Sony Mobile today said that its high-end flagship phone, the XZ2 Premium, will go on sale in July for $999. The phone will be available for preorder from Amazon and Best Buy starting July 9, with retail availability expected July 30. The XZ2 Premium has a 5.8-inch 4K HDR display (16:9 aspect ratio) that Sony says is 30% brighter than its previous mobile 4K screen. The XZ2 Premium includes a new Motion Eye Dual camera that is capable of capturing ISO 51,200 for photos and ISO 12,800 during video — which means the XZ2 Premium delivers more detail in nighttime pictures. The camera supports selectable bokeh, 4K HDR video capture, and 960fps super slow motion in 1080p HD. The user-facing camera has a 13-megapixel sensor with display-based flash. The XZ2 Premium includes S-Force Front Surround speakers and a Dynamic Vibration System so owners can "feel the action" in their hands. The phone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor with 6 GB of RAM. The phone relies on a 3,540mAh battery with Qi wireless charging. Other features include NFC, USB-C, Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD, 64 GB of storage, and support for memory cards up to 400 GB. The XZ2 Premium has a glass-and-metal design with Gorilla Glass 5 on front and back. It boasts IP68 for protection against splashes and spills. The phone will be bundled with Sony's Xperia Ear Duo headphones.
