Not everyone needs phones with bulky size of battery. 3130 mAh is enough to delivers daily usage. Get Xiaomi Mi Max 2 instead if you need monstrous battery.
Besides, Sony is well known with it's battery care so it will last longer year by year.

    Only fan-boys and light users could say a battery of that size can be enough.

    See the youtube link i gave below. There are thousdands of similar examples. Bottom line: Small battery is NEVER enough for serious usage. If you're just staring at the screen or use it on wifi at best...maybe (But will still be much worse than decent-sized batteries).

        So much for great "optimization".
        You can't optimize a 60hp car to be fast. You can only optimize it to be fairly bearable at best. Same with small batteries.

          I hoped more about the score of the Geekbench in relation to Snapdragon 845, after all is slightly better or practically the same as the Core i7 920 in default speed. Well this is a prototype of the future Sony phone, we will see after the final product be realized if the score is better. In a bechmark was told that the Snapdragon 845 in single core reached between 2600, 2700 pts.

                  And that is actually a good option for sony mobile.
                  y know.. they dont have enough money to innovate. Big chinese like huawei, lenovo, or even xiaomi can help them. LOL

                          Let me answer the questions and doubts.

                          1 - Yes, Sony is finally adding OIS to their main camera. It ain't just a typical OIS, it's a significantly more advanced type of OIS that can compensate for shakes much much better (maybe no more wobbling while recording a video). Dubbed as DVS (Dynamic Vibration System), we should see its debut at least on the next Xperia flagship (that is of course, coming at this MWC 2018).

                          Translate it to English
                          https://nl.letsgodigital.org/smartphones/sony-smartphone-camera/amp/

                          2 - Sony might get rid of dual front facing stereo speakers (in order to make a true bezel less device) but they may implement their "Acoustic Surface" technology from their Bravia A1 OLED TV to their Xperias. What it means is that it vibrates the glass to produce sound (not sure how exactly will it work, but the concept is something similar to it).

                          3 - Do not worry about battery life and its size. XZ1 with 2700mAh battery gets some good 82h rating. It only proves why specs aren't everything. A well-optimized 2000mAh battery can beat an unoptimized 5000mAh battery.

                            [deleted post]Sony needs to keep pumping money made from console sales and the movie sales in mobile division. Of course they'll survive. HTC will simply go back to OEM days so yeah it won't fall soon, same for LG. LG actually has a home appliances division and afaik contract to make iPhone display
                            So you're wrong. All three will survive. Question is what will be sustainable
