The Xperia Z2 delivers only the best from Sony craftsmanship. Carefully crafted using the most premium materials, it comes with a beautiful one-piece aluminium frame with glass panels that reflect the world around you. The 13.2 cm display, balanced with symmetry in design, provides a natural feel when held in your hand – no matter what angle you hold it.
The Xperia Z2 offers a 13.2 cm display with a stunning high screen to phone size ratio. This gives you a screen size that truly utilises the size of the phone. So when you are looking at something, the phone virtually disappears.
The Xperia Z2 is built with the latest Sony TV display technologies optimised for mobile. It comes with Live Colour LED, a brand new technology integrated only into Sony Mobile displays, for increased colour depth and gradation. And the IPS gives an excellent viewing angle and accurate colours from edge to edge. The large, high-resolution 13.2 cm Full HD TRILUMINOS™ Display for mobile with X-Reality for mobile picture engine has a 1920 x 1080 progressive scan, for incredibly crisp pictures free of jagged edges. Paired with a pixel density of 167 pixels per cm, you get pictures that are razor sharp and incredibly bright.
With IPS technology, the Xperia Z2 offers an improved viewing angle. So you get super sharp images and accurate colours, no matter which angle you’re looking at your device from.
Unique to Sony, TRILUMINOS™ Display technology creates a wider palette of rich, natural colours. With our BRAVIA® TV expertise, hard-to-reproduce reds, aqua blues and emerald greens are displayed beautifully, for a more vivid viewing experience and a heightened sense of depth.
TRILUMINOS™ technology uses LEDs, which emit purer reds and greens, creating a brighter and more uniform light that captures the true colours of the source. From lush landscapes, to natural skin tones – Sony delivers a significantly wider colour range. So you can view every moment in astonishingly authentic colour and breathtaking quality.
Live Colour LED is a brand new technology integrated only into Sony devices, giving you the world’s deepest and most intense colours on a smartphone or tablet display. This new innovation combines red and green phosphor with blue LEDs and customised colour filters to produce a brighter and more uniform light. Capturing true colours without the risk of over-saturation.
From still pictures and low-resolution videos to high-resolution movies, Sony’s unique image software engine analyses each image to optimise colours, sharpness and contrast, as well as reduce noise. The super resolution function reproduces missing pixels, for spectacular clarity and astonishing detail – bringing your favourite moments closer to Full HD quality.
The Xperia Z2 combines small 4K# video capture with a large 1.1 cm 20.7 MP Exmor RS™ for mobile image sensor, Sony’s award-winning G Lens and the intelligent BIONZ™ for mobile image-processing engine. This unique combination means the Xperia Z2 has the same quality and performance as a real compact digital camera. The result is images that are delivered with a superior sharpness, clarity and brightness – always.
Sony’s camera technologies combine to bring you detailed bright shots – even in challenging low-light conditions. The Exmor RS™ for mobile image sensor is an evolution of our Sony image sensor technology, with a next-generation BSI light sensor. It reduces picture noise while maintaining high resolution with a bright F2.0 Sony G lens, high sensitivity Exmor RS™ for mobile and BIONZ™ for mobile’s NR, pixel binning and by-pixel super resolution technologies. And with Superior Auto, it all happens automatically – no need to fiddle around with complicated settings.
Are you living life in the fast lane? Just keep moving – with the best camera phone at hand, your pictures will always come out sharp. The bright F2.0 lens and high sensitivity sensor enable you to take photos with a higher shutter speed. The BIONZ™ for mobile-image processing engine has Motion Detection – it chooses a higher shutter speed to capture blur-free images when your subject is moving. The Superior Auto mode does all the hard work for you.
