Strike first in the dark

L-γ raiser (Low gamma raiser) makes it easier to see opponents hiding in the shadows by enhancing image details in dark areas without overexposing bright areas of the screen. So you can react before they do.

Avoid unintended touches

In top-level gaming, you can't afford to make mistakes. So the Xperia 1 IV Gaming Edition lets you disable touch in the bottom left and right corners of the screen to avoid any unintended touches. You can also adjust the size of these false-touch areas or remove them entirely if you prefer.
