Z5 Premium was priced at RM 3099, do you think a Sony phone with "Premium" name will be cheap? biggrin.gif

this is the one with snapdragon 835 right? if so rm3199 seems pretty reasonable to me, after some 821 processor flagship phone was selling at 2999?

the image quality. from my observation, it looks better than XZ but may not up to competition. battery life part, only judge once it is released.

P10 is 100% out from the list, they should've named it "Huawei P9.5". Maybe S8 will win the competition due to the new design and more exciting ideas for the current year.

No reviewer mentioned a single bit on the speaker performance, issit me the only one still cares bout it?

Sony has been kind to their customers to retain a dual front firing speakers for endless generations, but they are weak AF. Hope they can improve it.

found out that they still using the same gimmick as Z5P
https://www.lowyat.net/2017/126411/sony-xpe...emium-hands-on/

QUOTE
On the other hand, just like the Z5 Premium before it, the Xperia XZ Premium dynamically adjusts its resolution to conserve battery. We’re told that for now, only two apps fire up 4K resolutions: Amazon’s Prime Video app (which also supports HDR playback), and the default Gallery app. Developers will presumably be able to adjust their apps to enable 4K; in all other times the XZ Premium defaults to 1080p.



Sony still tirelessly use this trick to trick customers. What is 4K screen if without major app supports on it? even YouTube app also don't have 4K mode for Z5P. Might as well go for other phones with fulltime 2K screen ohmy.gif

after knowing this, XZP only left the slowmo video cam which is "exclusive" to them at the moment, eager to know what S8 will come up with, the leaked rendering looks promising

The 4K display, Sony wants to be the first (which they did!) and continue to offer for consumers. I dont mind the 4k display as long they have resolution settings like in S7/Edge, you can manually change to HD/fHD/2K and 4K for this phone. This way can prolong the battery life.

I'm so looking forward for this phone! That 960 fps is killing me. Previously this feature was in Japan only model (I forgot the brand).

For now it is 1080p in 4K screen
The font is more grainy than even Note 4
I using Z5P hence I know

In that case XZS is a more cost viable choice
The same history of Z5 vs Z5P repeating

I read another reviewer said there is indeed the option to select your desired screen resolution. But the display set sw is not finalise and so not able to show it.

4k is an option, an option is better for nothing. We consumer have 2 options now instead of only 1 beforehand! So its generally a good thing

XZs with S821, 4gb ram, 64gb storage, super slow motion hardware.. the pricing is quite fair for me..

but this device do not support HDR display.. also, HDR display must supported by HDR contents as well.. so.. hmm... normal display enhancement like bravia engine/x-reality/vivid mode can boost the display quality quite close to amoled level.. but it depend on personal liking

hmm.. i will wait for next flagship..3399 i will go if there are some free gifts when pre-order.. now XZs preorder will get bundles with some free gifts like SBH80, charging dock, tempered glass, etc... i will go for it if got free gifts..

currently im z5 premium user.. i feel xperia software quite user-friendly.. easy to use and hands-on.. but less customisable like china branded, such as huawei, oppo, xiaomi.. they offer much more user friendly features.. both have pro & cons.. depend on users..

in camera wise, the white balance in xperia always in cooler side.. luckily from z5 series onwards, they added 1 feature name Color & Brightness in superior auto mode.. which able user to adjust the tone accordingly.. so not a big deal.. in daylight most probably no issue with white balance.. only in yellowish situation, always give cooler images.. not sure how is the triple sensing technology improve this, but i dont think major improvement..

overall, quite close to natural colour without color saturation..

thanks for the feedback, customize is not a bit issue since i was using iPhone as main phone now (same time, Redmi Note 3 as toy to keep update of Android feature to not out of date in OS war) and i dont think customize is an big issue for me.

camera wise, since i will use main phone as primary day to day camera, white balance issue might be a bit headache for me, quite struggle to switch my main phone from iOS to Android as i have Android phone as second phone at the same time since last year X Compact was released. (due to its outlook)

As you said, if they offer lot of freebies, mayb i will give it a try.

for me, not a big concern for me for the white balance.. cause i able to adjust through the slider in xperia camera app.. name color & brightness.. it's useful for me to get my prefer white balance & brightness..

so far from Z5 premium onwards, all flagship come with free gifts if u place pre order..

Z5 premium = smartwatch 3
XZ = SBH80, microSD?!, tempered glass, case
XZs = almost similar as XZ.. + type C charging dock..
XZ Premium = unknown yet..

the reason i bought xperia z5 premium in previous due to the only flagship come with dual sim + microSD.. that point of time, all come with standard 32gb+3gb ram.. but z5 premium come with additional microSD..

when come to year 2016, game had changed.. 64gb, 4gb ram.. even more with 6gb+128gb..

seem like they cant sell it cheap so they give you free gift as alternative way for devices discounts.

is there high quality 3rd party accessories maker for Sony Flagship? or the only way is to stick with Sony Official Accessories. The mirror back is nice but the official case seem cover it and too shy to show off its design.

haha.. that's one of the reason i bought z5 premium.. sexy mirror back.. i only put on tempered glass on both front and rear..

excluded the needs of dual sim, with 3k budget, i will go for android due to open source and more user friendly.. especially, transfer music, photo, video.. i can send to my friends through bluetooth/nfc beam (uncompressed). mostly android phone will have option to expand storage.. (i can keep my photos/video into microSD easily with low cost, 32gb/64gb class 10).

