Sony Xperia “P” and “U” announced

Sony has taken the wraps of another two phones in it’s Xperia range. The two phones are spec’d lower than the soon to be released Xperia S and are aimed at the mid range market or probably slightly above for the “P”

Both phones have nearly exactly the same form factor as the bigger Xperia S and basically look like identical but smaller versions.
