Sony Xperia Z Ultra carries a premium price tag in Hong Kong
1. papss posted on 8
Wow that is some price tag. Ill wait for the reviews before saying its not worth it though.
20. AnTuTu posted on 1
Its not worth because it doesn't have enough features to offer in software side.
But it is a good device in the build quality side of it.I wish Sony could have some developers like Sammy.
2. ryq24 posted on 8
And that is why sony will never be number one! Their products are almost always more expensive than others! Bet samsung note 3 will be cheaper!
4. smallworld posted on 3
The Galaxy Note is a very expensive phone as well.

Aren't they both? Listen, I'm a super hater of SS but that is a weak argument to be had

Why are you a super hater of SS....why?
12. papss posted on 1
I hate the design of their phones, the backs that flex/creak and the hyper glaze they use. I also dislike touch wiz.. I do however applaud that they go that extra mile to update their OS faster than any other and that they seem to use the best hardware...it's unfortunate that its wrapped in such an ugly shell.

no it isnt the Sony is a premium phone and worth it,, im getting it... have the Xperia Z,, i left Samsung and there cheap plastics
14. papss posted on 0
No I was saying aren't they both plastic?. I agree Sony makes quality handsets ( other than screen tech).
16. yudi.nemesis posted on 0
Sony actually has a lot of great screen technology. Triluminos, WhiteMagic, and Super Top Emission(Oled Displays) is just a few great display technology that Sony have.
the only problem is in some handsets like Xperia Z they use crappy display.
but that doesn?t mean they can?t make high quality display, now with Xperia ZU the situation has changed.

to be No. 1 every compan needs time, do you know how much time is samsung needed to be No. 1?
Sony product currently has a fairly competitive price range, for example Xperia SP has a cheaper price range in comparison with S4 Mini.
Even in some places you can buy Xperia ZR or ZL with the same price range with the S4 Mini.Note 3 is not going to be cheap because when compared to S4,
Note 3 will have a bigger screen and battery, better chipset, OIS, and a stylus. all of it will make the price of Note 3 to be expensive.

for Sony, they dont need to be no.1, HTC & LG sells more unit but Sony got more profit with less unit.
3. Shatter posted on 2
All smartphones are inflated prices and way above what they should be but really $824?
I'll stick with my nexus 4 and then I'm upgrading my tablet when I can get a 10" tegra 4 with a 1600p screen.
11. _Bone_ posted on 1
The funny thing is that you might get an LTE-supported Nexus 7 for third the price, a little hack, and there you have an even larger screen FHD "phone" plus $500 in your pocket.
The trend is more tablety the thing the more reasonable the price tag, the Ascend Mate costs $400. Sony must take us for a fool thinking they can ask $800 for a sorta-7" tablet.
5. InspectorGadget80 posted on 1
Still need a u.s. price tag for the Z Ultra before I buy the X phone.
9. _Bone_ posted on 2
For $830 surely they could've included an LED flash not to render the camera useless once you are in limited lights, and that's like half of your photography time.
19. InspectorGadget80 posted on 0
They want too compact every inch of the phone. If they put a flash on it it wont be a waterproof phone.
13. GeekMovement posted on 0
At least they're getting it ._. let's just hope it makes it into the US.
18. pyradark posted on 0
All sony phones goes all around the world except US. maybe honami is meant for US first before other world hahahaha
21. jibraihimi posted on 0
Got it..... Sony doesn't want to sell more than 10k-20k pcs. of this handset.........
22. Topcat488 posted on 0
That ugly plank has too much bezel on the top, bottom, and sides... And all the fans are afraid to admit that, live in your dream land Sony.
23. GALAXY-STORM posted on 0
Note 3 is gonna beat this overall
24. yudi.nemesis posted on 0
yeah note 3 will have better camera and battery, but you must remember the real Sony 2013 flagship is Honami.
according to rumours Honami will have no problem to beat note 3.with bigger screen Xperia Would be better for productivity

