What do u guys think abt the new Arc series the Xperia T & Xperia V
:highfive:
both the Xperia T & the V already beats the Galaxy S III & the oneX in the Benchmark tests
New arc series!!if they are anything like the original arc/s they'll be excellent,competition should be worried!!!

I just read that article on GSMArena, and my hart was... like house!
New Arcy Xperias with krait dual-cores are beating other flagships so badly that I just can't believe... I can only say, WOW.
Haha, watch your asses, SONY beasts are coming!
PS: You should rename topic into "There's a storm coming, Mr. Samsung", like one user commented on GSMArena.
The Xperia V looks promising, and it's very good to see Sony returning to replaceable batteries and microSD slots after abandoning those in the NXT line. I would personally have liked to see real, hardware buttons for home/back/menu but I guess all the manufacturers have dropped those now.
yup..both look kool...they will be launched in october 1st week atleast in India
im slightly dissapointed.......that i bought the gs3!!!! Man I loved my arc but i just had to move on....one month too soon. the new series are great though, cant wait to try them!
super awesome. i will buy xperia v, even if i'm child an can't pay money for LTE (80€/month) xD
But its water resistant and is the fastest device avaible, with dual-core, which is way better than Galaxy S3.... Because Power of Dual-Core..and saving power and heat.. awesome, but LTE i can't pay i dont have enough money
I wanted to upgrade to s3. but the new sony xperia T keeps the arc design. along with the beast dual core krait processor!!! Can't wait for the upgrade.
I'm waiting to see how much they will retail this mobile here in the US. It just might be my next mobile, the T-TX.

Xperia V looks promising...
I just hope the price would range as a mid-level phone
I like the V also. I downloaded the user guide for the SL, which DOES have a removable battery cover. But the software for the V has me waiting for its release.

Do you like jokes ? : Adreno 200
You want a joke ? 512 Ram + 1ghz single core
Looks gooood:laugh:
I wonder why the TX was revealed quietly at IFA. Maybe because it has similar specs to the T but the TX is my personal favourite. The GX/TX design is better than the T design imo.
Only if the T and TX had LTE. Flagship phones without the fastest data speed mediums available is a minus.

will i bea able to use 4g on AT&T with the xperia V?
don't u guys think that xperia SL is the awesomest...
I mean its the only phone with 1.7 ghz processor...?
I saw one of us talking about the much awaited software from xperia V.... what's so special?
i liked the xperia SL better ?

hit thanks if i've helped u.
It might, just have to look at the specs.

xperia v looks just great
I'm interested in the 13mp camera that the Tx has, I wonder if its better (if any) than the S
nice
well Samsung, I think I'll stick with Sony for a while. They're just too good to miss.
My sources tell me that the Usa version of Xperia z will carry the new snapdragon 600 series !! That's why it didn't come out Jan or Feb and there releasing it Q2 and it makes total sense cause if it didnt have the new and improved 600 series snapdragon they should of released it q1 to not have any losses during all of quarter one but it makes sense why there there waiting for Q2.. whoopie .... Thanks Sony for using the new 600 series on the Usa version of Xperia z I'm glad I didn't try and buy a different phone now in quarter 1when I had an upgrade available ..
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda app-developers app
why would only the US version of the Xperia Z get the new chipset?
your souces sound false.
Sv: Leak **** leak xperia z
That would be rather odd, if that was the case.. I'd like to see that, before I believe it. Would be the poorest marketing move of Sony yet..
Sent from my SGPT12 using xda app-developers app
Delaying launch will only hamper sales as new competition will be out then... surely Sony never want that
Where is Spectre51.. he has a good insider to I believe
Yeah it's likely less than 1% true if you ask me. Although I would have believed it if it were samsung or htc but sony? Nah! Not gonna happen even if it would be the end of the world
No info on the different CPU part of the original topic. Highly doubtful.
Sent from my Sony Xperia™ Z
While I don't necessarily believe this so called "leak" I do believe that if we're to wait until Q2 for this phone, it should be updated with the latest chipset. Consumers don't want to feel like they are buying a new device with "old" tech inside, even if the performance is still great and it is not that old. I WANT Sony to sell their ZL here in Canada with the new 600 series, considering the new chips are available.

