Sony has launched a new Xperia smartphone exclusively for Japanese market i.e. Xperia J1 Compact (Model Number – D5788).

Xperia J1 Compact comes with Android 4.4 KitKat out of the box though Sony launched Xperia M4 Aqua and Xperia Z4 Tablet with Android 5.0.2 Lollipop at MWC 2015.

Xperia J1 Compact pre-orders will start by 27 March 2015 and is expected to be available by 20 April 2015. Xperia J1 Compact is expected to be available at price 55,000 yen/$456 (excluding taxes).

Pricing of Xperia J1 Compact seems very reasonable if we compare it to the price of Xperia Z1 Compact initially when it was launched (at higher price.) Xperia J1 Compact is nothing but an affordable compact device with good specifications.
