Hi

I am a fan of SONY and I know that most mobile phones of sony has usb host (otg) functionality

I am waiting for the M4 aqua dual (LTE) to be my next phone. but i have a question. is this phone has otg support?

in the backup and restore section of the manual of the M4 Aqua has written that :
"With this application you can back up the following types of data to an SD card or to an external USB storage device that you have connected by the USB Host adapter to your device"

but if you watch this video, it says that it has not otg functionality

so, is this phone support otg or not? please explain completely.

if you have a retail one, can you test it and let me know?

thank you

I was waiting for this device since March 2015.

Dual SIM is available in India. I checked up with a retail unit & NO.... it does not support OTG.

I am disappointed. Sony's white paper lists USB Mass Storage but NO, it does not support OTG.
