Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo to hit the shops in the next few weeks..

Sitting in the middle of Sony Ericsson’s Xperia range, and offering a slightly smaller screen than the range-topping models, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo has a lot to offer. It has loads of decent features, and is set to hit the shops in the next couple of weeks.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo has been somewhat overshadowed of late, with its siblings – the Xperia Play and the Xperia Arc – taking the limelight.

Despite the relative lack of publicity, we particularly like the look of the Xperia Neo’s screen, which measures in at 3.7 inches and offers a pin sharp 854×480 pixels. As such, it should be able to match the iPhone 4 when it comes to showing off your photos or checking out the web.

Performance should be impressive, with a 1GHz processor powering the Xperia Neo’s Gingerbread operating system. The 8-megapixel camera puts the Neo on par with rivals, and there’s also an LED flash for night time shots.

We were initially expecting the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo to go on sale during April, but production delays mean that the smartphone has slipped off the radar. It’s now expected to ship during the first week of July, so you can expect it to hit the shops soon.
