as mentioned, excessive force

if a small force can bend a phone, then it's dooms day.

i decided to give up chasing phones, instead, i got myself a semi pro camera.

Ya. I never chased phones. It is however time to upgrade to the Z6. My phone is too old already. Lagging is too obvious now haha. Hope it gets announced during the MWC.

This is really tight lipped. No leaks at all until the final moment. Looks like Sony is really keeping the Z6 to later this year.

From this article, they state X-Performance is for Asia only. Quite confusing. Maybe Sony hasn't plan any release countries yet due to it coming out only around June.

Anyway, from the white paper of X-Performance there includes every possible LTE band out there. So, it is possible that it will be released in Malaysia.

I heard that z5 series is the last model in Sony mobile z series. It is being replaced by the x series. This is quite sad to hear as I just bought the z5p and it is being outdated soon by the X.

Lol. Don't worry about catching up. When I bought a new Xperia, I effectively turn off my antenna from all new Sony phones until it starts to lag from Lollipop onwards...

Actually, u all using back cover for Z5 ??
*
My Z1 never had a back cover due to preference with dock to charge.

If I own a Z5 I will use cover for sure.

I'm curious. Anyone can run spotify and a browser and not have spotify auto quit after browsing for a while?

On such a small but high resolution screen, watching any high resolution content really hard to differ if compared to a resolution that is closer.
*
Small screen or not I think you can still observe better texture. 4K is four times of FHD resolution size. The problem is only with the content is not really 4k.

I think the most important factor should be whether you can tahan the curved edge of the device or not nod.gif
Some ppl dont like the curved edges of the screen, prefer a flat surface type
*
Curved edge is nice until you drop it and watch the crack spreads!

Lol dont drop the device lor tongue.gif
And use protective casings/tempered glass to reduce the chances of a broken screen

Then the device will no longer be edgy. Totally defeats the purpose. I want to like Samsung but each time I see their home button I see them as Apple copycat. I would move to Apple than to stick to Android with Samsung...just saying.

I also don't like the home button. Worst is now xiaomi and htc also copy that home button... There goes my Android phone choices...

and htc even dump the boomsound stereo speaker for that home button! Alamak....

If I am to choose now, I will go with Z5. Frosted glass is good. I am tired of the fingerprint magnet at the back lol

For software parts, believe Samsung deliver the best. From app support, mostly app are optimized for Samsung phones as fragmentation in Android market is a lot. Developer will only select few samples in different resolution to optimize it.. They should be leading in this part.. So sometimes u found some game able to play smooth in Samsung phone than other manufacturers in same specs.
*
No doubt Samsung has the best internals. If Sony leaves mobile, then I will go to Apple. Samsung design fails. They simply have no desire to change their front look ever. Maybe their sensors sometimes move to left sometimes to right. But it looks the same all the time. Same boring earpiece. Same indistinguishable buttons....

That means z5P pretty much last a whole year as Sony's flagship. I hope it is going to be good.

But in recent news, they finally posted profit for the mobile division.
That was after lots of cost cutting steps. sweat.gif

I also don't know what they want to do. How do they expect people to buy their phone ar? Even newspaper ads also tak ada. The second biggest manufacturer that spent money on advertising is Huawei and I'm not surprised they are where they are now after Samsung.

I am clearly not impressed with the XZ. And no doubt they are going to price this above RM3k.

One good thing is can finally skip the Z5 for those who were looking at the Z5 before the IFA.
