Sony might unveil a 4K, SD835 flagship at MWC, along with four other phones

26 January 2017
The source is quite shady, but if it holds air, the new Xperia lineup will probably steal the show.

    [deleted post]Who cares? Doesn't mean it's worse than Samsung that explodes. You're like saying that a Toyota car is far better than a Lamborghini race car just because more people buy it than Lamborghini race car. Tell me what phone was the mot selling in Q4 2016. Just because you bought a crap phone compared to Sony, doesn't mean you have to troll lol

      Alien , 27 Jan 2017The Z5 Premium which has a 4K display is using full resolut... moreI think it'll make more sense to have 4K resolution all the time, but just give the users the access to change the resolution even up to 720p just like Samsung can. Preferably, 4K would be significant on large screen estate, while 1080p is more than enough on 5-5.2" screen. QHD is just ideal for tablets, but for the sake of hype, Sony decided to go to 4K to catch up in terms of marketing. If the phone will have 3,500+ mAh battery if not necessarily 4,000, this will be an excellent performer, given Sony's great optimization on battery. I really can't wait for Sony to put CLEDIS technology on their smartphones, which will destroy both the worlds of AMOLED and LCD as it gets the advantages of the two, then remove their major drawbacks at the same time. Might be possible next year, but I have high hopes that Sony would switch to OLED this year if not this early (IFA)

        migotka21, 26 Jan 2017Their phones are quite slim. How long does any sony battery... moreThe Z5 Premium which has a 4K display is using full resolution (4K) only when watching photos or videos. The rest of the time it's using 1080x1920 resolution. So the battery life will be great if the successor will work the same. Add Qnovo battery technology and this baby will last for years.
        I myself will choose the 5-5.2" version as 5.5" seems too big for me. Let's just hope it runs the same SD835 though.
        There was a guy asking for VR. Sony has one of the best VR systems out there and it works with PlayStation, which is far more advanced than most of the mobile VRs out there.

The X Performance on Nougat, that is far behind the XZ on Nougat in speed, nearly won over the OnePlus 3T on Nougat. Imagine what the XZ will do to the 3T, and perhaps even the iPhone 7 Plus

                      OIS? VR Headset?, 26 Jan 2017Again, Sony would probably skip on the OIS, and not get the... moreSony is always behind? what's the purpose of 6gb to 8gb of ram? PROPAGANDA? a 3gb of ram can even perform better than 4gb-6gb of ram competitors, OPTIMIZATION my friend! 4gb of ram is enough, well if Sony does make a 6gb of Ram then it'll be the best 6gb of ram Android phone

                      as for the VR
                      they don't really need it for the mobile, they have Playstation VR
                      and as a Sony Enthusiast , I don't really need a VR for the Phone, I have PS4 :P

                      OIS? no need, they have 5 axis image stabilization the same as those of the top tier Sony Alpha series line-up , haven't heard an OIS and 5 axis combination from them, since 5axis performs better than OIS in their camera's, what they really need for their Xperia's is to implement it too when taking a shot not only in videos.

                        AnonD-558092, 26 Jan 2017That's why I ask for a compact SD835. Powerful and battery... moreDefinitely agree but it's too early, maybe late 2017 for the Compact version again but this time a flagship compact again, because the X compact is entirely a compact version of the Xperia X (maybe to be cheap?) because the X compact's price is cheaper than the Z5 Compact, Sony is the king when it comes to Compact phones.

                                    Sony is the best when it comes to functions of the phone a decent and sweet menu look up atleast not jumbled up they have just simplified everything and my friends try using one u would find the difference in the flawless performance... Somethings to note a sony devices will lag when u have all ur apps in internal memory, pls don choke ur phones transfer them to sd card to have flawless use

                                      People always know one important thing thats until and unless u don use SONY u wont understand what u exactly hold a phone or plastic compass box like others..theres a reason why they don rush with the big rams and socs...cause they know the quality they use is though enough for other devices...and about camera people their cam is perfect just a lil messing up with features is what we need common we experiment everything in life why not just play around with the cam... If they make cams which aint worth why would they be a supplier for everyone... Think make believe....