there are few famous sony accessories maker like devilcase, spigen, ringke, lovemei, nillkin, and etc.. these few brand are quite easily to find in local market.. there are some japanese maker as well but im not familliar..

recently i always buy tempered glass in bulk only.. didnt use any casing anymore.. feel it's waste of money to cover the beauty of each phone..

excluded the needs of dual sim, with 3k budget, i will go for android due to open source and more user friendly.. especially, transfer music, photo, video.. i can send to my friends through bluetooth/nfc beam (uncompressed). mostly android phone will have option to expand storage.. (i can keep my photos/video into microSD easily with low cost, 32gb/64gb class 10).

there are few famous sony accessories maker like devilcase, spigen, ringke, lovemei, nillkin, and etc.. these few brand are quite easily to find in local market.. there are some japanese maker as well but im not familliar..

recently i always buy tempered glass in bulk only.. didnt use any casing anymore.. feel it's waste of money to cover the beauty of each phone..

Same to iOS, if you are using Mac OS it is super user friendly like how android can do, and some convinient staff between mobile and macbook/mac itself.

is the edge or frame of Z5p easy get dent or crack like other aluminium frame phone? ALKALEIDO not used in Z5p rite?

Still no news on the availability?

If they don't launch this before the much hyped s8 their sales is deemed to go low.

not sure how far S8 sales will go since the explosion gate.

Seem like many switch to iOS or Huawei after that incident.

for XZs, confirmed will launch in mid of April with price rm2899.. XZ premium will be available late spring.. which i guess around July.. i guess this is due to the supply of chipset 835..

from latest leak from eprice.tw about s8, actually nothing surprise from s8 in my opinion except the super narrow bezel..

yes.. if you are Mac user then it's pretty useful.. in my case, my z5p side edge didnt have visible scratches.. only few light scratches around my charging port which caused by myself when i trying to plug in the cable.. 4 corner frame which is plastic had been scratch badly but i had replaced it by my own at cost around rm15.. LOL.. 4 corner frame in plastic due to signal reception problem, they designed it purposely without the line on the phone..

where you get the replacement parts by your own.

so many rumours from S8 especially regarding 1000fps super slow mode, but i am doubt the acuracy since the source are from S.Korea (like to claims say how great are them)

huawei gain a lot of market share recently due to Leica..

but i would say most consumers doesnt buy according to their needs.. iOS is really useful in US and some other europe countries because they have a lot of vendors using Apple Pay.. and also because of this, they are really can enjoy the iOS like iMessage, FaceTime, and other stocks apps in iOS..

but when come to our country, it isnt useful? did everyone know how to use their smartphone.. i'm not condemn other smartphone.. but i speaking based on my personal experience.. a lot of people just feel the product is great and they buy it.. ended up they using for normal daily usage.. did they know about NFC? USB OTG? MHL? screen mirroring?

even recently we have samsungpay/maybankpay/cimbpay through NFC, but most of ppl worried about card information stolen issue.. OMG..

some of my friends bought huawei p9/mate 9 due to my recommendation because they like dual camera.. but they dunno how to use wide aperture mode as well, (my gf also).. but they are happy with it.. so nothing wrong and bad.. as long as people are happy with what they spend which is sufficient already.. i like to use almost all the features.. personally i like samsunng pay solutions in cardless payment method.. i like the way of huawei implemented their dual lens software.. i like sony camera hardware, i like the pricing of Xiaomi, i like the system optimization of iOS.. but all these are not able to mix together...

i like to stay neutral and have sharing with my friends each other..

i get it through taobao.. very cheap cost and the colour is matched..

hands on from eprice.tw which mentioned they didnt see any super slow motion feature in s8/s8+ that they experienced.. they confirmed most of rumours like the bixby & quick button to access bixby below the volume rocker.. the fingerprint scanner on the back.. no fingerprint scanner on display.. facial recognition unlock method (software did mentioned it's insecure way).

if you know how to read mandarin, then head over to their website and find the article..

cant agreed with you anymore. most of the people just follow trend and even listen to weird myth from others.

example, year 2017 now and still many people using iPhone Cacat Button (AssistiveTouch) and i ask why, they say dont use later button will spoil.

Use smart phone, then don wanna to upgrade the OS (android or iOS), i ask why, they say many people say upgrade ad will lag.

Then when buy Lithium-ion polymer battery phone they say wanna charge for 8 hours.

and many many lol...


Regarding Eprice News, yes i did read it. seem beside the screen, nothing special.

Haha true.. but I will try to explain to them unless they very stubborn. Normally recommend all the devices based on their preference.. s8 hype not really much to me. But Samsung keep trying to explore new things especially on display and chipset. Great efforts.

BTW, I feel xz premium quite satisfied this time although many people condemned the fingerprint magnet of device, big bezel, and old design looks. But it's personal liking.

the improvement of XZs over XZ are:
1. RAM 4gb vs 3gb
2. camera
Treat it as "face lift".

the difference of XZP over XZs is huge.

currently using Z2.. XZP is obviously better spec, but i'm not really into 5.5" screen... haha

XZs is official priced at RM2899.. while XZ premium, no announcement to this yet.. expect another USD100 on top of it meaning at least rm3399 or more for XZ premium..

"Sexy" is in the beholder's eye, as I can said that both devices are totally the opposite of each other.

XZP got "HUGE" bezel, S8 got Edge.
XZP got stereo speaker, S8 got iris scanner.
XZP got slo motion camera, S8 got AI Assistant.

ultimately it depends on what is your "shutupandtakemymoney" tolerance or "dealbreaker" feature.

