Sony confirms Windows Phone smartphone launch in 2014.

Microsoft has reportedly been in talks with Sony to bring a Windows Phone smartphone bearing “Vaio” branding by mid-2014. Reports also claimed that Microsoft can cut down on or completely waive off the licensing fees for encouraging the adoption of Windows Phone platform.

Now, seems the talks have paid off and Microsoft’s Windows Phone director Greg Sullivan has revealed to CNET China that Sony is indeed bringing a Windows Phone device in 2014 or even by mid-2014. As much this is good news for Microsoft, Sony may also benefit as it has not tasted huge success with Android. This devices could serve as a vehicle for Sony’s Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited services as per the reports.

Sony Xperia Z1s teardown demo: disassembled device reassembled in 30 minutes

Sony's recently announced Xperia Z1s for T-Mobile was taken apart. If you've ever wanted to see a disassembled phone put back together, here's your chance.

Sony Xperia Z1s teardown: Sony walks us through reassembling its latest phone

Sony used CES 2014 as the launchpad for its Xperia Z1s, and the company was happy to take us on a trip through the many parts that make up their latest flagship device. In a visit to its booth, the company showcased an Xperia Z1s that had been completely disassembled and would be put back together by hand. Obviously, this isn't the way that smartphones are normally built. Were we to rely on workers to assemble these devices by hand without the aid of major machinery, only a few hundred people would be able to receive a Z1s next week. However, the demonstration did give us an inside look into the phone and how several parts work together to deliver a full package of game playing, phone calling, video watching, and app loading. Below is a video of the Xperia Z1s being put back together with very light edits made for time and camera difficulties.

Sony to target U.S., China in smartphone offensive

Sony will ramp up marketing of smartphones in the U.S. and China, aiming to double its global sales volume in two years, according to Chief Executive Officer Kazuo Hirai.

"We've built the foundations in Japan and Europe," Hirai said in an interview with The Nikkei here, where the Consumer Electronics Show kicked off Tuesday. He explained that a joint venture with Sweden's Ericsson that Sony turned into a wholly owned subsidiary at the start of 2012 has spearheaded such efforts. "From now on, we'll put more resources into the U.S. and Chinese markets," he added.

In China, the electronics maker began supplying handsets designed specifically for mobile carrier China Mobile at the end of last year. And in the U.S., it has been shipping new smartphones to T-Mobile U.S., the country's No. 4 carrier.

"I can't share detailed plans. But now that we've decided to go on the offensive, we'll put money and people into those markets," he said. "I hope you'll see the results in a year." The company plans to cultivate its customer base and offer a broader variety of handsets to increase sales.

For the year ending March 31, Sony plans to ship 42 million smartphones, roughly double the figure from two years earlier. "We hope to maintain the same growth pace as the past two years," Hirai said on the plans for the next two years. The firm aims to ship more than 80 million handsets in fiscal 2015, tapping demand from emerging economies as well as the U.S. and China, according to Hirai.

Apple and Samsung Electronics are by far the largest smartphone suppliers in terms of market share. But from No. 3 Huawei Technologies on down, the share differences are much more narrow. Sony is apparently seventh, and the immediate goal is to leapfrog to No. 3.

To boost consumer appeal, Sony will offer high-performance cameras on its handsets, leveraging its position as the world's top provider of digital camera image sensors. The firm will also beef up content services for the handsets, capitalizing on its entertainment wing's ownership of movie and music titles.

Hirai noted that the company has decided not to sell off its battery business in light of the key role the components play in smartphones. Battery "technologies that set us apart from rivals will be important," he said, adding that Sony batteries are highly regarded by customers.

Meanwhile, earnings are improving rapidly at Sony's television operations, Hirai noted. The firm had considered withdrawing from this market if the business were to bleed red ink this fiscal year, but that possibility is now unlikely. It will pursue profit growth by merging content services with the hardware, he said.

Hands-on with Sony's background defocus camera app

Sony brings a new camera feature to the T-Mobile Xperia Z1s

Android Central @ CESWhen Sony launched the Xperia Z1 last year, it introduced a new camera apps with several mini-apps for taking various kinds of shots. And now with the T-Mobile-bound Xperia Z1s the company is launching a new, exclusive "background defocus" app to for taking macro shots with artistically blurry backgrounds.

Launched from the main camera menu, background defocus lets you select an object in the foreground to focus on, then hit the shutter button and take your photo. Next you'll enter the defocus editing mode, where you can control the level and type of blur being used — a regular soft blur, or vertical or horizontal motion blur. When you've selected your blur type and level, hitting the check button will save your shot to the gallery.

The new background defocus mode is exclusive to the Xperia Z1s for the moment, though given the ease with which new camera features can be added to the Z1's camera, we wouldn't be surprised to see it on other handsets in the future. Check out our hands-on video for a quick walkthrough.

Sony’s new Background Defocus feature on the Xperia Z1S is gorgeous, when it works

Sony made quite a few exciting announcements this week at CES, but hidden among the bigger releases was Background Defocus, a tiny camera app that will make your photos look amazing.

The feature will start out as an exclusive for T-Mobile’s upcoming Xperia Z1s, which goes on sale in the US later this month. Still, I’d expect Sony to bring Background Defocus to other Xperia phones after some time has passed.

Here’s the feature in action, as demoed by a Sony rep:

To use Background Defocus, you choose a focus point and then tap the camera button. After some processing, you’ll be able to set the amount of blur you want and whether you want additional distortion. Behind the scenes, the Xperia Z1s is actually taking two separate photos at different exposures in order to let you blend in the blur. The feature reminds me a lot of how HDR works, just for a different purpose.

The Xperia Z1 line already includes a fantastic camera, but optical limitations have prevented even the best cameraphones have struggled with producing the much-coveted bokeh effect that you can get from DSLRs and other standalone shooters.

The Xperia Z1s also includes the suite of Sony’s other smart camera apps, such as Info-Eye, Timeshift Burst, Social Live and AR Effects.

Unfortunately, Background Defocus requires very specific framing and lighting, so you won’t be snapping selfies on the fly with it. Sony recommends you stand about two feet away from your subject and frame it so the background is at least three feet behind it. When I tried the Z1s at the Sony booth, the phone flashed errors in most situations outside of the demo setup.

New customers switching over to T-Mobile will have a nice little feature to play with if go with the Xperia Z1s. The rest of us will have to stick to our photo editing apps to recreate the effect.
