Full HD TRILUMINOS™ Display with X-Reality for mobile

Xperia Z Ultra is the big screen phone that uses the very latest screen technology developed by our BRAVIA® TV engineers. The large, high-resolution 6.4” Full TRILUMINOS™ Display with X-Reality for mobile comes with a 1920 x 1080 progressive scan, for incredibly crisp pictures free of jagged edges. Paired with a pixel density of 342 pixels per inch, you get pictures that are razor sharp and superiorly bright.


X-Reality for mobile

user posted image
For clearer, more vivid pictures

From low-resolution web videos to high-resolution movies − with Sony’s latest picture engine, exclusive X-Reality for mobile – everything you see on Xperia Z Ultra’s big screen is analysed and selectively processed to give clean, clear and lifelike pictures. Three unique noise reduction features work their magic prior to upscaling. While Sony’s intelligent display technology analyses each image to optimise pixels, texture, outline, colour, contrast and noise, creating the best viewing experience possible.


Blazing fast performance

user posted image
The world’s fastest smartphone processor

We’ve matched the latest Sony software with the all new, super powerful Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 800 processor. This advanced Quad-core processor is 75% faster than S4 Pro and gives you maximum power and speed with outstanding battery time – run multiple apps simultaneously, surf the web with little loading time, and stream videos without a break. The Snapdragon 800 processor is asynchronous, which means each core is powered independently. So you get the precise amount of power when you need it, without wasting power when you don’t.


Breathtaking graphics

GPU: Adreno 330

Delivering up to 50% increased graphic performance (compare with Adreno 320), the updated Adreno 330 GPU (graphics processing unit) gives you the most advanced and visually stunning 3D games, and lets you browse the web lightning fast – all while using the lowest power consumption.

sony has yet rep to their speaker 'quality'
same as xperia Z.
anyways can anyone quote me about the heat issues of this device?
if its the same as xperia Z i might as well wait for note 3, one max,nokia's 6 inch phablet.
edit: i noticed that on the 1st page stated the battery is 3050mAh
isn't sony announced before it was 3,300mAh?
*
I need double confirm the battery capacity as I can't find at Sony site, I get details from GSMArena.

Any owner can help me confirm on battery capacity? smile.gif

Please add me in the user list for black color, was getting it at Ikano, and it's even come with the free gifts. I was surprised at first as the Sony store at curve refused to sell it before the release date on the first August.

So seems the weakness is the input via pen, hope Sony can improve in near firmware even though I believe I will not frequent use it but some user might need it.

As for loud speaker, I never put high hope on it.
