Sony Xperia Touch: A Projector That Lets You Have a Touchscreen Tablet On Any Surface

Ever since I saw the original Surface (not the tablets, it was a giant table you could use as a touchscreen oh so long time ago), I’ve always wanted a touch screen table, wall, whatever was realistically possible. Now, while that does exist, it isn’t quite what you’d call affordable. The Ideum touch screen table, for example, starts at about $10,000. Now a lot of this price comes from making large enough displays that have touch capabilities, but what if you didn’t need the screen? Sony has finally brought to market their Sony Touch, a projector they’ve been touting around that […]

Sony Xperia XZ Premium Specs

Sony Xperia XZ Premium: 4K HDR Display, 960 FPS Slow-Motion And Comes in Chrome

Sony announced a plethora of devices this year at MWC (again, like last year). A couple of mid-range devices called the Xperia XA1 and XA1 Ultra, and two higher-end devices called the Xperia XZs and Xperia XZ Premium. The first two are around the $300 mark and are super nice looking thanks to their displays that go all the way to the edge on either side, but they’re not terribly interesting to me (again super nice but there’s a lot of other phones I might recommend in that price range instead). The one phone that stands out as far as

Sony Xperia XA, Xperia X, & Xperia X Performance Hands-On (Video)

One of the surprises at MWC this year, Sony, instead of announcing a new high-end Z series phone, not only didn’t announce a new flagship phone, but they even told some reporters that the Z series is no more. At all. Instead, Sony seems to be trying to go after the mid-tier market. Three new phones were announced and instead of the top of the line specs, they were given decent specs and a healthy dose of styling. The Xperia X series as Sony is calling them consists of the XA, the X and the X Performance. All three have

Sony Xperia Ear Hands-On (Video)

Sony wants you to try to use a different sense for your smart devices. Instead of looking at your smartwatch or smartband, why not listen instead.

From having it dictate messages, read you Navigation directions as you go, to playing music with your voice, to even searching

How to Root the Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet

Sony’s water-resistant, eight core, super thin latest tablet – the Sony Xperia Z4 – is no slouch. In test’s by CNET and others, it performs pretty spectacularly, running through anything you throw at it was ease. In that same CNET review, the writer also mentions how customizable it is thanks to being on the latest version of Android and Sony’s own customizable UI they’ve added to it. And while, I’m sure it’s great and all, I’m also sure I’m not the only one that would rather just have stock Android lollipop on it to really take advantage of those monster specs
