Product details

The Xperia X is Sony's new top model. The smartphone fits perfectly in the hand thanks to the high-quality metal design. But it's not only the stylish exterior that is convincing: the redesigned camera
technology of the 23-megapixel camera enables perfect professional-quality photos. In addition, the 13-megapixel front camera with the light-sensitive Sony Exmor R sensor makes perfect selfies in no time at all. Sony's new Quick Launch technology captures every moment in less than a second, no matter how short. The captured images and videos are displayed in detail on the 700 Candela bright 5 "Full-HD TRILUMINOS display with rounded sides.

The camera's new predictive autofocus detects whether an object is moving. From the speed and direction of the movement, the next position is calculated in advance and focused on it. Even in continuous shooting, the focus is measured again in between, extrapolated for the next shot and adjusted appropriately. This makes it possible, for example, to keep vehicles approaching vehicles consistently sharp, even in series shots. Just like the Xperia Z5 series, the Xperia X also has an integrated fingerprint sensor on the side. In this way, the smartphone can be unlocked easily and precisely, which combines a high level of security with convenient operation in everyday use. Fingerprints can also be used to pay for online shopping.

The top-of-the-range model weighs only 156g and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 64bit hexa-core processor with 3GB of RAM. In addition to 32GB of internal memory, it offers a slot for micro SD cards up to 200GB. The Xperia X lasts up to 2 days under normal use thanks to its 2620 mAh rechargeable batteries with quick charge function.

Sony's new top-of-the-range smartphone also offers everything that makes music lovers' hearts beat faster. The Xperia X recognizes the headset plugged in and automatically adjusts the audio settings to guarantee the user the best possible sound in Hi-Res quality. Hearing pleasure is enhanced by digital noise reduction (DNC) using DNC-enabled headsets, even in noisy environments. In addition, the improved fidelity results in a sound quality almost like in the studio.

Beim Android-Smartphone Xperia X baut Sony eine hoch wertige Hauptkamera und eine 13-Megapixel-Frontknipse ein. An anderen Stellen wird das Gerät seinem High-End-Anspruch aber nicht gerecht.
