XperiaTM Z1 Compact quick reference guide
The best of Sony in a
compact waterproof*
smartphone
Perfect size, outstanding
performance
XperiaTM Z1 Compact: Introduction
Xperia Z1 Compact offers the best of Sony
in a compact, waterproof smartphone.
Designed to t into users’ pockets, as well
as their lives, it repackages the market
leading technology rst seen in Xperia
Z1 into a slim, comfortable 4.3” form to
provide an experience that’s much more
about the user than it is the phone.
This review guide is designed to help you
(media and bloggers) quickly understand
and make the most of some of the key
features. We also provide some quick, easy
to use assets that you are free to use as
you like.
Why we can call it “the world’s best camera in
a compact smartphone”
Like its predecessor Xperia Z1, Xperia Z1
Compact offers an incredible camera
experience, and just like Xperia Z1 the
engineers have focussed on three key
features of the Z1 Compact camera
allowing users to: catch fast moving objects
without blur, take great photographs in low
light and take photographs using a zoom,
without degrading the image.
A 27mm f2.0 Sony G-lens is used in Z1
Compact’s camera. Because it gives
photographers a wider angle than other
smartphones, the lens sucks in more light,
which means you can take better pictures
in poor light conditions. For an example of
an image taken in near-darkness, have a
look at this image.
A bigger sensor = clearer photos. Z1
Compact’s Exmor RS™ for mobile sensor
(1/2.3”) is similar to that used in Sony’s
Cyber-shot digital cameras. Sony’s sensor
tech ensures more pixels can t on the sensor and that each pixel on the sensor can be
larger than usual. The result? The camera can capture more light, image noise is heavily
reduced and quicker exposure times gives sharper images.
Using exclusive imaging tech from Sony’s
digital imaging team, the BIONZ for mobile
chip in Z1 Compact’s camera produces
sharp white balance calculations, reduces
image noise and increases the image
quality. See it in action for yourself here.
Superior Auto is Xperia Z1 Compact’s
default mode and is designed to help
everyday photographers get it right quickly
by using intelligent scene recognition
technology to make sure you always shoot
with the optimal camera settings. The Z1
Compact camera also comes with a full
set of manual settings for more advanced
photographers, allowing you to control
shutter speed and aperture settings as well
as over- and under-exposure control.
Better photos every time with Timeshift burst
Never miss a moment with Timeshift
burst; the burst mode application begins
to record images the moment the camera
has focused - pre-shutter button click. You
can then scroll back and forwards in time
to pick the best quality picture from the
range. Timeshift burst allows users to take
61 shots with 2 seconds (either side of the
shutter press).
To demo, hit the button in the bottom left of
the camera screen and select it from the list
of smart camera apps.

There are a number of images above that were taken with Z1 Compact’s camera setup,
feel free to use them when talking about the camera capabilities.
Apps that take your camera further
With a full range of innovative apps, Xperia
Z1 Compact offers a camera experience
that goes beyond traditional image making.
Sony’s smart social camera app tray was
announced alongside Xperia Z1 and now
boasts a wealth of great apps designed to
deliver new functions.
To check out the range of available apps
hit the button in the bottom left of the
camera user interface then hit the plus
sign at the top of the next screen. You’ll be
taken to selection of the best smart social
camera apps and from there you can
install them in the normal way through the
Google Play store.
A few examples:
The Info-eye™ application means that
you can point your camera at an object
and instantly receive relevant information
about it. Demo by snapping a well known
monument and grabbing a screenshot
of what happens next (volume down and
power key together, or just grab the pre-
made one here).
Social live is the app that allows you to
stream videos to your Facebook prole,
receive friends’ reactions and respond -
live. Sony was the rst company in the
world to roll out this technology. If you want
to see an example of the user interface, you
can grab the screenshot here.
Other smart social camera apps downloadable
from the Google Play store include:
Motionshot allows users to take multiple photos of a moving object and
condense them all down into one animated sequence. The animated shot
can then be uploaded and shared via social networks at the press of a
button. It’s only available in certain markets at the moment but will be
rolling out over the next few months.
The Evernote app turns your camera into a memory aide by integrating
directly with Evernote’s notebooks. Want to remember the recipe you
just read on the train or the perfect gift idea you just saw in the shop?
Just switch the camera into Evernote mode and snap away. Photos are
automatically uploaded to your free Evernote account and you can add
notes to help you nd them later.
Sphere 360 allows you to take 360 degree interactive panoramas. Once
created you can then explore the panorama by rotating the phone to see
new sections.
For more information on Sony’s smart social camera applications, just go to blogs.
sonymobile.com/tags/smartsocialcamera where the PR team will be posting updates as
new apps get released.
A waterproof* beauty. Designed to perfection.
Xperia Z1 Compact has been designed to t neatly in your hand for the perfect one-
handed experience. Sporting a solid one-piece aluminium frame and a front made of
tempered glass for optimal look and durability, the 4.3” Z1 Compact follows Sony’s
OmniBalance design language.
