IFA 2015 - Sony Xperia Z5 announced


Sony has officially unveiled the three new successors to the flagship Xperia Z lineup . The trio - the Xperia Z5  - a spiritual successor to the Z3+ , Xperia Z5 compact- a compact edition packing good hardware similar to flagship models and the Xperia Z5 Premium - a phone that is set to pack even more punch thanks to its high res screen (and high price tag)

The Sony Xperia Z5 looks just like its predecessor - the Xperia Z3+ ,Although the genetics in Sony's Omnibalence design didnt change much over the years ,the design has been improved and it now features a fingerprint reader which doubles as a power button . The unibody design , high IP ratings and the Xperia Z2'ish dual front speakers are once again present but we won't complain as the phone still is quite a looker .

 Inside the Xperia Z5 we have a new generation Snapdragon 810 , although Qualcomm refined the Snapdragon 810 many times over , there is still a bit of skepticism over how cool things will get when you really start pushing this bad boy to its limits . The Snapdragon 810 - clocked to a reasonable 1.5Ghz is possibly the most thermal efficient version of this 64bit octa core chip yet .The chip is backed up with Adreno 430 GPU and 3GB of RAM . There is now a 32GB option at the base model which marks the end for the 16GB base model present in earlier generations . There is also a Sony stable 5.2" 1080p IPS display .

Sony has also been graceful in making its camera experience a lot better as the new phone features a 23MP rear camera - this new camera module is also another first for the Xperia series as all previous versions from the Z1 to the Z3+ were all stuck at 20.7 MP .The new model has a F2.0 Aperture a 24mm focal equivalence and 120fps on 720p and 4K video recording .The module can shoot 23MP in 4:3 and 20MP in 16:9 aspect ratio . a front facing 5 mp shooter is present on the Xperia Z5

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa...