Both should be the cutting edge of the flagship phablet. Can't go wrong with either of them.

not sure is it real... but there some rumours going around there... hopefully they reduce it.... otherwise they price themselves out of competition.... looking at their past pricing... i think its quite likely to be this high... or around this radius.... given the xzs also 2899 already.... and their z5 last time 2699.... despite their competition all stronger than them....

FYI very few outlets including the telcos themselves are willing to take your used Sony smartphones

they more prefer from the order of: Samsung, Oppo, Huawei

(yes, even Oppo also they take, they just don't want your Sony whistling.gif)

Sony is like hey everyone, we are the first in the world to use Snapdragon 835 10nm and we beat Samsung S8 to the punch by announcing much earlier than them.

What kind of product launch strategy is this to announce a flagship product 4 months earlier before it goes on sell? Wanna make Sony diehard fans suffer 4 months kah like Apple diehard fans?

195g.. Obese and overweight phone..

5.5 inch screen seriously..

According to some reviews they say the camera is not even as good as a S7 and S8 shooter which is weird consider that almost all flagship phones uses Sony IMX lens.

And look at those thick and sexy 'bezel' for a 2017 flagship lol

Speechless.

2) No mention if this phone supports double tap to wake/sleep (XZs doesn't)

Sony is also offering a pre-order incentive in select countries. Germany gets the best deal with a free pair of Sony MDR-100ABN headphones, worth close to €300. In the UK, you are given a free pair of Sony MDR-NC750 earphones, worth around £60.

If in Malaysia, Sony give MDR-100ABN too, definitely I won't missed the pre-order. biggrin.gif
That headphone cost Rm1299.

Food for thought.

http://indiatoday.intoday.in/technology/st...t/1/777064.html

This is only half of the story. The camera, beside producing pictures, also act as VIDEO recording.

Sony use no optical stabilization (OIS). Currently the 5-axis stabilization by them would produce the best video output. Avoiding optical stabilization also comes with some advantages, as utilizing OIS only results in videos that have a noticeably wobbly effect around their edges. You have to give Sony the thumbs up for the video department, whereby this had no competitor come close to Sony.

As a tradeoff, no OIS sensor would need lots of post processing in the still image. First it capture the image with its whooping f/2.0 19mp 1/2.3" sensor then start the image optimization, and by EIS & downsampling & adding dynamic lightning, etc etc. Every layer of post processing will takes a beat to the image quality.

I believe Sony had already had in mind what should be focus more and no doubt the video recording is what they focus more on. on the other hand they will still tryhard to make the image to be as close to the other competitor as possible. It still takes good photos to an average person for their mobile photo usage (fb, instagram, etc) whereby not much difference if it is taken that into consideration.

This review missing a ' /s ' at the end of it.

Missing OIS is not an advantage.

And that ois = wobbling effect comment is like an insult to their high end mirrorless that has ois.

Exactly. They didn't even include the Quick Charge 3.0 charger.

Summore, Quickcharge 4.0 is already out and unfortunately XZ Premium
doesn't support it at the moment (even though it is using Snappie 835)

"The UCH12 Quick Charger for XperiaTM XZ is included inside the box with the device."

I saw this under terms and condition part. Not sure is this means for XZ premium.

That's sad - but got used to having no double tap when I switched to XZs from the XZ.

Had a brief look at the demo unit at Sony KLCC - it didn't seem like it was very big - felt nice to hold actually. And the screen - its almost like its AMOLED - but I only spent a few seconds playing with it.. could be the brightness setting or something..

Btw, last time Xperia Z5 Premium pre-order includes too many freebies compare with this one. Smartwatch3, speaker and 007 stuffs. Only TnG Sony LE that interest me in this pre-order. I'll wait for used set that comes with freebies then.

there are buyers but slow paced buyers.
the headset is above decent grade actually, just that it is underrated.

And the dual speaker this time surprisingly loud and clear.

Saw that too. Surprisingly.. recent is versus one plus 3t 6gb RAM.. I think Sony software team did a well job in software optimization. They're try to serious nowadays.. but response not that popular as Samsung.. at least in Malaysia.. I saw quite overwhelming response in Taiwan.

erm.. actually those speed test is only for comparison purposes.. but in real life usage, people wont go care about the insignificant speed..

so far what i can summarize is the recent android phones either mid range/high end, definitely will provide quite good user experience compare to last time.. the rests are depend on features that offered by manufacturers and user have their own rights to choose whatever they want.. a lot of choices in android world while iOS trying to do the same trick by offering normal 4.6inch, bigger size 5.5inch, also offering older model and smaller SE version in lower prices just to target different audience segments..

Guys,

Thank you for the 11street tips.

Which one should I go for?
There a " (Ramadan Special Preorder) Sony Xperia XZ Premium 64gb/4gb - Official Sony Malaysia Warranty RM 3,299.00"

But that one doesn't seem to come with the pre-order gifts, does it?

Which store (seller) should I purchase from?

Thank you Hamtarox, really good advice.

I plan to buy this phone. But not sure whether to pre-order through 11street or wait till phone comes out.

When the XZ premium is officially in stores for walk-in purchases, do you think they'll still have pre-order gifts? Because I know some dealers, they will be offering discounts, maybe couple of hundred, but will the RRP still be RM3,399 and will they still have the gifts?

Warranty care+ covers only for cracked screen. Does not cover backlight bleed or dead pixel.
And can only claim once in entire warranty period.

