The Sony Xperia XZ1 has Sony’s Motion Eye camera inside. This means it has some of the features you’d expect to find on Sony’s Cyber-shot camera range. These include: manual focus, ISO settings, intelligent image processing, and more.The Exmore RS sensor also lets you capture sharp shots, even in low light conditions. So you’ll get impressive results wherever you shoot.Record stunning super slow-motion videoRecord video in ways you’ve never recorded before on the Xperia XZ1. Its Motion Eye camera can record video at up to 960 frames per second, which means you can slow the footage more so than on most other smartphones out there.The result is dramatic-looking footage filled with incredible detail, brought to life by slow motion recording. Shoot stunning sports footage for a slow-motion action replay, or moving objects to see them in a new light.Watch movies on a HDR screenOn a HDR (High Dynamic Range) screen, your movies will look better than ever. That’s because HDR makes colours stand out more, and makes them look truer to real-life. Expect more detail, and better textures, whatever you’re watching.Expand the 64 GB memoryA great camera means you’ll want to take lots of photos. There’s plenty of space to store them on the 64 GB internal hard drive. Need even more space? Then insert a memory card, and expand the storage up to 256 GB.Make your own 3D avatarEver wanted to create a 3D virtual model of yourself? The Xperia XZ1 lets you do just that. Get someone to scan your face for around 60-seconds to create your personal 3D avatar to use on social media, or have fun scanning random household objects, or pets. It’ll be the most fun you’ve had with a phone in ages.
