The specs of the Sony Xperia XZ certainly does look good. Especially with their 23-megapixel camera, 4K video and 5.2-inch 1080p display, plus it’s IP65/IP68 dust-tight and water resistant.
“The flagship Xperia XZ is slated to arrive October 2nd at Amazon, Best Buy and other retailers. Priced at $700 unlocked, the unlocked model supports GSM networks while packing in a 5.2-inch 1080p display, Snapdragon 820, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage that can be expanded via a microSD slot. The XZ also has a USB-C port to keep up with the times and features like 4K video and enhanced image stabilization for its 23-megapixel camera. It’s also IP65/IP68 dust-tight and water resistant for added protection from the elements and any unforeseen accidents.
The mid-range Xperia X Compact will go on sale September 25th in the States, a few weeks after making its debut in the UK. A smaller 4.6-inch device, the X Compact is priced at $500 unlocked with a 720p display and the same 32GB of storage, a microSD card slot and a USB Type-C jack as the Xperia XZ. The GSM-compatible X Compact also touts that 5-axis video stabilization that Sony offers on the larger phone. All of features are driven by a Snapdragon 650 chipset alongside 3GB of RAM and an Adreno 510 GPU. And yes, the same 23-megapixel camera that’s on the XZ is here as well. If you can’t wait an extra week for the XZ, the X Compact still offers some of the same features as its bigger and pricier companion.”
