The Sony Xperia XZ has now taken up as the best Xperia smartphone that money can buy. Pre-order for the device have received a lot of positive response.
Just like any other device, it is possible to notice flaws in the Xperia XZ. However, here are some of the top reasons why a potential customer should consider making the Xperia XZ as the next phone.
- Video stabilization
One of the highly criticized aspects of the Xperia smartphones have always been the camera quality. Even though the device has offered a lot of detail in the pictures by courtesy of having a larger megapixel count, it has not necessarily translated into image quality since Sony’s post processing has not been up to the mark yet. The Apple iPhone 7 and the Samsung Galaxy S7 are capable of much better quality in terms of pictures. The Xperia XZ is an improvement since it is now a capable alternative to the DSLR range. Sony has lifted several aspects from the DSLR camera like the 5-axis stabilization.
- Camera
Even though the camera remains largely similar to the previous generation Xperia devices, the phone comes with some crucial changes that are a major turning point. The autofocus ability has been improved with the new laser autofocus, while there is also a hybrid autofocus mode that will allow tracking of moving objects. Sony claims that the 23MP Exmor RS sensor can focus in less than 0.05 seconds.
- Design
The Xperia line-up of phones have always been known for their ability to provide a striking design and this is no different with the Sony Xperia XZ. Even though the all-glass design philosophy that was highly praised during the Z series existence may be gone, the metallic design of the Sony Xperia XZ will certainly appeal to users since it also provides more traction than ever before. In case of the all-glass design, users had to depend on a cover more often than not in order to prevent accidental slippage.
It has been reduced to a great extent on the new Sony Xperia XZ.
Even though that are such positives, it should be remembered that the Sony Xperia XZ may not offer the famed two-day better life promoted by Sony in the Z series. The Sony Xperia XZ seems to have only an average battery life, but the availability of quick charging feature may come as a saving grace for the phone.
