The Xperia U will be running Android 2.3 Gingerbread, but Sony has confirmed it will receive an update to Ice Cream Sandwich later in the year. This budget Android offering will be a strong contender in the low-priced market.

PROS: Cheap in Price, Great Camera(5mp), Light Weight, Music Phone( Sony 3D surround sound audio technology)

CARZOR - A RAZOR IN YOUR WALLET

2012-04-07T23:48:00.000+05:30

This travel razor comes with its own mirror and will fit in your wallet, since it folds flat like a credit card. The blades can be removed and stashed away (so they don’t cut up your money?) It doesn’t come with any shaving cream, but I suppose it will do in a bind. And that glide strip is changeable of different scents.

Sony Xperia Sola " New Floating Touch"

2012-03-15T21:56:00.001+05:30

The Xperia sola is also equipped with a 3.7” Reality Display, a 1GHz dual-core processor, xLOUD and 3D surround sound, a 5MP camera with a 16x digital zoom, 720p video recording, DLNA, and Google Android 2.3 (upgradable to version 4.0). As a deluge of mid-range Android-powered devices hit the market, smartphone makers are trying harder to differentiate their devices from the rest. Samsung has developed the Galaxy Beam (a smartphone with a built-in projector), Nokia has shown off a smartphone with a 41 MP camera sensor called the PureView 808, LG has released its second glasses-free 3D device called the Optimus 3D Max, and Japanese mobile provider NTT Docomo has even gone as far as to design a special smartphone case with a built-in breathalyzer. The Sony Xperia sola (which will be called the Xperia sole in Italy and Xperia MT27i in China) will be available globally in the second quarter of 2012. No price has been announced.

Apple has announced its New iPad

2012-03-08T07:48:00.001+05:30

Apple has announced its "The New iPad" .

It features a new retina display with 4x times more pixels of its previous one(iPad 2) and it is achieved by the A5X chip with quad core graphics. The battery life has also been improved as it works for about 10hours :O
Excellent Camera that capture images at 5 megapixels and HD video Recording( full 1080) with advanced lens technology.

Apple says it as iPad and not as iPad 3 no idea about why, anyway it has same design and looks similar to iPad 2 but still the new display, camera and the quad performance will make it stand new. Let us wait for the User Reviews....

BlackBerry 10 leaked images reveal live tiles

2012-02-15T08:47:00.001+05:30

BlackBerry 10 has been missing in action for months, but some images have now leaked on the Web purporting to show the operating system in action.

The blog Crackberry last night posted BlackBerry 10 images it claims to have obtained from a 14-page PDF file prepared by "one of RIM's external ad agency partners". RIM's current generation of BlackBerry devices are included in the images and are all running its upcoming operating system, casting some doubt on their authenticity.

Still, their contents are notable. One image shows the operating system displaying widgets that seem to mimic the functionality of Windows Phone 7's Live Tiles--a feature that has been rumored for quite some time, but never confirmed. In addition, the operating system images show the Folder icon listing some of the apps included in it, eliminating some of the guesswork found in RIM's current operating system.

Ubuntu and other OS's in Windows 7

2012-02-11T23:57:00.000+05:30

I think you must have heard of the term Virtual PC, if not actually it was given free of cost by Microsoft to work with Windows xp within Windows 7 i.e., without restarting the PX just like an application. This actually emulates Windows XP in a Windows 7 desktop.

Now as I previously told about the Ubuntu 11.10 a Free to Use OS and have lot of features all for free. So you can try that using a similar software like Virtual PC. Now here comes the Virtualbox in handy from Oracle, by which you can try the Ubuntu OS. And not only UBUNTU any other OS. Even Windows 8 beta can be tried, and this virtual box is so easy to use. So just go for it.

Sony Xperia S

2012-02-03T09:49:00.000+05:30

Visually, the older device looks a little more enticing with its curvy edges. The new device has dropped the word ‘Arc’ from its name and consequently has none of the curved edges on the older Arc devices.

The Sony Xperia S is a little heavier (144 vs 117g) and larger (4.3 vs 4.2-inch screen) and has much better screen resolution (720 x 1280 pixels against 480 x 854 pixels). The camera is now a 12-megapixel one against the 8-megapixel camera of the preceding device, and it records 1080p video, a step up from the 720p video of the older device.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S runs a 1.4MHz single-core processor against the faster 1.5MHz dual-core processor on the newer device. The newer Xperia S also has double the system memory (1024 vs 512 MB RAM).

