Sony Xperia Z - Black (VSXPZ)

Exceptional performance, everyday endurance

Connect and create with an immersive, responsive screen, see images in vivid HD detail, and take high-resolution photos with a powerful camera.
See how Xperia™ Z can give you much more than you expect from a smartphone.

A screen as detailed as HD TV
See incredibly clear, vivid pictures on the 5" Full HD Reality Display. We use the same expertise for our mobile screens as we do for our BRAVIA® TVs,
so you can expect the same exceptional picture quality, even on the move.

True colours in all light conditions
Take photos and videos with natural-looking colours, even in poor light conditions. Its HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology takes your photo several
times at different exposure levels, then layers them to create the most natural effect.

Tough enough for your lifestyle
Water-resistant, dust-resistant and tough as metal. This smartphone is made only from premium materials, from the aluminium power and volume buttons
to the durable tempered glass front and back.

No cables, no buttons, no confusion
Like to share content with friends on the big screen? One-touch controls mean you can connect to another device with a single tap. Near-field communication (NFC)
technology means there's no need for cables, wires, or fiddling with settings.
