The new flagship Xperia handset, the Z is a quad-core beast with a whopping 5 inch screen, 13.1MP camera and is waterproof
The Xperia Z's huge 5 inch display is the most advanced Sony has ever made for a smartphone. It boasts a retina-busting 441 ppi (pixel density), full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) and the new Bravia Engine 2. Plus it has a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio (perfect for watching movies) and multi-touch (up to 10 fingers).
Expect zippy performance with Android Jelly Bean OS, 2GB of RAM, a 1.5GHz quad-core processor (Snapdragon S4 Pro) and 16GB of on board storage. The now obligatory micro SD slot (up to 32GB), NFC, Bluetooth, A-GPS, Wi-Fi and 4G connectivity all make an appearance on the Z.
A 13.1MP camera with Sony's new Exmor RS sensor is flushed on the back while a 2.2MP camera sits on the front. The main camera can record HDR (High Dynamic Range) video and capture HDR images even in low light. Those who have used Sony Cyber-shot cameras will be familiar with Xperia's revamped camera user interface.
The Xperia Z is rugged and tough which is quite unusual for a flagship phone bursting with high end specs. It's IP57 certified which means it can be submerged in up to a metre of water for 30 minutes and is dust resistant. Now you can tweet whilst in the shower!
Battery life is always a crux with any power thirsty, high end smartphones so Sony has tried to overcome this. They've fitted the Xperia Z with a 2,330mAh battery (non-removable) that has a nifty power saving feature called Battery STAMINA Mode. This increases the battery life up to 4 times by killing battery-hungry apps.
All of this cutting edge tech is trimmed down to a slender 7.9mm (thinner than the Samsung Galaxy S3!) and weighs just 146g.
Features you'll love:
- 5 inch display - full HD screen (1920 x 1080), 441ppi and the latest Bravia Engine
- Water resistant and rugged (IP57 certified) - can be dunked in up to a metre of water for 30 minutes, dustproof
- High performance - quad-core processor (1.5GHz), 2GB RAM, Android Jelly Bean OS
- 13MP camera - HDR (High Dynamic Range) pictures and videos

Fantastico
De todos os equipamentos que tive S.E e SONY este é sem duvida o "ultimate" ecra excelente, design lindo com perfeita construção e ergonomia extremamente fino mas nao é dificil de manusear, camera suberba tal como o som da coluna, a rentabilidade da bateria é que poderia ser melhor no entanto o modo stamina ajuda a aumentar em muito a autonomia, Smartphone perfeito tanto para momentos de diversao e saidas a noite como para Trabalho...Nao arrependo em nenhum aspecto de ter comprado pelo contrario surpreendeu em varios aspectos, A resistencia a agua/pó sao outros extras presentes neste magnifico equipamento sem duvida o melhor a nivel de design/construção/beleza no mercado

Best Sony phone to date
I have moved from Samsung S3 and extremely pleased with this device. The battery life gets better over first few charges and now I hardly spend more than 40% juice on a normal day.

Excellent work Sony
This is a real treat from Sony, great design, stylish, thin, light and better in hand than my previous smaller phone. Battery life in Stamina mode is again brilliant with over 2 days without charge. Its waterproof and I am comfortable in taking this to the beach!