I'll advise if you intend to purchase this phone with the Warranty Care+, take the effort to read the T&C before you buy. If you don't agree then rethink your purchase. Sony is not going to change the T&C for Warranty Care+ just because you want it differently.

Thank you Hamtarox, really good advice.

I plan to buy this phone. But not sure whether to pre-order through 11street or wait till phone comes out.

When the XZ premium is officially in stores for walk-in purchases, do you think they'll still have pre-order gifts? Because I know some dealers, they will be offering discounts, maybe couple of hundred, but will the RRP still be RM3,399 and will they still have the gifts?
*
to me, i know i'm going to change my Z2 sooner or later, so it really depends do you think it is worth for the freegift..

take example of XZ S previously, preorder was RM2899 + freebies..
after a month i asked from a local shop in melaka, they can offer RM2699
it's RM200 cheaper but without the freebies..
so i think more or less the same..

so since, i know i will change the phone for sure, it's just the matter of time..
then i decided to take the freebies, with 11st RM100 coupon, and TnG RM100 value.. ok lah, i consider it as RM200 discount.. icon_rolleyes.gif

oh ya.. add on, redeem all my BCard points for RM57, and use my credit card cash rebate, maximum RM50.. another RM100 discount. hahaa


Note: Deepsea Black sold out.. shocking.gif

Warranty care+ covers only for cracked screen. Does not cover backlight bleed or dead pixel.
And can only claim once in entire warranty period.

I'll advise if you intend to purchase this phone with the Warranty Care+, take the effort to read the T&C before you buy. If you don't agree then rethink your purchase. Sony is not going to change the T&C for Warranty Care+ just because you want it differently.

Pre-order is exclusively at 11street. Otherwise you will need to walk in to nearest Sony store.

Dear Hamtarox,

Thank you for all the advice, very much appreciated.

And I placed the order through 11Street, just 5 minutes ago from Thorus Technology, applied the RM100 voucher, and still managed to get "deep sea black" set

But email payment notification said "Celcom Planet Sdn. Bhd" not Thorus.

You are essentially wrapping your phone with plastic films. What they will do is to wrap your phone in one big plastic sheet (ignore their marketing gimmicks of nano film, self healing film, military graded film...it's essentially PET), and perform close to 100% accurate cutouts for openings like your ports, camera lens, flash...

It's not gonna protect you from drops, but definitely protects from scratches.

They cant justify also, just say its second batch.

Possible the batch define by quantity of total TnG ordered by Sony Malaysia.

So when the TnG finish reserved for preordered member, the rest of preordered item would be consider "second batch"???

so means preordered better than initial expectation???

Actually clear coat is pre templated/pre-cut films for different models.

They are first cut out, then only installed on phone surface.

A proper phone wrap is wrap first cut later.

Yes, they wont be wrapping your screen. You can use your screen protectors.

The films are quite thin so should be no issue in fitting cases, unless your phone case is super super tight fit, might damage the film la upon installation.

Tried also the 960fps, pretty hard to use it, need some practice first. The 720p video resolution doesn't look good on the screen though, should be okay once viewed from a pc monitor.

OIS is a big welcome. Xenon flash, nah but a dual or quad tone LED is preferable.
the irony is that the brightness of their mid tier smartphones (referring to XA1) has a brighter flash than their flagship albeit being single LED.

960fps which mean at least 1/960 shutter speed for each frame..

With such small sensor, the light enter to sensor is limited. Definitely must shoot in good lighting condition, daylight..

Are you sure? I watched some unboxing on YouTube and they do have somewhat decent quality canalphone. Would be really dissapointed if it comes with cheap earbud, given the pricetag. Btw does anyone know when will the xz premium be available in retail store?

S8 series headset is made by Samsung, tune by AKG.

Its should put Samsung logo instead of AKG logo.

Everyone busy with their new xz premium😎

Sim card tray a bit confusing. Ended up in sim slot 2. Now just know where the 1st slot. First impressions, BIG BIG phone compare to my 5" xiaomi. Need time to get used to it. Speaker, yes it's slow for front facing. Hope sony will do something in next update. LDAC is my focal point to buy this phone beside new SoC and camera.

u need to press then only will activate the fingerprint sensor... imho... finger print is more respond than z5p. i compare 2 4k hdr 60fps video.. zx premium color is more vivid n sharp! at 1st i feel zx premium color tone is abit yellowish while z5p is abit more to blue..seems like i just need to get use to it or adjust white balance. speaker volume is similar to z5p but at least is stereo. peformance wise is ok...play mobile legend few game is ok and it wont hot like my previous z5p... no time test camera and 960fps..now bz transfer data from previous phone n restoring whatsapp and wechat data

i see. the fingerprint sensor isn't like my expected. haha
i thought don't need to press at all (my mom's xiaomi phone jz place it finger then will wake the phone and unlock)

then no more double tap to wake the phone also..
so anyhow still need to press button to wake 1st, then only use fingerprint to unlock.

i not even transfer the sim card yet.. will do only time night.
today jz setup the phone n explore 1st.

so far so good. still much to explore.
havent put in simcard.
havent try to play around with camera & video yet.

1. was expecting fingerprint doesn't require to press the physical button.
2. screen protector size really bit cacat.. agree with @nanadeadbeat, easily collect dust.
3. clear case quality so so niah. will look for other options online.
4. i'm a big fans of sony straps hole, but already removed since the last few model.

The temp Glass quality really bad, can see the sticky side, going to change if other temp glass for premium is available.

And is there anyway to wake up screen other than press the power button?

