Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium may get its price on July 5

26 June 2018
That's three days after pre-orders in China are supposed to start. Sony Mobile Japan's website says "late August" for the launch.

Anonymous, 27 Jun 2018Because the Premium is made for media. Content is not 18:9That, and the most important reason is that 4K 18:9 isn't supported by Snapdragon 845. Sony could easily use 4K 18:9 display for this phone but due to SD845's limitation, they can't.

    Even XZ2 beats S9+ and P20 Pro, based on that article alone. Reviewers have bashed Sony's camera for no reason or for a reason that isn't tolerable.

      My Z3 and XZ2 are as good as new. So, I don't know what are you talking about. My XZ2 feels a lot better than Z3, thanks to that curved back glass that feels super amazing to touch.

            Geric.770, 27 Jun 2018Mostly on this section hate Sony. They just don't know how... morenope. sony is already following the trend.
            removal of headphone jack, using fat design like htc, 18:9 ratio.
            sony no longer innovate man.

              people criticize sony's mobile division (which is dying), not its camera/sensor division.
              sony has never got any profit from its mobile division, so.. better to shut it down and focus in camera/sensor development.

                Mostly on this section hate Sony.
                They just don't know how this company innovates their own style rather than follow the market leaders, and I love it.

                      it looks much more like htc u11.

                          No one interest... Unfuture design

                            Anonymous, 26 Jun 2018Who wants this soapbar HTC-clone with its terrible FP placement?Nah. It looks more to classic-design of Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo (V) with Arc (S)'s from 7 years ago rather than HTC phone for me, due the same placement of the camera module, sensors and lens, as well curved back.

                              Stan, 27 Jun 2018Don't kid yourself. The sensor is 1/2.3" which is only a ... moreDear Stan ...

                              Any Sony flagship for example at ISO 1000 will do better than Samsung , LG and Motorola at 1000 too. It is not fair to compare one phone at ISO 300 agaist another at 1000 like all tests show, because Sony chooses high ISO over OIS.
                              So ppl think wrongly the post- processing is to blame.

                              Yes, imx400 and imx380-derivated are 1/2.3" like the sensor of Z3, XZ and Pixel 2016.
                              But the monochrome catches 3x more light than RGB, because there is no filter. It is like having 4 RGB sensors working together.

                              Huawei P9, P10 and P20 have same setup, but software based. XZ2P has hardware to do the task.

                              Check here how the demo xz2p slaughtered S9+ and P20 Pro.

                                I'm excited on Sony's new camera sensors and how it performs!

                                  Content is not 18:9

                                    someone has to pre-order to review it

                                      This strategy seems good I think. Bring enough hype for your product before its release and give away more and more information with time.
                                      But this is the same strategy that makes unpatient people go somewhere else.

                                      The price will be sky high i bet but it's a Sony so, it's worth it.

                                        My Sony XZ is already on June 2018 security update with Android 8.0, my LG V20 is still on April 2017 security update with Android 7.0.