Wonston's annual church fete fundraiser
Wonston's annual church fete fundraiser
10:06am Friday 19th July 2013 in News By Joseph Curtis
IT was described as a quintessential English summer fete and it certainly lived up to the billing.
Hundreds of people headed to Wonston, near Winchester, on Saturday (July 13) for the annual church fete, including Winchester MP Steve Brine who officially opened it. It featured a performance by international singer Lisa Faye, a miniature steam train, duck races, croquet, face painting, bouncy castles and a number of other traditional events.
Bettina Betton, who leads the organising committee, said she was delighted with what the fete had to offer in the grounds of Old House, Wonston.
She said: ?Last year was a washout but it couldn?t be more different this year. We have a fantastic, intimate location, which is down by the river for duck races, the children are putting on their own puppet show and we have Lisa Faye singing with the new village choir the 5678s.
?It?s a new choir and they are perfect and we are thrilled they are here today.?
Mrs Betton said the fete was a key village fundraiser for Holy Trinity Church, which needs to raise ?30,000 per year to survive.
She said: ?This is a big chunk of that ?30,000 and usually we raise between ?5-?7,000 so hopefully we can do something similar this time as it will be a big help.? Mr Brine added: ?It?s an absolute pleasure to be back at this fete. Every time I?m here it?s been beautiful weather like this so you must be doing something right!?

FBI to State of Florida: Do Not Release Evidence From Zimmerman Trial
The gun used to kill Trayvon Martin and other evidence from the trial of George Zimmerman will be held by the Justice Department.
Captain James McAuliffe, of the Sanford, Florida, Police Department, confirmed that the evidence from the murder case of Trayvon Martin will not be released as originally planned. The evidence in question includes the gun used by George Zimmerman to shoot and kill the 17-year-old, the hooded sweatshirt Martin was wearing, and the bag of Skittles he was carrying at the time of his death.
The hold was placed on the evidence by the Justice Department, and McAuliffe said in an email, ?Until that hold is lifted the evidence will remain secured ? They have an investigation they are conducting separate from the criminal trial.?
US Attorney General Eric Holder, speaking at the annual NAACP convention in Orlando, on Tuesday said, ?I am concerned about this case and as we confirmed last spring, the Justice Department has an open investigation into it.?

'Chronicle' writer Max Landis: sequel happening, 'just not with my involvement'
By Josh Dickey
LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - "Chronicle" writer Max Landis says a sequel to his breakout hit for Fox is moving forward - just not with him.
"'Chronicle 2' is still probably happening, just not with my involvement as of now. It's a bummer, but there are no real hard feelings," tweeted Landis, who goes by the handle @Uptomyknees.
The found-footage original sci-fi story was a surprise hit for Fox in 2012, making $126.6 million worldwide on a slim $12 million production budget.
Josh Trank made his directorial debut with "Chronicle," which won him the job of Fox's "Fantastic Four" reboot - so he was never expected to come back. No director is assigned to "Chronicle 2" at the moment.
The eccentric Landis took the news well, handling it gracefully on Twitter - where he's never been afraid to speak his mind.
"The truth is, when you're successful as a screenwriter, you have to just take everything in stride. That's like more than half the job," Landis tweeted.

Lawyer: Edward Snowden could be free to walk Russian streets in days
But even if Russia grants Snowden asylum, his presence still complicates relations with the US.
RTR TV shows a document purportedly written by Edward Snowden that reads, 'To: Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation, From: Edward Joseph Snowden, United States citizen APPLICATION I hereby request you considering the possibility of granting to me temporary asylum in the Russian Federation. 15 July 2013.'
RTR TV/AP
EnlargeRussia's Federal Migration Service is processing Edward Snowden's hand-scrawled application for temporary asylum in Russia, and the former National Security Agency contractor's Russian lawyer says he might be able to walk out of Sheremetyevo airport ? where he's been holed up for over three weeks ? holding Russian refugee papers within a few days.
Skip to next paragraph Fred WeirCorrespondent
Fred Weir has been the Monitor's Moscow correspondent, covering Russia and the former Soviet Union, since 1998.?