Fingerprint on power button is the fastest.

They removed the feature of double tap on screen to wake up. Heard this is to save battery because in order to double tap, screen need to standby always and it drain the battery.

there is no indicator to show whether is in fast charging or not.. the only way to know whether in fast charge by guessing only.. let say your phone in 10% battery.. use that charger to charge 30 minutes.. see whether it can achieve more than 40% or 50%.. if yes = fast charging..

minimum speed standard for fast charging should be 1% per minute.

Interesting.

The charger that was provided with mine (Thorus Pre-ordered) is that of the Fast Charge variant, which was surprising as it was not advertised to be having it this time round.

Not sure if it is the same with the XZ Premium, but with the XZ, the fast charge slows down the closer it gets to 100%.

Meaning, 0-30% will charge much faster than 50-80%.

If you guys have a quick charging sticker on the box, then it comes with quick charger.

Edit : also, please note on the charger model as well. UCH12 is the only model that has quick charging.

I don't have pictures but we were briefed that in the box there's :
- the phone
- UCB20 cable
- UCH12 adapter
- MH750 in ear earphones
- Product warranty card
- User manual

It's the same for pre order customers as well.

Yes, it's the adapter.
Basically, any QC adapters that were built based on Qualcomm's technology are the safest to use on XZP or other quick charge devices.

An interesting challenge haha - lets see, if I'm not wrong:
- snapdragon 835
- internal 64GB storage
- RAM 4GB
- motion eye camera
- Adreno 540
- 960fps slo-mo
- Bluetooth 5.0
- USB 3.1

These are just specs - some features may just be gimmicks - you may need to hold the phone in your hand and decide whether to upgrade.

Some features removed in the xzp - fm radio. And double-tap.

1. Because your phone is outdated. tongue.gif
2. Because of SD810 caveat. tongue.gif
3. Because 32GB memory in 2017 is a crime. tongue.gif
4. Because Z5P doesn't have 4K HDR. tongue.gif
5. Because you will definitely love the phone. tongue.gif
All above are just a joke. tongue.gif

Anyway, the other members have replied you. For the SIM, you only can slot in either memory card or SIM card since it's no longer full dual SIM. To tap off, you can install 3rd party apps as alternative solution.

Wow - its that bad - did you try 'glove mode' to increase the sensitivity?

Things like this make me VERY hesitant to put on screen protector - i've gone without screen protector for:
XZ - used the flip cover - dropped on the floor - scratched the screen - minor scratches.
XZS - used only the free transparent rubber cover - no screen protector - no drops - had to be very careful.

And now premium - guess i will go without protector for awhile - seems like we protect the phone but get poor experience with touch sensitivity - or get a better experience but risk damaging the phone ...

XZP came with one year screen warranty anyway. Those who bought after pre order has this SWC+? I noticed on Sony website that now only comes with soft case and Sp.

I see - i noticed the one they gave free is curved to fit the sides better - thought it would be ok - was thinking of putting it on...

As for the free case - i wish they continued using the soft transparent one for XZ and XZs - this hard one is hard to put on and take out - Sony really likes to have surprises ..

yes. hi res audio and sony bluetooth support LDAC. 3x faster/3x the data transmitted compare to normal bluetooth wireless earphone...if u wan use 3.5 jack earphone u better buy DAC and attach to it...sony 3.5jack is so so and seems like not enough power to push a good earphone

It plays Hi Res Audio, but to push the boundaries of Hi Res musics, better match this phone with an amplifier. The output quality is decent only via the jack.
This is because Sony doesn't fit a DAC into the phone.

For such a small sensor and given the fact it's 30fps it's like that.

Very innovative technology but the usability not there yet.

To achieve super slow mo, the shutter speed need to achieve a certain high level, therefore if you filming at somewhat dark place, there is no way the aperture and ISO to compensate the light loss of fast shutter speed. Should be around 1/1000 shutter speed. I'm guessing this is what happen.

it's actually an integrated DAC in the SOC but the sound quality is inferior than a dedicated DAC (by dedicated DAC, means built into the phone's logic board).

however, despite the sound output, this is the best Xperia ever made.
still deciding to upgrade from Z Ultra or not. tongue.gif

For those who are planning on using the XZ Premium naked, do be aware that the glass portion of the phone can be slippery. My XZ P just fell from 1 feet. Placed it on a plastic stool, didn't realised and it slide off.

On flat surfaces, the top/bottom metal lips will hold it in place, but on smooth surfaces that in contact with the glass back more than the lips, it can slide around very easily.

it's the oleophobic coating. that's why it is very slippery.
nevertheless, still beware of the said case.

In your hands it's not slippery, but on some specific surfaces, especially matte plastic, the ones you find on those hard surface gaming mouse pads.

Just a heads up to other owners, at least this was from 1 feet, so nothing serious. Can't imagine if it was from a higher height.

Same goes to here. And the adhesive sucks and don't clear off after a day.

By the way the camera app seems to be laggy when use the default superior auto mode. Anyone? Battery life also like not that lasting as I expected, without power saving mode the battery like draining water.

Try turn off predictive capture, since the phone is taking pictures in background so you can choose for the perfect shot.
And try use for a few days. Like other smartphones, it will 'learn' your usage to adapt to it.

If you use indoor with fluorescent light, it get even worse you will see your shot flickering due to the light emitting in certain frequency, then your shot is faster than that. Perhaps don't use super slow mo at night?

