      Someone Else, 01 May 2017LOL. What type of fan-boy are you? That IS my honest commen... moreSony fans are like that. I just don't get it. Just look at the previous iPhone 7+ and the XZP camera comparison. Almost everyone​ that commented that they prefer the iPhone 7+'s camera had been mocked by Sony fans. Sony fans basically says that whoever love the iPhone's camera are blind , fake, a fan boy, and stupid while everyone who love the XZP camera are wise, have good taste, and not a Sony fan boy at all. smh

        These r daylight shots and all the new flagships are champions when it comes to daylight shots.
        But if the camera is exactly the same as xzs then its a big failure for sony coz gsmarena's review says that the image quality is consistent with what we got with older xperia xz.
        Sony should stop with the very high resolution sensors with bad low light capabilities.
        This isnt 2011 anymore......

          AnonD-237389, 01 May 2017Please look at photos closely then write your honest commen... moreLOL. What type of fan-boy are you? That IS my honest comment. Why can't you accept that many people actually prefer the iPhone 7 Plus's camera compare to your XZ Premium's?

          For my eyes, the iPhone 7 Plus's camera looks more detailed and less grainy. Overall, the iPhone's camera looks better than Sony's to me. And no, I'm not a 'blind' Apple fan. I'm more of a Samsung and Xiaomi fan.

          Smartphone cameras are getting so good these days that the only thing that would make them the 'best' is a person's own preferences

            And when will they reduce the bezel for their flagship? Or for their mid-range phone is ok.

                XtremE16, 01 May 2017Much better than iPhone 7 plus...more details n colors... W... moreActually the iphone has more detail than the Sony ZXS (same camera).

                In the low light tests it is S8 > Iphone 7 > Sons ZXS

                  After i saw the result " :
                  I think When the picture takes in the close distance it might the Iphone 7 plus got a better pics than Sony X premium camera's, but in some feautures Xpremium it was also nice such as :
                  - good pics at long and wide side's
                  -much better pixel we've got on the camera
                  -so good result in low light at night.
                  That's my opinion, and you guy's.. ?

                    I like both

                                    I'm really amazed by xz premium shots, photos are much better than my z5 premium, much much less noise and much better corner to corner sharpness, i think it's better than iPhone 7 plus in terms of colors and overall sharpness and details, great job Sony
