Sony Xperia V to feature sensor-on-lens display technology

Sony has confirmed that the upcoming Xperia V will feature a special sensor-on-lens technology.

This will allow for a decrease in display thickness, as well as for a more direct touch experience with whatever is being displayed.

The new technology will allow Sony to remove the extra sensor layer located between the display and the lens, and create a type of hybrid layer that combines lens and sensor. This brings a 5% improvement in display luminance, as well less haze.

The removal of the extra layer also helps decrease overall weight and thickness, although Sony has not stated by how much the Xperia V has slimmed down thanks to the innovative feature.

The Xperia V was introduced at this years IFA as part of Sony’s new lineup. No word from Sony on whether any of the other Xperias introduced there will feature sensor-on-lens layers as well.

Latest iPhone 4S ads feature Zooey Deschanel and Samuel L. Jackson

Apple doesn’t usually hire celebrities to endorse their products. In fact, the last time I remember they hired somewhat popular actors was in their Get a Mac series of ads with Justin Long and John Hodgman back in 2009. So it’s curious to see popular actress Zooey Deschanel and all-round badass Samuel L. Jackson in the latest iPhone 4S commercials airing in the US.

Both the ads revolve around Siri, with the actors finding out things and getting things done using only their voice. It’s the usual stuff, like finding out a restaurant nearby, settings or cancelling reminders, and playing music. Stuff that we have seen before in older 4S ads, except this time it’s a bit special because of the actors.

The ads don’t feature a single carrier, with a different carrier name appearing at the end every time although the ones we have featured here both display AT&T’s name. You can check them out below.
