All types of Sony Xperia. Sony Xperia smartphones: lineup
Smartphones Sony Xperia, all models of which have their own characteristics, appeared after the termination of the agreement with Ericsson.
Sony Mobile (formerly known as Sony Ericsson Mobile) is a division of electronics giant Sony Corporation.
Xperia is a unique model range of the company, which was initially produced under the management of Windows Mobile OS.
Then technical management decided to switch to .
On this moment This line occupies a strong niche in today's market.
Some of the company's smartphones may benefit from being waterproof and moisture-resistant.
Sony Xperia smartphones - all models
All Xperia models
The Japanese giant is one of the world's largest manufacturers mobile devices, every year they completely update their line.
Their sleek, sophisticated design and serious technical characteristics attract new fans year after year.
Over the past few years, this manufacturer has often experimented with its new products, delighting its followers and premium flagships, and very budget models.
Everyone could find a sample for every taste and budget.
In the last 2 years alone, the company has launched 12 models on the market. Not to mention the lighter versions.
At the beginning of 2016, at MWC 2016, the company announced that it was completely relaunching the line of gadgets beloved by many.
According to the company, Xperia (which stands for experience) smartphones should provide users with a unique experience of interaction between gadgets and their owners.
It is these updated devices that our review will be devoted to.
First, let's divide them by year. Separately, it is worth noting that we will not separate them by colors and modifications with different memory capacities.

Sony Xperia XZ Premium
Those expecting a revolution in XZ Premium design will be disappointed.
Over the years, designs have become more refined, and loyal fans have realized the high value of corporate recognition. This is not just a recognizable trademark, it is a brand.
The company has certainly focused on the details for the new XZ Premium.
The main innovation is support for 960fps video playback.
This frame rate is still out of reach for many manufacturers.
Not many people at MWC could boast of this advantage.
To manage so high frequency video footage, which clearly outshines the performance of other devices and even last year’s own flagship 4K action camera, it was necessary to install the FDR-X3000.
This is the department's patented know-how digital processing images.
Cameras such as the RX1000 IV are famous for its use. It's all about its memory and array of sensors that allow it to capture images faster.
XZ Premium is equipped the most powerful processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC.
At first glance, the XZ "Premium" looks similar to last year's Xperia XZ. To give it a more expensive look, engineers used .
Moving on to the specifications, the XZ Premium features a 5.5-inch Triluminos HDR display with 4K (2160x3840) resolution.
The gadget is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 (Gigabit LTE speed is achieved through the use of an X16 LTE modem).
Also installed in the device is an Adreno 540 GPU video chip and 4 GB. 64 GB of internal memory, which is expandable with microSD cards(up to 256 GB).
The front of the device has a 13-megapixel camera with a 1/3.06-inch Exmor RS sensor. The phone OS is Android 7.0 Nougat, the battery capacity is 3230mAh.
In fact, we can talk about this excellent flagship for a very long time.
On the Internet there are photographs of copies that showed more than 150 thousand points in the Antutu test. This is a very impressive result.
Without a doubt, this flagship will excite the minds of users for a long time modern gadgets.
Surely it will be compared with devices with similar characteristics. But we can say with confidence that at the time of writing this review it is the best.
Specifications
- Display size: 5.5
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 835
- Rear video camera: 19 MP with Motion Eye technology

SonyXperia XZs
Smaller version of XZ. Both devices use the same design with a flat top and bottom, and rounded sides.
On right side The device has a power button, which also functions as a fingerprint scanner.
The XZs is equipped with a 5.2-inch screen (1080x1920 pixels) with Triluminos technology and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor with Adreno 510 GPU and 4 GB of RAM.
Inner memory is 32 GB and 64 GB with expandability thanks to the slot (up to 256 GB).

Sony, unexpectedly for everyone (many were counting on the appearance of the Z5 Tablet), released three new smartphones, and in addition, announced a change in concept (once again). The Z line is over, meet the updated X series.
