            ..., 29 Mar 2013didnt xda name sony oem of the yearNope, they just voted against Samsung.
            Ironically you can see by yourself the kind of support Sony has in ROMs such as Cyanogenmod.

            They sure are there in the support list, no doubt about that, but how many of them can actually run the latest version (CM10.1)? I stand my case good sir.

                Sony eying top 3 positions in India. This is one for the markets like India and Brazil were budget phones are in demand. I think the price would be around $350. Sony is bad about one thing. Sony phones battery life is terrible. If this phone comes out with a 5 inch screen size and hopefully decent screen resolution and quad core processor, battery life i think would be 2000 mAH which is not impressive. If its priced aggressively i am game for it.

                    Out of topic thou, but It's about the copycat phones...

                    lest's start up:

                    iPhone5 is a copycat of: Sony Xperia SX SO-05D
                    Blackberry Z10 is a copycat of: iPhone5
                    htc One is a copycat of: Sony Xperia P from the back, and iphone5+Blackberry Z10 from the front.....

                    and now, you all realized that these copycats been stolen from Sony design, as the mentioned model up.
