Sony Remembers Its SmartWatch, Pushes Out A Software Update
There has been so much buzz about SmartWatches lately, I’m a little dizzy. I mean, watches are worn to look smart, professional yada yada. But if the latest rumours have it their way, watches could as well become another face feeding us information. You know, it’s too annoying to have to take the phone out…

The Xperia SP is a mid-ranger, and comes with a dual core Krait processor alongwith a 720p display. The Xperia L is an entry-level smartphone, with a WVGA resolution display and a single core 1 GHz processor. While both the phones look attractive, they’re a…

SGS4 camera samples appear on Google+, confirm 1/3″ 13MP sensor
Published on 21 Feb, 2013 at 22:04 in News | | 45 Comments
I accidentally came across a couple of images that were supposedly taken earlier today using Samsung’s next flagship phone – the Galaxy S4. EXIF data mentions model as GT-I9500 which possibly corresponds to SGS4.
Both images are in 16:9 format and have a resolution of 4128 x 2322 that is roughly 9.6MP. However a 13MP sensor will also take pictures in similar resolution in Auto mode because the viewfinder can only utilize full screen in 16:9…

Sony Announces Xperia T, TX, V, J Smartphones, And Xperia Tablet S
That’s right. Sony just announced Xperia T, V and J – three new Android smartphones, running Ice Cream Sandwich, and an Android tablet, Xperia Tablet S. Xperia branding all around, which is a good thing. But they’ve been unloading tons of devices, and have announced nearly 17 smartphones in 2012, excluding the carrier-specific versions. Rants aside, here’s the deal – Xperia T is the global flagship, while the Xperia…
Sony And Google Will Be Releasing Vanilla Android For The Xperia S As An “Experiment”
Xperia S owners, here’s a solid reason for you to rejoice! Google’s Jean-Baptiste Query, aka JBQ, who’s responsible for maintaining the Android Open Source Project, has announced that the two companies will be releasing stock, plain, vanilla, untouched, unadulterated Android for the Xperia S.

Look what we have here. Another day, another spec bump, and a new launch. Sony’s planning to launch the Xperia SL, based off the Xperia S, but with the specs that the latter should have had from first.

Xperia P owners, rejoice! Sony is pushing out the much-awaited-and-already-stale Ice Cream Sandwich update, bringing ICS speed and neatness and lot of other new apps.

Xperia T leaks ahead of launch, Dual core, ICS and 13MP camera
Another phone from Xperia NXT series has “leaked”. This time there are plenty of pictures to show how the device looks and feel. Sony LT30i “Mint” or the Xperia T is a 4.3″ droid with an ugly design.
Sony Xperia Ion HSPA, Xperia Miro, Xperia Tipo And Xperia Tipo Dual Announced
Boom. Sony just announced four new Android smartphones today – Xperia Ion HSPA’s a high end smartphone, the Xperia Miro is a low mid-ranger and the tipo and tipo dual are low-end smartphones. Sony can’t stop trolling us enough. As far as my memory serves, they have launched/announced about a dozen smartphones in the past 4-5 months itself. Classic example of an Asian company.
Sony Pushing The ICS Update For Xperia Arc And Neo
