SONY Mobile Communications MEA showcased its latest award-winning smartphone, Xperia XZ Premium, for more than 180 select media and influencers from the Middle East and Africa region at its exclusive #Xperia960 event in Dubai. The largest event of its kind, #Xperia960 brought to life the world's 1st Super slow motion video capture via a smartphone at 960 fps (frames per second).

Sony Mobile set up four Super slow motion activity sets at the event including ‘The Fall of Faith', ‘The Confetti Wind Tunnel', ‘The Colour Bounce Station' and ‘The Great Balloon Drop'. Guests entered these activity sets to immerse themselves in the action, and videos were shot with Xperia XZ Premium in Super slow motion and broadcast live.
