Gonna join the XZ camp. The last sony phone i had was the z3.

Bought the xz from lazada at rm2249. It was listed at rm2469, but got additional 10% off for hsbc friday. Phone will arrive next week

Was on d fence before this, to buy or not. Then saw the offer , close eye n click purchase lol

Quite surprised too, hsbc 10% off.

Just got the phone this afternoon. Gtronic included a screen protector and clear case for free.

Still setting up few stuff, wanna try the ldac Bluetooth audio later. Wanna pair up with my abn-100 ldac capable Bluetooth headset.

First impression though, really rectangular phone with nice curve edges.

LDAC is an upgrade for bluetooth audio, hires audio sounds slightly better on bluetooth , still cant compared to wired but its good.

for non Hires Audio, sounds similar using either APT-X or AAC bluetooth encoding.

of course..nothing beats wired headphone/iems. But I think MDR-100abn is a good headset which support both LDAC Bluetooth and wired . The problem with wired 100abn is , it sounds awful wired if u don't turn the headset on. The sound becomes dull, but when u turn on the headset and used the wired connection, the sound is soo different.

Used the MDR-100Abn on my iPhone 7 n I think it uses the AAC Bluetooth codec, sounds quite good.

Tried using the XZ with my XBA-A3 for wired, sounds quite good.

still playing around with the camera. So far its quite good.

This XZ really changed my perspective on sony phone

my previous sony was a Z3, the back and front glass panel shattered in 2 different occasion. got fed up with the sony phone after that
