Though nothing about zoom, bokeh and super low light performance did level up. Colors will pop out.

    All 1080p.

    The devs have to give support to the app, so it can run beyond 1080p.

      It's funny to watch how Sony haters are immediately right at it, trying to convince me that it's a bad phone.
      Don't be jealous, guys, maybe one day your favorite manufacturer too will come up with a phone as fast, as smooth, as good looking ... as a Sony Xperia.

        LTE-Advance (6CA) Cat18 1200/200 Mbps means up to 6 carriers' combined signals can be aggregated together. This should mean 4x4 MIMO antenna and stellar WiFi and LTE performance. And unlike Samsung S9+, this Sony is a REAL phablet size with that good old 16:9 aspects ratio. Well done Sony.

          Anonymous, 16 Apr 2018Just do more research before embarrassing yourself. Right ... moreBefore anything else learn to stay on the topic. First you questioned the authenticity of 4K display and got a reply from "Alien" to the point with facts. Now to cover the embarrassment you’re saying, Android is buggy and unresponsive. This isn’t a discussion on Android and its stability kid. This is about XZ2 Premium and it’s features.
          As you say if Android is that bad, why do you waste your time reading articles on android phones.

            I guess this is the Sony Phone everyone has been waiting for. Good battery, Dual camera, QI wireless, New design, Great speakers. But most important, that screen. You can enjoy watching great content on it, especially if you are a photografer you can bring you work with you on a sd card. I guess the phone will be super expensive.

              Why is the camera lens right in the middle, it should be top left corner horizontal

                    Absolutely true advertisment, as all 4k native media runs in 4k on Sony Premium phone.
                    Scren is adaptive, and runs UI and all other fhd content in FHD resolution, to not compromise user experience.

                    One of the reasons all other 2k screens come with fhd resolution preset out of the box now. But them cant play 4k media

                      Of course googles apps dont support it, as googles phones dont utilize 4k screens.

But people are all specy mad, so if they want 4k on mobile they got it. But kindaa agree on 4k, definitely a sweetspot for mobile VR use.
                        2K is just, neither there nor here...

                          Meanwhile Xperia advertises 4K but you can only see 1080p in everything aside from specific Sony apps. Not even google photos make Xperia uses 4k screen.

                            Right back at you.
                            I did research and doing that makes your dialing app crash. You cant use your phone as phone lol.
                            Also Android becomes buggy and unresponsive. Nice try.
                            There isn’t any efficiency problems. The gpu can run android interface at 4k just fine and the battery consumption is almost the same.
                            4K here is false advertisement and people buying for 4K are falling into a trap.

These are very small screens in comparison to TV's or even laptops so 1440p would offer easy enough pixels but it also depends on if there's much cost difference between implementing those.

                                  Sonys media video app supports 4k 264/265 content, and any media file played by Xperias native app will run in native 4k just fine.

                                    When they add 4K support for the whole Android ecosystem, then it will be a 4K screen. Until that its just a gimmick, false advertisement.

You have to pay for subscription services. If you want to watch your ripped blurays videos, it wont reproduce at 4K. You will have to pay Netflix for that. If you have a 4K mkv video file and want to watch on your xperia, you cant, you can only see it in a 4K tv or 4K monitor.
