Sony Xperia Z Ultra Reviews: Advantages and Main Disadvantages



Sony Xperia Z Ultra has four Krait 400 cores clocked way up to 2.2 GHz and 2 gigs of RAM on the Snapdragon 800 chipset will never leave you short on torque. Sony has done well to address the screen deficiencies of past models and the X-Reality-powered (former Mobile Bravia) Triluminos display offers nicely improved viewing angles compared to the original Xperia Z.

It's an ultra-responsive screen too, which can register pen or pencil input. And we mean just any pen or pencil you may have lying around, not a dedicated stylus along the lines of the Galaxy Notes.

The Sony phablet is remarkably slim, at 6.5mm, not the slimmest ever but certainly the slimmest device with a screen over 6-inches. And Sony managed to up the level of protection and obtain IP58 certification for the Xperia Z Ultra, which practically means you can go swimming with it.

The Sony Xperia Z Ultra is one beast of a smartphone (although at this size it already steps on tablet territory). The Snapdragon 800 chipset brings a meaningful performance improvement over an already very snappy Snapdragon 600, while the screen packs all the latest technology Sony has its hands on. The Triluminos display of 1080p resolution promises to solve the long-standing viewing angle issues in Sony's lineup, while the X-Reality enhancements means punchy colors and impressive contrast.