Despite loud words about a change in concept, the Japanese continue to focus on the camera, time battery life and design. It's great that the new products are not left without powerful performance solutions: Qualcomm Snapdgragon 820, Snapdragon 650 and MediaTek Helio P10 are used.
I have already done some tests in AnTuTu. The results have not yet been allowed to be disclosed, but there is no need to worry about them. Everything is on the level.
The same applies to software performance. The animation flies and the menus switch quickly. A couple of times I experienced short-term freezes in the Sony Xperia X, but this is most likely due to the fact that the devices can still be considered prototypes. There is still a lot of time before the final release.
All smartphones should go on sale in Russia this summer, so developers have time to patch up shaky parts.
All three smartphones turned out to be very nice. On the one hand, the successors of the OmiBalance design, on the other hand, there are fashion trends: surfaces curved at the edges, minimal frame widths, and so on. Looks great, fits very well in the hand.
Still, it is no coincidence that all new products have screens with the same diagonal of five inches. It can be considered the golden mean in terms of ease of use. It is difficult to make out anything on a smaller display, and large devices are difficult to operate, especially with one hand.
There will be four body colors available for each model: graphite black, white, gold lime and pink gold. The colors are very stylish, in no way flashy, for which special thanks to the company. Still, we are all humans, not magpies. The main thing is to remember this.
Technical Sony specifications Xperia XA(model F3111):
- MediaTek Helio P10 MT6755 processor (64-bit, 8 cores) with a frequency of 2 GHz
- Mali-T860 graphics
- RAM 2 GB
- built-in storage 16 GB
- 5-inch IPS display, HD resolution (1280 x 720)
- front-camera 8 MP (Sony Exmor R, 88-degree lens)
- main camera 13 MP (1/3’’, Exmore RS)
- 2300 mAh battery (up to two days of battery life)
- OS Android 6.0
- connectors: Micro USB(OTG works), 3.5 mm
- Dimensions: 143.6 x 66.8 x 7.9 mm
- weight 137 g
- Communication: LTE (Cat 4), nothing is known about Wi-Fi and Bluetooth yet, NFC is available
- support for one or two SIM cards (Nano only)
- GPS, A-GPS, Glonass, FM radio
This model will be the most affordable device in the line. The Russian office of the company claims that the price will be quite reasonable, but, of course, with a reasonable adjustment for the dollar exchange rate.
Besides, I personally liked the Xperia X the most. From a design point of view, first of all. Still, thin frames (about 1 mm) make a difference.
However, there is something to criticize the smartphone for. The front side is devoid of oleophobic coating.
The display instantly becomes covered with fingerprints, which cannot be easily removed. A very unpleasant moment against the backdrop of everything else that was quite rosy. I hope that oleophobic protection will appear in the final samples and this disgrace will not remain in this form. I repeat, the device turned out to be very worthy.
The device also boasts good image quality. Below are some examples to evaluate the capabilities of the photomodule.
With all this, these are not final samples yet, so perhaps the quality will become even better. We will test by full program It's getting closer to the release date.

Xperia X is expected in two modifications: single- and dual-SIM versions. In the first case, the built-in memory will be 32 GB, and in the second it will be 64 GB. Everyone has support for memory cards. Keep calm.
The intermediate link is a key, but not the most productive device. The most balanced solution for those who do not want to overpay for maximum performance. Fortunately, the cameras are almost the same compared to the “flagship” of the new line. Examples of photos below.
The price for the new product was announced only on May 19. From the same day, the device will be available for pre-order for 39,990 rubles.

Have you seen what processor is installed in this device? I think everything is clear and so. The maximum is most likely expensive, beautiful smartphone. In addition, only this device has protection against moisture and dust according to the IP68 standard.
Finally, here are some examples of pictures I took with the Xperia X Performance camera.
All of the above originals can be taken from here and studied in detail on your computer.
Instead of output
Sony decided to relaunch the Z series and it turned out well. Beautiful, pleasant, but still expected devices. The company is trying to keep up with the times (installing Snapdragon 820, 2.5 glass, etc.), but also trying not to deviate from old developments in terms of design. It's a pity that there are no innovations or special features that would be unique to these devices.
