Is there an option to buy this phone unlocked in Canada? (I believe the Xperia ZL was Rogers only, and Xperia Z was Bell exclusive), but I'm not with either of the carrier.

T-Mobile are almost certain to carry Honami. No other carrier will offer sony phones at least for this year.

Read the articles. They only mention NFC and WiFi. No BT.

NFC is incredibly slow, it can't be used for any proper data transfer. NFC is really only useful for setting up another connection (and it's pretty good at that). Tap two things together and they'll automatically pick the best way to connect to eachother, whatever it is.

The lenses do their data transfer over WiFi, always. This means you can basically put your lens down somewhere, go to a different room and still have it work. The range won't be WiFi-router like, but it's still a pretty nice amount.

NFC is only used to pair devices, not as a the main transfer protocol.

I believe the new lens accessories use wifi as the transfer protocol and NFC to pair.

On the PS4 NFC will likely only be used to pair devices too, then wifi to transfer.

NFC simply isn't designed to quickly transfer large amounts of data. Only small packets.

Also, does anyone know if PS4 or PS4 controller have NFC? There was a video on here a long time ago showing how to link your PS3 controller to your Sony-phone, it would be amazing if you could do it through NFC to a controller to play games on your phone, or use tap your phone to the console and have it link as an additional controller


What is the advantage of using NFC over the current bluetooth setup?


NFC is more practical for short range and low data... the need of having a real physical proximity between both NFC devices makes it very good to handle the start of both Bluetooth and WiFi Direct connection, both which are very annoying to start with all these steps required to search and pair...

I think the Idea is very simple, as soon as you touch the smartphone with the lens, the NFC will trigger then both will be connected using WiFi Direct, and the camera app will start so it will be ready... no need to turn things on and searching and connecting like what you do when using WiFi Direct...

Read what articles? I know they use both WiFi or Bluetooth after pairing with NFC for data transfer.

LOL, now we're arguing about NFC.

With wifi connection, I wonder if there will be noticable lag between pressing shoot to transfering file to writing file completion...
Taking scenary shots Shouldn't be a problem, but interesting to see if it can cope well with fast moving objects, such as sports scene, for example.
This, and how battery-power-sapping this combo will be on the phone would be my deciding factor as to whether i will buy or not..

Why should the files be transferred instantaneously? The lens cameras store the photos on SD card in the body itself, the phone only acts as a viewfinder/controller.

Oh, in that case, no lag then. I didn't think about storage within the lens attachment
And another Q... what about videos? Jpeg engine only?
