    Too big, specwise it's an amazing device​but the size too big for my likes

      JordanBaby, 04 Mar 2017If resolution isn't everything, then we must be sure that i... moreThe 960fps could be a gimmick. It was first used in Zuk Z2 Pro. They use interpolation for this camera trick to work. The 960fps spec which was supposed to be HD quality and full frames is nothing more than 120fps 720p interpolated by software up to 960fps. It doesnt even allow real 240fps like other competitive phone options. Not a satisfying result and quality. Phone camera will never reach high speed camera level.

          JordanBaby, 04 Mar 2017Which it has to be ticked in Basic Mode just to be achieved... moreLOL, why all of the Sony fans are stubborn. The Galaxy S8 is still yet to be release. Just like the Note5's display outclass the Z5 Premium's, in every aspect (except the resolution). The Galaxy S8 and S8+ will repeat the history to be the best display on smartphones ;-)

          Google Pay? How much retailer/shop support Google Pay? How much country that support Google Pay huh? Samsung Pay is different compare to any competitor mobile payment, Samsung Pay support the MST tech ( i don't wanna waste my time to explain you)
          Secure folder is different, it isn't just to lock your apps but it makes duplicate apps (you clearly don't know about Samsung Knox)
          Let's see what Bixby can do :-)
          Pop up application is different than split screen multi tasking, Pop up application can open up to 5 apps on the same time, even you can browsing the internet while you playing a game.

          Sooooo stop talking about the things that you don't know okay!

            Based on the leaks so far, I would rather have the Galaxy S8 instead of the Galaxy S8+

              JordanBaby, 04 Mar 2017If resolution isn't everything, then we must be sure that i... moreSamsung AMOLED screens are actually the most accurate on the market. Things change, my man.

              Samsung is a little bit late on the S8, plus Im not sure how the design will look like in reality. I am looking forward, as so far there's nothing better on the horizon and Im looking to replace my now 2 year old phone.

                Orson Krennic, 04 Mar 2017Sorry, S7 edge has better color reproduction than the iPhon... moreWhich it has to be ticked in Basic Mode just to be achieved. iPhone 7 Plus has a decent panel, but not well-calibrated yet still does an adequate job. XZ Premium will easily outclass the S7 Edge & S7, and probably the upcoming S8 &S8+ in terms of screen resolution and quality. HDR makes the screen look true to life, and seeing it from a camera impresses me more. Like I said it covers 138% more colors from sRGB gamut. I have a doubt that DeltaE will be 0 on the phone


                About the features, Sony has a buil-in App Lock, which is basically the same damn thing as Samsung's Secure Folder. Samsung Pay will be useless once Google Pay gets to all Android. Like I said, when Google Assistant is there, why should we need for Bixby? S Voice can't even compare to Siri, so what else will Bixby do? Pop up application is no longer needed as Nougat already brings split screen multitasking, which is the only useful feature from Samsung. And no, people will love 960fps Slow Motion videos more than Samsung's gimmicks

                  JordanBaby, 04 Mar 2017If resolution isn't everything, then we must be sure that i... moreSorry, S7 edge has better color reproduction than the iPhone 7.
                  Average DeltaE
                  S7 edge = 0.8
                  iPhone 7 = 1.7
                  Lower is better.
                  Samsung's S AMOLED is flexible buddy, you can adjust the color profile :-)
                  The Tab S3 covers 97% of DCI-P3

                  And about features, Samsung has many features that usefull, like Secure Folder, Samsung Pay, the upcoming Bixby, Pop up application, people will use those features every time compare to 960fps slow motion video :-P

                    Not likely to get one. The one thing I loved the most is gone. Physical home button, capacitive buttons! The ones I'm looking for now are the A5 2017, the XZ Premium (if not priced over the S8) and the Note 8. The G6's display is the only thing I hate from it.

                      Orson Krennic, 03 Mar 2017If you wanna get the best display, Galaxy S8+ is the right... moreIf resolution isn't everything, then we must be sure that iPhone 7's 750p screen is still better than the upcoming S8 and S&+ because it has better color reproduction. The XZ Premium was calibrated to cover the sRGB range of colors that can give truer to life colors, not oversaturated like on Samsung's AMOLED screens, plus contrast will be excellent on the XZ Premium since it will likely to reach 1,000 nits of maximum brightness, the same level as the Note 7 and these two new S8 and S8+. Regarding features, I'd rather have Google Assistant instead of having another inferior and useless assistant on my phone, plus Qnovo Adaptive Charging, Motion Eye predictive capture, Smart Battery Care, 960fps Slow Motion video, 4K HDR display rendering, and amazing audio functions are far more important than Samsung's gimmicks

                              XZ Premium haha lol lol, Are you tripping? Sony phones are just dull and uninspiring. Why get a 4k screen which doesn't support VR? Also the Z5 Premium is renowned for overheating so enjoy the expensive hand warmer!

                              Also Sony phones lack beautiful aesthetic looks which in this day and age DO matter! My Z5 was worth a third I paid for it after 4 months.

                              Samsung I'm afraid are beguining to overprice for stuff that not worth it, Sd835 and 4gig of ram for a $1000.

                                S8 of course ,anything above 75mm width is just too big to work with one hand.
                                Sony and LG were also wise enough to respect that, but Sony dropped the ball on bezels and LG on non 64GB version in most Western countries. Chances are that the 3000mah in S8 Sony Vegas sufficient, but it's the lesser evil...

                                      JohnyJR, 03 Mar 2017The samsung galaxy s8+ or the sony xperia xz prmium.If you wanna get the best display, Galaxy S8+ is the right answer :-), resolution isn't everything, with Samsung you got the best of the best display, better color reproduction, better contrast, better sunlight legibility, etc.
                                      And the Galaxy S8 has more features than Xperia ;-)

                                        For LG is it their G-series or their V-series that are their flagships?
                                        ... because I could've sworn the V-series has better specs on them...
