Sony introduced a few days ago the Sony Xperia XZ1, its new high-end smartphone that competed in a market highly competed by major brands manufacturers of advanced models. This new Xperia XZ1 will compete with devices recognized worldwide like Galaxy S8, LG G6 or the future iPhone 8. This phone is the successor of Sony Xperia XZ, which was released to the market in October last year. The Sony Xperia XZ1, arrived in stores in September with a price of 699 euros.

The Sony Xperia XZ1 is constructed of aluminum, has water and dust resistance.

This phone has a Qualcomm processor, the Snapdragon 835, its screen has a resolution of 4k of 5.2 inches with Full HD resolution. Its operating system is Android 8.0, and its internal storage is made up of 64GB and microSD card up to 256GB. With respect to its design, Sony has decided to maintain its traditional design called Omnibalance, which has been a feature of Sony phones.

A design that according to the opinion of some experts, is obsolete, which is characterized by slightly rounding the edges, and keeps curves increasingly less attractive. It has a fingerprint sensor and a 2700 mAh battery. In addition, its connectivity is made up of Bluetooth 5.0 BLE - Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac - USB Type-C 2.0 - NFC - Nano SIM - LTES The new Sony Xperia XZ1 has a powerful rear camera, consisting of a 19-megapixel lens and offers impressive captures. In addition the camera of Sony Xperia XZ1 brings a very interesting novelty, because this camera can make videos in slow motion at 960 fps. But what other novelties does this little giant bring us?

Well, one of the innovations presented by this smartphone, is its 3D Scanner, This function allows to create a object in three dimensions through a scanning process using the camera of the mobile, all through an intuitive interface that also comes integrated in the camera application of the new Xperia XZ1. The new 3D scanner function will allow you to create digital figures after scanning them.

As for design, Sony has decided to keep the Omnibalance design for a lifetime. A design that is already obsolete and, despite slightly rounding the edges, keeps curves increasingly less attractive.

To this must be added a body made of polycarbonate that further detracts from the new Sony phone. The only thing that would be salvageable would be the dedicated button for the camera, the house's characteristic mark, as well as the terminal's on / off button, which also functions as a fingerprint sensor.

We can scan a person's head, a plate of food, a cup or even the head of our pet; then the mobile creates a three-dimensional object of that scan and stores it in .obj format.

Once we have taken the capture with the 3D Scanner we can export the scanned object to share it in its original format through the mail, social networks or any messaging application, even can export it to .PNG, JPEG formats. GIF, and in this way, anyone can open it without needing to download additional programs.

We can print the object in three dimensions, because the time to scan a face is 30 seconds, while if we want to scan an entire head we must wait more than one minute. In any case, the application indicates at all times the steps we must follow to perform the scan, so the procedure can not be easier.
