Snapdragon 845 sits under the hood here, paired with 6GB RAM and 64GB storage, so day-to-day performance is well within flagship territory for 2018. The standout is the 5.8-inch display running actual 4K resolution, 3840 x 2160 pixels packed into that screen for a density around 765 ppi. It's IPS LCD rather than OLED, which affects contrast but keeps colours accurate.

On the back, Sony's put a dual camera setup: a 19MP main wide sensor next to a 12MP monochrome one, both using laser autofocus for quicker locks in low light. Video shooters get 1080p slow-mo at 960fps, a party trick few rivals had at the time. Battery capacity is 3540 mAh, and the body carries IP65/IP68 water and dust resistance, so it survives more than a splash.

Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium price in Malaysia starts from RM3499. USB-C, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD round out the connectivity, and it ships in Chrome Black or Chrome Silver.
