AnonD-731363, 31 Jan 2018Nope i am not judging people i just presenting my opinion. ... moreYour "Personal Opinion" is super flawed, its based on the experience of one person, that happens to be your "friend" and also happens to have a large frame/body size, the phone itself is designed for the countries main market "ASIA" cause the company is based on "JAPAN" majority of the Asian population have smaller builds than the standard Africans/Europeans/Americans(You're probably basing the size difference from these), now... I have standard height for an Asian, with probably little to average looks, and I am thoroughly offended by your biased "opinion" I'm using a 5.5 screen phone and would struggle on using it without the attachable ring support, so by your "opinion" I don't even count as a "REAL Man" now?
Piss off bruh...

This is mostlikely the only time I wont be getting a Sony Flagship if they adopt this ugly 18:9 gimmick.

Only wrong it appears to do is ergonomics of design i e not so rounded edges which are pain in the palm with the square ones like it shows. If d trend cathes up, may be we can have other players falling in fray too.

Oh my God! Exactly a wish granted in my case as far as size of the purported pics conveys! What a boon it would be if it packed features required or aspired by most of us, like great cpu, camera, battery networks and many more such necessities! Will pray dis to mature fast into reality! An 18:9 screen in small sizes upto 5, 5.30 inch is great market to capture lying untapped.

So, doing the math, the "XZ2 Compact" would be trimming the bezels by about 3.5mm compared to the XZ1C.

User, 31 Jan 2018That was my dream, dude! I hope they put a sd630 in it, not... moreYou would prefer a slower/older chip over a faster/newer chip? That's crazy. Unless if you're looking for a budget phone which I doubt this will be.

AnonD-725563, 31 Jan 2018I don't know why journalists and people relate 18:9 screens... moreYes you right, even sammy A8 with 18,5:9 screen has more bezel than XA2 ultra (measured from screen to body ratio). And still they said A8 is bezelles and XA2U not.

I seriously hope they're not falling into the useless marketing gimmick of 2:1 aspect ratios. Nothing is shown in a 2:1 aspect ratio.

Isn't that a textbook definition of a judgment/conclusion?

- A 5" phone is not a compact phone
- being 1cm bigger than the xz compact just means same big old bezels but with a taller screen
- this could very well be the next X2 if it's launching this February because, again, a 5" phone is not a compact phone
- there's nothing wrong with a 16:9 screen with small bezels in 2018 and I wish Sony realize this.

Excellent news. Now all Sony need do is put that fingerprint sensor back on the power button instead of shoving it round back, and bring back the magnifying glass for editing text and cursor control.
