2013-07-10
well that's up everyone this is Todd Hazleton with TechnoBuffalo and today we are checking out a white box now we're checking out t-mobile's Xperia Z it's from Sony and I'm gonna unbox it for you right now see on this we've got a little plastic paper sticker thing that points to the USB charging port on the Left memory card the charging dock connector back home and task buttons volume and zoom that's on the right hand it's a zoom if you're using the camera the power button which Sony told me is becoming more and more of this sort of steeple on their product so everybody knows hey that's a Sony and they actually had me close my eyes and pick up the phone and say where's the power button Micro SIM card slot this is t-mobile so you get 4G LTE support on the front you've got this 5-inch display it's Bravia Engine 2 technology throwing that anywhere let's see we'll go to the back here again we've got black and actually sort of like a carbon-fiber inlay here along the edges sony promises that's to make it extra strong so that we've gone over the sort of the side features of the phone it is IP 55 and 57 resistant that means resistant against water and dust i'll get to that in a second let's just go through the box real quick because this isn't unboxing you get the charger looks like they sort of put it together for us as you can tell it's just a straight up white box so I think they kind of set us up this empty bag our sim tray or card and some sony minnows have you got guidelines and important information and your Start Guide for the Xperia Z while we turn it on let's go through some of the features it's also have a 1.5 gigahertz quad-core processors the 5 inch screen up here 1080p Bravia Engine 2 as I said on the back you've got a 13 megapixel camera a single LED flash t-mobile logo and again this runs on t-mobile's LTE network which is available in seven markets right now and what happens if you don't have service actually fall down to its HSPA+ two megabits per second network which is actually pretty good other features on this ball we're booting up include HD voice and again the water resistance means you can drop it into three feet of water for up to 30 minutes so not too bad so we're looking at this together but I got a preview with them recently in a meeting with Sony so I have an idea of what's on this phone we've got the Walkman I'll movie Sony select now we saw all of these features already when we reviewed this unit so let's go through and see what else t-mobile is added at the mobile hotspot t-mobile TV t-mobile my account visual voicemail and it looks like not much else which is good because you sort of don't want all that bloatware as I like to call it t-mobile let the FM radio intact as well let's go through some of the camera features it has this nice there we go a little delay on the camera there sure we'll have I'll turn on GPS whatever auto it's called superior auto mode now this will automatically if you're in the dark say let's see you see that little icon that's popping up it says low light and now let's see if it'll automatically go into a macro mode let's see there's an icon there it says macro so it automatically knows what to do when you have it in that mode so that you shoot the best effects and because it's water-resistant you can actually take this underwater too and shoot although usually this displays don't work underwater so you're gonna want to make sure you take that into account before you take it below the surface to megapixel front-facing camera here looks like we've got lookout Mobile Security installed on it we see that popping up here 20 updates out of the box and I don't know what version of Android this is running so let's check that 4.1.2 okay so we're not running on four to two jelly beans so it is slightly behind everything feels super snappy it's got the nice processor on there help there's a little bit of bloatware widgets if you want to deal with that okay so now I've got the videos open let's take a look at this display here see how nice it looks and check out the viewing angle and get the audio going to the viewing angles look pretty good there oh oh I'm not sure what just happened with that your angles look okay it screens really pretty looking those are all popping out okay so that's a quick look here at the t-mobile Sony Xperia Z it launches in July for $99 down and it'll require $20 monthly payments for 24 months if you get approved for that credit on t-mobile's new simple choice plans anyway quick look here this is Tod Hazleton with TechnoBuffalo you
