Wireless headphones!
I would like a pair of those.  Which model are they? Do they have NFC? |

@random: Sony MDRRF985RK... had to look that up 
@JoJotaro: No fancy schmancy NFC, just wireless RF.  It's pretty comfortable and the charging connectors are at the top right where the headphones rest on the stand. |

You can buy it in October, not September. Though it depends on the region.

hey ramu...
What do ur sources say abt d thickness of honami ? I just don't like the idea of i1 being 12mm thick... 10mm is much more acceptable!
Off topic- acc. to d latest video reveal s4 active has dual core s4 plus and a 8 mp cam. |

I think 10mm should be the maximum thickness of any future flagship smartphones. Especially now that these phones have huge footprints, even increasing the thickness by a little bit will make it feel bigger.
@randomuser: Is the sensor still exclusive to the "i" line?

Abhi, do the math. Even at 12mm is almost impossible to cram 2/3" sensor. 10mm is impossible. Sensor + lens alone will be more than that, forget screen CPU etc.
So if Honami ends up being 12-13mm thick, it will be a massive engineering feat to have crammed a 2/3" sensor and Xenon flash in such a thin frame.
@All others wishing for sub 10 mm thickness
Time to get real folks!. It is physically impossible to make a sub 10mm phone with 2/3" sensor. The sensor + lens itself crosses 10mm. It's a Nokia Pureview 808 competitor we are talking about here and not a Galaxy S4 rival with tiny sensor that everyone starts complaining why is it too thick.
It's like saying I want a 5 inch screen in the body of Nokia N8. It can never happen because the N8 body itself is smaller than 5 inch screen panel.
Honami has same sensor size as this camera.
@Coolkid
Those are software features, Triluminos is not confirmed so I didn't add. 60% chance though for Triluminos
@sighduck
It's exclusive to Sony. Not necessarily restricted to "i" line only

Btw... Are these tech sites actually paid by apple & samsung or what?
Just read an article abt apple smartwatch coming soon on PA and it was all abt how big of a invention is iWatch.
They even mentioned names of lg, sammy, htc abt how they r gng to enter the smartwatch market.
But what is really annoying that those bastards not even for once mentioned the name of Sony which has been the only company making smartwatches frm such a long time! How can be a iWatch innovative when Sony has already done this so long ago?
Morover all the people who commented below didn't even care to name sony even once!!!
They were all acting as if apple is the 1st one to do this !!!
Is it paid tech sites misguiding people too much OR actually sony is the culprit who is still doing a pathetic+poor+b*tch job at marketing it's products... ??? |

Abdi: The Smart Watch by Sony is a cool product, but I never desired to own one. It's too bullky. Sony failed to sell it to me, not just because of their marketing but because they didn't really push the boundaries of what they could do with a smart watch. Part of it is timing, Sony was too early I believe. The technology wasn't there yet. These up-comers will come out with curved smart watches as flexible screens are becoming available, probably at the same time Sony releases theirs. And that is a big if. Sony never even pushed their Smart Watch that hard, so I have a hard time believing Sony will pursue a next generation smart watch. What I see happening is the market is flooded with smart watches after Apple enters, Sony comes back in and realizes the gold mine they were sitting on. I think Sony is still too reactive instead proactive when it comes to their products. Hopefully the One Sony philosophy will address that.
Random: I guess 12mm, thinner than Pureview's 14mm, would look better on the Honami because of its bigger footprint, leading to better proportions. The Pureview is an ugly bugger with its small 4" footprint and protruding camera bump.