Instead, the manufacturer decided to focus part of its attention on related devices— IoT. I will talk about these devices in the next article.
Release date: summer 2016 Price: not yet announced
I would like to express special gratitude to Sony and the Russian division in particular for the opportunity to test all the presented devices. As a result, journalists had the opportunity to try new products in a calm environment (without the Chinese and Germans breathing down their necks), and readers could watch beautiful footage, without any “security wires” and anti-theft devices.
During the half of 2017, Sony Mobile managed to release a whole bunch of smartphones. But which ones are the most relevant to buy? And is it worth choosing only from new products, maybe the “oldies” from 2016 are still good for something? Find out in this post!
This top was created solely in the opinion of the author and the main criteria are price/quality/relevance of the gadget. All prices are current as of June 19, 2017.
TOP 5 current Sony Xperia phones in 2017
5. Sony Xperia XZ Premium
The technological flagship presented this year will be an excellent purchase for all Sony fans and not only. The smartphone has become the successor to the Z5 Premium, has the highest specifications and will receive fast Android updates at least 24 months.
XZ Premium received a 4K screen, with HDR support, Hi-Res Audio, Motion Eye camera, which is capable of shooting video at 960 fps, Snapdragon 835.
The smartphone also has other features, for example: USB Type-C 3.1, water and dust protection according to the IP65/68 standard, the “Xperia Actions” function, which gives useful tips, and others.
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium will be a current smartphone for at least 2 years, and the performance will be enough for all 4 years.
Price: 55,000 rubles, sales in Russia have already begun.
The closest competitors from other manufacturers are:
- Galaxy S8 (55,000 rubles),
- LG G6 (52,000 rubles),
- HTC U11 (45,000 rubles, an excellent price for a flagship from an A-brand),
- iPhone 7 plus (63,000 rubles).
Each has its own quirks and shortcomings, but the Xperia XZ Premium stands out with its distinctive design and innovative camera.
4. Sony Xperia XZ
Yes, yes, exactly Xperia XZ (). It also has a sophisticated camera with its own features - an Exmor RS™ matrix, a BIONZ image processor and an RGBC-IR sensor. All this allows you to get good photos in any conditions.
The Xperia XZ is based on the Snapdragon 820, which will have plenty of power for another couple of years. The smartphone will definitely be updated to Android 8.0 update.
And all this splendor can be bought for 39,000 rubles.
3. Sony Xperia X Compact
Xperia X Compact () is a very nice smartphone. It was created specifically for those who love compact and powerful devices. It has the same camera as the Xperia XZ, 3 GB of RAM and Snapdragon 650, 4.6 inch HD screen.
The smartphone runs all games smoothly high settings, gains more than 70 thousand “parrots” in AnTuTu. The 2700 mAh battery allows you to use the smartphone for up to two days under moderate load. The X Compact will also receive updates up to Android 8.0.

2. Sony Xperia XA1
The mid-segment Xperia phone presented this year has good characteristics: 23 MP camera from the Xperia Z5, MediaTek Helio P20, 3 GB of RAM.
MediaTek may be confused (application optimization, etc.), but everything works smoothly, and energy efficiency is also good.
In Antutu, the Xperia XA1 scores just over 60 thousand points. It is worth mentioning that it has an HD screen, which is normal for 5 inches, but there are people for whom this may not be enough.
Using the smartphone with one hand is easy, and many will like the frameless design.
The Xperia XA1 runs on Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box, and should be updated to Android 8.0 in the future.
Price: 22,000 rubles.

Russian premiere of new mobile products of the new season
On the first day of summer, Sony presented its mobile news in Russia, choosing the Black Sea coast for this. In the city of Sochi, more than fifty journalists witnessed what several months earlier some had already had the opportunity to see on MWC exhibition 2016: the Xperia smartphone line, having changed the letter Z to X in its name, was replenished with four new models. Moreover, this time prices for official Russian retail have already been announced for three of them, so there is something to talk about today.
