It's no surprise that Sony just announced their new selfie-centric smartphone today after teasing it yesterday. The Xperia C3 is being touted as the “world's best selfie smartphone” with its “PROselfie” cam along with specific selfie apps. It sports a 5 MP front-facing camera along with a soft LED flash and Superior Auto Mode.

The rest of the specs include a 5.5-inch 720p (1280 x 720) IPS display at 267 ppi, a quad-core 1.2 GHz processor (probably a Snapdragon 400), Adreno 305 GPU, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage, microSD slot for expanded storage, 8 MP rear camera with an Exmor RS sensor, Dual-SIM compatibility, and 2.500 mAh battery. It comes in at only 7.6 mm thick and weighs only 149.7 grams.

The Xperia C3 will be available in black, white, or mint and should be available in August starting in China.

Robert lives in upstate New York where he was born and raised. Technology was always his passion. His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.
