The Sony Xperia XZ looks like many Xperia phones you've seen before. It's rectangular with a flat top and bottom, and curved sides (the casing, not the screens). The three XZ colors, top, are joined by the much smaller Xperia X Compact. Look how easily the (metal) 5.2-inch XZ dwarfs the 4.6-inch (plastic) X Compact. The two phones share the 23-megapixel camera on the back, with which Sony has made its name in phones. Filters and extra apps are built right in. You can add expandable storage here.
The all-metal unibody design means no popping out that battery, It's slim without feeling too stark, The power/lock button works with a fingerprint scanner..unless you live in the US, Why?, A dedicated kajsa outdoor collection iphone xr wooden pattern case - light brown camera shutter button and USB-C charger port live toward the phone's bottom edge, For more on that charger port, read this explainer on USB-C in phones, The phone rebooted when the SIM tray's pulled out, Laser autofocus gives the rear camera an assist, The front-facing camera shoots with 13 megapixels..
The smaller Nova has a 5-inch screen, while the larger Nova Plus (sadly not Supernova) supersizes with a 5.5-inch display. Cast in Huawei's signature sand-blasted aluminium, the pair have slightly rounded backs that allow them to nestle neatly in your palm. Add together full HD displays, octa-core Snapdragon processors and USB Type-C charger ports, Huawei really has left no key feature wanting when kitting out the Nova range. Each phone also has an option for filtering out blue colours from the displays -- similar to the iPhone's Night Mode, other Huawei phones and Samsung's Galaxy Note 7. Plus you can double tap on the screen with your knuckles to take a screenshot, a feature that's also on other Huawei phones.
Aside from their slight size difference, the best way of telling them apart is by flipping them over, On the rear the Nova has a round camera set into the top corner of the chassis with a matching circular fingerprint sensor, The Nova Plus, on the other hand, has a more centred square camera module that protrudes from the device with a square fingerprint sensor positioned directly below it, The Nova's main camera is slightly bigger than the Nova's (16 vs, 12 megapixels) with the forward-facing counterparts measuring in at 8 kajsa outdoor collection iphone xr wooden pattern case - light brown megapixels on both phones, The primary camera modules are capable of face detection focus and contrast focus, as well being able to capture 4K video..
The Nova and Nova Plus will be available in Europe, the Middle East and Asia within the next two months. Dual-SIM versions will be available, depending on the region, and both will be available as 32GB models with expandable storage. Only European pricing has been announced: 399 euros for the Nova and 429 euros for the Nova Plus, which converts to $445, £335 or AU$590, and $480, £360 or AU$635 respectively. US availability is yet to be confirmed. The first great smartphone of 2015. Beautiful and bold..with complications.
