Unique features – ambient illumination, changeability defined by you
Xperia™ U’s uniqueness is style defined by you, starting with ambient illumination of the transparent element design that changes the colour of the phone. Through an intelligent illumination scheme, the colour changes with the colours of the UI theme, the album art of the song playing, and the selected photo in the gallery. Xperia™ U is further customisable with exchangeable caps and covers included in the box.
