As promised on Tuesday, Sony India kicked off the sale of its flagship smartphone, the Xperia XZ, in the country. Priced at Rs. 49,990, the Sony Xperia XZ is now available via Amazon India and retail stores nationwide. The new Sony flagship was unveiled late last month with an MRP of Rs. 51,990. Customers who pre-booked the smartphone will get a free Sony SWR30 SmartBand worth Rs. 8,990 with their Xperia XZ unit My True Care.
The biggest highlight of the Xperia XZ is its three rear camera sensors. According to Sony, the CMOS sensor can track and predict the movement of objects in the frame, reducing the chances of blurred shots. The smartphone also packs a laser autofocus sensor, making the camera better at locking focus on objects, especially in low-light conditions. The RGBC-IR sensor aims to provide accurate color reproduction. All this is backed by the 6-element f/2.0 Sony G lens, a 23-megapixel Exmor RS sensor, and Sony’s own ‘Bionz for mobile’ image processor. You now also get manual control over focusing and shutter speed.
Sony claims the 13-megapixel wide-angle front camera packs an Exmor RS sensor that’s 2.6 times bigger than the selfie camera seen on “regular flagship phones.” The phone is IP68 certified, making it dust and water-resistant. The 5.2-inch full-HD display features Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection. The Sony Xperia XZ variant launching in India is a hybrid dual-SIM unit with 4G VoLTE on both SIMs. This model also comes with 64GB of inbuilt storage, compared to 32GB on the single-SIM variant. The Snapdragon 820-powered Sony Xperia XZ packs in 3GB of RAM, features USB Type-C connectivity, and is powered by a 2900mAh battery. The Xperia XZ was initially unveiled at IFA 2016.
