Sunday, September 29, 2013, 14:00 GMT+7

Some thousands of young tech-lovers have visited Sony Show 2013, an electronics expo hosted by Sony Vietnam, in Youth Culture House in Ho Chi Minh City’s District 1.

Sony Vietnam this year decided to leave and organize an independent event for its own products after years of taking place in the framework of the Vietnam Computer World Expo (VCW).

The 3-day event has showcased all the best that Sony Vietnam can bring, from latest Xperia Z1smartphone to 4K video camera, 4K TV, VAIO Tap 11 tablet, QX10 and QX100 "lens-style" cameras, and movie glasses HMZ - T3 – a kind of wearable display.

In addition, Sony also brought dedicated and processional multimedia solutions, as well as civil solutions, to the event.

Also on this occasion, Sony announced their latest figures in the Vietnam market. Accordingly, the company ranked first in the sales of TV, laptop, camcorder. It ranked second in travel camera and Android-run smartphones.
