While Sony's Togari or Xperia Z Ultra and SmartWatch 2 have already been outed, the Sony i1 Honami still has not made it's official appearance just yet. However, leaked pictures that are actually clear (and not some blurry image) have appeared. The Honami is Sony's entry into the super-cameraphone arena with some impressive tech specs which include:

• 5-inch display (1080 x 1920)
• Qualcomm Snapdragon 800
• 20MP/13MP rear camera (Exmor RS sensor, G Lens, Cybershot, dual LED, Xenon Flash, Mobile BIONZ Image processing)
• Interchangeable lens

If you were wishing for a Samsung Galaxy S4, LG Nexus 4, Sony Xperia Z or HTC One without any contract but still at a subsidized price, then DiGi is the first telco to offer this type of deal. Covering four of the major smartphones in Malaysia, another thing setting them apart is that they all offer Google Edition versions although, we're pretty sure you won't get the Google Edition if you buy any of them except for the LG Nexus 4. While you won't be contracted for 12 or 24 months you will be signed on with a DG SmartPlan 58 but you can terminate the plan anytime without any early termination fee. In addition to this you will also get two months monthly fee waived. For more details on pricing check out the table below:

Sony's upcoming 6.44-inch phablet codenamed Togari will likely be revealed in a press event in Paris on 4 July 2013.

The Sony Togari phablet will likely be called the Sony Xperia Z Ultra and have the following impressive tech specs:

• 2.3GHz Qualcomm Quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor
• 2GB RAM
• 8MP Exmore RS Camera

• 10.1-inch display (1080p, 224ppi)
• 1.5GHz Quadcore Qualcomm S4 Pro processor
• 2GB RAM

Already, two major smartphones have become Nexus devices by going Google Edition and it appears that the Sony Xperia Z Google Edition is next in line. Admittedly still the flagship smartphone of Sony, the Sony Xperia Z will follow suit and go stock Google according to two separate Android rumour sites. Like the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One before it, the Sony Xperia Z will get faster Nexus-like updates but apart from the ROM, it won't get any hardware refresh so tech specs should remain the same.

Upcoming smartphones aren't just about Samsung, especially where Sony is concerned as their Sony Honami or i1 looks to focus all of Sony's latest display, camera, smartphone and audio technologies into a single device. Combining everything from Sony's BE2 Bravia Engine to a 16.2MP Cyber-shot camera the Sony i1 is rumoured to be a glass/metal fusion with carbon fiber and around 10mm in thickness. Other rumoured tech specs include:

• 5 inch Full HD Reality / Triluminos Display with X-Reality
• S800 + Adreno 330, clock unknown
• 2GB RAM
• 32GB Storage + micro sd slot
• 8/13/16.2 Mp camera, with BIONZ mobile (1/1.5"/1.1.6 Exmor RS sensor + G Lens + Xenon Flash/Dual Led/Plasma flash)
• S Master Walkman mobile + Liquid Magnetic Mobile Speaker
• 3000 mAh battery
• Android 4.2.2 or 4.3
• IP58 certification

When the Sony Xperia Z first came out one of it's main features that let it stand out from the crowd was it's IP57 water and dust resistant certification. This meant you could wash the Sony Xperia Z, have it fall into hot soup and still work fine. A lot of creative testing was done, from dipping and freezing it in chocolate to cooking it in the hotpot and in all cases the Sony Xperia Z came out working fine. The Sony Xperia ZR expands upon this feature by offering IP58 water and dust proof certification. How does it match up against the previous Sony Xperia Z? Read on and find out.
