Most of you should already know about Android 9.0 Pie and it will be available on quite a number of Android phones this year. Aside from the Google Pixel series, it seems that both Sony Mobile and HTC have officially announced a list of phones that are getting the update via over-the-air (OTA).

The price tag of RM3299 is not an uncommon sight for flagship devices these days even though some Malaysians would shake their head, especially when it comes to Sony smartphones. Why is that?

Well, if we look back at their track record - it's a bit of a rollercoaster ride. One day you have a pretty good smartphone, then suddenly there would be another one that has no idea what it is made for. In this review, I'll be taking you through the pros and cons of their new Xperia XZ2. Let's go!

We are now entering the second half of 2018 and it's been quite exciting. We have seen a few cool and innovative smartphone features, so in this article piece, we will look through at the new awesome stuff from various smartphone brands introduced, with no particular ranking in order. Without further ado, let's take a trip down the memory lane at the Top 7 Innovative Smartphone Features So Far!

Six months have gone in a flash and we are now entering the second half of the year now. There are already quite a few impressive and powerful flagships, how do we know? Well, thanks to AnTuTu, they just recently released a Top 10 Best Performing Phone just last month. Obviously, most of them are running on Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 but there's one surprised phone to see at number 2, which happens to be the vivo NEX.

Released in Malaysia since March 2018, Sony Mobile is continuing the Xperia XZ series with the latest Xperia XZ2 and XZ2 Compact (which we don't have at the moment). Here we have the Liquid Black model and as a flagship model, the Xperia XZ2 features a Snapdragon 845, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a 5.7-inch Gorilla Glass 5 display in Full HD resolution, a 19MP primary camera but a 5MP front camera, 3180 mAh battery and many other cool features which you can check out in our hands-on video below!

Today, Sony Mobile is proud to announce that the latest Xperia XZ2 and XZ2 Compact will be coming soon to Malaysia in the month of April. Customers can start to pre-order the Xperia XZ2 on 23 March until 4 April 2018 at RM3299 with a special bundle which includes - a pair of Sony ZX770BN wireless noise cancelling headphones, a hardshell premium backpack, Sony exclusive Touch n Go card (RM100 pre-loaded), a phone case and a screen protector. As for the Xperia XZ2 Compact, it's priced at RM2899. Below is a recap of the tech-specs and hands-on pictures.

Before Sony Mobile officially unveils a mysterious third new member later on today, the Sony Xperia XZ2 and Xperia XZ2 Compact are now official and boy, they look so different from the traditional rectangular-ish design! Without further ado, below is the official tech-specs list and its features as well.

After what seems like forever, we may finally see a new phone design from Sony Mobile with the leaked Sony Xperia XZ2 and XZ2 Compact. Coming courtesy of @evleaks and his Venture Beat site, the leaks show a 3D glass back which looks a lot like the HTC U11+ for the XZ2 while the XZ2 Compact is expected to go polycarbonate plastic.

If we can sum up the smartphones of 2017 it would be the year of the "sequels" because most of them had little changes. While some were really great products, some of them were also quite questionable. So before we get on with the rest of 2018, let's take a look at our Top 12 phones to look forward to in 2018 in no particular order.
