Sony Xperia Z5 Vs iPhone 6s: Who Has The Upper Hand In This Battle Of Flagships?
This is one comparison a lot of people have been requesting over the past several weeks.
So, here it is - an objective comparative analysis of Sony Xperia Z5 vs iPhone 6s specs that will hopefully help consumers make a smart choice in their ongoing smartphone hunt.
In terms of looks, the Xperia Z5 definitely brings an admirable design with its metal frame and precision engraving, something that easily helps it stand out amongst all its predecessors.
Compared to that, the iPhone 6s doesn't offer any radical shift in design, thus staying true to the trend Apple usually follows with its "S" models.
The iPhone 6s design is more or less the same as that of the iPhone6, albeit with a 7000 Series aluminum shell that makes it sturdier along with added thickness.
The Xperia Z5's 5.2-in display delivers a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080p at 424ppi. Meanwhile, the iPhone 6s has a display of 4.7-in with 2,000 x 1,125p resolution and 488ppi.
Both displays have their own USPs, e.g. the Z5's wide viewing angle makes it go easy on users' eyes, whereas the 3D Touch feature in the iPhone 6S makes the touchscreen a lot more user-friendly.
Worth noting here, the full HD display of the Z5 ends up consuming much less battery life as compared to the 2k display of the iPhone 6s.
When it comes to processing power, there's no clear winner in the Sony Xperia Z5 vs iPhone 6s standoff. While the iPhone 6s has Apple's own processor (aided by 2 GB of RAM), the Z5 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 clocked at 2 GHz and 1.5 GHz and 3 GB of RAM.
All Xperia Z5 devices carry 32 GB built-in storage and a microSD slot for expandable storage. The iPhone 6s, on the other hand, is available in three variants: 16 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB, none with micro SD slot.
On a one-to-one comparison, the Xperia Z5's 23 MP rear camera with Exmor RS sensor and optical image stabilization appears superior to the iPhone 6s' 12 MP camera.
The quality of the front cameras in both Xperia Z5 (5.1 MP) and iPhone 6s (5 MP) seem more or less the same.