Like its predecessors, Xperia Z1 Compact continues Xperia waterproof and dust-resistant
features. The IP55/IP58 rating means it’s protected against the ingress of dust and can
be kept under 1.5 metres of freshwater for
up to 30 minutes, provided all ports and
covers are rmly shut. We’ve also listened
to feedback from earlier releases and
included both wet nger tracking, an open
headphones jack and a dedicated camera
button (long pressing on this opens the
camera app instantly). These features are
all built on the designs of the Z1 and Z
Ultra, but with Xperia Z1 Compact we’ve
gone one step further and built in a new
handling mode - glove mode. Users can
now use Xperia Z1 Compact through any
gloves (less than 2mm thick). If you want to demo the waterproofness and underwater
use of the camera, simply drop the phone into fresh water and start taking pictures. Pick
the phone up from the water and, without wiping off the water, start using the phone as
normal. We’ve also included some design-focussed images here.
A viewing experience that’s true to life
With a 4.3” TRILUMINOS Display with 720 x 1280 HD resolution, Xperia Z1 Compact
brings together the latest Sony TV technologies in a mobile package. The TRILUMINOS
display creates a wider palette of rich,
natural colours (even the hard-to-reproduce
reds, blues and greens), which are further
enhanced through intelligent backlight
technology that reproduces even more
tones and textures.
Meanwhile, the X-Reality for mobile
picture engine and Sony’s intelligent super
resolution technology analyses images,
reproduces lacking pixels, optimises quality
and enhances both colour and contrast to
produce a cleaner, clearer image. Noise
reduction features work on images prior
to up-scaling (automatic conversion of
a low-resolution image or video to high-
resolution), while our display technology
analyses each image to optimise pixels,
texture, outline, colour, contrast and noise.
What does this all mean? It means that
images are reproduced to actually look how
you remember them and videos look so
good you’ll forget you’re watching them on
a mobile.
Suggested demos:
If you want to demo the X-Reality engine,
you can use the settings for ON and OFF,
and then screen capture (long press on the
power button and volume down key simultaneously) so that you can easily compare the
results. There is also a splitscreen shot here that demonstrates the difference made by
X-Reality for mobile

A new generation of media apps on XperiaTM
Z1 Compact
We want you to be able to enjoy all aspects
of Sony technology to its fullest potential
on all of our products. With Xperia Z1
Compact, you are able to enjoy songs,
blockbusters and all the hottest games,
online and ofine. Z1 Compact will come
with up to €100 of free content available
through the Sony Entertainment Network
(or equivalent in markets where this is not
yet available).
Z1 Compact is brought to you pre-loaded
with the new Walkman, Movies and Album
apps. The latest versions of Walkman
and Movies come with Sony’s Music and
Movies Unlimited services for access
to entertainment wherever you go; with
PlayMemories you are able to upload
images, movies and songs to our cloud
services for easy sharing between devices.
There’s no storage limit (although some
larger images may be subject to downsizing
so that the longest side is no more than
1920 px long).
TrackIDTM TV
Alongside (and pre-loaded on) Xperia Z1
Compact, Sony will also be debuting its
second screen TV app - TrackID TV. The
app syncs with the audio from TV shows
to provide users with extra information
including related tweets, actor biographies,
show trailers and more. TrackID TV
will initially be available in the UK, US,
Germany, France and Japan.
Suggested demos:
There is a video here that outlines the new app functionality. For screenshots
demonstrating the user scenario for Music Unlimited, Movies Unlimited and
PlayMemories, see links on the last page of this quick reference guide.
Speed that goes on forever
The Qualcomm Snapdragon™ 800 quad-core 2.2 Ghz processor with 2GB RAM in
Xperia Z1 Compact means ultra-fast performance and breath taking graphics. Taking the
concept of speed further, Xperia Z1 Compact supports super-fast LTE networks, giving
you access to entertainment anytime, anywhere.
The processor does not drain the battery as it’s asynchronous, which means each core is
powered independently; Z1 Compact receives the right amount of power when needed,
without wasting power when not.
The world’s best battery performance in a
premium compact smatphone**
Three things are in focus in Sony’s approach to battery life in Xperia Z1 Compact:
1. The asynchronous technology in the
SD800 produces less heat and uses less
power.
2. The 2300 mAh battery is designed to
handle heavy duty phone and data usage,
and provide outstanding standby time.
3. Battery STAMINA Mode signicantly
improves the standby time of the
smartphone by four times or more. When
the display is switched off, all the functions
that don’t need to be running are
automatically switched off, whilst
keeping the important functions (such as
notications) switched on. As soon as the
power button is pressed to wake up the
screen, everything is up and running again.
Suggested demos:
Both ZenBound (family friendly) and ShadowGun (not so much) are well known for being
processor and battery intensive games. It’s also worth comparing the estimated battery
life stat on the Power Management screen in the settings with STAMINA mode turned off
and on. There is a splitscreen ON / OFF screenshot here.
Did you know?
The battery in Xperia Z1 Compact delivers:
• Music listening time up to 94 hours
• Video playback time up to 12 hours
• 12 hours more on average than the closest
leading competitor
• The fastest battery charging
compared to the closest leading competitor
