Well guys! I was busy so I couldn't follow the CES:/ I'll follow Kaz speech by the way! I love that man :3
Also! I love the z1 compact and I really hope Sony to have great income with it! This phone is a great device, almost perfect...! It's not for me because I prefer 5" devices but I'm in the minority!:P
I personally founded interesting the Smartwear, I'd not buy the Smartwatch because They are too "flashy" it's something that everybody instanctly recognise being "digital"... This on the pther side is way more "subtle"! If they show me great use of this I'll surely buy one:)
And also this cradle! I like this idea! Great!
Have you seen the tv products from Sony?? Awesome:D their latest effort with the Bravia line are outstanding!!! |

This year's CES was different than the last 2. In 2012, they announced the S and Ion (platform: Fuji). In 2013, they announced the Z and ZL (platform: Fusion3). This year, they also announced 2 new smartphones, but the platform wasn't new (Rhine), in fact it's known since the Z Ultra/Z1. Many people had absurd expectations, even though there were almost no rumours. Only the Z1 Compact was dead cert. The Z1S was rumoured to be either a Z1 refresh or a Z1 that is destined for the American market, I thought to myself the former for a long time... But to be honest, I wasn't disappointed at all after the press conference, in fact I'm very satisfied because of the progess Sony made.
If you think back, the S/Ion were released outdated, with a processor which was about a year old. Then came the T/TX/V, they were still behind by roughly 9 months, but already a bright spot. Next up, the Z/ZL with, among other things, the S4 Pro. Still behind about 3 to 6 months, but they had the choice: Either S4 Pro + headstart or S600 (which isn't that much of an upgrade) + no headstart. In my opinion, they made the right choice. And after them came the Z Ultra/Z1. They were the first devices to boast S800, that was unthinkable not long ago. Now CES 2014: The first true miniature flagship smartphone. And the rest will be history...
I also want to mention a specific guy, Kunimasa Suzuki. He was really entertaining and brought some actual humour to the show. It was a joy to see him on the stage and I'm looking forward to see him again. Actually, almost everyone in Sony's current team is very genuine, passionate and refreshing. In Sony we trust.

Z1 compact is actually a smart name.
Is there a possibility for new product announcement in the keynote? I was waiting for Z Ultra wi-fi. |

Leak teases new direction for TouchWiz on Samsung phones
Looks like Sammy is getting a UI overhaul, finally getting rid of their cartoony UI. Any plans by Sony for a facelift?

I was thinking here. Sony has a good partnership with the Brazillian carrier Claro. That partnership is so strong that they have an exclusive Xperia ZL (ZQ, as it is called here) in Red.
Considering that, I can imagine them making an exclusive Xperia Z1c in Red color... It would sell like hot cakes here...
Can anyone try to Photoshop that?

So how probable is 'Sirius' for MWC?
Does anyone else have some insights, information or educated guesses?
I'm definitely getting a waterproof phone for the summer. And the camera of the S4 Active sucks and my S4 sucks, kind of.
So the Z1 (or maybe the Z1c) is more or less bought if there's no successor at MWC.

Haha...
I think the Pink is more to women (or attracts more them), while a red atrracts both men and women.

This is how you do a keynote!
The new streaming game service, called PlayStation Now will provide instant access to games from previous versions of products including, the PS2 and PS3. Even non console owners wil be able to access it on TVs, phones, tablets, Andrew House, group president for Sony promised.
Sony goes all-in on cloud with game and TV streaming at CES
Andrew House, president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment, said the PS4 launch was the largest console launch ever with Sony selling 2.1 million consoles in the first two weeks. That figure grew to 4.2 million units as of Dec. 28, he boasted at Sony's keynote event.

@ItsjustJOH
It's miles better, IMHO, still better than LG but it's not the style I like! also it's clearly ripped off from iOs7... everybody ripoff everybody
Sony and HTC are the way to go for me 
@Detox
If they manage to make the Playstation NOW service work right, well it will be an AWESOME service!!
Ps3, Ps2, Ps1, PSP games on every sony platform. TV and film on every Sony platform and more! 
Xbox One sold 3 million console... Playstation 4.2 million! the E3 turnaroud on Xbox has it effects
