While most phones have opted a dual rear camera setting, Sony is still quite stubborn in staying with its single 19-megapixels rear camera, and a 13-megapixel front camera. Curiously as well, it's a lower resolution than the previous generation of 23-mega...
Sony hasn't really changed much in the XZ1 compared to its other XZ line up. Seriously, they can do much better. They could be saving the major changes into a future major release. As for the XZ1, it is a solid phone, but doesn't differentiate much from i...
