How to take a screenshot on a Sony Xperia

Published

Menu names differ between software versions. If a path here does not match your phone, search your Settings app for the setting named in bold — it is the same setting under a different label.

Xperia phones offer the standard Android combination plus a power menu entry, which is easier one-handed on a tall phone.

Buttons

Press Power and Volume Down together.

Power menu

Press and hold Power until the menu appears, then tap Screenshot.

From Recents

Swipe up and hold, then tap Screenshot under the app card.

A whole page, not just the screen

Tap Capture more in the toolbar that appears after the screenshot, where the app supports it.

Where it goes

Google Photos → Library → Screenshots, or the Album app on older Xperia models.
