The Sony Xperia TL, the US-variant of the Japanese company’s flagship smartphone, can be picked up for as low as $0.01 on AmazonWireless or for free through Best Buy. The device houses a 13MP primary camera and it features various HD entertainment attributes.
Touted as the official ‘Bond Phone,’ the smartphone is marketed elsewhere as the Xperia T. It made an appearance in the country back in October and went live for purchase earlier this month. The device flaunts a 1280 x 720p resolution 4.6-inch TFT HD touchscreen Reality display through which the Android ICS platform is portrayed. A 1.5GHz MSM8960 processor from Qualcomm is deployed with the handset for smooth functioning and there’s even an Adreno 225 GPU and 1GB of RAM for running demanding applications. Owners will have 16GB of built-in storage and a microSD card slot for extended hoarding capacity.
The rear-facing 13MP camera can record videos in 1080p FHD and owing to its Sony Exmor R sensor, quality images can be clicked in low-light conditions. There’s also a 1.3MP front-facing snapper for chatting and capturing 720p footage. With 4G LTE network support, users will be able to browse the web and download content. While NFC enables one-touch connectivity, DLNA places itself as a convenient method for wireless streaming and MHL compatibility can mirror the device’s display onto an HDTV.
Those looking forward to owning the Sony Xperia TL can head over to AmazonWireless and purchase it for $0.01 or pick it up for free through Best Buy. A post on Android Police points out the said price for the former is applicable on new subscriptions or upgrades. AT&T is currently offering the smartphone for $99.99 with a 2-year contract, $349.99 on a 1-year agreement or $449.99 with a month-to-month subscription. A voice and data plan is required with each of the aforementioned options.
