MHL 3.0 announced also...
Support for 4K video + 10W charging ( 5V @ 2A )
what is related to Sony ?
The demo was done using Xperia Z1 + Sony 4K TV, this also means that is might be just matter of software update + newer cable using the same good microUSB 2.0 standard ( no need for the larger microUSB 3.0 )
I see the microUSB 3.0 ugly and large for mobile phones... I hope Sony will wait till the USB consortium finishes the newer standard which will look similar to microUSB 2.0 but can be flipped without any problem ( like Apple Lightening ) and also have USB 3.0 like speed

One thing that surprised me is that the noise cancellation headphones are not included in the box, unless some regions will have them included, but I feel they will not be. Thing is, they are not cheap, although not expensive, I feel if you over noise cancellation on your phone and tablet, why not just bundle the headphones.
Two notes :
1- It will be included for some regions...
2- the headphones should be cheaper than any other NC headphones... why ? because the Active NC logic is not in the headphone it self, it's in the phone it self... regular NC headphones have noise recording mic(s) + NC logic + battery to power it... Sony's solution is to move the logic to the phone instead this will also remove the battery leaving only the additional noise cancelling mic(s)... and these mic(s) are the reason of different headphone.. these additional mic(s) does not cost that much extra...
So why not using the mic(s) that is already in the phone so any headphone will be supported ? no as this will require you to have the phone always out of your pocket and duo to different location of the phone and headphones the NC will not be ideal...
just to hint, the solution is good for wired headphones only.. BT headphones will be hard to support such feature as it will require additional stream from the headphones to the phone and the BT standard won't be able to have these additional streams... for BT headsets.. you might want to look for ones with it's own active NC solution...
The MDR-NC31s have been used on most of the current walkmans with noise cancellation, F-series, S-series and E-series. Granted they are not the top of the line NC headphones but they work quite good.
I have the MDR-NWBT20N which is a bluetooth NC headphone set and it works just as good as my wired solution on my E series.

How can the same company win both CES AND MWC? Arguably IFA too...
Anyway, what I was saying all along about the Z setting up subsequent flagships to sell big, and for them to be increasingly ahead of the competition, turned out correct. Similarly, how Samsung rode on its reputation for the s2, and that the s4 would be the last phone with increasing sales, seems to be true.
Every year I'm genuinely curious about Samsung going all out. Every year I'm more and more disappointed.
I almost feel sorry for the competition at IFA...

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

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.
