‘Human touch’- that seems to be a theme lately for building new customer base. After CES, Tom Waldner, head of creative product design seems very enthusiastic about the new Xperia-the Xperia Z and brings about a concept called ‘OmniBalance design’: “Omni means “all” or “everywhere” – it represents the omnipresence and the multitude of smartphone uses.
