Sony announces Xperia ZR waterproof smartphone

Sony announces Xperia
ZR waterproof
smartphone

Just like the Xperia Z, the Xperia
ZR is waterproof and dust-
resistant. This time, Sony is not
just advertising the fact that the
Xperia ZR can survive underwater
but that you can actually use it
there, particularly for taking 13
megapixel pictures and full HD
videos with the camera and
dedicated shutter button.

The Xperia ZR has a 4.55-inch,
1280 x 720 resolution LCD. Sony is
using its BRAVIA Engine 2, along
with something called
OptiContrast panel. This basically
gets rid of the extra touchscreen
layer by integrating the touch
sensor on the panel itself, which
improves image quality and makes
the display assembly thinner.

Other features include a 1.5GHz
quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragonc
APQ8064, 2GB RAM, 8GB internal
memory with microSD card slot and
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
The Sony Xperia ZR is expected to
go on sale around the world in Q2,
2013.
