HTC launched a new smartphone yesterday keeping in mind the requirements of selfie lovers. HTC’s new Desire Eye has an unbeatable 13MP with dual-LED flash front-camera making it the best selfie smartphone till date.

HTC Industrial Design VP, Jonah Becker introducing Desire Eye

The Desire EYE offers an incredible design while also adding some unique features that you otherwise might expected in a flagship smartphone. HTC said that the Desire EYE will be targeted at several market segments, including teens who are consistently streaming video from their front-facing cameras, to reporters who rely on high-quality photos out in the field, remote health access in situations where an ill person might video chat with a doctor and more. 

Desire Eye is powered by a Snapdragon 801 processor clocked at 2.3GHz, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage expandable via microSD card, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0 and a 2,400mAh battery. The screen is a 5.2-inch 1080p display and have HTC’s signature BoomSound speakers. The device itself comes in two colours, coral reef (white with orangish red trim) and blue lagoon (dark blue with light blue trim).

After launching the their most popular smartphone Moto G (2nd Gen), Motorola India just announced the price of their latest flagship Moto X(2nd Gen). Moto X (2nd Gen) will cost starting from `31,999 and will be available to order from Flipkart starting today midnight. 

Pure style. Pure performance. The new #MotoX starts at Rs. 31,999. Available only @Flipkart at midnight tonight. pic.twitter.com/WXB1GSdaP8
— Motorola India (@MotorolaIndia) September 24, 2014

Flipkart launched their latest flagship Moto X (2nd Gen) on 5th September at an event held in Chicago and New Delhi. The new version of Moto X had a lot of improvements at which its predecessor failed. 

First a look at its specifications. 

• CPU: 2.5Ghz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 
• GPU: Adreno 330 
• RAM: 2GB 
• Storage: 16GB (no microSD card support) 
• Display: 5.2” 1080p Full HD 
• Camera: 13MP rear and 2MP front 
• Connectivity: 3G, LTE, NFC, GPS 
• Battery: 2300mAh 

Previous version of Moto X was in no way bad but people wanted more from a flagship device. A bigger screen, a better camera were some of the few things required. But this new Moto X is no way going to dis-hearten them. It boasts a full HD 5.2 inch display which is even bigger than the HTC One M8 but the build of the phone is such that it’s smaller in size. 

Surprisingly even after such a big change in the specifications the price of the smartphone is not changed that much. Previous version Moto X cost 23,999 and the new Moto X is of 31,999. So it is a steal at that price. It will be available for pre-order starting today midnight on Flipkart so be ready.

Sony's new flagship Z3 and Z3 Compact is here

Sony is now here to add to the long list of phones being launched today. Although these devices weren’t the best kept secrets but it’s great to see them officially unveiled. Sony keeps on refreshing its flagship phones every 6 months and that’s why we are seeing Xperia Z3 precisely a year after the launch of Xperia Z1. The company on Wednesday officially unveiled the Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact, two devices that bring both beautiful looks and cutting-edge technology. 

Up first is Sony’s flagship, the Xperia Z3. The new 5.2-inch phone from Sony lacks for nothing, with a 1080p screen resolution, quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor, 3GB of RAM, and a familiar 20-megapixel camera sensor that has now been boosted to reach an unprecedented 12,800 ISO sensitivity. The lens has been made wider, with the new 25mm-equivalent field of view capturing more of the scene around you, and there's improved image stabilization for video, which can once again be recorded at 4K resolution. 

Citing improvements in the efficiency of the display and processor, Sony also says that the Z3 will last a full two days on a single charge. The Xperia Z3 will launch globally later this autumn and is anticipated for an October release in the UK. 

Joining the Z3 on Sony's IFA stage is the 4.6-inch Z3 Compact. It sports a 4.6-inch 720p screen and the premium aluminium edging, but those are intangible losses, but otherwise comes with the same features and design as its bigger brother. You still get that 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 chip, LTE support, and 20-megapixel camera with G Lens for a no-compromise photo experience. The colour scheme of the new Compact has been switched up with a pair of bold and inviting shades of red and green to go with the standard black and white. It has earned an even higher waterproof rating of IP68 .

One of Sony's hidden synergistic weapons here, though, may be PS4 Remote Play. The Sony Xperia Z3 and Z3 Compact are joining the PS Vita in being able to stream and play PlayStation 4 games away from the console. Starting in November, the three members of the new Z3 family will allow you to play your PS4 games directly on their screens so long as they are on the same Wi-Fi network as the big games machine.
