/PRNewswire/ --

Xperia T and Xperia V combine Sony's best HD experiences,

easy connectivity

with 'One-touch' sharing enabled by NFC and award-winning arc design

Sony's media applications introduce a consistent user experience across Sony

devices including the new Xperia Tablet S

Xperia J makes stylish smartphone design affordable with a standout screen size

Sony Mobile Communications ("Sony Mobile") today announced a new range of

Xperia™ smartphones, along with the first Xperia Tablet from Sony Corporation

at the consumer electronics show IFA. Featuring in the upcoming James Bond

cinema release

Skyfall,

Xperia T (also coming in a variant known as Xperia TX

for some specific markets) is the new global flagship model, providing Sony's

best HD smartphone screen, camera and easy 'One-touch' functions enabled

by NFC (Near Field Communications)

.

Xperia V shares many of the same great

features with Xperia T, but is also LTE enabled for superfast network

performance and comes with the highest level of water resistance in

smartphone. Xperia J has eye-catching design with a stand-out screen size for

consumers looking to combine great style with affordability. Xperia Tablet S

brings Xperia to the world of tablet for the first time. Xperia T will launch

globally over the next few weeks. Xperia V and Xperia J will launch globally in

calendar Q4 2012.

"This year's IFA marks an important milestone for Sony and Sony Mobile

Communications. Xperia smartphones are at the heart of Sony's mobile

strategy of delivering a consistent user experience across devices, enabling

consumers to easily and quickly access the world of entertainment that Sony

delivers," commented Kunimasa Suzuki, President and CEO of Sony Mobile

Communications.

Xperia smartphones: best of Sony's technology and design

Xperia T and Xperia V combine Sony's best screen, camera and connectivity to

provide consumers with the best HD experience with which to enjoy content on

any screen, any time. Xperia T, Xperia V and Xperia J build on the same design

language first introduced by the award-winning* Xperia arc and Xperia arc S -

combining a slim form factor with an emphasis on the display for excellent

viewing.

More entertainment with Sony's media applications and Music

Unlimited

Sony's media applications ("WALKMAN®", Album and Movies) combine the best

of Sony's technologies and connect consumers to a variety of entertainment

services. They form an integral part of the UI on Xperia smartphones, tablets

and VAIO PCs to deliver a consistent and superior entertainment experience.

Through the

"WALKMAN"

application, consumers can easily enjoy Sony's

recommended sound in ultimate clarity and presence across the entire spectrum of

sound by just activating Sony's ClearAudio+ mode***. A wide variety of music can be

accessed from this application, including consumer's music stored in their PCs, a list of

songs "liked" by a consumer's Facebook friends and millions of songs through Music

Unlimited.

The

Album

application combines an intuitive user interface that enables consumers to

view, sort, and share pictures with an ability to consolidate photos posted on social

media such as Facebook.

Consumers can enjoy video content in high picture and sound quality through the

Movies

application. It also provides movies synopsis from the rich database of

Gracenote.

Furthermore, with

Album

and

Movies

applications, consumers can remotely

enjoy their photos and movie content stored in their home digital media

servers.

Xperia smartphones shipping from September until the end of the year will

come with a free 60 day trial of

Sony Entertainment Network's

[

**]

cloud-

based digital streaming music service

Music Unlimited

giving consumers the

opportunity to subscribe directly from their Xperia and enjoy access to millions

and millions of tracks.

'One-touch' functions for content sharing

Sony is putting NFC at the heart of content sharing through its 'One-touch'

function, taking NFC beyond the traditional uses such as eticketing and

payments. Now, consumers can easily and instantaneously enjoy their music

and photos across an array of NFC enabled Sony devices, by simply touching

one to another to establish a wireless connection without a cumbersome

pairing process. For example, Xperia T and Xperia V users can stream music

wirelessly with 'One-touch' to the new Sony SRS-BTV5 NFC enabled speaker,

also announced today at IFA.
