            It makes me LOL when for ex someone compares that one speaker on the side phones to front facing stereo speaker phones like Sonys, saying they dont matter, are not as loud, and alike...
            Or that LDAC doesnt matter, and crap like that.
            Its hilarious.

              Tann Hauser, 02 Apr 2017The sound on X Performance is uttery magnificent.... loud, ... moreAn audiophile company cannot be rivalled easily in audio. Juan Bagnell of PocketNow is just bs, valuing loudness over quality. He said the XZ has poor headphone performance when it's actually considered as an audiophile person's dream phone in a tech site here in my country. Even Damir Franc in YouTube, after updating his X Compact to Nougat, was highly impressed by how loud the internal audio went from Marshmallow to Nougat, and he said the same thing for the XZ. Meanwhile, I never saw any Samsung phone impress him in audio as much as Sony phones did to him

                Anonymous, 02 Apr 2017Comment war continues in any Sony page. Comment as much as ... moreWell, pretty much yes. Sony fans aren't just Sony fans. We value the quality of a phone, which is why we love them. Those pathetic Samsung fanboys are raging against us because they can't accept that they have used a superior phone when they used a Sony phone

                  Meaning having it with any headphones.
                  Im not aware others have that, only with dedicated headphones, but I may be mistaken.

                    And my old z1c smashed those in sound quality, tho not in max volume.

                    And my new X Performance...
                    well... on a whole new higher level than z1c.

                    So... no, Sammy doesnt come close in quality, be it external or headphones
                    In max volume yes, but quality nope.

                    And X Performance is like really loud, dont know why really people want anything louder from a phone.

Headphone sound is unbelivably excellent also, dsee hx makes even the simplest inear headphones a wonder for audio consumation.
                        Excellent.
                        Doubt there is any better sound system all together out there, as HTC doesnt have front facing speakers any more, so stereo on it is uneven and not good no matter the speaker and sound quality.

                          Comment war continues in any Sony page. Comment as much as you want. But comments makes no sense. Any Sony fan or user will buy Sony again and not Samsung that will lag after few months.

                            G5 - "The sound was rich and silky smooth, and the details in the subtle nuances of vocals rang clear and full. Snare drum sounded forward and clean, but also textured with a thick punch, and there was some ruddy warmth in the bass. Overall, the experience felt more like what you expect from stalwart pro audio designers, and we think it’s a sound to likely appeal to longtime audio fanatics and casual listeners alike."

                            X Performance - "The time spent with the Xperia X Performance characterized that sound even further, bursting like sunlight off the hood of a shiny-new Corvette. We’re generally a fan of the subtler, warmer sound we heard from the G5, but those who hold sharp clarity in the highest regard may edge towards the Xperia X experience."

                            S7 Edge - "The sound impressions here are, at best, incomplete. We can say that, if the S7 does have any fancy amplification or DAC components inside, it wasn’t readily apparent in our first impression. Sound was pretty vanilla with no real standout moments, like you’d expect from any standard handset (including the iPhone)."

                            But you don't care about Sony fanboys telling you the truth because you're in denial, so there's no point talking to you at all. You can believe what you want to believe though, but you must wake up to the fact that Sony is clearly better than Samsung in audio, because I myself have tried it on the S5 and Z3, and I just can't spot anything in audio where Samsung touches Sony. Peace :3

                              Right, so the advanced majority are child-minded because TouchWiz and GraceUX replicates who they are. Admit it my dear brother, Samsung's OS department leader is a child. Sony knows how to make a stable OS, which is why Google is asking them to co-develop Android O for audio enhancements just to let Samsung catch up a bit on them
