The rest of the specs include 8GB of expandable storage, an 8MP rear cam with a LED flash, and a super thin body at 7.6mm. Sony Xperia C3 is 4G-enabled and supports LTE Cat4. There’s also a dual-SIM model dubbed Sony Xperia C3 Dual, which supports not only dual-standby, but dual-call too. The highlight feature of the Sony Xperia C is its front-facing 5MP camera with wide 25mm lens. It comes with a front “soft” LED flash, something we definitely don’t see every day. The front camera features Superior Auto mode just like the regular one, although it seems to lack autofocus.Sony Xperia C3 will be available in white, black and mint colors starting in August. The first market to get it is China, but it will spread worldwide shortly after. The pricing is yet to be announced.” via gsmarena.com