On paper alone, the Sony Xperia S outdoes the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S at almost everything, which is about as much as we expect for a newer version of any phone. However, the Android OS 2.3 (Gingerbread) on both devices may prove to be a handicap in a time when its rivals are gearing up with Android OS 4.0 (Ice-Cream Sandwich).

We do expect the Sony Xperia S to be introduced in Malaysia at around RM2000, which is what new Sony flagships cost these days. When it will show up is something we can’t quite tell you yet, but last year the Sony Ericsson Arc was in Malaysia within a month of CES. It makes sense that this will go on sale fairly quickly, before the older Android OS is no longer wanted by consumers.

Apple To Include NFC Technology In Next iPhone

2012-01-31T20:36:00.000+05:30

The iPhone 4S is now three months old, which means the inevitable barrage of rumors and speculation will be hitting our screens in the coming weeks and months regarding future devices from Apple, especially the iPhone 5 and iPad 3. The rumor train shouldn’t come as a surprise, considering it happens with every product release, but as the Apple products gain more popularity around the world, the focus on the rumors intensifies. Popular Apple intelligence site, 9to5Mac are reporting that a conversation between one of their reporters and a well-connected developer at the recent Macworld convention has led them to believe that the next-generation iPhone could contain near field communication, or NFC technology. The developer in question claimed to be building an application which contains the ability to process mobile transactions using the NFC technology, and although he has not officially provided information about the specification of any new hardware release but he believes that after talking to multiple Apple iOS engineers, they are heavily into near field communication.

Sony Ericsson Arc S

2011-12-10T15:09:00.001+05:30

4.2-inch touchscreen, 1.4Ghz processor, 512MB RAM, 1GB storage + microSD slot, 3G, Bluetooth 8MP rear camera, Wi-Fi with hotspot, GPS, FM radio, HDMI, Android 2.3, 1500mAh, 117g Advantages: Stylish, high quality display, excellent video recording, sound output Disadvantages: All-plastic construction, no front camera, expensive, small camera shutter key The Xperia Arc was one of the best Android smartphones when it came out - it combined elegant looks with a great display and superb performance - until the dual core smartphones arrived. To keep up with competition, Sony Ericsson upgraded the Xperia Arc with a better processor, increased internal storage and named it theXperia Arc S.
At first glance, there is absolutely no change in the Arc S compared to the Xperia Arc. It still has a 4.2-inch display powered by Sony's Mobile Bravia engine - looks good on its own, but feels a bit washed out when compared to amoled displays. The phone still has an all plastic body with a glossy finish - and it's a fingerprint magnet. Overall, it still stands out as a stylish device thanks to the slim design. The shutter button on the side is still a tad bit too small for comfort and we feel this should have been fixed in the upgrade on the Arc S. The processor on the Arc S has been upgraded to 1.4Ghz as compared to the 1Ghz on the Arc. Unfortunatly, it is still a single core processor while most competitors at the same price are offering dual core phones. While it's true that the advantage of a dual core processor is visible only with multi-tasking and a few apps, bragging rights are missing. Internal storage has been upgraded to 1GB with support for an additional 32GB via microSD card. Android 2.3 with Timescape UI runs great, though we do think that Sony Ericsson should start preloading some more apps on their phones now. Battery life is the same as other Android smartphones; the phone needs to be charged once every day. Camera performance is average with noise visible in darker areas of most images. Shots taken in lowlight are full of noise unless the flash is used. Other than the sweep panorama mode, the phone also offers a 3D panorama mode to capture 3D images that can be viewed on a 3D capable TV/monitor. It shines with video though - the 720p HD resolution videos are top-notch quality and the LED flash is bright enough to be used as a video light. The sound from the speakers is remarkable thanks to Sony's proprietary xLoud technology. It all boils down to the price and the intense competition. The Arc S would have been great value for money if it was priced under Rs 25,000. For Rs 25,000, you can go for Samsung's Galaxy R Android 2.3 smartphone. It has the same size 4.2-inch display but runs a dual core 1Ghz processor with 8GB storage and a larger 1650mAh battery. If you want something more powerful and can spend around Rs 28,500, go for the Samsung Galaxy S II. It has a very high quality 4.3-inch super amoled plus display, 1.2Ghz dual core processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage, 8MP rear/2MP front camera and a 1650mAh battery.
