  • Hands On | Sony Xperia Z5 and Z5 Premium

    Hands On | Sony Xperia Z5 and Z5 Premium

    Sony might have been getting flak for being slow on innovation for the past few years. However, with the launch of the new Sony Xperia Z5 Premium along side the more mainstream Xperia Z5 and Xperia Z5 compact, the Japanese giant is ready to set the record straight.

    The Sony Xperia Z5 Premium is the worlds first 4k display equipped smartphone. Sony has also included a new fingerprint scanner at an innovative location, right on the power button. The fingerprint scanner makes it easy to unlock the device efficiently, its quick and very accurate, making it a pleasure to use.

    Sony has not done much about the design apart from adding a matte finish on the Z5 and a ultra glossy finish on the Z5 Premium which will be available in Gold or Chrome. The remaining  design is based on the use of metal as a structure and Gorilla Glass 4 on the front and back of all the devices.

    The premium with its 5.5 inch display is just a bit bigger and comfortable for most and also sits in the same size dimensions as the iPhone 6 Plus. Th rounded metal frame feels great and easy to hold.

    The 23MP camera is an immense pleasure to use, with the dedicated shutter button. Images are captured quickly and look sharp, especially thanks to the 4k display. The in body image stabalization that we were able to test also looks fantastic.

    While most of the interface is still designed like olden Sony Timescape, the UI is fast and responsive and looks glorious on the UHD display. Android 5.1.1 is pre-installed and will be updated frequently and promptly promises Sony.

    The front of the device also houses- boom sound style dual stereo speakers which is nice and loud. The audio is crisp and well balanced.

    Sony has been able to truly capture our attention with the launch of these new handsets, but do we really need a 4k display smartphone and how will it affect the battery life? These are almost the same questions we asked at the time of QHD display. Stay tuned for our Review on the Xperia Z5 and Z5 premium soon and check out the spec sheet below:

    Sony’s Upcoming Xperia Z5 to Allegedly Have a 23MP Camera

    There have been rumours about Sony’s alleged upcoming phone – the Xperia Z5. But as of today, reports suggest that there have been press images of the upcoming smartphone. The renders have not been confirmed, but according to them, we should see a 23MP main camera with 1/2.3” Exmor RS sensor.

    Xperia-Z5-Press_3

    This new camera is also expected to have an advanced focusing capability due to a hybrid autofocusing system. The alleged press images also show the smartphone in three colour variants – white, gold, and a shade of turquoise. However, the overall design of the phone looks to be the same.

    As mentioned, there have been no official confirmations about this phone, but they are expected to make their official debut on September 2nd, 2015. At this event, one can perhaps expect an unveiling of an Xperia Z5 Compact and an Xperia Z5 Premium too.

  • Sony Teases the Camera Capabilities of the Upcoming Xperia Z5

    Sony has recently put out up a teaser, of what is being rumoured to be the new Xperia Z5. The teaser mentions a ‘greater focus’ feature, which perhaps suggests a phase detection system.

    The company used their official Twitter account to reveal:

    https://twitter.com/sonyxperiagb/status/635851614083878912

    It is known that Sony has already implemented this in the Xperia M5, so therefore it seems likely. But there have been no official announcements. Even the idea of a Z-series is speculated, however, there have been many leaked images of an alleged Xperia Z5 and Z5 Compact.

    All we can do now, is wait for the IFA Berlin event and see what happens. Watch this space for exclusive updates.
