[MWC 2017] Smartphones are Now in HDR Era, Sony Unveils World’s First 4K HDR Smartphone

At MWC 2017, Sony introduced the Xperia Z5/XZ Premium, the world’s first smartphone applying 4K HDR(High Dynamic Range).

In particular, with the phrase “From Bravia to Xperia” in the center of the booth, Sony attracted the viewers’ eyes.

Bravia is a premium OLED TV of Sony, which applies the large size OLED panel of LG Display, introduced at CES 2017, and the phrase “From Bravia to Xperia” is considered to build Sony’s image in the premium TV market also in the smartphone market.

A person concerned with Sony said, “Since the 4K HDR has become a standard in the TV market and 4K HDR content productions are increasing rapidly, the needs for 4K HDR in the smartphone market will also increase.” and added “As the Xperia XZ Premium has rich color expressions and stereoscopic effects based on 4K HDR, TV contents which apply HDR will be able to be enjoyed vividly also on smartphones.”

Sony is at the forefront in the premium TV market with Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics and is expected to strengthen its position in the premium TV market due to the launch of OLED TV in 2017, but Sony is lagging behind in competitiveness in the smartphone market, compared to Samsung and Apple.

It is attracting the industry’s attention whether the Xperia Z5/XZ Premium which applies Sony’s 4K HDR will be able to secure a competitive edge in the premium smartphone market as well as in the premium TV market.

Meanwhile, at this MWC 2017, the introduction of both Xperia Touch in which a 23-inch HD touch screen is realized in an interactive projector and Xperia ™ Ear, a wireless stereo headphone, in which Sony’s Open Ear audio technology is applied, gained great popularity from the viewers.
