Sony has officially Announced powerful Xperia Z With Long Lasting Battery & Water Resistance Feature [CES 2013]

Equipped with the Android 4.1 OS AKA Jelly Bean, the new handset from Japanese manufacturer has enough power to cope with the Samsung Galaxy S3 and iPhone 5 from Apple.

The highlight of the new gadget is photo sensor developed by the company, which allows you to record videos of high quality HDR. Moreover, as happens in some handsets from HTC, it is possible to capture still images without interrupting any recording.

Launching in March

On the software side, Sony continues to invest in its own interface (Bravia Engine 2), which includes features such as ClearAudio+ and Stamina Battery, responsible for turning off processes that are not necessary in order to save energy. Combined with the 2330 mAh battery used by the manufacturer, it will ensure the ability to use the smartphone for long periods of time without you having to worry about recharging it.

What is a little disappointing launch date of the Xperia Z, something that should only happen in March this year - until then, a new version of Android should already be close to reaching consumers. Apparently, the product should be available globally, although some markets should receive the ZL version that eliminates things like the rear glass finishing and water resistance.
