Lots of Sony Xperia C3 hands-on photos show up
Sony earlier today announced what was presented as “the world’s best selfie smartphone”: the Xperia C3. While the handset won’t be available to buy before August, a few Chinese bloggers already managed to spend some time with it - that’s because Sony held a press event in China to showcase the C3 there.
Resembling the 7mm-thin Xperia T3 (which was introduced in June), the C3 is quite thin itself at 7.6mm. The main selling point of the new handset is its 5MP front-facing "PROselfie" camera that offers a soft flash and an 80 degree field of view. Users can take selfies in several ways, including by smiling (thanks to a Smile Shutter function), or by tapping twice on the back of the phone.
PROselfie front-facing camera aside, the Xperia C3 features Android 4.4 KitKat, a 5.5-inch 720p display, LTE, NFC, an 8MP rear camera, quad-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon processor, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB of expandable internal memory.
Later this year, HTC might also release a selfie-centric smartphone which could be called HTC Eye.
