This is a great phone. It does everything that I expected it to do. The eternal monitor app works perfectly (which is the main reason that I wanted the phone), the camera quality is great. I've only had the phone for a couple weeks but I have zero complaints.

Tailor-made for professionals in the field
The Xperia PRO enables broadcast and photographic professionals to work faster and smarter than ever before. Featuring HDMI connectivity, it supports 5G mmWave and 5G Sub-6 for high-speed data transfer and is engineered to optimize signal reception.
Enhance your workflow with HDMI connectivity
Thanks to HDMI connectivity, you can connect the Xperia PRO to your camera, making a range of tasks easier-from monitoring images to live video streaming using the speed of 5G. Your workflow has never run so smoothly.
Live broadcasting
Using a third-party live streaming application, the Xperia PRO can stream video content from the camera or camcorder that is connected to the HDMI input terminal.
Use Xperia PRO as a high-quality 4K HDR monitor
Use Xperia PRO as a high-quality external monitor or viewfinder with a range of useful settings such as brightness, zoom, and grid lines. Simply connect it to a camera supporting HDMI or USB video class (UVC).
Screen Zoom
This handy function lets you pinch to zoom in or out of images on the screen.
Grid Lines
Optional on-screen grid lines frame liens make it easier to compose your shots.
The Precision of 4K HDR OLED
With 4K resolution and support for the BT.2020 wide color space, the OLED display offers the image accuracy you need when you're working on location.
Brightness Adjustment
Easy and intutive to use, the application lets you adjust brightness level to suit different shooting environments and conditions.
Fast, easy file transfers
The wired USB connection between your Alpha camera and Xperia PRO enhances the speed and stability of still image file transfer-so you can concentrate on capturing the best shots. Once your images have been transferred onto your Xperia PRO, you can easily upload them fast to a FTP server using 5G mmWave.
Optimizing signal strength
The Xperia PRO features a 360 Degree antenna design, which covers the four sides of the device. Together with beamforming technology, it's the most effective way to capture high-band frequency 5G mmWave signals. In addition, a low dielectric constant material used in the chassis of the Xperia PRO enables radio waves to pass through more easily. Together, these technologies help ensure the best 5G mmWave connection, no matter how you're holding your device or where it's positioned.

5G mmWave-a new era for business broadcasting
Offering unrivalled data speeds and higher bandwidth, 5G Sub-6 and 5G mmWave technology heralds a new era for business broadcasting-and the Xperia PRO is compatible with both. Capable of even faster uploads and downloads than 5G Sub-6, 5G mmWave also offers remarkably low latency-essential if you're broadcasting live content such as sports or news.

Network visualizer app
Invaluable for camera operators on location, the network visualizer app shows your data transfer status visually and helps you locate the best spot for live transmission. It not only shows the current 4G/LTE signal reception, but also indicates the direction of the 5G mmWave signal that is being received, as well as providing communication throughput and histogram.
Endurance Mode for longer 5G mmWave usage
Created to support efficient data transfer, Endurance Mode is another feature unique to Xperia PRO. With Endurance Mode turned on, users can continue to transfer data at maximum performance while tethering Xperia PRO with a camera device.
Shortcut key
The Xperia PRO has a shortcut key which you can assign to launch specific apps.
Robust and reliable
The Xperia PRO is a tool you can rely on when you're out in the field. Robust and durable, it combines IP65/68 rating water and dust resistance with Corning Gorilla Glass 6 on the front for protection.
Outstanding ZEISS quality in your Xperia
ZEISS optics calibrated specifically for your Xperia smartphone. The ZEISS T coating contributes to exquisite rendering and contrast by reducing reflections. For true creative freedom, the Xperia PRO has three lenses in versatile focal lengths: 0.6", 0.9", and 2.8".
Professional technology from Alpha cameras
There's never been a smartphone camera that can capture shots like the Xperia PRO. It was co-developed with the engineers behind the latest Alpha 9 series cameras for industry-leading autofocus. Real-time Eye AF works on both humans and animals, and the interface is designed to meet the demands of professional photographers with new manual controls and RAW support.
