All devices under the Sony Xperia Z3 series feature the latest battery technology which can last for up to two days equivalent to several hours of movie marathon.

How Long Will The Battery Last?

A blog post from Sony Mobile explained the new battery technology features on Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact. It can last up to two days, according to the company. Two days is equivalent to the various scenarios and usages below:

1. Up to four non-stop round trips from London to New York or fly once around the world

2. Up to 32 films of movie marathon and enough to watch the Harry Potter series twice

3. Up to 11 running marathons

4. Up to 960 speed dates covered

5. Up to six seasons of the TV series "Friends" or 144 episodes of TV shows.

Sony Mobile also implies that running out of battery during certain events can be very frustrating. These include being locked out in the middle of the night, meeting a celebrity for a selfie photo, getting disconnected from a call after waiting for 30 minutes to be answered by customer service and traveling for several hours.

Based on the official site of Xperia Z3, it features the Ultra STAMINA mode which enables the Extended Standby mode even if the display is turned on—different from normal STAMINA mode on other Xperia devices. Additionally, Sony installed an updated processor for improved performance with the right amount of power needed.
