According to the official press release, this new handset offers "the world’s first super slow motion video in a smartphone," but is also the first one to feature a 4K HDR display.

These are the highlights of the Sony Xperia XZ Premium:

  • Display: 5.5-inch Triluminous 4K HDR with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, X-Reality engine

  • Connectivity: 4G LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB Type-C, fingerprint reader
  • Operating system: Android 7.1 Nougat
  • Battery: 3,230 mAh with Quick Charge 3.0 and Smart STAMINA mode

Sadly, the Xperia XZ Premium is not going on sale right away. This handset is expected to hit the US market this spring for a price that should be disclosed then, so stay tuned.
