Android Oreo approaches your Xperia XZ Premium

The company has made this announcement through its corporate blog. And along with the news of the update, he has also commented on some of the new features that will come to the XZ Premium with the new Android Oreo software.

Announced as early as September, Sony will roll out its 3D scanning feature, 3D Creator , to the XZ Premium. It first appeared on the Xperia XZ1 and XZ1 Compact and allows you to scan an object in order to produce a 3D digital render of it that can then be modified and shared.

Along with this functionality, two other new camera features: Predictive Capture (smile) and Autofocus Burst. With the first, the photos are taken automatically when the software detects that the main subject of the photograph is smiling. It occurs even before you press the button so you can get multiple photos and select the best one. With the second function the captured photos will be more precise when it comes to moving objects.

Sound quality has also been improved thanks to "tuning enhancements" to the front speakers and aptX HD audio support, as well as new Android Oreo app shortcuts.

The launch will take place in stages, which means that Android Oreo will not appear on all devices at the same time, although it should not be delayed more than a week, two at most.
