Sony adds new handset to Xperia series

Sony has added yet another handset to its already huge Xperia series, Fudzilla reports.

The Xperia SL is a basically a refreshed Xperia S, with a slight speed bump and a new OS.

Like its predecessor, the SL is also based on a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 processor, but this time it is clocked at 1.7GHz. It retains the same 4.3-inch 720p screen and 12-megapixel camera. Unlike the S, the SL ships with ICS out of the box.
