Sony has been struggling with its mobile division for quite sometime now. The company has failed to release remarkable handsets that woo in customers. Sony, however, aims to change all that with its next flagship Android smartphone that will be?competing?directly with the Galaxy S III and the iPhone 5.
Sony CVP of Sales & marketing, Dennis van Schie said ?We will create in the near future a flagship model that can compete with Apple?s iPhone and Samsung?s Galaxy S III?.
In all probability, Sony is talking about its already leaked smartphone ? the Yuga ? which will sport a 5-inch 1080p display, 2GB of RAM, a 1.5GHz quad-core Krait processor, Adreno 320 GPU and more.?Sony expects to unveil this handset sometime at CES or MWC early next year.
What Sony fails to realize here is that the Galaxy S III has already been in the market for nearly 6 months, and by the time Sony actually releases its Galaxy S3/iPhone 5 competitor to the general consumer, the iPhone 5 would also be nearly 6 months old.
People would be eagerly waiting for the One X successor from HTC and the Galaxy S IV will just be around the corner. By then, no one would be interestedin this Galaxy S3 competitor from Sony. The company?s phone has been?consistently?behind HTC and Samsung in terms of both software and hardware, which has what led to its downfall.
Even now, the latest and greatest phone from Sony ? the Xperia T ? comes with a dual-core Krait processor and 1GB of RAM, while Samsung and HTC phones are coming with quad-core Krait processors and 2GB of RAM. Before you guys jump in and say that hardware is only one part of the story, let me tell you Sony is not really doing well on the software side. The company expects to roll out the Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean update to the majority of its devices only in early-2013. By that time, Samsung and HTC would have already updated their flagship handsets to Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
