Sony really-really has lots of Technological advantage at hand. I wonder why they seldom (or didn't) use it at all last year.

I mean, on displays they got:
-X-Reality Pro Picture Engine
-MotionflowXR
-Dynamic Edge LED (Local and Frame Dimming)
-Bravia Engine
-Clear Resolution Enhancer
-White Magic Display
-Timescape UI+

on cameras:
-Exmor
-Exmor R (yes, those 2 are different)
-Bionz Image Processor

on audio:
-S-Master MX
-xLoud
-S-Force Front Surround
-Clear Phase


Where they having a hard time making these available to Mobile?... They could really rocked the market if they did so. :(

Hopefully, Xperia Z and ZL is the start.

hi...gsm arena and followers

viewing angle is only important to whoever beside us to see what we are seeing...

it is about privacy...

do you use your samsung, nokia and apple phones to make others know what you are typing / watching / surfing ?????? only kids do this !!!!!

it is the direct sunlight legibility which shall be the issue...

viewing angle for sure is very important for those kids .....

please grow up !!!!!

why play station portable viewing angle is clear ????

to gsm arena : we used mobile phone only for ourselves...
we watch movie on television all togeteher...not alone right !!!!

gsm arena : please stop this nonsense topics "viewing angle" on mobile phones....please compare viewing angle on television....

sony oled tv's and samsung oled tv's...

i dare u ...

hoping to hear from you soon...

until now I'm so worry about the quality of SONY Xperia phone, just what happened to previous Xperia Arc S and other..SONY still does't has own task-manager and file-manager.

> In reply to [deleted post]I am sure many people will buy the Galaxy S4. I think the Galaxy S4 has awesome specs, and it will be soon finished. It could have an unbreakable screen, maybe it's even waterproof, and not to mention it's CPU.

Pack with BE color processor to enhanced contrass and makes the color really pop up and vivid. Wet finger tracking on screen also sound nice but will be better to have hover tracking include with this beast. 2330mah power with stamina mode sound really impresive.

Well,you have to count that 1080p displays will increase your data plan,and,besides,is hard to use with one hand.not talking about power consumption.720p os more than enough and as compact as possible to fit in your pocket,aat least my one x does.And,i expected from sony at least Slcd3,and Gorilla glass2 in this price,not their reinforced glass which is way mor easy to scratch than Gorilla,and i'm not talking about marketing bullshits here,but,for this money..want the cutting edge.and not forget about battery,Droid dna put efforts to make hardware consume less power,while sony always suks at battery,even compared to htc.while i think Droid Dna is a better choice,i will stick this year with my one x,i don's see something better around the corner.
