Thought the same but checked the signal bar seems pretty stable and standard. LTE around 2-3 bar.
I'm using maxis.
Maybe this weekend wanna find time to reset back.

batt life has been disappointing as well. sound is so soft i struggle to listen to music. you guys not having any prob with super soft speakers? back when i had z5 it wasnt this bad

my opinion so far
1. battery life
mediocre. assumption of Sony greatness in optimizing, light software UI, small screen and FullHD screen to translate for good battery life  somehow not materialize. i dont play game, SOT hardly can reach 4 hrs. (sync always ON, location set as battery saving, auto brightness).

2. fingerprint
demn good!  thumbup.gif

3. smoothness.
impressive when consider it only have 3gb ram. satisfied and smooth. no issue. only minor gripe noticed kinda lag/slow response when using RSbrowser when press new tab.

4. build quality
picture didnt justify it's beauty. it looks ordinary but when holding it, feel great!
nice in hand feel. screen to body ratio can be better though  laugh.gif

5. dual speaker
meh. quality not that good. maybe better a bit then others but the loudness really like  sweat.gif
soft. at least last time when using Z2, i'm satisfied with the speaker when compared to other flagship at that time. this one like, common. it is Sony, should have great audio also.

6. reception & call quality
good. happy. no issue like any other smartphones i used before

7.UI
light and easy. i like it. much better than S7Edge UI. but bomb7 Grace UI also pleasing to the eyes.
sony music app among the best.

8. video recording
no personal comment. dont bother to record any video even with previous smartphones. from youtube, sony EIS/steadyshot looks awesome.

9. still camera
in good lighting, satisfied. nice!  smile.gif  thumbup.gif just need to ensure steady hand but autofocus can be better though and saving picture even @ 8mp, for me i would say damn slow. need to blame UFS storage in boomsung phone.
low light...so so. im not camera guy that like to fiddle with the setting before take picture, for me, when wanna snap, press wanna it to be nice and good. but with XZ, need to put more effort in capturing photo.
in general, a bit disappointing coz after few z series generation, a great mobile camera sensor maker and great camera PNS/DSLR maker still playing catch-up game in camera optimization in mobile phone even with their own sensor  whistling.gif
other OEM like HTC, Google, Samseng or even chinese OEMs able to finetune Sony's sensor to produce better image and Apple by using much smaller size sony sensor optimize to produce better image than flagship Sony sensor in Sony phone then something not right in Sony's camp.

10.will i recommend to average joe outside?
nope. some of my friends who are looking to replace their bomb7, asked me about this XZ when saw i used this phone the last 2 days in office, i just told them better just get S7e to replace their bomb7.
when asked why i bought this, i just said, typically i favored either Samsung flagship or Sony flagship, so it's time for sony. after all i had used the last 4 samsung flagships (s6, s6e, s7e, n7)
and i told them,the spec certainly not worth to buy this phone @ 2699 from retail shop. if wanna buy js buy from gemfive, find seller @ 2499 and use discount coupon to make it around 2.28k.
if wanna pay 2.5k, better js get Huawei P9+ or S7e.

the above opinions may sounds negative but yeah that's my personal thought it.
do i regret bought it? nope.  smile.gif
using XZ naked without any case, the feeling itself is priceless.

good and honest review, exactly my thoughts too.

using any sp btw? i stil have back ugly film on while waiting for clear coat

Hmmm... On battery something may not be right. If I don't play games I can get 5 hours sot. Play games like jurassic world, coc and pokemon still able to get 4 hours sot. Not sure why your sot only 4 hours without gaming...

Speaker... Haha... Maybe I compare to z1 which only have a bottom firing speaker only. So the ones on xz sounds much better to me. But still I don't think it's on the soft side as I do not have any trouble listening to music or watching video. Maybe different expectation.

Others I pretty mucb agree with u

Oh... What's the speed of charging using quick charger? I just try the quick charger today. Charged 40mins battery go from 20% to 60%. Like 1% per minute... Is that speed normal for qc3?

i noticed. the charging speed seems slow too
