Another awesome new Waterproof smartphone from Sony is here! The cool new Xperia Z1s can be put in 4.5 feet deep water for 30 minutes without any adverse effects. The 21 Mega Pixel camera smartphone is an improvement of Xperia Z which could be submerged in 3 feet water.

You can also broadcast any event or wedding in real time, by sharing the links on Facebook. The camera sports a Bionz image and G Lens processor.

There is an app available in store which is a partner to Sony’s PlayStation. The app is for players to buy new games with an automatic download feature. People can also watch footage of a friend’s game play through this app. Since the Z1s is an updated version of its predecessor Z1, it looks quite similar. The design of the Sony Xperia Z1S makes the headphone connector waterproof as well, without the need for a elastic cover like the Xperia Z.

The connectivity options of the phone include Wi-Fi, NFC, 3G, Xperia Link and Bluetooth. From January 13, users can place online orders to own the phone. It will be available in stores from January 22^nd roughly costing Rs 37,500 ($528).

Along with this phone, the Japanese tech giant is also hoping to launch the Xperia Z1 Compact. The prices are not revealed yet, but the phone is said to be a model that can be placed in between the Xperia Z and the Xperia Z1.  With the 4.3 inch HD display, the device is powered with Qualcomm Snadragon 800 quad-core processor. The back panel holds a 20.7 mega pixel camera with LED flash and a 2 megapixel is available in the front. Sony is all set to make a huge comeback into the smartphone industry.
