The Sony Xperia Z3 was officially presented at the beginning of this month of September, while its landing in stores in Spain will take place during the month of October with a starting price set at 700 euros. A few days ago we had the opportunity to carry out a thorough test of the Sony Xperia Z3, and despite the fact that in it we already highlighted the most interesting news of this smartphone from the Japanese company Sony, this time we are going to take a look at the functions secrets that this terminal hides. Specifically, we are going to know five secret functions of the Sony Xperia Z3 that it is probable that we still do not know or that, at least, they will be curious to us.
5 secret functions of the Sony Xperia Z3
1. - Payments with NFC
One of the most outstanding novelties of the new iPhone 6 from the American company Apple has been the payment system using NFC technology. Although it is a technology focused on a very specific payment system, the truth is that the Sony Xperia Z3 also incorporates NFC connectivity that allows the user not only to make payments from the mobile, but also other tasks such as, for example, connect the mobile with another device with a simple touch between both terminals.
2. - Screen recording
All mobiles with the Android operating system incorporate some option to take screenshots, but the Sony Xperia Z3 presents an interesting novelty in this regard: it also allows you to record the screen. That is, instead of making a simple capture in the form of an image, we have the possibility of making a video recording in which the same screen will be seen as the one we are viewing at that moment. This option is accessible at any time from the screen lock button, which we must press and hold for a few seconds to show us the option to record the screen.
3. - Smart screen rotation
The automatic screen rotation of the Sony Xperia Z3 incorporates a technology that prevents the screen from automatically rotating in certain positions where this option is not necessary. For example, when we are lying in bed with the mobile it is usually quite common for the screen to rotate automatically when we do not need it, and the technology that the Sony Xperia Z3 incorporates seeks to minimize precisely that problem.
4. - Gesture control
The gesture control is a novelty that already included as standard with the Sony Xperia Z2, and in the case of the Xperia Z3 controls gestures available are: two touches on the screen to unlock it, turn over the terminal to mute a call and bring the mobile closer to your ear to answer a call automatically.
5. - Pauses during video recording
Another secret of the most remarkable features the Sony Xperia Z3 within the section of the application of the camera, plus camera modes we've talked about before, is the option to pause a video recording. With this option it is possible to pause while recording a video and then resume it when we are ready to continue recording.
