Sony has introduced the mini version of the Xperia Z1 flagship that packs a smaller display but carries a powerful 20.7 megapixel camera, the Xperia Z1 Compact.

The Xperia Z1 Compact bears everything that makes the Xperia Z1 flagship standout: a premium aluminum body that is dustproof and waterproof, a 20.7 megapixel f/2.0 camera with 1/2.3″ Exmor RS mobile image sensor, 2.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU, 2GB of RAM, and Android 4.3 Jellybean.

The difference now is that the Compact sports a smaller 4.3-inch HD (1280 x 720) TRILUMINOS display with X-Reality at 342ppi, a smaller battery at 2,300mAh, and a thicker (9.5mm) but lighter (137g) body than the Z1.

Huwaei has launched the successor to their popular 6.1-inch smartphone of last year, now with beefier specs and LTE connectivity, the Ascend Mate2 4G.

The Huawei Ascend Mate 2 4G retains its predecessor’s 6.1-inch IPS EHD (1280 x 720) display with 241ppi and Corning Gorilla Glass. However, the insides are much different and has dropped the K3V2 chipset in favor of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 400 quad-core 1.6GHz SoC.

Huawei Ascend Mate 2

Huawei increased the RAM to 2GB, internal storage to 16GB, rear camera to 13 megapixel BSI with f/2.0 aperture, front camera to 5 megapixel, microSD card support up to 64GB, upgraded it to Android 4.3 Jellybean with Emotion UI 2.0, and added Cat4 LTE connectivity to the mix. Battery remains the same though at 4,050mAh but now sports a slightly thinner body at 9.5mm.
