Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray

Xperia Compact of its time. Xperia Arc S components in a housing not much bigger than the Samsung Star.

This smartphone is absolutely one of the best mobile devices I have ever used. Comfortable form, small size and solid construction made of aluminum, glass and plastic. In addition, the unique appearance and parameters, which which have made it possible to work years after the launch.
The only thing that really made it difficult to use was the built-in memory, which fortunately you can almost skip by creating a partition on the microSD card.

It is a little strange that this Xperia does not have a flash. What is the thing under the camera, then? A lighting lamp. Yes, when taking a picture the device is not able to use the lamp automatically, so you have to manually turn it on before taking the picture and then turn it off. Seriously.
Apart from this one disadvantage, there is no way to be bothered by the operation of this device (taking into account its age).

The visible bright stripe in the upper left corner of the screen is a trace of the LCD screen peeling off the glass. It is likely that this small leakage occurred because of a drop.
