                  Not another flagship I mean the xz1 isn't even a year old. As much as I love Sony for being ahead of others and actually innovate things, i don't like them for this 6 month upgrade circle.

It is strange that the ipad is escape from the old battery policy.

                        Watching people in the comments are fighting lol. So childish.

                          nakakapagpabagabag, 18 Jan 2018months or weeks before Sony releases the phone and sony fa... moreWell , Sony possibly doesn't changed a lot on hardware . Because they're doing it phase-by-phase slightly new hardware which need time until it's perfect rather than instant new huge hardware , however a big mess at the end (some companies did that) . But they're the few companies that successfully keeping a necessary hardware without removing one of them . Such as : keeping a 3.5 mm headphone jack , while keeping IP68/65 water and dust resistant certificate and having a stereo speakers (doing that since Xperia Z2) . Others ? well , until S9/S9+ came out , no other OEM near what Sony has done

                          Here's some table :
                          Sony : features all
                          Samsung : lacks Stereo Speakers in flagships (S9 will changed the status same as Sony)
                          LG : same as Samsung
                          Apple : lacks 3.5mm jack while gaining IP67
                          HTC : same as Apple
                          Huawei : lacks of 3.5mm jack (Mate 10 Pro) or IP6x (Mate 10 , P10/Plus)
                          OnePlus : lacks both stereo speakers and IP6x
                          Motorola (since Moto Z) : lacks all
                          etc.

                          Well , i'm maybe biased . But i already researched those before in this website for those OEM and it's true .
