Xperia E1 for music lovers

MANILA, Philippines - Sony Philippines has announced its new smartphone for music lovers, the Xperia E1.

The Xperia E1 is Sony’s new, music-focused player in the Xperia line-up that brings the brand’s leading audio technologies together with expertise in display, design, and performance content to create the “best smartphone in its class.”

“Xperia E1 combines the best of Sony’s audio technologies with a premium design and great hardware to create a smartphone for people who want to express themselves out loud. Known for our penchant for regular videoke sessions and singing competitions, Filipinos are the perfect people to enjoy Xperia E1,” said Vincent de la Cruz, assistant manager for mobile communications.

The best in its class

Xperia E1 is a mid-tier smartphone with seriously premium credentials. A solid feel, fast processor and vivid four-inch display combined with fast data speeds provide an all-round performance unrivalled by any other phone in its class, while its audio experience and content offer provides real differentiation.

Great music everywhere

Sony’s audio heritage can be clearly heard in Xperia E1 as key technologies come together with the 100Db (with 100Db on your Xperia E1, even a motorcycle won’t interrupt your music) speaker to produce a louder, cleaner sound that can hold its own in any environment.

With ClearAudio+ mode, instantly enhance your listening experience and optimize the balance of frequencies while xLOUD ensures that your tracks sound as good as they should — loud and crystal clear.

Intuitive Walkman controls

Sony’s Walkman technology hails from more than 30 years of premium audio experiences and Xperia E1 builds on this. Shake-to-shuffle controls and a dedicated “long press to launch” Walkman button ensure that loading and navigating your tracks is easier, while the latest generation of Sony’s Walkman app makes short work of combining on and offline music, creating playlists, as well as playing and sharing tracks.

Crystal-clear 4” display

All of this is controlled from the vivid four-inch touch screen. Drawing on Sony’s background in TV technology, Xperia E1 incorporates expertise from across Sony’s digital display technologies to provide an immersive visual experience. Whether watching movies or viewing photos, the display looks both vibrant and clear.

The heart of your Sony experience

Xperia E1 connects via Bluetooth to Sony’s extended eco system so whether it’s through the SBH20 stereo Bluetooth headset for those who prefer to keep their music to themselves or the Bluetooth music receiver BM10 for those who need an even louder experience, Xperia E1 remains at the heart of your connected Sony music experience.

Dual SIM, no compromise

Also available is a new dual SIM smartphone, a variant of Xperia E1 which offers a new experience through the incorporation of Sony’s latest generation of dual SIM technology. You can set up both SIM cards independently with custom ringtones and instant, simple switching between SIMs before making calls or sending texts, while Sony’s dual SIM management technology means that you can keep both SIMs active, never missing a call, even when talking on one of them.

The Xperia E1 is available starting this March in all Sony Centers, Xperia shops and Vaio shop for an SRP of P6,990 for single SIM and P7,890 dual SIM.
