Looks that never get old

The Xperia™ E3 makes a style statement right out of the box. Sharing the same design as Sony’s new
flagship phones, the Xperia™ E3 is a smartphone you can be happy to hold. Slim and light, it’s designed
to be easy to use with just one hand. Choose bright white, sharp black or the new bold lime. Now fast
forward a few months. Where your friends’ phones are showing wear, yours is still showing off. The
corners on the Xperia™ E3 are designed to prevent nicks and colour chipping in case of an unexpected
bump. Thanks to a scratch-resistant screen made of durable tempered glass, your smartphone keeps
looking smarter for longer.

Attention-grabbing features

Forget ‘standard’. Every detail of the Xperia™ E3 is there to set you apart. Sony’s uniquely creative
camera apps add more fun and interaction to your photo taking. Download AR Fun to mix reality with 3D
effects that change as you move the camera. Capture even the fastest moves with Timeshift burst. Or use
“Social live” to send videos live to Facebook. Got your friends’ attention? Now wow them with a sleight of
hand. With a simple flick of the wrist, you can launch the camera or open Facebook. Gesture control gives
you the power to control your phone – and impress your friends – in all new ways.

Entertainment in full gear

A car chase in your pocket. The latest dance song in your hand. Sony’s exclusive media apps give you
access to some of the world’s best entertainment. And the Xperia™ E3 gives you a VIP pass, with the kind
of out-of-the-box entertainment package that only Sony can deliver. 4G networks and a Quad-core
processor mean your movies, songs and games load in an instant and run without irritating interruptions.
Think the party may go all night? The Xperia™ E3 has a powerful, long-lasting battery and also Battery
STAMINA Mode, so you can keep the fun streaming in.
