Sony Xperia XZ2 appeared at MWC 2018, so we wanted to take some time to go over some of its best new features. Today, let’s come up with the best 5 Sony Xperia XZ2 features in our article below!

1. Updated 3D imaging

The last iteration of the XZ line of the brand Sony gave us a 3D imaging feature, which allows users to create 3D models of objects using the back camera. Rotating around your subject would create a fully editable 3D file which you could take into software such as Blender, Maya, and Unity. Sony has now enabled the front-facing camera to make it even easier to create 3D selfies.

Moreover, Sony also increased the quality of these models by giving more details to the objects you create with the camera. Meanwhile, the front-facing camera produces much cleaner 3D models, which looks great when transferred to modelling programs. This is quite a niche feature that most users probably won’t use it. However, it could rapidly speed up the workflow of a 3D artist.

2. 960 fps Full HD video recording

Last year, Sony shocked the world when it introduced 960 fps video recording in the Xperia XZ Premium. In details, the recordings capped out at 720p resolution and hardly ideal for an industry shift towards 4K. This year, the Sony Xperia XZ2 and XZ2 Compact are featuring a notch and maintaining the same ultra-high 960 fps, which now create 1080p Full HD video. The playback time cuts down from 6 secs (HD) to 3 secs (Full HD) while this ability is quite staggering.

3. Reactive vibration motor

Now you can feel the difference between a “tap” and a “buzz” from your device. This year, Sony takes this one step further by redesigning its vibration motor to react with movies, music, games, and other media. Moreover, the company wants you to be more immersed in your media. In details, you’ll want to hold your phone every time you watch a video or listen to music. Thus, there is an additional slider in the volume menu helps to adjust this haptics as you see fit.

4. 10-bit 4K HDR video recording

In 2017, a huge amount of video producers moved to Panasonic GH5 because it could record 10-bit 4K HDR video. Since very few cameras and no other phones can do this currently, Sony’s putting it on a phone is so incredible. In addition, having the ability to shoot in this profile gives videographers additional options when working in post-production. Moreover, you can play this video on any HDR-capable panel. Since YouTube now supports HDR content as well, this feature could end up in producing content for that platform.

5. Dual front speakers and internal DAC

Sony has fitted Sony Xperia XZ2 with dual front-facing speakers to give you the best audio experience possible. In details, the speakers go with an internal DAC, which enhances the audio quality of your music and videos. Unfortunately, the headphone jack was removed this time around. However, the internal DAC and support for high-resolution audio codecs (like aptX HD) will hopefully help users with wireless issues. Though all of the audio processing will be done on the phone, Sony is also including a dongle in the box with each unit.
