    Other Should Apple consider using frosted glass and unpolished stainless steel in a future iPhone?

    Frosted glass provides all the benefits of normal glass, except gloss. This means that it is more resistant to scratches and does not collect fingerprints and smudges. Here's what it looks like (Sony Xperia Z5): One disadvantage is that the colors look a little dull, but I'm willing to...

    Phones Sony Xperia XZ Premium

    Sony has just announced four new Xperia handsets.. but the one that got me intrigued is the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. On the face of it, Sony appears to have all the right ingredients for a great phone. A 4K HDR screen, an awesome (in theory) camera with 960fps slow-mo video, the latest Qualcomm...

And when I...

    Phones End of the Xperia Z series?!

    When Sony announced three new Xperias earlier this week, it wasn't really apparent where they fit into its grander smartphone plans. Turns out, the X, XA and X Performance are its future. Since 2013 Sony's flagships have been defined by the letter "Z." We've seen over 10 smartphones with the...
