Red Nexus 5 holds up all native KitKat features which you can expect like white icons in status bar, buttery smooth Android KitKat UI and a beast when it comes to performance.

Red Nexus 5 Review

Quite from some time we have seen Nexus 5 in Black and White but Red Nexus has created a sensation among users who would like to taste other vibrant colors in an era when Sony and Apply have launched their recent flagship device in many vibrant colors and Google was sticking to Black and White only.

If you have also bought a Red Nexus 5 then do let us know, do you like its Bright red color or it seems a bit odd to you like some users complained. Drop your comments below.

Xperia G Live Pic Leaked beneath Xperia Z1 – Is it Sony D5103 ?

After using many alphabets it seems Sony Mobile will use now “G” with its Xperia lineup, just now @ViziLeaks has leaked first live pic of Xperia G where it is placed beneath Xperia Z1. Except the name and pic of Xperia G nothing has been leaked regarding specifications of Xperia G from the original source, except that it has mediocre specs. It is pretty clear now Sony is gearing for more Xperia smartphones in Q1 of 2014 as we have already seen Sony D6503 Sirius in various alleged pic previously and today also where it was put besides Xperia Z and Xperia Z1.

Have a look at the pic of Xperia G below, you can clearly see that its right profile looks exactly similar to Xperia Z1 Compact but the frame size of Xperia G is a bit smaller than Xperia Z1 may be a 4.6″ screen display or a 5″ inch screen display in a smaller frame like Xperia ZL and Xperia ZR.

[ UPDATE – 15 Feb ]

Xperia G specifications Leaked – 4.8″ display,8 MP rear cam,1 GB RAM ?

Xperia G Leaked Pic

Xperia G follows same “Omni-Balance” design, bigger external camera shutter key and the frame of Xperia G looks like made of plastic; it may be the color saturation but nothing can be said right now.

Xperia G Specs Leaked

Yesterday we spottedSony D5103 in GFX Benchmark database featuring a  720p HD display ( 1280×720 resolution )  powered by 1.4 GHz quad core processor MSM8226 Snapdragon 400 and Adreno 305 GPU and running KitKat android version. Well there may be a chance that Sony D5103 is Xperia G actually but no confirmation on it also. We have tweeted to @ViziLeaks, not expecting a reply though confirming the same.

What do you think guys regarding Xperia G, Sony’s new device to capture mid range device market. Drop your comments below.

White Sony D6503 Sirius vs Xperia Z1 vs Xperia Z Real Pics Comparison Leaked

Till now we have seen Sony D6503 Sirius in various alleged leaks showing it by the side of Xperia Z1, its full KitKat UI, its 4k Video Camera app and 60fps recording in 1080p video mode well just now saw some more clear pics of Sony D6503 Sirius in black and white color, besides Xperia Z1 and Xperia Z where you can exactly compare the dimensions of each phone. As per leaks  Sony D6503 features android 4.4.2 KitKat with a new refreshed Xperia UI, Snapdragon 800 processor MSM8974AB SoC, 5.2″ disply with IPS panel and Triluminos display for mobile, 16 GB onboard memory with 3 GB RAM and 20.7 MP rear cam.

Two pics have been leaked by a tipster from Digi-Wo where he has shown Sony D6503 Sirius in comparison with Xperia Z1 and Xperia Z. If the tipster is to be believed he says “Sony D6503 is Xperia Z2 whose listing will go live in April and it comes with Sony logo no longer printed on anti-shatter film“. We can’t confirm the exact model name of Sony D6503, for the time being take this info with a pinch of salt 😉

Let’s have a look at real pics of Sony D6503 Sirius.

White and Black Sony D6503 Sirius are shown in below pics.

White Sony D6503 Sirius Real Pics

Sony D6503 Sirius vs Xperia Z1 vs Xperia Z Real Pics Comparison

If rumors are to be believed Sony will announce Sony D6503 Sirius and Sony SGP521 tablet at MWC 2014 event on 24 Feb, hope we see them there. Commercial name of Sony D6503 is still under shadow and no leak till now have confirmed that it will be called Xperia Z2, but it will take over the legacy of Xperia Z1 and Sony SGP521 tablet will take over Xperia Tablet Z as new flagship device.

Like the pics fellas ? Sony D6503 is no wonder, it seems just a facelift version of Xperia Z1; we are more interested in knowing about Sony SGP521 that what Sony is holding for a new flagship tablet. Drop your comments below.
