Once again the quality is very high indeed, but It’s worth noting that the camera will shoot in 8Mp 16:9 by default so you’ll need to head into the setting if you want the full 23Mp at 4:3. ![]() It might not be a huge upgrade from the Z5 but these sensors help to take accurate, in-focus shots extremely quickly, which we can vouch for during our time with the smartphone. The technology is comprised of three sensors – an imaging sensor for movement, a laser autofocus sensor for measuring distance and an RGBC-IR sensor for accurate colour reproduction. We also love that Sony continues to offer a dedicated camera/shutter button on the side, but what’s new here is a triple image sensing technology. On the surface, it’s the same as the Xperia Z5 with a 23Mp sensor, f/2.0 aperture, 24mm lens, phase detection autofocus and an LED flash. Sony is well known for fitting advanced camera tech into its flagship phones and the Xperia ZX is no different. He Xperia XZ is arguably all about the cameras – an area where the firm likes to stand out. It’s nice to see a company veer away from the standard silver, grey and gold variants. While the shimmer is generally understated, when the back catches the light it lights up with a gorgeous hue, and we’re a fan of all three variants – Forest Blue, Mineral Black and Platinum, with Forest Blue winning our top pick. The rear of the Xperia XZ is made from a high purity ‘alkaleido’ metal, which provides the smartphone with a rather unique and shiny finish – albeit a slippery one, so be aware. It’s mainly at the top and bottom where there’s a lot of nothing, although we appreciate that it does offer front facing stereo speakers. It’s a bit of a shame to see that Sony hasn’t done much to cut down on the bezels here so the Xperia XZ is quite big for a phone with a 5.2in screen. Although you can definitely see lines where materials meet (the small strip at the bottom on the rear seems unnecessary), the phone does feel nicer in the hand compared to the Xperia Z5. Sony calls this Loop Surface, and is designed to make the phone appear seamless whilst making it more comfortable to hold at the same time. The XZ houses a 5.2in display encased in a metal body which is notably curvier than with previous Xperia smartphones.
