SONY XPERIA SOLA WITH FLOATING TOUCH

After the suffering a Devastating Earthquake and a biting Divorce, Sony is now blasting on all Cylinders. Sony wants that that illusive throne of top Smartphone-maker.


An evidence of this determination is the new Xperia Sola. The device was previously known from its codename Pepper. Like other recent xperia phones it does not have the translucent strip near the bottom but the middle of the phone gives the impression that the upper part is floating. Very Unique and Innovative and we expect nothing less from Sony, do we ? Check some specs below:


SCREEN: The screen is a 3.7 inch capacitive unit with Sony Mobile BRAVIA engine. Its Sony's Reality Diplay with a resolution of 480x854 pixels. It features 16 million colours.


CONNECTIVITY: It features 3G(HSDPA,HSUPA), Wifi, NFC, Bluetooth 2.1 and USB 2.0.


MEMORY: The phone comes with 8 gb internal memory, 5 gb of which is available for use. A Microsd slot is provided if you 5 gb not sufficient for you. It has 512 mb ram.


OPERATING SYSTEM AND PROCESSOR: The phone runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread(with an update to 4.0 ICS just around the corner) and a 1 Ghz Dual Core Novathor(coming soon to a cinema near you) Processor.


CAMERA: The camera is a 5 mp unit with autofocus and single LED flash. For video it can record 720p HD video at 30 fps.


FLOATING TOUCH: This is a Unique feature of this phone. For the first time a phone features Floating touch. Now you can use your phone even with gloves.! You can use it just like you do with open fingers. For example, in winters you had to take your gloves off to use your touchscreen phone but with floating touch you can use it without freezing your hand off. Another important feature of this type of touch is that now you can use some sites on your phone by just hovering your finger over the screen. This will depict a mouse on the screen. This is the first time a phone will feature this kind of technology and you can bet that other smartphone makers cough nokia cough will copy this feature ASAP.


PRICE: The pricing of this device is unknown at the moment. The estimated price is $250(15000 inr).

SONY ERICSSON SMARTPHONES GETTING ICE CREAM SANDWICH IN MARCH 2012

Sony Ericsson announced that all its Xperia phones launched in 2011 will surely get Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
Till now there was no confirmation of the time of update being rolled out. But the Sony Ericsson Italy site tells us that the update will officially rollout in March 2012.
These are the 11 lucky phones that will get the ICS update:
1. Live With Walkman
2. Xperia Neo
3. Xperia Neo V
4. Xperia Arc
5. Xperia Arc S
6. Xperia Mini
7. Xperia Mini Pro
8. Xperia Pro
9. Xperia Active
10. Xperia Ray
11. Xperia Play
So all the phones are actually getting the update. The company is in the process of putting its custom TimeScape UI on the OS.
The facebook post by Sony Ericsson Italy also said that they are the only company to update their entire lineup of smartphones to ICS from midrange to High end. One of the commenters also said that Samsung will not be updating its low end smartphones to ICS like the Galaxy Mini and Galaxy Y.
So if you have one of these SE smartphones, you will have to wait for 4 months for an ICS update and if you dont have one of these, this may be a good time to buy one.
