ST26i/ST26a specifications

The Sony ST26i, also known as the Sony Xperia J, is a smartphone that was released in the latter part of 2012. It was part of Sony’s Xperia series and aimed at more budget-conscious consumers while still providing core features found in higher-end models at that time.

This display provides vibrant colors and decent viewing angles, making it suitable for casual browsing, social media, and video consumption.

The Xperia J is powered by a 1GHz single-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 processor, which was complemented by 512MB of RAM. While the hardware may seem modest by today’s standards, it was optimized to run the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system. Additionally, the device was upgradable to Android Jelly Bean, offering users access to improved performance and features.

In terms of storage, the Xperia J comes with 4GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via microSD cards up to 32GB. This allows users to store a variety of apps, photos, and videos without hassle. The device also features a 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, capable of recording video in 720p HD.
