With the Sony Xperia XZ Premium, Sony brings the super slow-motion feature on the RX100 series to the smartphones. Although it can only capture a fraction of a second with each trigger, the resultant slow-mo footage is almost 6 seconds. Within the same video session, it is possible to trigger multiple sessions of the slow-motion capture. I just need a gap of 2 seconds before I can fire another 960fps capture.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1401\" src=\"http:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sony-xperia-xz-premium.jpg\" alt=\"Sony Xperia XZ Premium\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sony-xperia-xz-premium.jpg 600w, https:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sony-xperia-xz-premium-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sony-xperia-xz-premium-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/sony-xperia-xz-premium-420x420.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The other feature is the 5.5-inch 4K UHD display with HDR and sRGB with a 138 percent spectrum, offering the most detailed mobile experience when watching ultra high definition video content. The colour tone and contrast are stunning without looking over-saturated or over-sharpened. Sony maintains the thick bezels that are actually practical for gripping the phone without touching the display. Something&#8217;s got to go, and for XZ Premium, one has to embrace its size. It is hard to believe that a smartphone of this dimension houses just a 5.5-inch display.<\/p>\n<p>Audiophiles will not be disappointed with the audio processor that rivals the Sony Walkman series. The Xperia XZ Premium supports high-resolution audio files up to DSD, and LDAC wireless audio codec. The front-facing stereo speakers deliver clear and good-sounding audio.<\/p>\n<p>As an Android smartphone, the UI feels smoother, the pre-installed apps and guides are welcoming for the consumer who is new to Xperia. The battery management is intelligent enough to switch to slow-charge when plugged in overnight. The remaining battery estimate is also very accurate after monitoring a few days of your usage patterns, and I have no problems with the phone lasting the entire day.<\/p>\n<p>With a reflective glass back and mirror-like finishing, the Xperia XZ Premium is simply eye-catching. The Corning Gorilla Glass 5 front and back is surprisingly easy to maintain because of the oleophobic coating, and hairline scratches are hardly visible given the reflective design.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Verdict<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Rating 4.5\/5<\/p>\n<p><em>Sony Xperia smartphones are uniquely designed unlike most other manufacturers.
