As with every phone Sony makes, a lot of the hype is surrounding the camera. While others love them, I've always found the Xperia line to have nothing more than competent photography skills. The tech is undoubtedly there – Sony builds the sensors for most of the best mobile cameras – but it's the execution that it lacks. 

For the Xperia XZ you've got a 23-megapixeel IMX 300 sensor, so it's offering a much higher pixel count than most of the competition.
It's a fancy tri-image sensor that should, in theory, improve picture quality. One sensor measures the distance, another the colour. It also combines hybrid and laser-assisted autofocus, and it’s the first phone to come with 5-axis stabilisation for reducing blur.
