More people complaining about specs of Xperia X without actually checking its performance ?
This illiteracy about smartphone's functioning really is disappointing.

In online stores the prices are fair. You mentioned xperia x? That's indeed overpriced it doesn't count. Even Z5 which is considerably better costs less than that.

You're funny, the inflation may be high, but this don't justify SONY putting sky high prices on devices that they build locally, if my country is wrong, how come SAMSUNG flagship phones are cheaper than the SONY midrange ones? It's 100% SONY's fault.

I won't get into low quality arguments with fanboys, Ima just state my opinion down your throats, you better be good at taking it.
Ok Sony isn't doing well in mobiles, that's plain to see. But finally they make some profit out of it. Keep in mind that unlike the other companies Sony has a lot of cards in their hands, it's just that they don't play rough and choose a safer approach to our mobile game.
See the xperia x performance. Thought that it was a flagship? Umm good guess but no. It lacks 4k video recording and it's durability is questionable. Why would Sony kept 4k video recording out of their super duper camera phone?
Anyway it's a good thing that they are finally making a few bucks out of their smartphones. It was about time too.
I wonder where's that samsung guy who used to get a lot of upvotes. He said Sony would be out of the smartphone map by mid 2016. It would be funny to read again "mark my words, sony is dying" etc. What a funny little fella.

Sony phone used to have good design, but now, it's just pricey phone with good-looking back cover but boring front design. Their aftersales service also not good.
There's lot of LG, Samsung, and Nokia service centers nearby and they never disappoint me. Sony oth only had 1 service center on my city, they're expensive on service, and take too long to service/repair.
Most my relatives already ditches Sony and go with either Samsung or Apple.

Why is Nokia being blamed for Microsoft's trouble when MS itself is to blame for being so indifferent, concerning the development of WP? They are the ones who ruined it for WP and Nokia. Just look at where they're focusing the development of their core apps. On iOS and Android! No wonder WP was so left out.
