IFA 2015 - Sony Xperia Z5 Compact announced

Sony has officially unveiled the three new successors to the flagship Xperia Z lineup . The trio - the Xperia Z5  - a spiritual successor to the Z3+ , Xperia Z5 Compact - a compact edition packing good hardware similar to flagship models and the Xperia Z5 Premium - a phone that is set to pack even more punch thanks to its high res screen (and high price tag)


Sony started its quest of refining the compact phone category with the launch of the Z1 compact in 2013 . The phone series - started as a spin-off line to compete against the "mini" craze started out by Samsung and HTC proved to be a good move for the OEM as compact models are well sought after eventhough they cost just as much as the bigger flagship models . The new model - the Xperia Z5 compact shares much of its DNA from previous edition including the familiar omni balance design and IP ratings . Although this compact phone is small by today's display sizes , dont let its 4.65" fool you as this model feature the same specs as its bigger brother(s) the Xperia Z5 and Z5 premium . Inside you get a 1.5Ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 Soc (a bit overkill for such a small device ) 2GB of RAM . 32GB of storage  , adreno 430 graphics and of course Sony's refined optics.


Sony has also been graceful in making its camera experience a lot better as the new phone features a 23MP rear camera - this new camera module is also another first for the Xperia series as all previous versions from the Z1 to the Z3+ were all stuck at 20.7 MP .The new model has a F2.0 Aperture a 24mm focal equivalence and 120fps on 720p and 4K video recording .The module can shoot 23MP in 4:3 and 20MP in 16:9 aspect ratio . a front facing 5 mp shooter is present on the Xperia Z5 compact
