Sony Xperia Z
As far as high-profile smartphone launches at CES are concerned, Sony impressed us the most this year with the absolutely beautiful Xperia Z. From a technical standpoint, this phone hits all the marks that will make geeks happy—it's got a huge 5-inch, 1080p display, a state-of-the-art quad-core processor, and a 13-megapixel camera with HDR video capture. But where this phone really shines is design. While most smartphones seem to be growing more and more delicate, Sony has made the Xperia Z dust resistant and waterproof. Despite the all-glass construction, tempered glass and anti-shatter film promise to make this phone much more rugged than it seems. Throw in some innovative battery-saving software, and you've got one of the best smartphones at CES. –Alex Colon
Yotaphone
We love new thinking, and the Yotaphone's dual-display system is not only new, but surprisingly well thought out. Not a gimmick, the e-ink screen on the back of the Yotaphone can act like a custom case, display the time and weather, or store images like a boarding pass that you want to remain available even if you're doing something else on your phone. Plenty of other dual-display phones have entered the market and failed, but Yota actually thought through what you'll do with this. The company's dry sense of humor helps, too. –Sascha Segan_pcmag.com
