In addition to the OLED display requiring no backlight, the AQUOS zero adopts a magnesium alloy on the sides and light, high-strength Technora\u00ae aramid fiber*2 on the back to achieve a weight of just 146 grams, the world\u2019s lightest for a smartphone with a 6-inch or larger screen and a battery size 3,000 mAh or above. The AQUOS zero has a gently rounded convex screen that lets users enjoy smooth, natural touch operation. In addition, it features a high-performance Qualcomm\u00ae SnapdragonTM 845 CPU and large 6 GB RAM and 128 GB ROM, giving it high-speed processing so users can enjoy hours of video games and movies. *1 For smartphones with a 6-inch or larger screen size, a battery size 3,000 mAh (nominal) or above, and waterproofing (IPX5 or above).
