Sony Released "The Word's Best Selfie Phone" -- Sony Xperia C3

The Sony Xperia C3, claimed as the world's best selfie phone, was made official today. The selfie hype isn't dying and this smartphone is an evidence of manufacturers to go with the flow and showcase their innovation as well.

We know that Sony sensors are class-leading in terms of mobile photography, but what makes this phone extra special? As seen in the image above, the front-facing camera is not what we see everyday. It is bigger and comes with a LED flash. Sony says it produces perfect selfies anytime with its 5MP wide-angle camera (25mm) that also makes capturing landscapes and group pics easy. Its softwares are also optimized with its Superior Auto mode, HDR, Portrait Retouch, etc. The main camera is at 8MP and also performs well in low-light.

The device is also packed with 5.5" HD IPS display, 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 CPU, 8GB internal phone storage expandable with a microSD up to 32GB, 1GB RAM, 2500mAh battery, and also LTE connectivity.

The phone has a slim profile at 7.6mm and a lightweight body at 150g. However, I don't think it will help on holding the phone for selfie shots. It will launch on China first this August and then globally. The color options will be black, white and mint. No news yet about its pricing and availability in the Philippines.