Exactly if they wanted to make sales and have ZERO losses at all period it would of released already globally but it didnt cause they want to make sure the usa version has the new An improved 600 series that's why its not out yet also hasn't given out any details regarding it there waiting FOR 21 to announce everything ...at that big show and they will use the new 600 series as the marketING scheme to get people to buy it.. I mean lets be total seriously here if its not gone have 600 series it would be released already GLOBALLY !!!!! It would have been the smartest choice to realease the best phone in Q1 before other great phones come OUT they would have had an entire quarter all to themselves for people to buy there phone but they can't so there waiting til Q2 when they have enough supplies of the 600 series to realease the phone with.

Not quite. There is another reason it isn't out yet but I can't talk about that yet. I wouldn't expect any hardware changes.

Well then, sounds like one of the carriers might be picking one of the devices up after all (of course, after applying the usual branding). Good for Sony, didn't expect AT&T to pick up any Xperia's this period.
Might be something else but I can't really think of anything. Sony doesn't like making a lot of hardware adjustments (especially not internals) so that pretty much rules out a Snapdragon 600 for H1.

Awesome AT&T branding everywhere, if that's your thing
Hi guys just came across an array of rumors that point to Xperia Z being superseded as early as July this year.
Just want to know what your thoughts are. As a Xperia Z owner I feel robbed and disapointed that Sony would do such a thing and didn't any one learn from the mistakes of the HTC One X+ vs HTC One X+

Only one more flagship will be released this year... With snapdragon 800 processor.. camera is all speculation.... Well... Its very much like xperia s to xperia T evolution which happened last year... Xz will get next android update soon ...i.e. 4.2.2 but beyond that i.e. 4.3 jelly bean... it will get at last... Just like XS is getting jelly bean at last...

It must definitely be about the camera. That circular thing looks like the outer ring of the camera lens. I guess it must be the final camera software which was supposed to be due in October....together with 4.3., that'll be great.
However, I wish Sony would skip 4.3. and just go straight to 4.4. I mean, who wants 4.3. if 4.4. is just 14 days away?
Sony should make everybodys mouth drop if the announce they release of 4.4. at the end of October. Like: "BAM! In your face Samsung!"
I mean, hardware manufacturers are supposed to have acces to the next Android version 3 months before the release to the public, so basically since the days of the 4.3. announcement and this should be plenty time to get the update ready soon after the 4.4. announcement.

I wouldn't expect 4.4 just yet, it will be a while before anyone has 4.4 on their device except the nexus 5. If anything, perhaps by December or January maybe Samsung or HTC will roll it out but I doubt it, more likely next year after CES. 4.3 just came for the htc one, and I don't even think the S4 is on 4.3 even. If Sony releases 4.3 now for the Z1, it will be a nice treat.
With 4.3 there is improved camera software, so perhaps with this, the camera's potential will be unlocked, as in better quality, [email protected], or even 4k.
Can be Android 4.3 or 4.4 and camera up grade, i think Sony will be good this year.

for the mini
judging by the picture, i think its something related to camera
hidden of hidden potentials or something, so they will release a new firmware with better camera capabilities and maybe even 4k recording
or maybe honami mini
I think it's something to do with the camera, like people have already said 4k recording could be one, but I'm hoping for the finalised camera software tbh. 4.3 is due out in October I'd be surprised if it came out so soon.

Do you wanna buy the new Sony® Xperia™ Z2?
I don't because the camera is same and i could play any games, even GTA SA at max setting in my Z1!
well .. the screen is better .. more RAM can't be bad .. but i think i'll stick with my Z1 for a while .. at least until the Z3 comes !!

Sony announced that the Z2 will be their flagship for the next 6 months as they prefer 6 month flagship updates
So by september the Z3 should be announced
So if you have a Z1 you should wait for the Z3 and then keep upgrading to the H2 flagship every year and if you have the Original Z then you should upgrade to the Z2 and then wait for the H1 flagship next year

Your right! And i don't like to change my cellphone 2-3 times a year!
I bought Xperia Neo V(Used for year [Learned basic Android dev])>Xperia Z (Used for 9-10 months [Learned Anything yet i know and can do])>Xperia Z1(1 month ago-present [Improved alot in Dev])
There's nothing difference between Snapdragon 800 and 801 for me, both can play any game at max setting smoothly and camera is also the same (4K recording that's coming soon to Xperia Z1),
I will change my Z1 when i see a very major change like: QuadHD display, Sensors and..... Snapdragon 810
