This week physical stamina meets phone stamina as we challenged the Olympic triathlon medallists – brothers Jonny and Alistair Brownlee to an endurance test like no other.
The #GoTheDistance challenge involved a two day race across northern England where the sporting champions were pushed against a surprising competitor – Another athletic star? Another Olympic medallist? No, the brothers raced against the battery life of Sony Mobile’s new Xperia Z3 to test just how much is possible from one single charge.
Day one of the ordeal saw the brothers and Xperia Z3 compete through a range of events starting with swimming across the ice-cold Ellerton Lake, cycling the summit of Buttertubs Pass and finally running towards the Scottish border through Northumberland National Park.
The Xperia Z3 was used continuously throughout each stage and impressively ends “Day 1” with 50% charge, but which team will triumph in the end? The flagship smartphone or the world acclaimed sporting brothers?
You’ll have to stay tuned, but you can catch the first instalment of the action below:

Talking of transformations tomorrow marks the beginning of Movemeber.
The Movember campaign is an annual event that sees men from all over the world put down their razors for 30 days and dramatically change their appearance by growing an elaborate moustache. The event aims to raise awareness of men’s health issues for an array of charities by sparking conversations and raising funds.
Look out for some marvellous moustache makeovers whilst you’re playing your PS4 as illustrator Tom Mac has redesigned some famous Sony characters as ‘you’ve never seen them before’ including Sackboy, iota, Delsin and Ellie.
To showcase your own hairy makeover simply tweet us a photo with our official hashtag #PS4Movember. If facial hair isn’t your thing then why not support the cause by purchasing one of our DualShock 4 light bar vinyl moustache stickers and give your controller a revamp instead. Stickers are available at selected retailers now.
That’s it from us now; we hope you have a frightful Friday!
