Look at the release date. This is a z3 competitor, not a z2 one. |

Yes I got your point, but as I told you before that Sony was working on e-ink back phone from the previous year
Don't know what's happened?
Honestly I will choose this e-ink back phone over any phone in the market now |

somehow it bring sadness to my face
The next iPhone could have an impressive display with \"Quantum Dot\" technology
Along with Canonical founder confirmed that they lost sapphire glass supply contract to Apple.

Hey guys, can someone explain the Live Color LED? And is the Triluminos display for mobile a software enhancement? Because Triluminos on their TV means they use QD tech.

I think, if Apple play their cards right, they could be the big winner of this year´s announcements.
Or is it just the new trend to merely offer small upgrades?
I mean I would´t know one reason why to trade in my Z1 for the Z2? A little faster? C´mon.......
There´s is no more new form factors, just design monotony, no new innovations. Seems the mobile market is running out of its Mojo.

The market has matured. Aside from offering larger screens, there isn't much Apple can do to markedly improve on the 5s.
All upgrades will be nominal. |

So moving on to new rumours. I guess the next announcement will be Xperia G then? Maybe they will do a stealth announcement like they did with the Xperia T2 Ultra |

Some ppl think that S5 has S800, but it's the S801. I wasn't too sure myself, but Qualcomm mentioned it in a tweet, so now I know for sure; Z2 and S5 both carry the same chip, but clocked differently. To me, the S5 is no match for Z2 anyway, with the Z2 having stereo speakers, 3gb RAM, better design (& camera I hope), shutter button & bigger battery.
Edit: GSMarena clears it up.
The S801 in S5 is slightly better than Z2, only slightly.

Just wondering if anyone has any information about the eventual z ultra successor? I was seriously considering getting the ultra but got swayed by the z1 camera...if sony can pull off the same specs as z2 in a z ultra body I am sold...I know its a huge screen but hardly anyone actually uses a smartphone for calling these days, plus it puts my sbh50 bluetooth headset to good use... |

Based on publicly available info, Live Colour LED appears to be a software enhancement powered by a dedicated chip. It may or may not include changes to the actual IPS panel. While Triluminous primarily increases the colour gamut, LC LED is designed to increase vividness and brightness. According to Sony:
"Live Colour LED is a brand new technology integrated only into Sony devices, giving you the world’s deepest and most intense colours on a smartphone or tablet display. This new innovation combines red and green phosphor with blue LEDs and customised colour filters to produce a brighter and more uniform light. Capturing true colours without the risk of oversaturation."
Sonymobile.com claim it is integrated only on Mobile displays. This may be misleading though. The technology is new to Sony Mobile, but it already exists in similar form on certain BRAVIA TVs. The reason I assume it is primarily a software enhancement is that on BRAVIA, Live Color is:
"Powered by an image processor using an algorithm specially developed by Sony, Live Colour™ is able to reproduce incredibly vivid colours on screen. With four user-adjustable settings available, you can choose just how vivid you want your images to be."
It is possible that LC LED is a different technology for Xperia than BRAVIA, but why Sony would then brand it under the same name is elusive.
As for Triluminos, the answer is unclear. On BRAVIA it is a hardware enhancement powered by QD technology combined with the X-reality image processor to avoid over-saturation. On Xperia screens, there is debate over whether it is hardware or just software based. There was discussion last year when Triluminos debuted on the XZ1, with some posters claiming it was just a software enhancement. Perhaps more technically minded Esato posters can clarify.
Note that in a brief interview with Mobile Bravia engineers, they noted porting the technology from Bravia to Xperia:
"...involved a back-and-forth process of hardware modification and software parameter change; lots of meticulous planning and work.... In order to introduce super-res technology processing for video, for the first time, we implemented the algorithm on GPU, not CPU."
In theory, if you combine both Triluminos and Live Colour LED with a good panel, you should get an amazing display. |

Just noticed something interesting. On Sony's website, the tablet is referred to as a gaming tablet repeatedly. Didn't say this for the original tablet z. Expect a pro tablet this year guys.

Triluminos on Xperia Z1 and Z Ultra is just a software thing, Sony did colour calibration to trick our eyes (a little unusual adjustment). I really eager to see if Live Colour LED will live up expectation this year.

Sony need to work on their autofocus system...seriously. Numerous complaints from Z1 owners, that it takes ages to focus and hunts around for a while. Similar problems from me and my Z1 compact as well...it's really annoying. I hope Sony patch this with future updates, because aside from the awful noise suppression which murders all detail, it's the biggest problem
