Xperia M2: Introduction

Xperia M2 is the latest mid-range offering from Sony

Mobile, featuring Sony’s top of the range software and

hardware technologies. With Xperia M2, Sony listened to

what the consumers wanted; a quality smartphone with

premium features, at an affordable price point. Xperia M2

is the best smartphone technology in its class1, featuring

a top of the range processor, Sony’s TV and OmniBalance

design expertise, a razor sharp 8MP smart social camera with Exmor RS for mobile and

Sony’s top of the range movie, gaming and music entertainment.

This reference guide is designed to help you quickly understand and make the most of

some of its key features. Also provided are some quick, easy to access assets that you

are free to use as you like.

Sony’s premium design in a mid-range phone

Xperia M2, similar to Xperia Z2, has a look that’s distinctively Sony: beautiful, smooth

surfaces, exquisite attention to detail and a solid premium feel. Available in three striking

colours – black, white and purple – and with Sony’s celebrated OmniBalance design,

this quad-core powered smartphone is housed in a sleek and premium 8.6mm slim

design; making Sony’s Xperia M2 the slimmest 4G smartphone in its class2.

Xperia M2 comes with a super bright 4.8”

qHD?

The term qHD is used when referencing the resolution quality of portable screens and stands as

an acronym for quarter High-Definition. So Xperia M2’s qHD screen has the resolution quality of

960x540 pixels. That’s one quarter of a full HD television screen. Which is more than enough for

you to view a quality film or beautiful photo whilst on the go!

qHD display that builds on Sony’s

expertise in screen technology. This

display illustrates our dedication to

quality and craftsmanship, bringing you a wider viewing angle with IPS and the bright

clean whites, deep reds and vivid greens that are displayed in all of Sony’s premium

products.

World’s best smartphone camera in its class

3

With Xperia M2 we have created a quad-core

phone with a camera that captures pictures of

exceptional quality and clarity. The 8-

megapixel camera features Sony’s Exmor

RS™ for mobile image sensor and HDR for

both pictures and videos, along with a wide

range of Xperia camera apps, including

Timeshift burst, Picture effect and Portrait retouch. These features come together to

make Xperia M2 the world’s highest resolution camera4 and the best smartphone

camera2 in its class. Combining the expertise and heritage of Sony’s Cyber-shot

cameras, with the display and screen quality of Sony’s TV technology, Xperia M2 is

perfect for capturing and viewing all of your favourite moments in brilliant quality.

Superior Auto - for perfect photos

From illuminated night views to close-up macro photos, Superior Auto recognises up to

36 scene types and adjusts the settings automatically to help you get the best photos

anywhere, at any time. As the default camera mode, Superior Auto turns HDR on and off

depending on your scene to make your photos look natural – even in backlit conditions,

helping you get the perfect photo, no matter where you are.

Suggested Demo: Turn the camera on and pan around a bit. As you point it at different

subject matter you will see the camera automatically selecting new scene settings in the

bottom right hand corner.

SteadyShot™ – A

smoother experience

Shooting a steady video with your

everyday smartphone isn’t easy.

Images get blurred and videos can be

all over the place. With the Xperia M2

it’s a different story. SteadyShot ™

compensates for your movements, making panning smoother and the image more stable

even in Full HD 1080 video. The outcome is gorgeously steady and distortion-free videos

that you ensure you don’t miss that perfect moment.
