After the tech boom, such as smartphones and tablets, the next frontier for tech companies is willing to shift to wearable products, such as Google glasses and smart-watches. A year ago, few people have heard about smart-watches.
Sony is a major player in the smartwatch market, despite the name is actually the third attempt by Sony. Sony SmartWatch 2 is surely a promising device because it is one of the product of the giants in the industry with years of experience and also has a few devices to search under his brand.
Hardware of Sony Smartwatch2
From the beginning, we can see a Smart Watch is a different matter when it comes to hardware- far from what we expect from smartphones and tablets. First, it is a clock. So you need their functional purpose, yes, but a clock to realize for years been associated with style, elegance and the image of fashion. Where a SmartWatch should have these basic attributes, and then also what makes it so called "intelligent". The hardest part of creating a Smart Watch is what sounds good to me does not seem like much to many others. That's why we see the variety of watch models, then how can satisfy many tastes of SmartWatch? The fact is- you can not. So it is up to you to decide, if you like it or not but honesty i do. It is not bulky and does not seem out of place in public. In fact, I thought I would feel a bit silly on the street or sitting in restaurants, but this was not the case. People seemed more intrigued and interested and no one seemed to think it a strange. If you are with the Sony Xperia products, you will surely recognize the device as Sony long before the logo. This means that a square with rounded corners, edges flat sides. Belts in our model is a question of the gum is at best convenient. It feels much softer and more comfortable than it looks at first, but do not jazzy- and we like it that way. It also reminds us Xperia slopes, moderate and elegant devices. It has a TFT screen of 1.6 inches, up to 176 pixels per inch. The reality is that you use it mainly to watch from time to time and slide from side to side at a time. Which is done by pressing a button on the aluminum side- you can see the time without needed to unlock the device (as opposed to the velocity of the Galaxy contrast to see and unlock the screen works very well for navigation menus. Some have complained that the response may be slow, but I never had this problem. The only other design feature is the micro-USB port for charging the trunk lid. There are more than aesthetic reasons to have a closed port load: SmartWatch 2 carries the same IP57 against dust and the degree of water resistance of the Sony Xperia say Z, it's over, when you spread your hands are dipped in water wash, but it really means IP57 rating it able to stay under water for 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter without any side effects.
Companion app and monitoring software
As I said in my first impressions after receiving the unit the smart watches have seen so far are all asking for some sort of assistance is based, which means that the ability of the clock "smart" comes from its complementary device. With the Sony is the same. As noted, the process is very simple. It was not necessary to read the instructions or play with different settings. Just use NFC in their devices quickly connect the two with a simple touch or pair with your Bluetooth phone to install the application, connect to the device to Play music etc. It is important to note that this work with a SmartWatch Smart Android device running Android 4.0 or higher. This gives you an immediate advantage over the Samsung Galaxy gear that only with Samsung devices. I 've been using the Sony Xperia C, a Galaxy Nexus S4 and two years without connection problems or performance difference. What I liked was the ease with which I could adjust the clock on my smartphone. The instrument settings always available through the notification area. Found a blow and the key and in the companion application. From here you can easily recommended for applications (directly from Sony), or you can search the app store for dozens of applications for the use of games, reviews of software and fitness. There is also an application of the adjustments to the clock itself, and this is where you can control some of the practical functions, such as turning Bluetooth on/off, activate the vibrations, the choice of clock to enable or disable some applications invited by default reset, and so on. You will definitely need to add application functions. It was more than I thought it would be, that the device is compatible with earlier versions . In fact, it is possible, applications that were designed for earlier versions of the SmartWatch loaded. The bad news is that much of the selection is not really worth getting excited about. There are many applications that do not work as well, or are not really useful or practical. This should change with time. I think the most disappointing is the fact that most applications, very expensive, and given the limited functions that could justify most purchases. I want to make a purchase, use it for five minutes and then a refund of the Play. Notifications are essentially what this device is all about me. You do not want to read a long address on the small screen (and can not), but being able to take a look at your clock and see if the sound of the bag worth your attention is the focus of this category at this time. Gmail messages showing the sender of the email, with a quick snippet of text. This is usually enough to know information if this is something that you have an urgent need to address or ignore now. One of the places that I have found most useful device was on his way. We all know the feeling when you are expecting a message or call, and you can see the mobile phone. Well, now you can simply scan your wrist to see what happens without being distracted. On the other hand , its perhaps the basic call processing. In the absence of speakers or microphone, this is the only thing I can do to reject or a call from the dial. Answering a call is really just a useful option if you have a Bluetooth headset.
