    Tourettes Guy, 11 Sep 2016If you can't cheat Physics, then there's no way we can have... moreLOL at you.. The 808 made it and it's not tablet sized.. It seems that you have never seen a picture output by the 808 (8MP/12MP mod).. Go educate yourself and you'll be surprised.. To this day, sadly no phone has beaten the 808 in terms of image quality.. The 808 may have aged in terms of autofocus speed and accuracy but it will remain the king of image quality for at least 2 years to come, considering today's camera advancement pace..

      XZ's shots are incredibly nice. The corner softness seems to be addressed this time which is one of the flaws of the previous xperia lineups. Noise levels are also kept low. This must be a nice smartphone that can offer a serious competition in the imaging department.

                        Cassy O, 11 Sep 2016You cheated, you zoomed in Note7 more than XZ, it's like No... moreno zoom is same it is because the view angle on xperia is less !! another way to compare is croping photos in same areas ofpictures ! i did that in home and xperia was better .

                          Cassy O, 11 Sep 2016You cheated, you zoomed in Note7 more than XZ, it's like No... moreStop your fake trolling.
                          Crops are exactly the same 200%.
                          You got caught cheating/lying.
                          Dont make me report you fanboy.

                            Tann Hauser, 10 Sep 2016Since they stand right in their claims as proven in reality... moreYou cheated, you zoomed in Note7 more than XZ, it's like Note7 120% while XZ 100% but of course you are a Sony fanboy.

                            I'd believe my crop sample than yours

Fanboys must be thankful that Sony is still letting u play the game.

Though we can still make a decent one, but that's not going to be a phone anymore. It will be a tablet already, and you'll expect a 20mm thickness as well. And yes, DxOMark and reality already proved that Lumias are now rivaled and easily outclassed mostly by Xperia phones, especially this XZ. Sorry dude, but it's time to admit that the XZ is now the smartphone camera king of this generation

I said that if you don't believe DxOMark, then you also wouldn't believe that it has one of the best smartphone cameras in thw world. S7 was on the lead along with the X Performance and HTC 10. And that only proves one thing: Sony has the best camera smartphone as well. Besides, X Performance leads the game in terms of colors being the X Performance achieving a score of 91 while the S7 being able to achieve 82 and the HTC 10 having 85 or so. Only thing that pulls down the X Performance is the amount of noise but they still gave it a high score because details are its best. At 100% crop, X Performance will retain the details despite the noise but others will not show noise but pixellate, losing the overall detail of the image
