Sony Xperia XZ Premium Design
Start Sony Xperia XZ Premium’s design. The front panel will remind you of the old phone of Sony’s Xperia series. Above the screen is the ‘glass loop surface’. The company has used 2.5D curved Gorilla Glass 5. But it gives it a separate identity that is very reflective. In any kind of light, the rear panel feels a mirror. Overall, the smartphone will also work to prepare itself. By the way, at first glance, we found the luminous chrome color variant of this phone of Sony at first glance. However, some people may have a completely premium look. It is certain that if this phone is in your hands, then everyone’s eye will definitely go on the handset once.
The phone was slipping very easily in the hands. Apart from this, fingers also knock, ie you have no choice but to take precaution and repeated cleaning. Probably the back cover comes in handy. But this will hide the look of the phone.
The phone has a fingerprint sensor which has found a place in the middle on the right side where there are usually power or volume rockers. And this is also the power button. There is nothing new in the setup. We have already been aware of this setup in handsets like Sony Xperia Z5 and Sony Xperia XZ. In the limited time spent with the smartphone, we found that the fingerprint sensor worked fast. It was also easy to reach it due to the position. There are volume buttons just above it. The top is 3.5mm jack at the top and USB Type-C port at the bottom. A separate button is given to capture photos on the right side. There are sim and microSD card slots on the left side.
This phone with a thickness of 7.9 millimeters fits the hands, but gives a feeling of being a little weighty (191 grams). It will not be easy for you to keep it in your hands due to weight. By the way, we would like to mention the convenience and problems only after using it for a long time. For this, you have to wait for the review of the handset.
Sony Xperia XZ Premium Display
At the launch event, the company told loudly about the display of the handset. The Xperia XZ premium has a 5.5 -inch IPS LCD screen like Xperia Z5 premium, which is a resolution of 3840×2160 pixels. This type of resolution is usually not seen in the handset. The company says it has threaded the 4K HDR technology of Sony Bravia Television in a small screen. At first glance, you will not be shocked when you look at the screen. Because generally content is full-HD resolution. But as you can investigate the photos taken from the photo gallery or camera, 4K HDR technology will start appearing. We will be able to know how powerful the content looks on the screen only through review. But screen is very diverse in terms of colors. Brightness is suitable, there will be no problem in reading in daylight. This will prove to be your trusted partner for media entertainment.
Sony Xperia XZ Premium Camera
In important features, it comes after the display that the motion eye camera of Sony Xperia XZ Premium. The 19 -megapixel sensor given by Sony is capable of recording slow motion videos at the rate of 960 frames per second. Yes, smartphone with 240 FPS capacity smartphone in the market slowed down four times. For this, the company has used a three -level seamos sensor. We recorded some slow motion videos in limited time spent with smartphones. The output impressed us. However, the final decision will be left for review. Slow motion mode is a togle to activate inside the camera app. You will have two options. If you want, record the entire video in slow motion. Or in a common video, activate the slow-motion capture according to your desire. The camera app is very simple and easy to use. It has modes like manual, superior auto, Panorama and 4K videos. The sensor of the front camera is 13 megapixels which will be enough for selfie and video chatting.
This is the first phone to be launched in India with Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor. Due to the latest processor, there was no problem in any activity. The app gave a fast response. There was no problem in switching between them. Jugalbandi of the processor is from 4 GB RAM. In common use, we do not think that there should be any problem. However, the real performance will be gauged only after the benchmark results. Inbuilt storage is 64 GB which is enough for common users. But if the need is more, there is also support for microSD cards up to 256 GB.
The Xperia Xperia XZ with dual sim (Nano SIM) will run on Android 7.1.1 Nougat. It is equipped with 4G VoLTE. It also has high-raise audio support. The battery is 3230 mAh which supports quick charging. There is also stemina mode to monitor battery consumption. But in view of the screen size and its resolution, there is a little doubt about the battery capacity. Which may go away during the battery life test in the review. The company is also offering a quick charger with the phone. It has been claimed to charge the battery 60 percent in 45 minutes. Common Sony features like Smart Actions, Dust and Water Resistance are also part of this handset.
Our thoughts
The name of this Sony phone has a premium, so the challenge is also from handsets like iPhone 7 Plus, LG G6, Google Pixel XL and Samsung Galaxy S8+ in the market. Sony Xperia XZ Premium has submitted its claim in the least price. In the coming time, it will also be challenged in the Indian market with handsets like OnePlus 5 and Xiaomi M6, which will be available very cheaply. And they are also equipped with Snapdragon 835 processor. Now the question is whether it is really a strong handset. Will this money be a profitable deal? At first glance we will say that it is different and stylish. The camera and display strengthens its claim. Any decision on the performance will be correct only after the review. In such a situation, we will ask you to wait for a few days. But if you want, you can take advantage of some breathtaking offers being offered by the company to book pre-order.
It is to be known that Sony India has raised the expenses of our correspondent for the launch event.