The user experience and performance
Many people have asked, "What is the meaning of a Smart Watch" In my opinion, has been designed to cover some, if small hole in our lives with art, ie filled, the difference between the hand and the device in your pocket. Above the screen you will see the light of day- without backlight Happy day , like clockwork. What aspects of device performance "intelligent"? In short, I found acceptable when it is not exemplary. As I said, the answer is good enough for this type of device. You should not expect that you will pass through the screen of a SmartWatch per minute at a time as you need it on a smartphone. In fact, there will never be many home screens and some menus. One aspect that caught me off guard a few times, it is the intensity of the vibration alerts. Its strength can not be put anywhere on the device, but does not interfere in the long term. I have just a couple of hours to get used to it. In fact, when the vibrations are a little smoother, I think one of the problems would be even better: the battery. It is good to have a SmartWatch who easily takes 3-4 days with heavy use on a single charge. Not only that, the speed at which the device is charged epic. You must fully charge in about 30 minutes under vacuum. The general feeling you get after you for a long time, it is a euphoria that Sony is simple. Essentially, if you can operate a touch screen phone, you know how to use the SmartWatch, second The companion application of the host cell can be simple, but offers access you need without getting in the way. I liked the user interface simple and intuitive experience, with one exception- that would have been cool to have things such as alarm application.
Summary
Compared to the competition obviously, the Samsung Galaxy gear comes at a much cheaper price- ZAR2, 299 (U.S. $226). This means you do not have a microphone and a camera in the Samsung equivalent. However, it is compatible with any Android device running Android 4.0 and higher, which is a big advantage over its counterpart . Unlike a phone, The SmartWatch 2 is a well made product, price, grinning- it induces. The document provides a pretty good solution, and the potential to improve the functionality of future applications that will definitely meet the market. The bottom line is this: If you are "gadgety" and want a smartphone- companion, especially for messages SmartWatch 2 certainly fulfill this role. If you want more, you may have to wait for the technology to develop a bit more.
A mature Android Smartphone - The Sony Xperia Z Rating
Latest Android phone from Sony announced at CES 2013, and achieve a number of markets in February this year, is an impressive range of Sony continuity of Android smartphones. While it's not the Android device, dominate over all other Android devices, shows a steady increase since the first Android phones Sony last year. The Japanese company knows how to build all the elements of a solid smartphone. While it may lack the spark that is particularly able and reliable phone that I can recommend making. Of course, the recently announced Samsung Galaxy S4 sneaks ahead in the specifications of Paris, but it is the only phone that does. Compared to other phones worldwide flagship smartphone, the Sony Z Xperia in the upper class with CPW Quad Core 1.5GHz, Adreno 320 GPU and 2GB of RAM. Maybe the only option is memory (16 GB) is a little weak, but for extra storage microSD card compatible.
