The best of Sony in a smartphone.
Meet Sony's most exquisitely detailed smartphone yet. Get lost in the size and sheer beauty of the razor sharp 5-inch Full 1920x1080 HD display. Hold the surprisingly compact frame that's anything but awkward to operate. Capture sophisticated stills and epic videos with the 13MP camera's highly advanced sensor featuring HDR video that won't let lighting conditions — either too dim or too bright — ruin the moment. Accomplish more, faster, with a Snapdragon™ S4 Pro quad-core processor that gets you what you want without the wait. Recharge less often thanks to the customizable Battery STAMINA Mode that recognizes when your display is off, turning off functions you don't need while keeping the notifications you want.
Mega 5 inch screen, mini handheld feel.
The design of Xperia ZL manages the impossible: a 5" display on a smartphone that fits comfortably in your hand. By optimizing component architecture, Sony engineers were able to increase the overall screen size while keeping the phone itself as small as possible. The result? A high screen to phone size ratio that manages to feel both breathtakingly bold and impressively compact at the same time.

An exquisite display of beauty.
It's the awe-inspiring screen they've got to see to believe. Created with the same expertise Sony BRAVIAŽ TV engineers use, a stunning Full 1920x1080 HD Reality Display optimizes images making them sharper, brighter and more lifelike. Next generation Mobile BRAVIA Engine™ 2 smoothes out jagged edges on everything you see, while the high pixel density and superior brightness provide super sharp images with great readability even in sunlight. An OptiContrast™ panel brings you clearer images when on and a seamless black look when off.
What makes the Xperia ZL display different?
Superior 13MP shooter.
Precision crafted by the same experts with the same components as Sony's world-renowned cameras,
Xperia ZL is a sophisticated pocket shooter in its own right. The highly advanced 13MP camera captures stunning stills and gorgeous video even when taken against a bright sunny sky or on a night on the town thanks to Exmor RS™ for mobile technology. It's the world's first image sensor with HDR video capability perfect for capturing life at its fullest, regardless of the lighting you're up against. Catch up via video chat on the above average front facing camera and share smiles with a loved one from miles away.

Long live your battery.
Improve your standby time by 4 times or more with Battery STAMINA Mode, a more intelligent battery management system. As soon as the screen goes off, battery-draining apps running in the background are quickly shut down instead of pointlessly draining your battery when they're not even in use. Wake Xperia ZL up, and they'll start up again automatically. Worried about missing an important Facebook® or Twitter™ update? Don't. Customize which programs you'd like notifications pushed from and stay on top of whatever you'd like.
