Description

The Sony Xperia XZ3 is a high-end Android flagship phone - and the company's first to come with an OLED display. With 6 inches of screen space, HDR support, and front stereo speakers, the XZ3 is designed to be a capable multimedia device. The top-of-the-line Snapdragon 845, backed by 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, are under the hood.

The 3330mAh battery can be recharged wirelessly.

Xperia XZ3 is beautiful
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I wish such beautiful devices by Sony are made available all over the world. The OLED Panel, user interface, camera (even with single lens) , music listening & all media consumption is top notch. Slightly bigger battery would have made it just perfect

Xperia XZ3 is Beautiful
Phone owned for less than a month

I wish XZ3 got more time and marketing support so that it could reach to more people. Though now the focus is on Xperia X1, however XZ3 comes with beautiful design and build quality . The price is now attractive to buy it.

Dog Day Afternoon
Phone owned for less than 3 months

Hello guys
Today we are going to a company with a brilliant but forgotten record
Sony and Flagship 2018
The release of the XZ3 model showed Sony is now looking to change the misguided policy of the past،And now we have to wait for the glorious return after integrating with the electronic group and introducing the Xperia 1
Well, the test time has come and this smartphone is in use for about 2 months
Design:
Firstly, the design, well, really has a good progress, at first the glass surface and the front of the device, the curved edges of the screen and the arch behind the device, the device is easily placed in the hand and the back of the device is a sensation of ergonomics, the body of the body is very good. And it feels like a high-quality smartphone
Display:
Maybe at first, it's still an extra frame, but it's not annoying at all, but it should be accepted that there are a lot of frames in its own ranks, the OLED screen is the first change in Sony's company, after years of it's finally The panel was used on Sony, it should be said that the screen is incredibly stunning, it's crisp and bright, and the depth of black is enough for me.
Camera:
Unlike XZ2 Premium, Sony has used a 19-megapixel lens similar to the XZ2
Of course, perfectly advanced software development, details and colors are recorded thanks to the excellent Spectrum color sensor, but we still have trouble shooting in low light, high noise and lack of optic stabilizer, the camcorder was super-slow and 4K was superb. And we were attracted to, the presence of porter effects in the original and selfie camera, despite the modest single module was nice.
Hardware:
The Sony XZ3 comes with powerful hardware, the Quellcom Snapdragon 845, along with the RAM 6, keeps you happy, super fast response, perfect gaming performance, and AI along with a powerful 1 Gigabit Modem to meet all your needs quickly.
Software:
No difference, the only description for the user interface is xz3, there are three lower navigation buttons and a simple and usefriendly environment, but a difference, Sony's side sence system is unique, with the help of artificial intelligence and double-tapping the edges of the software page. The functional and the options used in each section are suggested to you, which is functional,Android 9 made us happy

Finally:
It can be said that there are gaps in progress on Sony, and I'm looking forward to the release of the Xperia 1 to touch the upgrade of this brand of Japanese brand name.
