Anonymous, 05 Jun 2018Foxconn has quality? How about iphone 6 bendgate? Please understand the foxconn is just manufacture. Where all the components are sticked together. Like when Sony camera is made by Carl Zeiss etc. Most of the parts comes from many different companies at foxconn they are just melted together to make a working device.
Reason Iphone 6 was a failuer was due to materials used.
Like HTC u 11 bended like cheving gum. Or Nextbit Robit the worst phone ever made.
It have nothing to do with foxconn they stick all materials together but every piece of them is made by someone and somewhere else i mean brand and country.

Anonymous, 05 Jun 2018Of course it would cost more.
1) Xiaomi has employees i... moreMan even a Sony phones are made by foxconn which produces 40% of tottal cell phone production globally. Foxconn is chinese.
1) Xiaomi has employees in China and India, they are cheaper than employees in Sweden/Japan. This is true but what Sweden have to do with Sony?
Even a Xiaomi have shops in europe, africa, soon america as well just for example Germany. I dont believe that usual 2500 salary per month in germany isnt given to a shopkeeper at xiaomi store in germany. Your point is of no use.
2) Sony does not earn money with adds on chinese UI like Xiaomi. This is a pure LIE. Sony earns by advertising. Sony advertising is everywhere in case of Xiaomi you will barely find any. I am from Slovakia and there are no advertising about Xiaomi but a Quiote lot about Sony. Also Xiaomi does only cell phones where Sony does TVs, Audio, Hifi, Videorecorders, Cds, DVDs recorders etc. large quantit& of products but with equal quality as Xiaomi.
3) Sony sell devices in much more locations. There are costs with transport, distribution, costumer service etc. Man this is pure lie. Xiaomi is 4th in Marketshare being left behind by Huawei 3 Apple 2 and Samsung dominates in sales globally. But xiaomi is almost everywhere. Same like Sony. Xiaomi have same expenses. Only main reason they prove better that in case of Sony you pay from 20 to 50% extra price just for a Sony sticker on its device like is some remarkable brand. Which was like 5-8 years ago. Now they arent on top 10 and soon we wont find them in top 20 ladder of best selling cell hpone brands.
Even Oppo is 5th and Behind China and India you will barely find Oppo.
Here in my country in Slovakia if i say Oppo 99,9% out of 1000 people will have no clue what that is.
4) Sony does not use cheap parts. (Dont believe to everything you read) As i said in number 1 Most of the Sony phones are made by Foxconn thats a well known fact. Which is a chinese company known for its super low expenses and people working like a slaves
16-18 hours every single day with a 10 minutes breaktime for lunch for a wages big such as 0,20 eurocents per worker and 0,70 up to 1 euro a day per shift manager. (This is a not popular knowing but its a truth and 100% real fact)
5) Sony adds tech from other divisions while Xiaomi copies Apple
In present days all copy apple even a Sony do. But Sony does the same old fashioned design which got out of modern era and thus is not impresive to have. main reaqson their phones does not sells as they did long time before when Sony Z dominates the market.
Not all device copy Apple and even Apple copy Samsung using their amoled inmstead of retina and so on. Its like to said bought or shared technology. People are lack of own ideas and thus everybody copy everybody.
Like when Co-founder of Motorola Martin Cooper back in 1972 created first cell phone able to save 9 numbers and with a battery which lasted 30 minutes on a single charge. It was a cell phone weighting staggering 9 kilos. Soon after one of his so called friends left his company and run own bussiness. And so we have a competition othervise Motorola should dominated markets and all the cellphones should be single branded.
But that not the case and we have much over 300 mobile phone brands. From which most of them died or are barelly swimming in a pacific ocean dominated by Samsung Aple Huawei Xiaomi and Oppo which sells like 75-80% of all the cell phones per annum.
Thus to my personal records and knowledge. Congrats you read it this far.

They're the leader in mirrorless cameras. People sticking to Nikon and Canon are all living in the past. Apart from a better lens selection, there's no reason to go Nikon and Canon anymore. Sony with mirrorless technology can output same quality but with half the equipment size.

What is Zeiss doing with a non-Nokia device? Speaking of which, what happened to "Carl" of Carl-Zeiss lenses that made Nokia synonymous with phone cameras back then?

its kinda cool, but not F1.8 and the ever increasing price is just crazy.
say if it was a F1.8 24-200mm camera (which is probably not physically possible) then 1200USD would have made sense, because it would be incredible.
but as it stands, either get the previous version or get the panacanikon (yay) options for WAY cheaper lol and not really worse

They had notebooks knowns as a Sony Vaio and they died because for very high price they offered a very low specs.
Sony cameras or mobile phones are the same.
Same camera genuinely same made by xiaomi would cost 30-40% of Sony price.
Or a Mi8 Explorer made by Sony would cost 1500 thus the value of Sony sticker on a device but a same quality made by Foxconn world largest cellphone manufacturer making around 40% of total world production of mobilephones.

Anonymous, 05 Jun 2018Sony has awesome professional cameras. Not as good as Nikon or Cannon.
Sony does almost everything thus the price is outrageous.
Compared to Cannon or Nikon who do cameras only.
Like Sony Vaio their notebook department which is died now.
This going same way apart from super high price its not worth the money any of their device.
Maybe for half.
Mi 8 Explorer made by Sony would cost like 1500.

Mr , 05 Jun 2018Why do you need an App? Gsmarena works perfect on smartphon... moreYes it does but an app is much more organised than website. No profile pic/avatar is a bit awkward now.
I would like to get notifications from GSMArena whenever a new article comes. That would be much better.
Beebom, Android Authority and many more got an app but obviously GSMArena is my favourite (no matter how slow they are haha), I still love GSMArena so...yeah, demanding for something reliable is not wrong.

I have a question for GSMArena, since I am a long time user, this question is obvious for me to ask.
Many tech related websites has already released an app. When are you guys making one? Please. Make one and launch it. I would be the first one to install it lol.