Why do Sony's phone bezels get bigger and bigger each year? It will be nice if they put in an infinity screen as all the rest of the specs are good.

not defending the bezels but when playing games horizontally, it is much more comfortable than a near-to-no-bezel phone. plus, there are some hardware beneath the screen.
all this bezeless hype is just only a design cue.

The bezels are not only for the stereo speakers, also to house both the front and rear camera modules.

Yes I know, but still too big when other phones can do it in smaller form factor. For me will be perfect if top and bottom bezels are eliminated. Now it looks exactly like Xiaomi Mi 3 which is few years old already.

S7edge yes. S8 no, for two reasons.

1. S8 has a slight not so profound curve, compared to the S7e.

2. Software helps by not recognizing mistouches.

True, but when u compare to a lower end phone from the same manufacturer, the XA1, you have all rights to complain.

Iphone on the other hand, one dimension size je so take it or leave it.

People choose apple because of branding and software not the bezel but when u compare an Xperia zp you are comparing with every single Android phone in the market.

Sony bezel is very huge especially for a 5.5inch screen means the phone is huge. Smaller the bezel the bigger viewing size.

S8 already did it even so thin and curve edge there no mistouch. Eliminate the bezel give you a floating screen effect.

Xperia Zp looks outdated because most phone bezel getting smaller while this phone get bigger

well...this is very subjective n very own preference. like then like. don like then don like. XZP wont get best phone award without any reason. if u try elminate bezel on XZP it will look FUGLY IMHO. my conclusion is sony need a need design language if wan thinner bezel.since u say ppl buy apple for branding n software, i can also say ppl buy this phone for features(960 fps, 4k hdr, etc u name it)

very simple mah..
all manufacturer have their own design & direction.

not necessary everyone should follow the big trend.
if dont like then dont choose/dont buy it loh

it's really very subjective 1.. in chinese we call 见仁见智..
as for me, 16:9 screen is good enough for me.

and actually 5.5" to me i feel a little way too big screen, my previous Z2 at 5.2" was perfect size. but nowadays all flagship is like a "must" to have a huge big screen, i dont know why.
u can't get at 5" with snapdragon 835 spec (example), can u?
even samsung S series, the size now is already bigger than Note

To be frank, I've decided to not bait an eye towards bezel arguments. It's not like you are buying the phone solely just for admiring the bezels regardless thick or thin. rolleyes.gif

Hahahaha.. no need argue so much one la.. not to protect sony .

every phone have different features and advantages.. I hope to have all in one but this is impossible.. most importantly, find something that you really need it.. I'll always give suggestions to my friends based on their needs..

Sony have 960fps and captured natural color photos..
Samsung have Samsung pay, good camera and software features
Huawei have nice gesture customisation, dual camera with software aperture mode
LG have wide angle camera..

Aiyo, why so much self justification here.

As if sony one day comes out with a smaller bezel phone, you guys will go ewwwww!!! DITCH SONY I'm gonna go look for a bigger bezel phone!!!

It's definitely not a design language thing la. There are technological and technical reasons behind it yes, but don't come out with self justifying claims saying that it's for design reasons.

Same I don't see brand either I see the value, design and additional features then decided xpz is not my cup of tea because screen too small, bezel too thick, 960 fps video useless for me.,


Based on gsmarena review s8 vs LG g6 vs Xperia xz premium

Design
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. In this most refined incarnation of the dual-edge concept the Galaxy S8 is the most posh looking phone here, all the while being reasonably comfortable to handle. The fingerprint reader is obviously in the wrong place, though. The G6 feels bulkier, but offers a more secure grip thanks to fatter sides and flat screen, and undoubtedly a better placed fingerprint sensor. The XZ Premium isn't keeping up with the edge-to-edge trends this year when even Sony's own XA1 Ultra has gone on a diet and has shed the side bezels for a more modern look.

Display
Winner: Tie between the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. The S8 wins in brightness, contrast and outdoor visibility. The Premium is the sharpest by far, has the most usable screen area and allows streaming in 2160p across various services. The G6 supports Dolby Vision on top of the other two's HDR 10, but that's as much as it's got on the competition.

Battery life
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. The Samsung handset manages the best endurance with the smallest battery and has comprehensive battery saver options. The Xperia is similarly well-equipped in terms of battery saving features, but it's not as long lasting. The G6 is just average in both areas.

Connectivity
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. The G6 takes a hit for its older chipset that lacks Gigabit LTE and Bluetooth 5.0, while the S8 and XZ Premium sport the chips of the day and are mostly tied. Until the S8 pulls out its DeX trump card - of course, a handful of people will get one, but the option is there for those that want to.

Software
Winner: Tie between the Sony Xperia XZ Premium and the Samsung Galaxy S8. The XZ Premium will appeal to purists, while the S8 is the most feature-packed. The G6 offers little on top of stock Android, but is thoroughly redesigned nonetheless.

Loudspeaker
Winner: Tough one. We'd call it a tie as none really excels. The Xperia has stereo speakers going for it, but they're pretty quiet; the G6 is loud, at the expense of distortion at maximum volume; the S8 is the most balanced, but we can't call it a winner, when it doesn't have stereo speakers, and a competitor does.

Audio quality
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. The loudest output with the least degradation in quality when under load comes from the Samsung headset.

Performance
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. A predictable showing from the three phones in the benchmarks - the Galaxy S8 in Exynos trim is the usual chart-topper, followed closely by the Snapdragon 835-powered S8 and the Xperia XZ Premium. The LG G6 does the best with what it's got, but the last gen chip can't compete in the numbers game. That said, you'd be hard-pressed to find a substantial difference in the behavior of the devices in actual use.

