Camera is the most noticeable section on this new flagship. Packing a 20MP BSI sensor, rear camera is expecting to deliver high-quality pictures just the other phones in the Z series did.

The new Sony Xperia Z4 is said to have 6.9mm in thick and 144g in weigh, which means it is 0.4m thinner and 8g lighter than its predecessor, the Z3. Sacrificing battery capacityis what the company has done to retain such impressive figure. Instead of 3200 mAh, the battery capacity on the Sony Xperia Z4 is reduced to 2930 mAh but the company believes that it can last for 2 days in normal condition. As you would expect from a flagship Sony Xperia, it is dustproof and waterproof at IPX5/8, IP6X, which means it can stay 1.5m under water for around 30 minutes.
