For those over in the good old US of A, who might be in the market for a mid-tier Android smartphone, and have been considering picking up the Sony Xperia ion from AT&T, but not too sure whether they should do so, or opt for another Android handset of which there are many, perhaps a nice long in-depth review of the Xperia ion will go some way to helping you make up your mind.

Thus that is what we have for your viewing pleasure below, an in-depth two-part video review of the Sony Xperia ion, which comes our way courtesy of Aaron Baker over at Phone Dog that jointly delivers just over seventeen minutes of checking out what the Xperia ion has to offer the user.

So we’ll kick things off with a quick spec reminder, the Sony Xperia ion sports a 4.5-inch HD Reality Display, a 12 megapixel rear facing camera, 1080p video, a front facing camera, a 1.5GHz Snapdragon S3 processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB internal storage, microSD expansion, 4G LTE connectivity, Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system, 1900mAh battery, Timescape UI, and according to Sony is upgradeable to Android Ice Cream Sandwich, and Sony’s first LTE smartphone.

The Sony Xperia ion is available on AT&T for $99.99 when signing on for the usual two-year agreement, but is the Xperia ion the Android smartphone to suit your needs? Well you should know by now, I’m not here you make up your mind, but rather let you head on down and hit that play button so you can make that decision for yourself.
