Specs and features
For one, Sony's latest flagship is a 5.2-inch phablet with a full HD display of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. This allows consumer to enjoy crisp visuals on a big enough screen. Compared to other rival flagships though, the Xperia XZ would fall behind the QHD displays with higher pixel resolutions of 2,560 x 1,440.
Other notable features of the Xperia XZ includes a 23-megapixel and 13-megapixel rear and front cameras, a powerful Snapdragon 820 processor, an ample amount of RAM at 3GB, a 2,900 mAh battery and a 32GB capacity for internal storage that is still expandable up to 200GB using a microSD card.
Sony finished the XZ's look with a metal body that looks sleek and feels premium to touch.
Against competition
Looking at the specs, the Sony Xperia XZ sure has a lot to offer to consumers looking for a high-end phone. However, in comparison to similar flagships from top smartphone manufacturers, the XZ might lose the competition due to the lackluster RAM and display. The Samsung Galaxy S7 is far cheaper and it offers similar features. Basically, the Xperia XZ would be an expensive choice against other similar handsets.
The Sony Xperia XZ is available on Amazon in Graphite Black and Platinum colors. There is a Forest Blue color that is not available at this point.
