Communication Options
Old school
cell phones can call and text. While this can get your message across,
smartphones allow you multiple ways of communicating. Not only can they call,
text and IM, they give you access to email, video calling and video
conferencing. You can also remain connected through social networking sites
like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.

Web Everywhere
At first,
Web browsing tended to occur at a desk in an office, where a wire could reach a
PC. Wireless access and laptops moved the Web to pretty much anywhere in the
house or office, but smartphone technology, including broadband wireless, has
sent the Web onto the subway, into cars and to the park -- wherever there is
cellular coverage. What's more, the latest smartphones can display nearly as
much of the Internet as PCs, including games and streaming high definition
videos.

Device MergerOnce, you might have needed an entire bag to carry around all the devices needed for daily business activities. You would need your cell phone and your PDA. You might also need an MP3 player, an e-book reader, a camera and a GPS device. Through miniaturized hardware that packs a processor, speakers, a camera, a GPS receiver, a Wi-Fi adapter and a high definition touch-sensitive screen into a cell-phone-sized device, a smartphone puts all of this functionality into your pocket. |

Endless ApplicationsThe late twentieth-century saw an explosion of computer applications. The early twenty-first century brings hundreds of thousands of smartphone apps.The sensors built into the smartphone as well as its portability and programmability have made it a device with almost limitless applications. Beyond the tons of games and productivity apps available, health and fitness apps track the miles you've run, the calories you've consumed and even your current heart rate. Internet radio and podcasting apps put you in touch with whole new worlds of audio. Compass apps, leveling apps and flashlights provide handheld utilities. Apps that let you paint, modify photos or create music tap into your creativity. |

The new Exmor RS IMX230 sensor consists of a new signal processor, which helps it achieve such high performance. On top of that, there is a section of back-illuminated pixels, resulting in a stacked construction. According to Sony, this type of construction delivers higher quality imaging and higher functionality for its size compared to competing sensors. Sony has been using this type of stacked sensor design since 2012. This compact design is likely the reason why the company's Xperia Z series phones can manage to fit a 1/2.3" large sensor without compromising on the thickness of the devices, while other companies struggle to fit even a 13 MP sensor in a flat-back and slim device. |
