An Oxford Dictionary blog post states that the word 'selfie' (derived from 'self-portrait') was selected as the Word of the Year 2013. Apparently, there was little to no argument about this decision. It shouldn't be surprising, considering there is even a chartbusting pop song with that title. At the time of writing this review there are reports of a new $20 iPhone case that has a hairbrush extension on the side. Truly, vanity knows no bounds.
With its great front-facing 5-megapixel camera, the Sony Xperia C3 Dual is a great phone for those who love to capture a lot of selfies. The performance ot the 8-megapixel primary camera on the other hand is not too great. All in all, the Xperia C3 Dual is pretty competent and we think it is definitely worth your money.
