About Sony Xperia XZ3
The Sony Xperia XZ3 feels compact yet substantial in the hand, measuring just 73 mm wide, 158 mm tall and a slim 6 mm thick while tipping the scales at 193 grams. Its single‑SIM tray keeps the profile clean, and the device’s rounded edges blend seamlessly into a polished frame that hints at Sony’s attention to detail. Dominating the front is a 5.98‑inch AM‑OLED panel that stretches from edge to edge, delivering a sharp 1440 × 2880 resolution. The technology behind the screen promises deep blacks, vivid colours and excellent contrast, making everything from photos to videos look striking without sacrificing readability in bright light.
Inside, the phone runs Google Android 9.0 Pie out of the box, providing a modern, fluid interface with the latest security and feature updates. Four gigabytes of RAM sit alongside the processor, aiming to keep multitasking smooth and app launches responsive. Powering the day is a 3330 mAh battery, a capacity chosen to balance the phone’s slender build with enough stamina for typical usage patterns. Together, these elements create a device that aims to offer a premium visual experience in a comfortably sized package, ready for everyday tasks and media consumption alike.
This variant is sold as a single‑SIM global TD‑LTE handset, unlike the dual‑SIM EMEA and APAC editions that offer two lines for users who need separate personal and work numbers.
Whereas the Japanese models are locked to specific carriers — TD‑LTE JP 801SO, WiMAX 2+ SOV39 and TD‑LTE JP SO‑01L — this phone carries no carrier branding and is intended for worldwide TD‑LTE networks.
