Tann Hauser, 03 Mar 2017The sentiment of my comment is...design dont matter to actu... moreHey Tann, I love Sony as much as you do, but the comfortability really matters too. Like if the XZ Premium has really top notch performance and best hardware but big bezels that'll surely destroy the comfortability in two or one handed use, it'll be really a waste. The speakers are not even that big to justify it. I really love what they did with the z3 Compact. When I first saw it, it was really, really beautiful because of how small its bezels are and how comfortable it sits on the hand. I wish Sony make happen again. My comment doesn't only revolve on small compact devices, but also to phablets like the XZ Premium. I really love what they did with the hardware but aesthetic wise+comfortability, I dont think its that great. Bezels are really useful but with how big Sony phones got, it isnt normal anymore.

    Aspros, 03 Mar 2017Are you one of those ppl that are walking down the street a... moreI like those front facing speakers for gaming an sometimes for music(not on the street or buss ) and I like that they didn't make the phone to look like the rest of the phones. Samsung and Lg will look almost the same now. I have the xeria xz and those bezels look big in the videos or pictures ; in reality are very nice not to big. In my opinion xperias very elegant and unique looking ; very manly. English is not my first language.Sorry.

      It totally deserves it

                      AnonD-643350, 03 Mar 2017Talking about bezels, it's no bigger than iphone bezels,and... moreApple iPhone 7 Plus:
                      5.5 inches (~67.7% screen-to-body ratio)

                      Sony Xperia XZ Premium:
                      5.46 inches (~68.4% screen-to-body ratio)

                      According to: "XZ has dual speakers" talking about bezels is nonsensical!

                        Suppose you are watching a utube video how the curved sides on galaxy is usable here?so it's a bezel itself but a glass bezel

                          Talking about bezels, it's no bigger than iphone bezels,and even Galaxy S7 edge,you have to be wise enough to understand that you mustn't be easily cheated by curved screen as the curved parts are not usable and it's a bezel itself hidden under a glassy part

                            Sony used a mirror bezel instead of a selfie cam and the bottom one thats a deck for playing your betamax video cassettes!

                                Huge bezels, ugly design, etc. etc... Stop it now. This is brilliant phone.
