Sony Xperia E1 goes on sale in Europe, direct from Sony for as little as €119

The Sony Xperia E1, the 4-inch Android phone with a 100db speaker, is now on sale throughout Europe. Purchasing through Sony's online store will cost £159 in the UK, though Amazon UK and Handtec are each selling the phone for £119. Prices in the rest of Europe range from €119 in Italy, €139 in Germany and France, and go as high as €199 in Spain.

Budget smartphones are a big deal these days. Nokia is pushing the low end with their Nokia X line while Motorola has seen tremendous success with the Moto G. The Xperia E1 is Sony's attempt to squeeze in on that market, and while it doesn't match the Moto G spec-for-spec, it still seems like it would be a decent phone.
