Screenshot on Sony Androids

Taking a screenshot is a much better idea than taking a photograph showing your screen. The screenshot captures exactly what you see, but without being blurred, having issues with being too bright/dark or being photographed from a bad angle.

• On a Sony Android device (e.g., Sony Xperia), you press the power button and the volume down key at the same time. The device typically produces a shutter sound as if you have taken a photo using the camera. The picture is now placed in your gallery and can be shared like any other picture.

Notice, that looking at the screenshot can be confusing as it looks exactly like your screen in exactly the same resolution. That means it looks as if it was the actual screen, but it is just your screenshot (i.e., a picture of your screen). The device is actually just showing a picture in full screen mode.
