Sony Ericsson’s New Smartphone Is Sweat Resistant

thumbnail
The latest Smartphone from Sony Ericsson is perfectly suitable for two kinds of people: first, the people who sweat profusely and the second being the jogger types. Dubbed as Sony Ericsson Xperia Active, the recently launched smartphone from Sony Ericsson has been developed to withstand the elements such as dust and water. The Sony Ericsson Xperia Active is water-resistant, dust-proof and even adds in "wet finger tracking" (which, confessedly, sounds rather gross). The Sony Ericsson Xperia Active might not withstand a deep dip in the pool or the eventual drop in toilet, but it surely can withstand small wet conditions. If truth be told, the Active is intended towards the people who want to browse web even when they are on the treadmill. Though, you might want to avoid talking over the phone in the gym, its not all that kosher to talk on the phone at the gym. Along with the Sony Ericsson Xperia Active, Sony Ericsson also launched  [...]

Sony’s NEX-C3 is no more the digital camera with world’s smallest interchangeable lens, and it’s not been too long that the camera has been dethroned. The title of “World’s smallest interchangeable lens digital camera” now is with the Pentax Q. Yes, Pentax Q is the latest smallest interchangeable lens digital camera, and in order to make that happen Pentax also had to fit in the sensor as well, and hence it makes the Q not only the smallest ILC (Interchangeable Lens Camera), but also the camera having world's smallest sensor in an ILC. The Q makes use of a 12.4 MP, 1/2.3 in CMOS backlit image sensor, which has been manufactured by Sony. The sensor used in the Pentax Q is drastically smaller than Sony’s APS-C and 4/3 sensors, that we’ve seen in Sony’s NEX-series cameras and Micro Four Thirds, respectively. Now considering the fact that the image quality is primarily dependent on the sensor size, the Pentax surely wont be able to compete straightly with any of the other  [...]
