Xperia™ Z3 Compact Quick Reference Guide
Back in January 2014 Sony introduced Xperia™ Z1 Compact – its
first waterproof compact smartphone that didn't compromise on
premium technology. Xperia™ Z3 Compact offers the same
compact size without compromising on experience for those who
'demand great'; presenting the cutting-edge technologies found
in Sony's flagship Xperia Z3, all packed into a stunning
waterproof compact smartphone.
This guide is designed to give you some key stats and easy-to-
use assets, so that you can produce thorough and engaging
reviews as quickly as possible.
Beautiful, compact, waterproof, powerful
Xperia Z3 Compact has the highest waterproof rating in the market, (IP65/68)
and does so in a
1
beautiful, compact form. Its liquid reflection frame and tempered glass panels, give the device an
elegant, premium feel, whilst its compact design (just 8.6mm thick) and light weight (just 129 grams)
mean that Xperia Z3 Compact is perfect for one-handed use and fits easily into any pocket. Xperia Z3
Compact is designed to offer a striking design (including two new colours - orange and green), powerful
performance and premium features.
Tip 1: Try comparing the Xperia Z3 Compact back-to-back with an Xperia Z1 Compact. You will
notice that despite the larger screen, the Xperia Z3 Compact has an identical body size, and is even
slightly thinner (8.6mm vs 9.5mm).
A battery life of up to 2 days
2
Battery life is consistently one of the top areas where consumers want to see more from their
smartphone and in Xperia Z3 Compact Sony has given them just that. Tweaked improvements across the
phone including a new, high-density 2,600 mAh battery and a innovative, super-efficient display that
uses its own memory to reduce the demands it makes on the processor, provide up to two days battery
life
3
under active use - meaning you don't ever need to worry about being too far from a power socket.
More information on the testing conditions for this claim is available here.
Plus, with the latest version of Sony's
Battery STAMINA
mode, Xperia Z3 Compact users can extend the
time between charging even further. With STAMINA mode turned on, the smartphone will intelligently
switch apps off when the phone's screen is turned off, starting them again as soon as it turns back on.
In this way, stand by time can be increased by as much as four times.
Tip 2: Try loading up the settings app, going in to "power management" and turning STAMINA
mode on / off to see the difference it makes.
The world's best camera and camcorder in a compact
smartphone
2
Xperia Z3 Compact builds on the tradition of
Sony's
Xperia
smartphones
as
industry
leading mobile cameras using Sony's 20.7
MP 1/2.3" Exmor RS for mobile sensor
partnered with a G-Lens and its BIONZ for
mobile image processor. Now with a new 25
mm wide-angle G-Lens and an ultra low light
mode that allows photographers to shoot
using an ISO 12800 setting, 4k video
recording (for the first time in a compact
form
factor),
and
a
new
version
of
SteadyShot™ with Intelligent Active Mode (a
new, improved image stabilizer for video),
Xperia Z3 Compact is building yet further on
its predecessors' impressive capabilities.
