Sony Xperia W1 Concept Teased by Kiarash Kia: New Handset With Windows 10 Mobile
I’ve mentioned it before, but I feel like I need to do it again: the Xperia series started with Windows Mobile, not Android and it may at some point return to that direction. That’s why the concept created by Kiarash Kia and shown below isn’t exactly surprising.
It’s only a teaser for now, but more shots will be coming soon. This model is generically called Sony Xperia W1 and comes with Windows 10 mobile. In fact, there’s a whole series of W1 devices, including the Xperia W1, W1 Plus and W1 Slim. Considering the latest Xperia releases, they’ll probably be Windows versions of the Xperia Z5, Z5 Compact and Z5 Premium.
23 megapixel cameras are expected, plus side fingerprint scanners, 3 or 4 GB of RAM and Snapdragon 820 CPUs, too. Glass at the back and front should also be here.

Hasan Kaymak Presents: iPhone 7S Without Headphone Jack and With Hardcore Speakers (Video)
There’s no shortage of iPhone 7 and Samsung Galaxy S7 concepts, just like there’s no shortage of rumors. Everyone’s favourite speculation is the one saying that the next iPhone isn’t going to have an audio jack. And that’s exactly what Hasan Kaymak envisioned.
Hasan Kaymak created the iPhone 7S concept, that adopts a new design language, that doesn’t include an audio jack. This model has an aluminum case with extruded top and bottom, where the speakers are placed. The designer mentions dual diamond cut edges, with the front and back slightly rounded, but otherwise we get something called “diamond edges”.
Curves are present on the top and bottom and there’s a more metallic feel to the front side of the handset. Crazy as it may seem, this model has a microSD card slot, impressive stereo speakers, Full HD retina speaker and an overall nice look. iPhone 7S is a model with a premium design, a full aluminum body and finally strays from the norm of such renders.
