Sony just announced the Xperia E4 and E4 dual, two new budget smartphones ahead of MWC 2015 after several leaks. These have a 5-inch qHD IPS display and are powered by a 1.3 GHz quad-core MediaTek SoC, compared to Snapdragon 400 in the Xperia E3 and E3 dual that were introduced at the IFA last year. These run on Android 4.4 (KitKat), have a 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera.

The Xperia E4 dual has new dual SIM technology that lets users set custom ringtones and the dual SIM management technology keeps both SIMs active, so that you never miss a call, even when talking on one of them. The 2300 mAh battery with Battery STAMINA Mode promises 2 days of battery life. The curved design of these new E4 and E4 dual smartphones is different from earlier E series smartphones.
