Sony Xperia E1 Dual Benchmarks
Sony Xperia E1 Dual is a surprise entrant in the lower mid-range segment in India.

So how does the Xperia E1 fare in comparison to all these phones and does it have enough fire power to stand out in an overcrowded segment.

The Competition
1. Nokia X

Quadrant Score Comparison
The Sony Xperia E1 Dual scored 5390 on Quadrant which is very respectable score and higher than the Xperia M, the Galaxy S Duos 2 as well as the quad-core XOLO Q1000 Opus.
AnTuTu Score Comparison
The AnTuTu score of the Xperia E1 Dual is also a shocker and here too it bested some of its competition with a score of 12369.
NenaMark 2 Score Comparison
Xperia E1 Dual scored 55.4 FPS on NenaMark2 which again goes to show that the internals as well Android 4.3 Jelly Bean are certainly working hard to keep the phone performing great.
Vellamo HTML5 and Metal
Here too the Xperia E1 Dual didn't falter and scored an impressive 1849 on Vellamo HTML 5 and 474 on the Metal test. These too are segment leading scores, fitting in quite well with even quad-core alternatives.
Linpack
We got a score of 75.19 MFlops on the Linpack Single Thread test and 122.22 on the multi-thread test, again good scores throughout.
Mutitouch Test
The display on the Sony Xperia E1 Dual supports 2 points of touch.
Conclusion
The Xperia E1 Dual performed brilliantly well in our benchmarking review, it got top scores among all the benchmark tests including Quadrant, AnTuTu, Vellamo, NenaMark 2 and others. With good build quality, a good display and a loud speakerphone it could have been the best choice in this segment if priced a bit lower since it just has a 3.1 MP fixed-focus camera and no front-camera, which has now become the norm.