The diagonal of 5 inch screen is a joy. Developed by Sony, once again the "Bravia Engine 2 is a 1080p high-definition screen, a Retina display with 440 pixels per inch Apple pierces. A victim, so that the density can be viewing angle, the colors start in a relatively small angle fade, although no information is readable enough that. shake more for a person to face a train or run on the road, but with the HD screen is 5 inches, to share video at a specific time. The battery is located under the phone number sealed, and while it has a high capacity (2400 mAh) Screen with 4G LTE radios put a lot of demand for food. Fortunately, Sony has worked in the software, so that the phone can be easy to get through the day. This mode is set to "Endurance", which essentially reduces a strict guardian of power. When the phone screen is off, background tasks will be blocked, limited data transfers, and the phone tries to create the lowest possible energy, assuming you are not really anything to do with the phone. Applications can be colored white-list to ignore stamina mode, if necessary. Even if there is nothing for the Boilermakers geekerati does every moment with your smartphone, the user is a regular "stand-by" much more time on this phone. Android is power hungry in use, but most of the time, the Sony Z Xperia is sitting in a bag, motionless like a ninja. This is how you get through a day of work and an evening of entertainment on a single charge - more power with less energy in active use in low light conditions. Sony has taken place in a minimalist design style of the third post-Sony Ericsson. It's nice to see that there is some language on an Android device Sony - are very angular, straight edges and the minimum possible in relation to external hardware. This is facilitated by switching to Android programmable keys on the main keyboard of Android, which now appears on the screen instead of the key physical interface. It is a very slim volume control on the side, but the only real break the look is the power button - and Sony said that affects nearly wristwatch-like "as a trademark symbolic identification that will run through the line. It also has the advantage that enough outward so that when you pick up immediately how the phone is oriented at hand. This is a very important physical evidence because the phone is literally occupy between two sheets of tempered glass, which leads the entire front and back of the phone, which leads me to believe that the back of the screen is clamped a second touchscreen or a touch screen, unless the same manner as the PS Vita. A part of me wonders if Sony can press a second screen on the back of the device, if you decide a telephone Gee Whiz? Not that there's no gee whiz on this phone. If you have seen the ads, you know that it can be soaked in water, the 'proof' helmet, fell into a pint is, bent over, and it still works. Assuming that all the shutters are closed device. It is feared that the practice of opening a component (eg, on the micro-USB cable to charge), but I'll be honest, even with the mobile commentators have not had the courage to try consciously. I hope that Sony does, but I'm not willing to try, until you have an accident. But I'll make sure that the doors are closed as much as possible. Looking at the software, but not Android "camp", which is very close to her. Sony UI is not too far from what you would see on a Nexus 4th Running Android 4.1.2, we can expect Sony to download a 4.2.x release an exhaust boss in the summer, but the phone was stable in my essay. Main differentiating factor in the Sony software offers many of its own properties and brands, such as music players of the brand as "Walkman" and offer their two "unlimited" services on the platform. For a monthly fee, you can access the Music Unlimited service and listened to the catalog. This is a nice feature, but offers nothing more than other subscription services like Spotify, but the selection of music is comparable. Video Unlimited, you can rent moves at a cost that is usually about one-third of the purchase price, although I would like to see more HD content to go to the 1080p screen on the handset. Xperia Z is generated by the dynamics of the Xperia S and Xperia T since late 2012. Sony puts some money behind the advertising and promotion of mobile (but far from levels that are pushing Samsung Galaxy line), and building on the success of the first devices. Xperia Z has a maturity that a company is confident in their product displays. But at the same time, it also feels like a phone that has a little away from the coast. It has some excellent features such as waterproofing, but also be included, and I think that's a good sign. Sony has released a phone that is exactly what she wants to be white. Sony wants to be a player, you want to set, and it must be as a stable and decent manufacturer. The Sony Xperia S has shown that could build a good phone, the Xperia U found a house and a new confidence in the iterative design and advertising, and the Xperia Z is a mobile phone that everything you would expect offers, has style and gives confidence that will not be obsolete in six months. This is good, because Sony is on models of the letters at the end of the alphabet. Lose comparisons with the Galaxy S4 occur and the technical specifications of the Xperia Z. But do not think that it is not there, the Sony Z Xperia. They tried to establish itself as a player "second" in the room with the Samsung Android. Xperia Z are combined to do just that. But if you go further and take Samsung and snatch the crown of criticism outside of the Galaxy S4 want, I think they need another iteration or two.
