Sony has three new phones to show off: the flagship Xperia 1 III, the more compact Xperia 5 III, and the more affordable Xperia 10 III. As is traditional for Sony handsets, the devices are particularly appealing in the camera and display departments.

Sony offered a glimpse of its first 360-degree audio speakers back at the online-only CES 2021 expo in January, with two units based around the company's 360 Reality Audio tech. Now the SRS-RA5000 and SRS-RA3000 are up for pre-order.

Just weeks after confirming a PlayStation 5 VR system is in development, Sony has now shown off the controllers. The new designs look lightyears ahead of the PS4’s clunky old sticks, and pack features from the PS5’s DualSense and Sony's competitors.

Following a number of online leaks, Sony has now officially announced the FX3 full-frame video camera, which combines technology from the company's cinema shooters with imaging features from the Alpha range of mirrlorless cameras.

Sony has confirmed that it's working on a new virtual reality system to take advantage of the PS5's impressive grunt, promising "dramatic leaps in performance and interactivity" as well as enhanced field of view, resolution, haptics and tracking.

Sony has pulled back the curtain on what it's calling the most technologically advanced camera that the company has ever released. The Alpha 1 leads the pack with a newly developed 50-megapixel sensor, 30 fps continuous shooting and 8K/30p video.

Sony has launched a new Xperia phone – but with the ability to act as an external monitor for a camera, 5G connectivity, a mini-HDMI port and a hefty price tag, the Xperia Pro is very different to a lot of the smartphones we're going to see in 2021.

Sony's mirrorless Alpha series cameras have become hugely popular filmmaking tools, thanks in large part to the company's excellent sensors. At this year's CES, Sony announced it's starting up a drone business specifically to work with Alpha cameras.

With colossal price tags to go with the colossal screen sizes, commercial applications have remained the main target for Sony's modular Crystal LED display technology. That continues with Sony's release of two new Crystal LED models.

Sony's WF-XB700 Truly Wireless Headphones wrap a workmanlike set of features into an intrepid design, delivering solid sound in a practical package that won't blow the doors off your bank account.

The year 2020 has been a strange and disruptive one for all of us, but the smartphone industry has barely slowed down and we've seen some fantastic handsets appear. These are our picks for the very best phones that launched in 2020.

Sony has added a pair of compact new projectors to its lineup, which it says are built for high quality images in classroom-sized environments. That doesn’t mean their value is limited to education settings, however.
