| Opera Ice coming to Android in February with WebKit functionality Posted: 19 Jan 2013 06:41 PM PST
It appears as though Opera is preparing to release an entirely new mobile browser for Android tablets and smartphones next month. According to Pocket-Lint, Opera Ice will feature baked in WebKit functionality, something the company’s previous offerings have noticeably lacked. Like we’ve grown accustomed to with other browsers, Opera Ice will be relying heavily on gestures for controlling key aspects of navigation. The redesigned browser will also feature tabs in the form of icons on the homepage, allowing users to easily access their favorite sites. Click here to view the embedded video. Lars Boilesen, the CEO of Opera Software, made it known that the company would not be ditching Opera Mini. “Opera mini is great, but it is not a fully-fledged offering like Chrome or Safari. There are too many sites it doesn’t work with.” Source: Pocket-Lint

| Display calibration software may be included on Sony Xperia Z and Sony Xperia ZL Posted: 19 Jan 2013 01:49 PM PST
Sony may be in the process of adding some screen calibration functions to their forthcoming Sony Xperia Z and Sony Xperia ZL smartphones. This will likely be a nice feature for those users who are interested in doing some fine tuning of the overall screen display for their device. A screen capture of the settings reveals the ability to adjust white balance, color saturation and color hue. The screen captures come from a Sony Xperia ZL handset. Assuming the function remains available on production units, it seems likely it would also be available on the Xperia Z. source: Xperia blog
