Sony Xperia Z5 Premium

The Design

The Sony Xperia Z5 Premium marks the continuation of the signature Xperia OmniBalance design, making it similar in look to previous devices in the line to a significant extent. At 7.8mm thick, it is slimmer than the Xperia Z5 Compact, but thicker that the ordinary Xperia Z5.

The device features a durable metal frame with the word ‘Xperia’ etched into it as well as mirror-like rear.

The design is premium as its name suggests. Sony Xperia Z5 Premium will be available in chrome, gold and black finish. It is water and dust resistant while its redesigned power button has a fingerprint sensor embedded.

Grand Display

The main talking point on Sony Xperia Z5 Premium is its display. The handset crams in a massive 5.5-inch display a breathtaking 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels and a jaw-dropping pixel density of 806 ppi!

If you don’t understand what this means, just imagine a display with a resolution four times that of Full HD. Amazing! Sony calls this ‘the world’s first 4K smartphone.’

That display gives you the same quality of viewing experience you get on latest, high-end TV sets. Sony Xperia Z5 Premium has ability to upscale lower-resolution content as close as possible to 4K.

Whether the packed pixels will be noticeable to the average user is still open to debate.

Heavy-duty Camera

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium packs a robust main camera of 23 megapixels with Pulse LED flash and super-fast Hybrid Autofocus. The wide-angle shooter has 4K video recording capability and a SteadyShot with Intelligent Active Mode that lets you capture stable videos.
