfing the net is stuttery. Look for a handset at the same price that includes a dual-core...
Amazing battery life; neat design; Bright display
Juddery performance
The Sony Xperia Miro is a neat mid-range handset that is hindered by its low-powered chip. The operating system does not run smoothly, and surfing the net is a stuttery affair too. We’d suggest you look at handsets of a similar price that benefit from...

Sony currently have quite a few devices for sale, especially at the bottom end of the pile. The Miro being one of them, it is like the Tipo's bigger brother, costing a little more and packing a slightly better spec. My initial good and bad points are...
Overall I like the Miro as Sony have fixed a lot of the problems I had with the Tipo (mainly due to screen size). It seems like a great phone for someone who hasn’t used Android before or just wants a cheap capable phone. Over the next few weeks I will...

We take a look at Sony's quirky mid-range smartphone
The Sony Xperia Miro is an interesting handset. It's quirky design stands-out amidst a sea of black brick styled handsets and its Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system means users could see an update to Google's Android 4.1 Jelly Bean...
