Sony Xperia Z3 full phone review

Sony announced its flagship another highly anticipated smartphone Sony Xperia Z3 with improved design and specs.

Sony have the great amount of success with Sony Xperia Z2 now officially debut its flagship smartphone of 2014 Sony Xperia Z3.

The Xperia Z3 is slightly smaller footprint. Vital statistics read 146.5 x 72.4 x 7.5mm and it weighs 154g. Sony has also kept in the IP55 and IP58 water and dust proofing that has become a highlight of its flagships, something that we’ve become particularly fond of.

Anybody thinking that the Xperia Z3 has opted to stick with the same 5.2-inch Triluminous 1,080p screen (with the same X-Reality engine) as the Xperia Z2.

Where the Z2’s brightness manages to hit brightness levels of 460 nits, the Xperia Z3 can reach 600 nits.

Consequently the Xperia Z3 should prove a lot easier to see in direct sunlight, something that we’ve all been craving since the very first touchscreen.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Sony has chosen to leave the 20.7MP camera that adorns the Xperia Z2 well alone on the Xperia Z3. Even the flash has remained the same, with Sony sticking by its single LED.

Sony hasn’t upped the RAM in the Xperia Z3, although as the Xperia Z2 already offered a whopping 3GB of RAM that is unmatched by the Galaxy S5 or the HTC One M8.

The same can’t be said for the Xperia Z3’s CPU, clocking in at 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 chipset has taken boosts elsewhere.

Company  has chosen to 3100mAh battery for the Z3. Just what effect this will have remains to be seen though.

Given that the Xperia Z3 is going to be Sony’s flagship handset, it makes sense that it is going to come with a flagship price tag. In the UK, this means a SIM-free price of £549 (around US$900, AU$975), with 24 month contracts likely to start at around £30 to £35 per month.
