I say facts I faced in real life, I can also state some bad things about my Z2, or my father's S6, or any of the phones I tried.
But why should I bash and object about anything and everything??!!!!!! Why, when I can simply see what the devices offer at their best..

The dummies are burning as Sony is always first in new things: for example, Sony XZ Premium is the 1st phone announced with Snapdragon 835 (Feb 27), and the first to get the Oreo update, then on Aug 31 Sony triples the beast lineup with the XZ1 and XZ1 Compact which are the first two flagships with Android Oreo from day one out of the box.
As for the UI, it's light, fast, close to stock android.
Sony phones are durable, very strong, have excellent batteries and power management, which keeps improving as the time goes by.
The design is very practical, even if bezels could have shrunk a little bit, but this is okay, at least Sony phones have two front facing stereo speakers.
I will take a lot of time to state the great things Sony's phones have, knowing that im one who tried most of this year's flagships (those which were released in my country).

[deleted post]It's a waste of time dealing with them. I have a Z3+ since last year and despite what people have been saying about SD810, it's actually a very good phone (at least for me). Not to mention Sony has managed to fix many of the problems that came since the 1st Nougat update.

AnonD-429807, 24 Oct 2017Looks are subjective, you have your opinion and I have mine... more1. samsung's (And many others companies uis) are better by default. if people dont want it, they can change it with nova like u said.
2. Sony's ui is ugly by default. if people dont want it, they can also change it with nova like u said.
think one more time, for the same amount of price, which one gives you more?

Like I said before, the same thing goes for your Samsung phone. Need to wait for months for a UI change instead of changing them by your own.

[deleted post]I'm actually never offended by Tann's comments. At least he keeps to Sony threads and doesn't barge into other brand's articles unashamedly promoting Sony, as a particular user tends to do. So let's keep the peace.

First of all, in case you have no clue, you need SU or administrator rights to make any changes in the os. Android let's you use the os as a normal user, while ios let's you use it like a guest.
Second, Sony is the most vanilla os out there right after the Google line with no FCs. I've deleted NFC, Bluetooth, dlna, mirrorlink and a whole lot more. Not one FC or bootloop. If it was a samsung, the phone would have been long dead.
My phone has by default 274 apks. I've trimmed it down to 64 and counting.
Go troll somewhere else silly, you've been busted.

That's not the XZ Premium, that's the XA Ultra, an old budget midranger. The XZ Premium comes with almost no bloatware and is one of the lightest implementations of Android. You can do a lot of customizations on Xperias by getting a different launcher, wallpaper, etc.

Because Sony phones have the Most bloatware and most Useless bloatware. Plus, Sony bloatware can't be uninstalled. So soon, everything slows downs and lag starts and stuttering occurs.

users report that Samsungs distortion fix doesnt actually fix anything and distortions are still there,
or redtint fix actually doesnt fix it but only calibrates edges differently so you have uneven rgb colors on same screen.
Im most certain Sony is a more serious big brand than that in adding fixes.
