Does xperia sp support USB OTG?

Hi,

My question is whether xperia sp support usb OTG or not?

Based on this post USB OTG Support, it is a mixed anwser.

I belive it does support USB OTG, but I didn't try this yet (don't have microUSB adapter), but as I can see in my phone, there are settings that confirm this, but I didn't test it.

I think so, According to my newest researches through internet, I realize that it can support this feature.

Thanks anyway.:smileysmileythumbsup:

@Sonyexplorer : You only need a USB OTG cable and a pendrive to test it. Plug in the OTG cable in the charging port of your xperia sp and on the other end of the cable, plug in a pendrive. Then you need this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anda.otgdisk or any file manager/explorer app installed in your phone to access the pendrive. Hope i helped !

Xperia sp supports usb otg. I have tried it. I do connect my pendrives, Sony h200 digicam etc for media transter and I tried my pc usb keyboard and it worked fine.
I think u can also charge other phones from xsp via usb cabe. That means your phon can also act as a power bank!!!
