10 May, 2016
There's a lot that's fishy about the listing though.

AnonD-345273, 23 May 2016Ok, but why not and the S7 active to be with 4K display scr... moreI am not a Sony fan, but it's because it doesn't have to, 4K would just be bad on the battery and performance, besides Z5 Premium has a 4K screen, but almost never uses it, most of the time it is 1080p, which is worse than QHD that S7 already has, and only uses 1/4 of the pixels available, that would look even worse than native 1080p displays.

    AnonD-416078, 10 May 2016The real Boom has to be Note 6, but without the 4K display. Ok, but why not and the S7 active to be with 4K display screen, beacuse you are the sony fans or what?

        AnonD-501550, 11 May 2016But Why? 4K would be Perfect for the Note SeriesBecause it would ruin battery life and performance, while adding nothing to the table, except more pixels, but we already have more than enough pixels.

          AnonD-416078, 10 May 2016The real Boom has to be Note 6, but without the 4K display. 4k not needed yet. I agree. The main problem is the battery technology. If Samsung make 4k display then they can't promise us a full day usage time.

            AnonD-501550, 11 May 2016But Why? 4K would be Perfect for the Note SeriesNot when we're talking about an "Active" model. Screen resolution should be good enough, but not to eat that much battery life is the priority. Want to look at a fancy screen that much? Then you're not supposed to buy or use a rugged smartphone buddy.

A bit silly to expect extra above and beyond the ruggedness, and should maybe look at a different model entirely if this it what you expect.
