Both devices represent iconic Sony craftsmanship with premium materials throughout, including frosted glass finishing to the rear and a subtly etched Xperia logo side engraving, as well as capless USB for quick connection and charging.
To the side, a new integrated fingerprint sensor power button means each device is personal, protected and easily unlockable with a simple pick up and press in one natural movement. It will also support the FIDO standard; authentication via fingerprint for online payment services.
Xperia Z5 Dual and Xperia Z5 Compact are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, featuring Octa-core CPUs, 64 bit capabilities and ultra-fast 4G LTE speeds.
Dual and Xperia Z5 Compact are equipped with Sony’s up to two-day battery stamina and innovative power-saving technology. Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 feature enables 5.5 hours usage with just 10 minutes of charging with a certified charger, such as the Quick Charger UCH10.
Xperia Z5 Premium Dual is the world’s first 4K smartphone with a sharp, vivid 5.5” 4K Triluminos Display for mobile and IPS, with pinpoint accuracy for the most natural images, at four times the resolution of Full HD.
Xperia Z5 Premium Dual will upscale content to 4K, enhancing any native or third party videos or photos. The mobile phone allows capturing of 4K video from which 8MP still images can be extracted.
The memory card from Sony’s 4K Action Cam FDR-X1000V can be used in Z5 Premium Dual to enjoy the footage immediately or simply connect to the big screen either wirelessly via DLNA or with MHL 3.0 to enjoy the content on a 4K TV.
Xperia Z5 Premium Dual, designed from the ground up as a high-performance mobile device, is also powered by the Snapdragon 810 processor. A high capacity 3,430 mAh battery lasting for up to two days, with quick charge capability eliminates
the need for regular charging.
