News Sony Vaio Update : VAIO Announces Its Own Smartphone After Sony Sell-Off

After VAIO was sold off by Sony to an investment fund, the new independent company has since released a pair of new laptops and a tablet. It seems like VAIO has more up its sleeve, as it has now ventured into the smartphone space, with a new mid-range handset called the VAIO Phone. 

First spotted at the B-mobile website, the device runs on near-stock Android 5.0 Lollipop, with very minimal customizations, and has a 5-inch IPS 720p HD screen. It is powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core processor, with 2 GB of RAM, and 16 GB internal storage expandable up to 64 GB via microSD.

The handset also includes a 13-megapixel rear camera, and a 5-megapixel shooter on the front, along with a 2500 mAh non-removable battery. Lastly, it is reportedly 4G LTE capable, and supports micro-SIM cards. Obviously, due to the Sony sell-off, the device sports only the VAIO logo, but nothing else related to its former owner.

The VAIO Phone will be exclusively available in Japan, and only in black, and can be purchased via Japan Communications for 51,000 yen (roughly $420). It is not yet known if VAIO has plans to release their first smartphone in other countries.

New Upgrade Product Unveiled : Upgraded HTC Desire 816G With Octa Core Processor Unveiled

The HTC Desire 816G smartphone has already been available for purchase in India for a few months now, but you’ll soon be able to get hold of the upgraded version which packs a new processor and more memory. The handset has been officially launched for Rs 19990 which is just Rs 1000 more than what the previous model was priced at.

The new HTC Desire 816G smartphone comes with double the performance and this is made possible by dropping the old quad core processor for a 1.7GHz octa core chipset. The new SOC is most likely from MediaTek based on the Cortex A7 which is also found on the recently launched Desire 526G+.

Apart from throwing in a new ticker, the company has made no other modifications to the smartphone. So, you’ll basically be treated to the same gorgeous design with a large 5.5-inch 720p HD IPS display and BoomSound speakers on the front.

You’ll also sign up for Android 4.4 KitKat with the Sense UI and BlinkFeed on this HTC handset. Apart from these features, the phone comes with dual SIM card slots, 1GB RAM, 16GB expandable storage, a 5MP front snapper and a 13MP rear shooter. With the 2600mAh battery, you can expect up to 10 hours of 3G talk time.

Upgraded HTC Desire 816G specs:
– OS: Android 4.4 KitKat
– Display: 5.5-inch HD touchscreen
– Memory: 1GB RAM, 16GB expandable storage
– Chipset: 1.7GHz octa core
– Connectivity: Dual SIM, HSPA+, Wi-Fi b/g/n, GPS, Bluetooth 4.0