"The question of giving him temporary asylum won't take more than a week. I think that in the near future he will have the possibility to leave the Sheremetyevo transit zone," the independent Interfax agency quoted the lawyer, Anatoly Kucherena, as saying.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, who's treated Mr. Snowden's forced presence in the Sheremetyevo transit area as an "unwelcome gift," also appeared resigned to having the former CIA employee as a guest of Russia for the foreseeable future in remarks made to reporters during a visit to Siberia Wednesday.
"I won?t give you any details. We have warned Snowden that any activity of his that could damage US-Russian relations is unacceptable for us," Russian news agencies quoted Mr. Putin as saying.
"As I understand it, Snowden didn?t aim to spend his whole life in Russia. I don?t understand how a young man decided to do what he did, but it?s his choice," Putin added.
International tensions
Besides the fact that the former KGB spy probably detests everything Snowden stands for, Putin is under considerable pressure from the Obama administration to hand him back to the US.
On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney hinted that failure to satisfactorily resolve the Snowden affair might result in "long-term problems" for US-Russia relations.
Moscow and Washington have recently been "engaging on a number of important issues, both economic and security related issues, and we want to continue that relationship unimpeded by this issue," Mr. Carney said. If Russia were to turn Snowden over, or at least expel him from the country, that would "resolve this situation that they have been dealing with now for three weeks," he added.
Carney didn't spell out the nature of the "problems" Snowden's continued presence in Russia might generate. But it's not hard to guess what they might be.
President Obama is slated to visit Russia in September to attend a G20 summit in St. Petersburg, and both sides have pinned hopes for a warming of the deepest diplomatic chill since the cold war on planned sideline meetings between Obama and Putin. It's hard to predict a positive outcome for that if Snowden is still being harbored in Russia at that point.
Another vulnerable point for Russia ? where memories of the US-led boycott of the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games are still painfully alive ? could be a similar move to shun the upcoming Sochi Winter Games, into which Russia has invested over $50 billion and much Russian prestige, over the Snowden issue.
That very threat was explicitly floated Tuesday by US Sen. Lindsey Graham (R) of South Carolina, who told NBC news that the US should consider leading a Sochi boycott to let the Russians know that "enough is enough" if they won't hand Snowden over.
"I love the Olympics, but I hate what the Russian government is doing throughout the world," Senator Graham is quoted as saying. "If they give asylum to a person who I believe has committed treason against the United States, that's taking it to a new level."
There seems little doubt that Putin is sensitive to such talk. In his remarks to journalists Wednesday he reiterated that Russia would take steps to ensure that Snowden will inflict no harm on the US during his stay in Russia, and he seemed to dismiss the whole matter as a minor tiff between spy agencies that shouldn't be allowed to interfere with serious politics.
"International relations, in my opinion, are more important than the special services' hassles," the official RIA-Novosti quoted Putin as saying.
A home in Russia?
In a lengthy interview with the Kremlin-funded English-language TV network Russia Today, which prefers to be called RT, Snowden's lawyer Mr. Kucherena said that his client had told him that Putin's demand that he do no further damage to US interests was "attainable."
"I believe that [Snowden] will be true to his word," said Kucherena, who has met three times with the ex-NSA contractor in Sheremetyevo, and says he questioned him deeply about his motives, beliefs, and intentions.
"From his replies, I can understand that he is an adamant human rights activist and when he says that his past employment duties blatantly violated universal human rights, he says it sincerely. Because he, unlike someone else, understands that he used certain methods to spy on people, to read their communication."
Kucherena said Snowden refuses to return to the US because he does not believe he will be treated humanely or get a fair trial.
"He fears for his life and well being.... [H]e is also afraid of torture, and that he could get executed. And what he says sounds quite convincing, because the US still administers capital punishment and torture," he said.
Political asylum in Russia would provide Snowden with documents enabling him to live in Russia and enjoy many privileges of a Russian citizen, and be renewable annually, he added.
"I?m not eliminating [the possibility that he might remain permanently] because he told me that he would like to stay in Russia. [In this case] he will become a citizen with all rights and privileges," Kucherena told RT.
