Sony Xperia XZ hits US, Netherlands and Germany

05 October 2016
Major retailers and carriers in the Netherlands have it in stock, and so does Best Buy in the US.

AnonD-442781, 05 Oct 2016Except it's more expensive and it has a worse camera, worse... more1. Megapixels aren't everything, but it doesn't mean that lower megapixel means better. Xperia XZ cannot be defeated with its 23mp resolution which resolves incredible quality images without pixelation even on massive cropping. Hence after DxOMark tests the XZ, they will give it 90 and above.

2. If you're not retarded enough, you know AMOLEDs are always known for oversaturated colors, and new Pixel phones are no exception. No one even compares to the accuracy of the screen of Sony. X-Reality is just a magical setting to beat.

3. Before you say that it has worse software, let me tell you that a survey was conducted and confirms that Sony's Xperia Home is the most freaking stable UI in Android platform, beating Motorola's stock android experience, and hey, Nexus phones aren't even close, and Pixel phones aren't either. GSMArena reported it here and you can check it if you want to know if I'm joking

4. SD821 isn't a big reason to have the XL be $300 more expensive than the XZ. 4GB of RAM? Sony has always never needed more than 3GB of RAM. In 2020, android phones will come to the point of having 32GB of RAM and still fails to multitask properly while Sony is still left at 3 with flawless and even perfect multitasking. QHD screen? Oh Gosh, thanks toGoogle for putting more overkill specs on their ruined flagship. 3,450mAh battery? Who needs that when your phone isn't that optimized enough to make full use of it?


5. Nope, Sony's prices are never an issue. For $700, a slight downgrade of specs makes a lot of sense. Bezel-wise, you should've know first that phones aren't TVs to have slim bezels. And for a phone, anything above 70% is considered great. Xperia XZ haz 71% while XL has 68%. So no, they're not issue with Sony

    Cassy O, 05 Oct 2016"in terms of Screen Quality nothing can beat sony." Haha... moreToo bad it isn't a joke. It is true. Want some proof? See them in reality. Without your bias on Samsung, you will be blown away by the XZ's screen

      Anonymous, 05 Oct 2016Lol......'Gets high quality headphones......plugs it into h... moreLow quality? I don't even think any phone comes close to the headphone quality of the XZ once its Hi-Res audio is activated. Only Sony products can make another Sony products incredible. And by means of colour blind, I think you're referring to yourself who loves AMOLED and considers Red as Orange.

        AnonD-442781, 05 Oct 2016Except it's more expensive and it has a worse camera, worse... moreWorse camera? Pixel ain't out yet, not even tested properly. I find it funny how you just simple assumed that Pixel has a better camera.
        Worse display? Nah, Pixel is probably using the same 5 inch 1080p AMOLED panel like the HTC one A9. Heck, even the design of the Pixel is recycled from that. And we all know HTC used an IPS LCD panel in their top flagship, the HTC 10. The LCD panel in the HTC 10 was better than the AMOLED panel in One A9. Again you just assume thay Pixel is better in this regard, without even testing them both.
        Worse "hardware". What exactly do you mean by worse hardware?
        At least the XZ isn't a pathetic iPhone ripoff like the Pixel, and is water proof, oh, and the XZ has smaller bezels, yet it packs stereo speakers.
        Do you have something against Sony? Almost on every XZ related article I see you bashing Sony.

                  mir, 05 Oct 2016Still a better deal than those Pixel phones. Except it's more expensive and it has a worse camera, worse display, worse software, worse hardware. The only things the Pixel has wrong is price and bezels, which are both problems with Sony too.

                    AnonD-216319, 05 Oct 2016Well check gsm review , the numbers see there for you , wit... moreYou know why it charges slower? Because it preserves the health of the battery to make it twice longer than a standard phone battery. It charges slower because it lessens the power rate of charging so that the phone will only get fully charged on the time you usually unplug your phone to the charger. Disabling Battery Care and using Quick Charge 3.0 can easily charge the XZ in 1 and a half hour. But who cares about slower charging? At least I'm confident enough that this phone will not blow up easily. And the battery life of the XZ is great, not as bad as GSMArena tries to make it. Besides, you should be wondering why iPhone 7 with 1,900mAh battery chargers longer than the XZ with 1,000mAh more :D
