is the z series going to be discontinued and replace with this x series? the xperia x performance sure looks like a flagship spec

the curved glass and metal body looks yummy. but i was a bit let down on the small capacity battery

but that is only for video recording. it doesn't apply to taking photo

xperia x compared to z5. better screen and camera

yeah, maybe technically we don't need 4gb ram. also most user will not be able to tell the difference between 2k and fhd on a 5" screen. and also maybe the power optimization is so good that 2700mah battery is more than enough on Xp. all this only the tech savvy people will understand.

but then, on the marketing point of view, more is always better. people look at figures when doing comparison. the bigger the number equates to better spec. this is typical human nature

and also on the pricing. how is sony gonna price this xperia x performance? side by side comparison, its spec loses to s7 or g5. is sony going price this the same price range as s7 or g5? if so which device most likely people will buy? let's say same price 2.5k you get a 4gb ram, 2k screen and 3k+mah battery on the s7 vs 3gb ram, fhd screen and 2.7kmah battery on Xp. by this simple comparison, most will think the Xp is not worth it.

if sony price this like 300 or 400 lower than competitor, then maybe this Xp will still be able to find its market. if not i'm afraid things will not be looking good for sony...

haha... i'm also still using z1... but z1 only have 2gb ram, which i think by today's standard really is "just enough"

u can ignore him. i think he's bored trolling the s7 thread already

annoncement from Sony Mobile MY on their fb

not if it's more famous here but i'm definitely looking for a dual sim phone for my next smartphone. i travel overseas for work often and a dual sim version will be definitely more convenient

yeah... come this oct and it'll be 3 years. actually my z1 still serving me well after changing the battery. true that it launch apps a bit slower than newer phone and still it's not that bad that i consider it as lag. anyway i'm looking to upgrade to a dual sim, front facing speaker (got bored cupping my hand at the bottom speaker whenever watching video), and a better battery life phone

sony mobile my fb page does show a picture of 3 xperia x when they made the announcement. 1 is definitely XA. the other 2 which look identical, i assume it will be X and XP

i think uk and germany also not getting xp. well, maybe it's true that this XP was never meant to be a flagship. by releasing only x and xa, sony is targeting mid range market only and maybe at IFA will release a true flagship model.

just my tots

and so far still no solid leaks about any z ultra replacement

yeah... let's say sept announce another flagship model. by the time MY release it will be oct or nov... i might just get the XP also if the price is right.

sony mobile malaysia website already listed X and XA as coming soon. but no sign of X Performance....

http://www.sonymobile.com/my/products/phones/

they did mentioned the x series will be release sometime in june

and now there's Xperia X Premium

...more interested to know if the XP is coming to malaysia and its pricing

officially announced? guess i missed the news... too bad...

This is totally unexpected. The X beats the 10 in speed test! another video compares to G5 and the X seems like on par with G5

also there's video compare to S7 and S7 is still faster than the X.

that's really ridiculous pricing. maybe sony mobile thought their product is like apple that most user don't care about the spec and just buy their brand name

i hope sony have another flagship device coming this IFA... if not, this will be the worst year for sony mobile to date

so during the training, putting the price aside, what is the main selling point of xperia X?

aiyo... u also say like that, sony sure die straight straight lor
