The Sony Xperia Z1 represents a further improvement of the previous Xperia Z, from which it inherited some features. It comes with a 5-inch full HD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, but this time the Japanese manufacturer incorporated a Triluminos panel, the same technology found in Bravia TV, offering a wider palette of colors. Another display feature is X-Reality which analyzes each image and optimizes the quality of HD videos. In terms of the design, Xperia Z1 is very similar to the Xperia Z model. With Sony Omni Balance design and a sturdy aluminum frame this device is very attractive and slim, measuring 144 x 74 x 8.5 mm and weighing only 170 g.
