wah , getting new phone ady ? i rmb that u are htc fans , right ?  biggrin.gif ? How's sony ?

I am not htc fan...I am simply a smartphone enthusiast and I buy and test many smartphones. The HTC U11 is a great phone but will never be my daily phone simply due to it's small display. This XZ premium I buy just to test and will sell out later. My favorite smartphones till now are the S8+ and Mi Mix. My last Sony was XZ5 premium but I was disappointed with it and sold after less than 2 weeks

HTC u11 still small? It's a 5.5 inches phone, right?
*
Yes and still too small for me. I always prefer a 6 inch display as far as possible
I treat loss of $ in selling off as my hobby expenses. Normal loss is around rm500-600 each time for a phone up to 3 months

Haha, if the phone is 3  months old, and you only lose rm500, I think it's reasonable. What's ur current phone now? I am curious. How's ur xz premium so far?
*
S8+ n Mi Mix, ip7+ . Haven't received the XZ yet as just ordered yesterday.

when you guys buy phone from qoo10 or lazada for 2.6k or 2.9k, dont you get taxed?  either sales tax or the GST?  That will make the price of the phone almost same as buying from retail outlet.
*
Stated prices are inclusive of GST. There is no sales tax on mobile phones

Camera distortion issue until now no fix. It's a big discussion on most European forum.

What more disappointing is sony acknowledged this issue as normal. Wth..

How about you guys? Can accept the level of distortion?
*
I didn't notice any distortion
Can you post shots to show such a problem?

The normal stamina mode was dissapointing. I had not make any adjustment to refresh rate on all my apps and switched on just to test it. Unbelievable with wifi, Bluetooth n GPS off drain was a massive 9% overnight over 8 hours.
I remember my ex XZ Ultra it was only less than 2%.
Will test again tonight.
Had the phone 2 days already and quite happy with it. Only things I do not quite like - small display of 5.5 inch and inability to switch the navigation buttons ( always prefer back key on the right). Anyway I bought this just to test out based on numerous favorable reviews on the net. Will probably sell off once I get bore with it.
Will post more comments later on .

XZ premium vs htc u11
I had used both and I would say my preference is on the XZP. I had sold my U11 3 days ago.

The soft speakers improved our listening prowess. tongue.gif

Speakers are indeed soft. My other S8+ sounds much louder than it. Quality wise not much difference between them. I find reviews over rate the speakers on this phone
However the supplied earset is way way much better than those on the S8+

same here, only issue is abit thicker n bigger ..... still can't decide ..

btw how the battery life ??? good ?

I deemed it as quite good. For me on mainly internet stuffs without gaming SOT 6 to 7 hours. The top n bottom bezels might distract potential buyers but I am fine with it. Phone feels better on hand vs say HTC U11.

Anyone here still using flip case for xzp? Just curious. Does flip case offer better protection than those armor case? Since flip case covered all parts of the phone, including the front part of the phone..
*
I always use flipcase for all my phones. I much prefer it over the back cases. This is also the reason why I had never like having any SP on my phones. I usually buy these from eBay in range of rm40-60.
It usually depend on angle of fall and type of surface your phone will hit. So any strong case is not a guarantee of protection.

How long does the item take to ship if buy from eBay? For Sony's case, there's only limited options on local shopping website. Haiz.
I have been using flip case for my phone in the last 4 yrs. Dropped it a few times, not a single scratch / dent on the phone. I have to say that I am quite a careful user. Haha. I bought the case from Pasar Malam last time. Buy, for xzp / xzs, it's quite hard to get it from Pasar Malam nowadays

Usually 2 to 3 weeks

Did you find that the flipcase doesnt fit the phone well ? I have just received a flipcase bought from taobao ytd . I found that it doesnt fit the phone well as i am using the cheap 3d full coverage screen protector for my phone . When i put the phone inside the casing , i heard the krak krak sound . This is caused by the screen protector itself  because the raised lip is not thick enough . Any good flipcase brand suggestion ?
*
I am fine with my flipcase. I don't use and don't believe in SP. I don't bother much about their quality as us cheap stuff. As long it fits well and doesn't cover-up those exposed parts is good enough for me