Camera
Winner: Tie. The S8 has remarkable noise reduction that cancels out noise without affecting edge detail. It's also got the dual pixel autofocus, which is unmatched for speed and accuracy. The Xperia can capture an abundance of detail, has the widest dynamic range (even if by a small margin) and you can rely on Superior Auto to pick the right scene mode for you. The G6 deserves praise for what it achieves with the smallest sensor here - fine detail, well-controlled noise, good dynamic range. Not to mention that it's got two of them rear cams and the wide-angle one is massive fun to shoot with.

Camera HDR
Winner: Tie. All are decent, but far from remarkable. The S8 has a live preview, which is nice, the Xperia will handle HDR for you in Superior Auto, while the LG is a bit awkward in changing modes, but all of these are too minor to make a difference.

Camera low light with tripod

Winner: Sony Xperia XZ Premium. When properly supported on a tripod and in Manual mode (it's basically shutter priority, but still), the Xperia is capable of producing excellent low-light shots with total detail levels unmatched by the other two. The G6 may resolve a tiny bit more on a per-pixel level when shot from the same spot, but walk a few steps to frame the same composition on the Xperia, and the G6's longer lens advantage disappears. The Galaxy S8 can't compete for detail, but it's also got the lowest noise. Just make sure you don't go slower than 1/4s because the heavier noise reduction eradicates all intricate detail.

Camera panorama
Winner: Tie between the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the LG G6. The S8 is the sharpest but has that pesky exposure stitching ruining its shots, while the G6 has stitching issues on a local level. The Xperia doesn't stitch flawlessly either and is got the softest image.

Camera selfie
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. You may need to learn its autofocusing quirks, but once you do, the S8 will reward you with the most pleasing images of the three.

Video
Winner: Tie. It's nearly impossible to pick one of the three - they're that good. The Xperia scores major points for its slo-mo video, but some will argue it's of limited use. Good thing then, that the Sony smartphone also excels in 4K and has a stabilization that works. The Galaxy S8 captures very good 4K itself, but reigns supreme in 1080p, where its stabilization also functions better than in 4K. The G6 has perhaps the most detailed 4K video, and with a wide-angle cam on top of the regular one it's a boon for action shooters.

Video low light
Winner: Tie. To each their own. The G6 is a bit dark, but it's probably the most expressive here. The S8's footage is pleasantly punchy out of the box, while the more laid-back Xperia could use a boost of contrast, but some will appreciate its natural look.

So if you like $8 so much, what are you doing here? Do we need to justify our purchase to you? You think you can convince us to change to a Sammy?
Anyway does anyone here aware that the SURFACE AREA of the xzp is the same or slightly bigger than the S8? Not many are aware because of the aspect ratio.
Anyway I only buy either HTC or Sony. Nokia can be considered as well if their latest phones are decent. Sony also not considered by me until the xzp came out. Haha.

PS. S8 users don't be butthurt, your phone also not bad. Really!

Same I don't see brand either I see the value, design and additional features then decided xpz is not my cup of tea because screen too small, bezel too thick, 960 fps video useless for me., 
Based on gsmarena review s8 vs LG g6 vs Xperia xz premium

Design
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. In this most refined incarnation of the dual-edge concept the Galaxy S8 is the most posh looking phone here, all the while being reasonably comfortable to handle. The fingerprint reader is obviously in the wrong place, though. The G6 feels bulkier, but offers a more secure grip thanks to fatter sides and flat screen, and undoubtedly a better placed fingerprint sensor. The XZ Premium isn't keeping up with the edge-to-edge trends this year when even Sony's own XA1 Ultra has gone on a diet and has shed the side bezels for a more modern look.

Display
Winner: Tie between the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. The S8 wins in brightness, contrast and outdoor visibility. The Premium is the sharpest by far, has the most usable screen area and allows streaming in 2160p across various services. The G6 supports Dolby Vision on top of the other two's HDR 10, but that's as much as it's got on the competition.

Battery life
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. The Samsung handset manages the best endurance with the smallest battery and has comprehensive battery saver options. The Xperia is similarly well-equipped in terms of battery saving features, but it's not as long lasting. The G6 is just average in both areas.

Connectivity
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. The G6 takes a hit for its older chipset that lacks Gigabit LTE and Bluetooth 5.0, while the S8 and XZ Premium sport the chips of the day and are mostly tied. Until the S8 pulls out its DeX trump card - of course, a handful of people will get one, but the option is there for those that want to.

Software
Winner: Tie between the Sony Xperia XZ Premium and the Samsung Galaxy S8. The XZ Premium will appeal to purists, while the S8 is the most feature-packed. The G6 offers little on top of stock Android, but is thoroughly redesigned nonetheless.

Loudspeaker
Winner: Tough one. We'd call it a tie as none really excels. The Xperia has stereo speakers going for it, but they're pretty quiet; the G6 is loud, at the expense of distortion at maximum volume; the S8 is the most balanced, but we can't call it a winner, when it doesn't have stereo speakers, and a competitor does.

Audio quality
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. The loudest output with the least degradation in quality when under load comes from the Samsung headset.

Performance
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. A predictable showing from the three phones in the benchmarks - the Galaxy S8 in Exynos trim is the usual chart-topper, followed closely by the Snapdragon 835-powered S8 and the Xperia XZ Premium. The LG G6 does the best with what it's got, but the last gen chip can't compete in the numbers game. That said, you'd be hard-pressed to find a substantial difference in the behavior of the devices in actual use.

