Xperia™ ZR - A Closer look: Experience filming underwater in Full HD

 Sony's new Android smartphone, the Sony Xperia ZR, has a trait not often seen in today's high-range smartphones: it can be submerged 5 feet deep under water.

Its level of water resistance — IP55 and IP58 — is a bit better than Sony's current Android flagship, Sony Xperia Z, which is IP55 and IP57 compliant, meaning it can be submerged into 3.3 feet of water.
Bear in mind that, for both devices, this specifically means "fresh water," meaning you probably shouldn't take it with you for that ocean dive, but it's still a very nice feature to have, especially with the summer approaching.
s for the rest of the Xperia ZR's specs, they're the same as the Xperia Z: a 4.6-inch screen, 1.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 13-megapixel camera and 2GB of RAM. 
The camera lets you shoot full HD videos, and the device's Exmor RS image sensor lets you take HDR photos and videos, all of which could result in some stunning underwater footage if you're not scared to get a little wet.

Sony Xperia ZR will become available globally (in black or white) in Q2 2013 at a yet-undisclosed price.

Oppo Find 5 Phablet With Pixel-Topping 1080p Display Revealed

Oppo has revealed its phablet competitor to the LG Intuition 4G on Verizon Wireless and the Samsung Galaxy Note on AT&T and T-Mobile USA as well as the Galaxy Note II in the form of a 5-inch smartphone called the Oppo Find 5. The device features a pixel-topping 1080p HD display in that form factor, giving it a resolution of 441 ppi. It’s unclear if the human eye can really discern anything above a 300 ppi display, but this one is definitely looking to out-retina Apple’s Retina Display on the iPhone.
The display would be a five-inch panel with a resolution of 1920 X 1080 pixels. The device would compete with HTC’s rumored 1080p HD phablet with a similar 5-inch screen.

The Oppo Find 5 will be powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor.
Additional details are scarce on the Oppo Find 5, including whether or not the device will support 4G LTE network connectivity or if it will be limited to 3G HSPA/HSPA+.
On the part of the HTC phablet, which has the model number HTC 6435LVW, Engadget is reporting that the device will be powered by a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, which is contrary to the quad-core S4 Pro rumors we’ve heard of in the past, and also 4G LTE connectivity. That device will also support the N-Trig active digitizing technology that was found in HTC’s Flyer tablet and will give HTC’s latest tablet competitive specs to the Galaxy Note and Galaxy Note II in terms of supporting pen-enabled handwriting support. Samsung says that the Note II uses active digitizing technology from Wacom.
