Another New Comers is Sony's Xperia Ion..More Superb!!!


Sony Xperia Ion Unveiled at CES 2012 & this is Sony's not Sony Ericsson

During the first day of CES 2012, Sony wasted no time in announcing their most recent Android smartphone, the Sony Xperia Ion. It is easy to fall in love with this phone—considering it hooks up into the 4G LTE network of AT&T. But apart from its network connectivity, there is much to adore about the smartphone. Even without a hands-on look at the unit, its specs have surely gained the attention of many people; most especially because it has a 12MP camera and an uber thin design.
As for the camera, it was actually pretty typical of Sony (yes, they are now rebranded as Sony) to produce smartphones equipped with a high quality camera. Because they get to put a clear definition on the very thin line between smartphones and digital cameras, there are so many people who are attracted to the brand.
Other specs include a 4.6-inch screen display, HDMI-out, plus an interface for a TV launcher. Out of all the other Xperia models, the Ion had a roomy display. It also has a 1280×720 display that makes use of Sony’s Mobile Bravia Engine. While only a few details have been given about this engine, we do suspect it is the same technology as to Sony’s line of Bravia TVs.
Moreover, the Xperia Ion comes with a compatible dock that enables larger display viewing. This is highly similar to Motorola’s webtop experience which is the product of the Atrix 2, Droid Razr, and Droid Bionic. When attached to a TV, users have the ability to play music, view photos and even send out SMS messages from the Xperia Ion to the TV. Sony also stated that the phone can be controlled using any TV remote.

A release date and price on the Xperia Ion is yet to be announced by Sony.

Presenting the new Xperia S


The Sony press conference has just finished and Sir Howard Stringer and Kaz Hirai of Sony have shared with us not only the new gadgets Sony is presenting at the 2012 International CES, but also announced the new Xperia™  S, the first  smartphone from the new Xperia™  NXT series-  the next generation smartphones from Sony*.
The new Xperia™  S is an Android smartphone that combines an impressive viewing experience through the high resolution 4.3 inch display with Mobile BRAVIA engine, a 12 MP camera that takes pictures in just 1.5 seconds from standby, and an amazing Sony HD experience. Xperia™  S also has a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor for a faster performance. Watching HD clips and movies is really a great experience on this phone. And I can’t wait to try out HD games on it!
Xperia™  S also enables an easy connectivity experience with multiple screens, so that you can access, share and enjoy content on the screen that suits the situation: TV, smartphone, laptop or tablet.  We have talked about the increased connectivity between different screens before, and with Xperia™  S we will see more about the possibilities of sharing and accessing content easily, including NFC (near field communication), as Xperia™  S is NFC enabled.
Also, Xperia™  S will be able to access easily to the entertainment content from Sony Entertainment Network, such as Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited (in the countries where the services are available).  You can check if your country already has the services here.
Here is an overview of the key features for Xperia™  S:
  • 4.3 inch Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA® Engine with HD resolution screen (1280 x 720), as well as front (720p) and back (1080p) cameras for HD recording.
  • 1.5GHz dual-core processor for fast browsing and content download, which can be stored on the internal 32GB flash storage.
  • 12MP back camera with Sony Exmor R™ for mobile along with Fastest Capture to take shots in just 1.5 seconds directly from standby mode.  Front-facing camera with 1.3 MP.
  • NFC (Near Field Communications) enabled to access growing range of NFC applications and services as well as Xperia SmartTags.
  • With HD sharing through DLNA, HDMI and using BRAVIA Sync for controlling your Xperia S with your TV remote control when connected to the TV, Xperia™  S delivers a full HD experience on TV.
  • PlayStation™ Certified, that guarantees a high quality smartphone gaming experience and access to the PlayStation® Store.
Also, the first things that I really liked about the Xperia™  S (apart from the great features we have already presented), from a first view, are the new design and the UI.
Xperia™  S is the first smartphone that showcases a new design approach referred as “Iconic Identity”. You will be able to see this new design throughout the Xperia™  NXT series, and it creates a simple look that is instantly recognizable. One of the main elements of the new design is the transparent element at the base of the phone. It creates an iconic silhouette, emphasizing the display, and also provides illumination effects and integrates the antenna components.
One of the main things I have always loved from Sony Ericsson is the User Interface. And for the Xperia™  NXT series, I think I will keep on liking it!  The user Interface has been redesigned to match the minimalistic design of the hardware. The home screen has a new colorful flow background making full usage of HD Reality Display and dual-core processing power.
Xperia™  S will be available to consumers globally from the first quarter 2012. Launching on Android platform 2.3 (Gingerbread) Xperia™  S will be upgraded to Android platform 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) during the second quarter 2012.
Check out this video to know more about the Xperia™  S! And don’t miss more information about this launch, and all what is happening in the 2012 International CES this week on this blog! We have great things in store!
