CES 2013: Sony Xperia Z and Xperia ZL hands-on

07 January 2013
In 2012, Sony found itself behind the pace, offering its first dual-core droids just a few weeks before the competition switched to quad-core architectures. Keen to catch up... Update: hands-on videos added

                    If sony carries on releasing amazing phones like this, samsung will have some serious competition this year

                      I'm getting myself one of these. The Asus Padfone 2 was such a disappointment.

                            Sony's new phone naming convention seems to have some resemblance to Sony VAIO laptop names.

                            Xperia Z corresponding to Sony's top of the line VAIO Z series.
                            Xperia T to high-end VAIO T Series.
                            Xperia S to VAIO S Series.
                            Xperia E to cheap economical VAIO E series.

                            But, don't have any idea about other models.
                            It's just some coincidence or a strategy by Sony to streamline its products.
                            Whatever, SONY is doing great at present and I wish the company to be at the top again.

                                I think the knowledge of making best TV screens with perfect color now showing in SONY phones too.
                                I am going to buy another sony xperia SL...also price is perfect.
                                why should someone pay 50pc high price for samsung or apple for same thing.

                                    how good it would be if htc, samsung, and sony merge. sony will bring in the class factor, samsung the specs, and htc the beautiful screens that are superior to exaggerated super amoleds.
