The world's best camera in a water resistant smartphone*
Sharper. Clearer. Brighter. That's what Sony's industry leading compact digital cameras give you. And
now with the Xperia™ Z1 Compact, we have created a groundbreaking smartphone built with the very
same components, giving you the most stellar picture and video quality possible. By combining the large
1/2.3 inches 20.7MP Exmor RS™ for mobile image sensor, Sony's award-winning G Lens, and intelligent
BIONZ™ for mobile image processing engine, the results are nothing less than amazing. The light-
sensitive 27mm wide angle lens comes with an aperture of F2.0. Wide apertures mean that bokeh – the
way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light – will be naturally incorporated in images produced. The
large high sensitivity sensor is made exclusively for the Xperia™ Z1 Compact and is equivalent to the
sensor size used in Sony's Cyber-shot™ digital still cameras, which together with the intelligent noise
reduction capabilities of the image processing engine and the sensitive ISO 6400 enables incredibly clear
low-light pictures without sacrificing detail. The high pixel resolution, aspherical lens and BIONZ™ for
mobile super resolution technology enables zoom without quality loss - just like an optical zoom, while the
high shutter speed reduces any risk of blurry footage. Images are delivered with super sharpness, clarity
and brightness.
*Xperia™ Z1 Compact features a camera combining the world's largest image sensor (1/2.3 inches) with
the highest resolution (20.7 MP) in a water resistant smartphone. It also includes the brightest lens (F2.0)
available in a slim water resistant (IPX5/IPX8) smartphone. Specifications verified by Strategy Analytics'

The best colour and sharpness ever
Built with the latest Sony BRAVIA® technologies optimised for mobile, the Xperia™ Z1 Compact
incorporates a large high-resolution 4.3 inch TRILUMINOS™ Display for mobile, for a wider palette of rich,
natural colours – just like having a broader range of colour pencils to draw from. With Sony's exclusive X-
Reality™ for mobile picture engine, everything you watch – from HD movies to web videos and photos – is
analysed and selectively processed to deliver clean, clear, and lifelike pictures. In addition, the Intelligent
Super Resolution technology finds and reproduces lacking pixels, so you'll always be able to enjoy the
sharpest videos, preventing your entertainment from being spoiled by low resolution videos. The display
comes with a 1280 x 720 progressive scan, for incredibly crisp pictures free of jagged edges. Paired with
a pixel density of 342 pixels per inch, you get pictures that are razor sharp and incredibly bright.
Smart, sleek and water resistant*
Building upon the rich history of Sony's craftsmanship, the Xperia™ Z1 Compact has been carefully
crafted using only clean lines and premium materials. With OmniBalance™ design, this smartphone offers
balance and symmetry in all directions, creating a smartphone that feels wonderful to hold in every angle.
