Brian Tong's live tour of Sony's 360-degree booth at CES 2013

2013-01-07
hey guys what's up Brian song here on the CES 2013 show floor you know how we do it like one of the best boots that I always get a check out here at CES is Sony smooth because they do so many amazing and different things so we're going to take you inside the booth we know that a lot of times we're not going to be able to show you everything you want to see we know sony has their press conference announcement that you'll be able to see here live at five p.m. pacific time but we did want to give you a sense of what sony is doing here at the show and i got a min i really feel like this is one of their best setups they've ever done before because it really feels spacious wide open they're doing a lot of cool things so let's just kind of walk inside this 360 array of video screens that sonia is showing off so when you when you walk around and you're in here you feel kind of feel like kind of like you're in the Sony spaceship like this capsule and they will be doing they showing a lot of cool original video content around these screens that's surround the entire stage now one of the hottest products that we're expecting to see here is the Xperia Z we know there's been a lot of rumors floating around see see all these things covered up in this shroud like if it's in this cloth you you can't really see I mean even if you try to look in there you can try like Charlie you can try I mean you can't see what's inside there so we're gonna hopefully I'm gonna get a glimpse of that but we expect to see that the presser but these are all clearly the Sony Xperia Z you know displays and set up so we're gonna walk through here I know I let you guys down didn't I I'm sorry now while we're walking through this tour booth we're gonna be here for a while so if you guys feel like you want to ask us any questions directly you can tweet me at brian Tong that's my Twitter handle BR iant LNG and I'm gonna try and answer some of your questions while we're here during the boots or because we want to be able to feel reach out and touch you ok so right behind me now here this is another set up here with the Xperia phones you can see like they're having them set up they're using their new wireless headphone set up as well and this is we don't see many phones coming out here at CES 2013 we know that they're starting to give them more towards you know TVs bake consumer devices and what makes that different is that now people are signed announce their phone products a lot later at Mobile World Congress so I right now my gut feeling is the Xperia Z might be the phone of the show I'm just saying that's my gut feeling so let's just walk around here now and kind of you some more of what Sony's booth has to offer okay so they're still working again they're still setting up these boots and perfecting them and fine-tuning them because really it's we're still a ways we're still a day away so there's a lot of stuff that has not been to finish it let's just kind of take a look and we can see all the workers here in the aisles kind of going at it again this is this is only the mobile section of the sony booth so it just gives you a sense of how much stuff oh right in my face how much stuff is really going on okay let's keep on walking down over here another cool feature that they're showcasing with there so many devices is this one touch capability right the little caption magic is just one touch away and what they're doing is enabling a lot of times we have you know NFC connections on our phones but how do we really make that a seamless transaction because we still have yet to see instantaneous OneTouch accident it takes some time you know if you mess around with google phone so what we have here we're going to walk down this aisle here these allow you things like one touch listening here the Xperia Z here you can touch to these devices and then they'll start playing the content whether it's music we also have one touch sharing again we've seen these in phones before but here in the US market xperia z hasn't seen the light of day I mean that's the phone that everyone's waiting to see and then also one touch marion very similar to like what Apple is doing with their you know ability to throw and toss content from your mobile device to your TV set what's cool is that instead of you having to switch to an apple TV and your input this is integrated directly into the TV set so just boom one touch and they're good to go so we're gonna keep on walking through the booths here and let's let's go over here to the 4k section because we know 4k stuff is really hot so come on over this way alright watch this oh man do you see that I tapped his right shoulder he still looked left this can this guy you know this could this guy knows the game that can I ask you a quick question is yes so are you you're here with the sony booth setting up um have you worked here on the sony booth before I have not this is my first year on the sony booth for sure at CES no 10 years at CES okay so what do you think of this booth compared to some of the other ones you personally seen whether you can say good things about things but we just want to get kind of an insider view right I love this booth doing the whole 360 it's unbelievable his first time this has been done in this just like this and I think it's great looks great it's open love it all right that's chris wilson i gotta drop his name because he knows don't tap his right shoulder he's going to look left okay thanks man all right so we're gonna keep on coming over here and we want to show you the 4k section inside of Sony's booth we know 4k is a huge buzz word and you know it's debatable of really what advantages you get obviously with huge large screen you're going to see the biggest benefit but in this specific area we kind of rotate around me Sony is giving different examples of the different uses of 4k television so right behind me see that that was like a matrix move right there you see that Charlie with the matrix move my goodness all right so here's this is blu-ray disc blu-ray discs will still have the ability to support 4k content we won't need any new discs for that so that's a good thing for everyone at home right we can also move down here they're showing off 4k 3d television a TV set one of the main benefits with 3d TV and the 4k technologies you have more lines of resolution so sometimes that crosstalk or if you're looking at images close up and they break down the fact that 4k does have a higher resolution should help with your 3d resolution if you're if you're into that stuff I'm I have a 3d TV you know we'll see that's all right okay so let's keep on coming down this way we got some other really cool stuff to show you this this guy over here though although it is a 3d TV this is there are 84 inch television set it is out and available right now but one of the cool things that comes with it because you really need this content to support the television set is if we walk over here there they offer when you buy this TV again it's 25 k it's a lot of money alright if we come over here let's see if we can get a click quick little sneak peek so it's also going to be able to come with a server that is loaded with content now when I tell you things are covered up look you will you can't tell what that is I've seen it I can't show you that but this is the new concept design this is because we're setting up right we can't show this to you what is the concept design that's like as good as a blurry cell phone picture on a blog right but that's their new server that they will give you with the 84 inch TV it will come loaded with 10 movies some short films with 4k content that will be delivered to buy really in order for for can really have a chance companies were going to need to give you native 4k content so we're gonna keep on rolling out over here okay let's see what else we have going on is this like the longest coolest tour ever I think so all right um let's just keep on walking down this way there's there's people clean up the floors there's a lot of static electricity I've been tempted I like folk someone and shot them but I won't do that and over here this is some really cool stuff these cameras behind me these are Sony's 4k cameras so when you want to get 4k content from a consumer standpoint how do you record that well they have examples of their 4k content and that second one on the left side that's a prosumer camera that we have yet to see you will see it soon just trust me on that but it's really shaped like that I think it's the HX 2000 model that is really the prosumer form factor they're making a 4k camera in that same form factor so pretty excited about that okay let's just come over here a little more we're gonna walk down to some of the cameras because sony has a lot of digital imaging products that are really great and one of the kind of cool things that I was able to see is the ability to use their camcorder technology we've seen if you're not familiar sony allows you to use your some of their camcorder lines as a projector right so if you record content you can project into them so we're gonna go over here right now to show you this really quick I might hey there you go see that a little hashtag did you see that that's pretty Nash tag yeah that's right content okay so we're not gonna be able to zoom into this that much but what happens is with these camcorders now a new product will allow you to take your camcorder which used to just show the content recorded but connect like a tablet connect like a laptop connect even a blu-ray player directly to the camcorder use it as a pass-through and then it'll shoot that image onto the wall so you know what guys I'm getting the sign I've got to go i love you guys I really do but we're going to be back after break the more press conferences lexus is coming up i'll be back here showing you more from the show floor you guys this is CES 2013 before it opens gotta love it all right we'll see you guys you