A full review of the main model of the Xperia X series will be released very soon, but for now we will dwell on the general points and differences inherent in the entire updated line. So, in order. Firstly, Sony is releasing not three, but four new smartphones in the new season, they are called Xperia X, Xperia X Performance, Xperia XA, as well as Xperia XA Ultra, about which the least is known so far. It is curious that he was the only one in the new line that differs in screen size. The other three devices received five-inch displays of exactly the same size, but the XA Ultra is a “shovel”. True, 6 inches is no longer a shovel by modern standards, but in the camp of new Sony Mobile products there is nothing larger at the moment.
Since we’re talking about the Xperia XA Ultra, we’ll immediately tell you more about it. It is known that this smartphone is equipped with a 6-inch display with Full resolution HD, runs on an eight-core 64-bit SoC MediaTek Helio P10 with 3 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory, and also has two cameras with a resolution of 21.5 and 16 megapixels, a microSD slot and a 2700 mAh battery.
The most interesting thing about this smartphone is the front camera: it’s difficult to understand what this is connected with, but the largest device to hold in your hand has an advanced selfie camera with its own flash and even autofocus.
The smartphone is really very voluminous, it is much larger than the iPhone 6 Plus. In terms of design, the largest of the new products is no different from the rest: all devices have almost the same appearance and color set (graphite black, white or gold lime). The future price of the new product remains a mystery.
The fate of the other three models is less mysterious; much more is known about them. The basis flagship line consist of the balanced Xperia X and its more advanced and expensive modification Xperia X Performance, and for lovers of budget solutions there is a surprise in the form of an affordable and at the same time interesting Xperia XA.
The Xperia XA not only has a design similar to older models, but unlike them, it can also boast a so-called “frameless” display, in which the width of the side margins is minimized. It looks really impressive, and most importantly, unlike most contenders for the notorious “frameless” design, it is not just used visual effect with painting, but in fact very thin sidewalls. Practice has shown that this does not in any way affect the ease of handling such a display; there are practically no more erroneous clicks.
The five-inch Sony Xperia XA, like the XA Ultra, runs on the modern Taiwanese flagship MediaTek Helio P10 chipset with eight working cores, has 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of ROM and a microSD slot, it has a 13 MP main camera with hybrid focus and 8 MP camera for selfies. The battery is not the most capacious - only 2300 mAh.
But it’s also worth noting that here, unlike the Xperia X, the back wall is not metal, but plastic (with metal imitation), and of course, the display resolution is half that (720p versus 1080p).
It seems that the most weak point The model is precisely the display resolution - only 1280x720, which is quite “budgetary”, but the accessibility of the smartphone is its main trump card. It is already known that the model will be sold in Russia at a price of 22 thousand rubles, and this, in principle, is quite unusual for a company like Sony, whose products have always differed as much as possible high prices. Here we're talking about, of course, about a mid-level device, not a top-end one, but still, journalists were enthusiastic about this price.
Xperia X and Xperia X Performance will naturally be more expensive, and significantly more so. There were no special surprises here: the cheaper Xperia X costs 40 thousand, and at the same time its platform is not a flagship at all. The S0C uses a six-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 650, and it's not even the eight-core version of the Snapdragon 652 used in the stripped-down LG G5 se.
Other specifications of the smartphone include: five-inch screen with Full HD resolution, 3 GB random access memory, 32 or 64 GB of the main array, a 23 MP main camera with predictive hybrid autofocus, a 13 MP front camera, which also boasts an automatic focus function, as well as a built-in battery with a capacity of 2620 mAh.
The smartphone supports LTE Cat.6 with maximum speed for downloading up to 300 Mbit/s, has a fingerprint scanner and metal case with 2.5D convex glass which, unlike the cheaper XA line, does not have a “frameless” effect. But the most surprising thing is that the device has lost the usual protection from water and dust, which was inherent in the past to most devices of the Japanese manufacturer of mid-level and above.
