The first look at the reworked Sony Xperia phone design




We know that Sony is finally planning to change the design of its phones, and we might have just got our first look at what that change will involve.
Georgian site Vortex.ge claims to have acquired design drafts for two upcoming Sony handsets and has created renders based on them, one of which is a very angular flagship which has a mirror-like back.
There are curved sections of a different shade at the top and bottom, while the front has a seemingly large screen of apparently 4K resolution, and small bezels above and below. It’s a striking design, but most striking is the claim that the fingerprint scanner will be built into the screen.
That’s something that both Apple and Samsung have been rumored to be working on, so it could be a big win for Sony if it gets there first.
The site also claims this phone – which might be the Sony Xperia XZ Premium 2 – has a Snapdragon 845 chipset, 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a dual-lens rear camera and front-facing stereo speakers.





A more conventional option

The other phone pictured is expected to be a lower-end one but still looks premium, so perhaps it’s the Sony Xperia XZ2. There’s less information on this one, but it apparently has a fingerprint scanner on the back rather than in the screen.
You can see from the renders that it also has a dual-lens camera but that the design is slightly plainer, with what appears to be a metal back and slightly curvier corners, along with similarly small bezels above and below the screen.
We’d take all of this with a pinch of salt, especially the claims of an in-screen scanner, but with Sony set to change the design of its phones sooner or later it’s possible that this is accurate.
  • These phones will have the Samsung Galaxy S9 to compete with

5 iPhone X Alternatives With Edge-to-Edge Displays | Android

Smartphone displays that almost cover its front are called edge-to-edge displays. The concept has been around for the past few years, but was validated again with the  iPhone X . Apple’s newest smartphone bears a big 5.8-inch display when measured diagonally, fit into a body only slightly larger than 4.7-inch iPhones. That’s the biggest benefit of an edge-to-edge display: you can accommodate a huge viewing area without making the phone too unwieldy. Apple wants to charge you $999 for this pleasure, further pushing the price boundaries of smartphones. But here’s the thing: if edge-to-edge is what you want, there are several Android phones already on sale that do more or less the same thing. So today, we’re looking at the top five alternatives to the iPhone X, that have a screen-to-body ratio of nearly  80 percent . 1.  Essential Phone   Essential Phone 128 GB Unlocked with Full Display, Dual Camera – Black Moon  BUY NOW AT AMAZON $699.00 Created ...

Meltdown and Spectre: what you need to know

Overview If you’ve been keeping up with computer news over the last few days, you might have heard about Meltdown and Spectre, and you might be wondering what they are and what they can do. Basically, Meltdown and Spectre are the names for multiple new vulnerabilities discovered and reported for numerous processors. Meltdown is a vulnerability for Intel processors while Spectre can be used to attack nearly all processor types. The potential danger of an attack using these vulnerabilities includes being able to read “secured” memory belonging to a process. This can do things like reveal personally identifiable information, banking information, and of course usernames and passwords. For Meltdown, an actual malicious process needs to be running on the system to interact, while Spectre can be launched from the browser using a script. Microsoft, Google, Mozilla, and other vendors have been releasing patches all day to help protect users from this vulnerability. Some of th...
