THE Z2 IS OUT!!!!!!!!!

THE  Z2

             Sony's flagships have struggled to find success, but that hasn't stopped the company from quickly iterating its smartphone line in order to keep up with its rivals. With the Xperia Z  now over a year old and the Xperia Z1 staring its six month birthday in the face, MWC comes at the perfect time for Sony to unveil its latest flagship: the Xperia Z2. It certainly borrows from its predecessor in terms of looks and features but the company's breathed some extra life into the phone to set it apart from its older siblings. What's it added, you ask?

                            The end result is a handset that has been upgraded in nearly all departments. While the Xperia Z 2 slightly taller and thinner than the Z1, you'd be hard pressed to identify it in a lineup alongside its younger sibling.
                            One area that Sony has improved is the display. In an effort to further optimize its screens, Sony's Mobile teams worked with its TV engineers to outfit the Z2's Triluminos IPS screen with BRAVIA technology. Live Color LED is one example of that, generating brighter and more consistent color using a mix of red and green phosphor as well as blue LEDs.

                             Sony's strong optics make for impressive photos, but its desire to futureproof its handsets has led to   developments in the video department too. The Z2 includes 4K video recording at 30 frames per second with SteadyShot image stabilisation, but videos will only play back in full HD on its 1080p screen. However, you'll still be able to zoom in and inspect the stunning detail of your recordings on the device.
                             If specs aren't enough, Sony's also developed made some camera tweaks to get even more mileage out of it. There's Timeshift video, which'll let you shoot and quickly edit slow motion video at 120 frames per second, better background defocus and augmented reality options are now available for video. Unfortunately, Sony's limited Timeshift videos to 720p at 120 frames per second, putting a dampener on those plans to record a slo-mo of yourself on a slip-and-slide in high(er)-definition.
                                 A strong entertainment focus helps set Sony apart from many of its rivals, and it's looking to push that angle a little more with the Xperia Z2. If the device ticks all of the right boxes and you find yourself heading out on launch day to grab Sony's latest flagship, it'll bundle a pair of MDR NC31EM headphones in the box as a little thank you. They'll do a pretty great job at isolating ambient noise on their own but with a little help from the Z2's built-in digital noise cancelling algorithms, you'll be oblivious to most of the great outdoors.




                            Sony tells us that for the Xperia Z2 "the difference is in the experience," but given the spec bumps across the board, it's certainly trying to appeal to consumers who want industry-leading hardware and software. The phone is light but sturdy, fast and responsive, and continues to utilize all of the best features from other Z-series smartphones. There's plenty to like about Sony's new flagship, we just hope that stays true when it our hands on it for a full review. It's set to launch globally from March, so we won't have long to wait.
                                    Still the dates are not sure of the launch .Full specs of the Z2 are given below.
Despite all the Z2 is an overall good phone which is well in all around aspects. Build quality is far superior .But at the end it is the same design and just tweaks of the previous generation.It's better if the prices come out soon so all could is it worth every penny of ours.I think still the UI needed an uplift.The UI has been a major disadvantage to sony in terms of the Xperia series.Still hoping the company will notice this.So it's up to you.

DO YOU THINK THE Z2 IS WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY??????