Camera
Winner: Tie. The S8 has remarkable noise reduction that cancels out noise without affecting edge detail. It's also got the dual pixel autofocus, which is unmatched for speed and accuracy. The Xperia can capture an abundance of detail, has the widest dynamic range (even if by a small margin) and you can rely on Superior Auto to pick the right scene mode for you. The G6 deserves praise for what it achieves with the smallest sensor here - fine detail, well-controlled noise, good dynamic range. Not to mention that it's got two of them rear cams and the wide-angle one is massive fun to shoot with.

Camera HDR
Winner: Tie. All are decent, but far from remarkable. The S8 has a live preview, which is nice, the Xperia will handle HDR for you in Superior Auto, while the LG is a bit awkward in changing modes, but all of these are too minor to make a difference.

Camera low light with tripod

Winner: Sony Xperia XZ Premium. When properly supported on a tripod and in Manual mode (it's basically shutter priority, but still), the Xperia is capable of producing excellent low-light shots with total detail levels unmatched by the other two. The G6 may resolve a tiny bit more on a per-pixel level when shot from the same spot, but walk a few steps to frame the same composition on the Xperia, and the G6's longer lens advantage disappears. The Galaxy S8 can't compete for detail, but it's also got the lowest noise. Just make sure you don't go slower than 1/4s because the heavier noise reduction eradicates all intricate detail.

Camera panorama
Winner: Tie between the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the LG G6. The S8 is the sharpest but has that pesky exposure stitching ruining its shots, while the G6 has stitching issues on a local level. The Xperia doesn't stitch flawlessly either and is got the softest image.

Camera selfie
Winner: Samsung Galaxy S8. You may need to learn its autofocusing quirks, but once you do, the S8 will reward you with the most pleasing images of the three.

Video
Winner: Tie. It's nearly impossible to pick one of the three - they're that good. The Xperia scores major points for its slo-mo video, but some will argue it's of limited use. Good thing then, that the Sony smartphone also excels in 4K and has a stabilization that works. The Galaxy S8 captures very good 4K itself, but reigns supreme in 1080p, where its stabilization also functions better than in 4K. The G6 has perhaps the most detailed 4K video, and with a wide-angle cam on top of the regular one it's a boon for action shooters.

Video low light
Winner: Tie. To each their own. The G6 is a bit dark, but it's probably the most expressive here. The S8's footage is pleasantly punchy out of the box, while the more laid-back Xperia could use a boost of contrast, but some will appreciate its natural look.

I can't believe the huge deal people make with bezels nowadays - I can't brain it.
I think if Sony is pushed any further, they might go crazy and just rage release a totally bezel-less phone, just to shutup the anti-bezel camp - and other brand-fans will still come in and make noise about it.

Anyhow, love this XZP - I miss the forest blue of XZ - but there is a chrome bluish tone in the deepsea black when under sunlight or bright indoor lighting.

The youtube 4k is jaw dropping - in terms of the colors..

Buying a phone based on looks alone. Sad that both small fry htc and Sony can get their phones to run faster than the giant. Problem is, with such a thick overlay, things will only run even slower a few months down the road.

Why do Sony's phone bezels get bigger and bigger each year? It will be nice if they put in an infinity screen as all the rest of the specs are good.

I do like bigger bezel, easy to hold n squeeze.

Just bought it today, the touch screen very smooth than my s8 with both applied temper glass sp.

The SD835 / 540 Adreno chipset way faster than s8.

Using Celcom network always at 4g+ Ampang, Pandan Mewah, Pandan Indah, Pandan Jaya, Pandan Perdana n Cheras area.

Will update more later.

Using Sony Ericsson phone since K700, K750, K770i, K850i, W800i, W850i, W880i, W890i, W910i, W990i n Satio model is the last i used.

After that HTC, Samsung, LG, 🍎, n back to Sony.

Sony this year came out new flagship xz premium model really hard work n successful.

Congratulations n bravo Sony.

Trust me coz im crazy gadgets just like uncle Benny maybe more than him.

Thanks n cheers.

GSM Arena reviews have to be taken with a cargo ship load of salt. On almost anything subjective, they will praise Samsung till the ends of the world.

I fail to understand how can they claim the S8 reign supreme in 1080p when all video comparison shows way more shakes on the S8's video compared to the silky smooth videos recorded on the XZs/XZ Premium.

And don't let the 5.5" vs 5.8" fool you. It might seem like a "big" difference but it's only a 5% increase in screen real estate because of the longer 2:1 ratio as compared to the wider 16:9 ratio.

Most important you are happy with it, I also owned some a Sony devices before, Z Ultra, Z5 and Z3 Compact tablet. Sonys are good performers and quite lean skin. I only don't feel for the outdated design which they should evolve and strive to improve.

Well, u can give some opinions or suggestions to them, but mostly branded have their policy.

Like Apple sue Samsung for copy cat but now 🍎 purchase products from Samsung too.

1) Samsung S8 series no bezels

2) LG. G6 slim bezels with 16:9 ratio

3) Sony xz premium thick bezels, easy to hold, squeeze n best performance phone awards of the year 2017.

Really much smoother than the S8?

I've seen tons of reviews saying it trumps the S8.

And to think that the S8 is still new and should perform at it's best. Give the S8 a couple months down the road the software lags like my grandmother. T_T

What ever people said or based on reviews some was true only.

Anything must try n test by ourselves then will know the results on it.

Never try never know on new gadgets.
