The Sony Xperia Z5 is already official, but it has not arrived alone. The rumors of the last days were true and Sony has also announced the arrival of a more compact version and a premium edition, which is the model that concerns us in this analysis. The name is quite obvious, Sony Xperia Z5 Premium, and makes it clear that we are facing a more advanced model than the normal Z5, in which there are not so many new features. The star feature of this terminal is its 4K resolution screen, a figure that no other phone manufacturer has yet reached. We tell you all the details about the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium below.
Camera and multimedia
Sony had not made major improvements to its flagship camera for quite some time, keeping its 20.7 megapixel Exmor RS sensor from the Sony Xperia Z1. In this case, Sony has finally added remarkable changes, starting with its 23 megapixel sensor and the hybrid focus system, which according to Sony can focus on objects in just 0.03 seconds. It is also capable of recording videos in 4K resolution, has an optical stabilizer and Sony's superior automatic mode, which adjusts the parameters of the shot according to the lighting conditions.
Sony usually adds several sound improvements to their phones and the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium was not going to be less. The device features two speakers on the front, with the xLOUD bass enhancer and the Clear Audio + filter for clearer and clearer sound.
Power, memory and operating system
The heating problems of the Sony Xperia Z4 and Sony Xperia Z3 + have not prevented Sony from betting on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor , although in this case it is a more stable version that should not cause temperature problems. The chip offers 64-bit support and has eight cores. It is accompanied by an Adreno 430 graphics processor and 3 Gb of RAM. In the case of ROM memory, the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium will be marketed in a single 32 Gb version , but can be expanded up to an additional 200 Gbwith MicroSD memory cards.
How could it be otherwise, the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium comes standard with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, the most current version of Google's mobile platform, and comes with Sony's visual layer. It includes the entire suite of Google applications and other exclusive Sony applications such as PlayMemories, Sony Entertainment Network or the PlayStation certificate.
Connectivity and autonomy
As is usual in other high-end Sony products, the connection profile of the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium has everything you need to take full advantage of its features. It connects to the Internet through 4G or 3G mobile networks and has a dual-band WiFi port. It also includes Bluetooth 4.1, GPS antenna, NFC chip, supports the DLNA standard, ANT + for sports accessories, WiFi Direct, MicroUSB and headphone jack.
The Sony Xperia Z5 Premium takes advantage of its size to integrate a 3,600 milliamp capacity battery. Sony has not offered specific details about the autonomy, but they assure that with the STAMINA mode a duration of two full days is achieved without going through the plug.
Availability and opinions
Sony comes out strong with the launch of three new smartphones within its Xperia Z5 range, with the model featured in this article as the most cutting-edge and risky proposal. The Japanese brand had not surprised us for a long time with its Sony Xperia Z range, maintaining a too homogeneous line due in part to its cycle of biannual presentations. The Sony Xperia Z5 Premium is the answer to those who asked for substantial improvements, although perhaps they have gone a bit. Sony can already say that its new smartphone is the first with a 4K screen, which is very good as a slogan, but is that much resolution really necessary?The debate about the density of pixels that the human eye can distinguish is fueled by this model, which sports a panel of 800 dpi density, which is said soon. What we are going to notice is the increase in its price, but at the moment Sony has not revealed this information. In addition to the screen, which by the way is also a bit larger, the other important difference with the Xperia Z5 is its stainless steel design and that it has DLNA connectivity.