Xperia X Performance received protection (IP65/68), and this time it is the only protected device in the new line. A smartphone that costs 10 thousand more than its brother has a completely different hardware platform. The top solution Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 is already used here, it is supported LTE Advanced with a maximum download speed of up to 350 Mbit/s, and even the case itself is distinguished by a special brushed aluminum metal processing technology. True, it turned out that not all color options of the Xperia X Performance have this very “sanded” surface of the back wall. Even in the photograph you can see that the textures are observed only in the black and gray versions, and in the pink and lime cases the back wall is exactly the same as the regular Xperia X.
In general, all smartphones of the new X and XA lines are very similar to each other; outwardly they can be distinguished only by a few details. For example, the Xperia X Performance is slightly thicker than the Xperia X, but this can only be noticed when the smartphones are placed next to each other. The XA series is distinguished not only by its frameless front panel, but also by the location of the speaker grilles - here they are raised as close as possible to the ends. Well, the Xperia XA Ultra's six-inch display size speaks for itself.
It makes no sense to dwell in more detail on the characteristics of each model here; all this will be described in detail in separate reviews a little later. Now I would like to dwell on a few more general points outlined during the Russian presentation.
Firstly, Sony was concerned about preserving for more long term working condition batteries, which have now begun to fail more and more quickly with the constant use of “fast chargers” with increased current. Sony has always supported in its smartphones Xperia technology Qualcomm QuickCharge, but now it has been supplemented by Qnovo adaptive charging technology, which the company recently acquired for its own needs. This smart technology monitors and analyzes charging cycles and their schedule, independently adjusting the charging current. When the program understands that the smartphone is usually set to charge on long term(for example, all night), it will also reduce the current, allowing the battery to be charged in a more gentle mode.
The second general point, which may seem more negative to many, is associated with the so-called “hybrid” card slot. The fact is that until recently, Sony Xperia smartphones remained almost the only ones in which it was possible to simultaneously install two SIM cards and a memory card. This was the case in all dual-SIM models of the Xperia Z generation. Now Sony has given up: the user will be able to use either two SIM cards, or will have to remove one of them in order to install a memory card in its place. However, in Sony problems They don’t see this, believing that 64 GB of built-in memory is quite enough, and there is, of course, some truth in this.
You can also note the fact that Sony was the first to use, according to modern fashion trends, 2.5D glass on the front panels of its new devices. This glass has slightly sloping edges, it is easy to handle and looks impressive. True, gluing protective glass or film here becomes problematic, but manufacturers no longer care about such trifles.
It is worth paying attention to the clearly defined design style of the buildings in the new season. Color options are now available for most models: graphite black, white, gold lime, and rose gold. Finally, Sony has brought the design of its devices into full compliance, for the first time allowing itself to paint the front panels of the devices in the same colors as the body itself. Previously, regardless of color, the front panels under the glass of Japanese smartphones always remained black or white, but not in color. By the way, not only the panels, but even the design themes on the screen are now painted in a common tone, which allows you to perceive the design of Sony smartphones more holistically.
For smartphones Xperia series X several models will be available at once original covers: from pleasant to the touch to transparent silicone cases, which allow you to enjoy any of the new colors of the smartphone line, to more advanced, technological options with a transparent window through which you can control the functions of the smartphone without opening the cover. Quickly charge any smartphone Xperia line X will help new Charger UCH12, which supports technologies fast charging from Qualcomm and MediaTek.
And finally, once again about prices. The Xperia XA smartphone will go on sale in mid-June at a price of 22 thousand rubles, and the top model of the X line will cost Xperia smartphone X Performance - in early July at a price of 50 thousand rubles. Also available for sale at a price of 40 thousand rubles Xperia model X, pre-order for which was announced earlier. All new products will be available in the Sony Store Online branded online store, in the Sony Center network of branded stores and from key partners.
The first Sony Xperia XA owners who purchased a smartphone before the end of June 2016 will receive a three-month subscription to Google Play Music, ah Sony buyers Xperia X and Sony Xperia X Performance will receive additional privileges: six-month free subscription on Google Play Music, a voucher for 12 top movies from the Privilege Plus service and an additional extended warranty for the display, which makes it possible to replace it if damaged within one year from the date of purchase of the device.
