[@TheDrugking]

People don't care to review sony phones cause sony are not innovative in the mobile industry. They are only good for over pricing their mobile phones.

[@TheDrugking]

@Ezugo Obuekwe alot of points made there by you, i was formerly a sony fan and i formerly owned two sony phones when sony were still innovative but that was the past. sony can't keep up with the recent heavy competition believe me brother.. till date sony couldn't make a curved display oled television, back to mobile topic, sony is finding it very very difficult to make a bezeless display, small companies like Vivo and oppo are doing this without any issues, all Sony phones are just too big. Sony makes phones with serious hardware - no argument. Look at Samsung, they are ready to battle this up coming Asia companies with angry Innovation, Huawei brought out three rear cameras, Samsung responded twice with galaxy A7 2018 and galaxy A9's housing 4 rear cameras. Other Asian companies are putting very large batteries on slim devices, Samsung tried it and it cost them so much loss(note 7) but Samsung refused to quit there and they finally achieved their goal with galaxy c9 and note 9. I don't know if you understand me. We have too many smartphones with curve display, even Xiaomi note 2 is a curve oled display, sony is just releasing a curve display mobile 2018 ending lol, first 4k phone sony Xperia z5 premium, the screen alone was draining the mobile battey fast because sony did not do their home work well before putting out the device, Samsung always provide you with options to adjust your screen quality between qHD and fHD cause they they are brainy.

people don't get that every oled panel in the market is an AMOLED.(active matrix oled) . The real P-Oled is PMOled(Passive Matrix Oled){found in those old colorful mp3 players}. The P OlED you are talking about is Plastic Oled refering to the use of bendable plastic as OLED medium. Samsung, LG, JDI ,etc all use the same "Plastic " approach to OLED and all of them are AMOLED. they all have a different way of marketing to appeal to the wide masses so that they'd buy their phones.

I wouldve bought it, no questions ask. Only thing stopping me is the headphone jack 😭 im holding on to my xz premium. Amazing battery life, 6hrs sot 20% battery. Mostly youtube with lots of calls and messaging. Mixed use of data and wifi. Also, i love bezels. I hope they keep this style than adapt that darn notch that just won't die. Also i will miss the side fingerprint sensor. It feels so natutal and can never go back to the back one.

[@Knowbody42]

I bought a second XZ Premium, unlocked its bootloader, and installed Carbon ROM on it. Very clean ROM which runs really smoothly, and uses significantly less battery. Does more for me than going from a Snapdragon 835 to an 845 would. I'll unlock the bootloader of my first one and install Carbon ROM on it too, but first I need to back stuff up, because unlocking the bootloader erases the data.

[@racingcart1226]

I don't see the big deal, they give you an adapter in the box... You may be thinking, "what if I want to listen to music and charge" however I find this argument really stupid considering not many people do that - if you think about it; it would be really uncomfortable on any phone to charge it and listen music at the same time unless a powerbank is involved. I mean, if you really wanted to listen to music while charging you could just purchase a cheap dongle off the internet.

This phone is quite expensive for what it has to offer. $900 dollars in the US market, better off getting a galaxy s9 which runs between 500 to 750 unlocked, just slap on a nova launcher if you hate Samsung UI. The design would have been better, if the front looks more like an lg v30 or v35 with a thinner head and chin.

The location of the fingerprint scanner is exactly the best position when you use the QWERTY keyboard handheld position, and when you put the XZ3 horizontally, your left and right index fingers also can easily press the fingerprint scanner at the same time because it centered position. The designer considers that the user operates the phone at the lower part of the phone instead of the middle part. If you handling middle part of the device the bottom of the phone is blanks/without support and there is a risk of the phone slipping down. Try to Place your little finger at the bottom of the phone it will be much safer and better grip and won't slippery. At this time, your index finger should be at the location of the fingerprint scanner.

almost as good as Samsungs???? its better than Samsung's displays ...check the facts. in fact do a blind test covering the bodies and show only the screen and see which best display phone does people prefer

[@MatthewMoniz]

I have all the displays here dude it's REALLY good but it's not as good as the display on the iPhone XS or Galaxy Note 9 but VERY close. Honestly whether I had this display or the other one I'd be happy either way

[@j0lly.j754]

are you claiming that because they are "pleasing to the eyes, brightness, etc" and not considering Color accuracy and reproduction?

[@j0lly.j754]

they have the best color reproduction on the market rn , true to life color and not over saturated like Samsung's plus has other bunch of features like hdr rec 2020 , x reality engine, etc . which the others two deprive of. Plus, its screen is produced from an expensive technological method compared to that of samsung and iphones. and the highest pixel density, although that is irrelevant.

@@MatthewMoniz If so, do the test like he said. I highly doubt you're being unbiased here. I know this is because i have the xz3 and my friend's xs looks washed out lmfao. Even he was shocked to see the difference. There is no way what you said is accurate. I am 100% certain youre in a position where you can't say that the xz3 has a better display. I am sure we all know what that situation is. But if you do an unbiased test and cover up the brands. I'll guarantee sony is better.

glad sony dont put notch in their phone

[@davidhunsinger1587]

Not sure why, Sony phones look so stale

[@j0lly.j754]

you don't get their design philosophy

[@j0lly.j754]

its phones are not made to look strinkingly beautiful or shiny, but over time you will love it so much. Its kinda like those songs which the first time you hear , you don't like them but you listen again and then again, you become so addicted to it.

[@samsonokoro5036]

It has front facing stereo speakers top and bottom the reason for the bezels. The others with smaller bezels don't have this feature.

This review is the only reason I found you and the only reason I will sub to you

[@yordan826]

Gorgeous device from Sony but their phones always leave unfulfilled, they always miss something like this phone has everything perfect but they went back to a single lense set-up instead of the dual setup on the XZ2 premium, I gotta say this device is the most beautiful device Sony has ever put out and it wouldn't be for the downgraded camera it would be a must buy for me, I really hope they get it right next time cuz I love Sony products and if they do it will probably replace my Galaxy s9+.

[@Wuozlinga]

Oh man Sony. I want to give you a chance, but your phones are always outdated, bad specs and bad design flaws like fat bezels, dumb fingerprint sensor placement

[@skorpio88]

O shit! From the front, I thought that was pixel 2 xl 😅 the bezels are very similar

[@RX93akhrouk]

I've waited and I got it today. whatever its specs are, I'm glad with it!!

[@alvarez321]

That phone seems trash tbh

[@wayneljm]

Slaps in the beginning are great, opens my attention pretty quick. I own the xz2 and the finger print sensor is positioned in the middle which serves to do a few things which I appreciate. It allows you to pivot directly in the middle, while holding the phone, you may grab it securely and flip it to the correct orientation and be unlocked at the same time. The one handed mode works well with the lower sensor, and the one thing no one mentions is how slippery it is which means you need a case with grip and the hole in the back actually allows you to better shoot for that position intuitively without looking, just aim for where you think the middle is. The bezels are needed for a spot to put your thumbs without accidental screen input and I believe its necessary with most full screen apps having a long press feature you avoid this easily. The headphone jack is omitted because the sensor in there can actually affect the microphone and speaker functions when wet and it can cause the device to record silence and have faulty playback thinking there are headphones plugged in, the usb-c adaptor solves this, just use wireless charge when needed.

[@raymondfoo9045]

Hmm, that charging brick is the same as my XZ1's. There is symbol of quick charge on it, I thought it is fast charger? Please help on this.

[@nekthomatah7558]

Any heat issue when playing some games or multitasking?

[@keng8883]

Bezels are way better than a notch.
