Xperia ZL notification light changes colour like the Xperia U

by XB on 17/01/2013

The Sony Xperia ZL has a notification light, which Sony has emphasised in some of the press photos that were released. Whilst the notification light is quite small, it has a nifty LED that actually changes colour depending on what content is showing on screen. It works in a very similar way to the Xperia U, but as the Xperia ZL light is so small, the effect is much more subtle. Nonetheless it is a nice effect and you can see it in action in the video below.

Valid question. It’s not just a fancy indicator anymore… It’s a Sony mobile signature , brilliant feature and very useful tool that I personally value just as much as any other feature on Sony’s phones. Like u said… Shame it’s missing

Maybe, but it’s not a deal breaker. It is, for the most part, a novelty feature.

It’s good that it does not take much space like glowing XPERIA word on TX.

Any ideas if i will be able to disable this notification light on ZL?

It’s not the best phone Sony has ever produced, it’s the first phone has ever produced. And a great start too it is.
