Sony launches Xperia miro, tipo and tipo dual with Android 4.0

Sony has announced the latest additions to its Xperia series in the form of Xperia miro, Xperia tipo and Xperia tipo dual. Thanks to the company's Facebook campaign, the Xperia miro came out of the closet almost 9 days ahead of its announcement.

The Xperia miro comes pre-loaded with Android 4.0, a 5MP rear shooter, a front-facing VGA camera and a 3.5-inch display. It is powered by an 800MHz Snapdragon processor with 512 MB RAM and has 3GB on-board memory expandable up to 32GB via microSD card.

It also features customisable illuminations and Facebook integration. The smartphone will be available in shades of black, gold, pink and silver.

On the other hand, the Xperia tipo and tipo dual are budget Android smartphones with Ice Cream Sandwich on-board. They boast a 3.2-inch TFT display supporting a 480x320 pixel resolution. The Xperia tipo dual offers dual-SIM support, where users can switch SIMs with just a single touch. It also comes with Sony's xLOUD technology for an enhanced audio experience. The tipo comes in colour options of black, white, red and blue while the tipo dual is restricted to black and white.

There are no details on pricing or availability for any of new launches.
