Does Xperia U have a build in FM transmitter

[#1]

Hi All,

According to a multitude of websites the Xperia U is supposed to have a build in FM transmitter. Is this true?

I have been through "all" the settings in the phone and I have search the web, however no-joy on how to enable the transmitter.

On the user manual refer to page 91/92 which gives info on the radio

Hi Suze,

From this it does not appear that the Xperia U has a FM transmitter even though many of the phone spec. sites claims that it does.

So will show my ignorance now, what do you need an FM transmitter for? Sorry I wasn't able to help you any more.

a FM transmitter??

do you not mean a receiver?

I have an FM receiver app to listen to the radio but you want a Walki-talki like function?

it doesn't have an FM transmitter, it has a FM antenna.

you can always buy a 3rd party FM transmitter

Hi All,

The need for the FM transmitter (in my case) is that when driving I like to listen to audiobooks or podcasts stored on my phone. With the FM transmitter, I can just tune the car stereo and there’s your sound

I guess this is no one’s fault but my own for not doing even better research, but kind’a trusted the phone sites when they presented the feature list. With multiple sites and all...

Sure this isn't one of those hidden features, where the “chip” is there, only there is no app. for it?

doubt it the 2010 flagship lacked FM radio and camera flash but other cheap 2010 xperias had this features.

the 2011 Xperias flagships had camera flash and FM radio but lacked NFC sensors.
