Yeah, Xperia UI is the lightest, fastest, and prettiest UI. Touchwiz is nothing. Beware, 4.4 Kitkat didn't allow some apps to write data on Micro SD due to Google SD Restriction, it need root to allow apps write data on SD card.

    When it says bootloader unlocked allowed: YES that means we can root and unlocking the bootloader.
    I don't interesting to install custom rom on this device coz it already has high os (jelly bean) and beautiful UI, all want to do is installing Titanium back up.

    No BE... Ok no problem.

          annette, 16 Apr 2014would moving from Sony Experia Go to a E1 be considered an upgrade or a downgrade?Upgrade in OS version, Processor, Display and Audio but Downgrade in Camera and Xperia E1 is waterproof-less.

Yes, you can install Titanium Backup and restore your data on it. Unfortunately, Xperia E1 doesn't have BME2 or even Triluminos and X-Reality.

                  Hey, how do I know this phone is root-able or not?
                  One very important thing about rooting (for me) is so I can install Titanium back up app.
                  It can back up app+data(and saved game) cool app :-)
                  One more thing, does this phone has Bravia Engine?
                  Coz Sony album and movie app without BE seems to be not cool :-(

Yes, if you turn on CP and CA+ on, it will sacrifice the loudness to produce more clean and clear audio quality than usual but not that quite, though. Clear Audio will filter the Noise and Clear Phase will reduce sound distortion.

                          Hi, friends i want to ask something, this phone has clear phase feature right? Does that clear phase feature will sacrifice sound volume when we enable it? (I mean sound will reduce when we enable it) please correct me if I am wrong.
                          Can somebody also explain me the different between clear audio and clear phase ?

                          Thank You.

                            Xperia E1 was really superb low-end device. It has clear and loud audio quality and in several benchmark test, it managed to beat Xperia M, Xperia L, Xperia Z, SGS4 Mini, and Oppo Find 5 (take a look at Xperia E1 Benchmark Result)

                                      Moto G Could Be much better option in terms of Price n Specs.(1GB Ram/720P Video/5MP Camera/Snapdragon 400)

                                        I don't understand why people just go drooling over mediatek chipset devices?
                                        I used a Micromax Canvas 2(Dual Core+512 MB RAM). My brother's Xperia E(1GHZ Single Core+ 512 MB RAM) was smoother and faster than mine in many aspects.

                                        So when guys you see a phone having a snapdragon processor please stop commenting if you prefer mediatek devices. They provide very poor battery backup. In fact the new Broadcom Chipsets Are better than mediatek when it comes to battery life.
                                        Phones using Mediatek chipsets lag like hell. I've seen quad cores lagging worse than my Galaxy Music Duos. Whats the point of using a quad-core if it does not give you the quad-core experience?
                                        Just to make it clear. Please dont compare Mediatek with Qualcomm just on the basis of specifications, Its not worth it.
