If this Geekbench turns out to be true tomorrow at IFA event , it'll be Sony's 2nd time on grabbing the title "the first and the latest Android OS out of the box in Android Ecosystem" , after last year Xperia XZ1 series shipped with Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box at IFA as well , beating out Google own Pixel 3 series by XZ3/2s (Android Pie) and Pixel 2 series by XZ1 (Android Oreo) twice , which something that unheard for sometimes by OEM . IDK which last OEM to grab the latest Android before Google outside of LG V20 with its Android 7.0 Nougat .

Try experiencing going on a ... moreIf you tell a Sony fan that 4k screen is useless they'll be quick to target you, first you'll get branded as a Samsung fan then they'll say that xz premium and XZ2 Premium is best for watching 4k movies and 4k recordings and how the phones screen is better than TV and laptops.
    But since you've pointed out that 64GB memory isn't enough they are saying 4k movies shouldn't be dumped on phone? Now who's lying?
    Now just wait and see, if Sony releases a Xperia with an OLED screen just see how they'll praise OLED display technology like best for battery, best colours and contrast but right now their opinion is that OLED screens burn in you get inaccurate colours and is obsolete, LCD is the long lasting king. Hypocrisy at its best.

And let's see how good is your phones LTE connection. Not all countries give provide the same internet speed as the ones in europe or in america.
      "People just dump junk on their phones bcos they probably have the storage and try to pass it as having so much "Important" stuff on their phones." LOL! This is where you're WRONG! People dump junk phones because they have a very poor quality built! And most of these smartphones have only small internal storage space! How many 32GB android smartphones are there all over the world, that are still made in 2018? Even sony is still offering 32GB model such as the L2, R1, XA2, and XA2 plus. Other reasons are the LACK of UPDATES, and broken phones.
      "And they are mostly already watched movies or 4k videos which shouldn't be dumped on phones anyways." Do you think that all users only watch movies or 4k videos? How about watching a series then? You'll see how PUNY is the 64GB storage.
      Only watch Black-ish? How about watching One piece starting from episode 1 up to 851 on the go without the connection to the web? All are downloaded and in a 720 or 1080 format?
      Of course you have a laptop to watch all your favorite contents. But here in my country. Computers and laptops are REPLACED by smartphones because all users tend to use smartphones MORE than computers because they're on the go. Try going on the starbucks and you'll see a lot of smartphone users than laptop users.
      Do you think that if someone buys a 512GB note 9 would buy a note 10 next year? I'm a note 8 user(After being a sony user). And there's no reason for me to buy a note 9 because I'm on VR. You think it's the companies fault for milking us consumers? It is mostly the users FAULT because they are giving milk to the companies!

        manta, 29 Aug 2018Why it SHOULD be double, when this one can make the same jo... moreWhy it should be double? Try taking 4k photos, 960fps recording, video recording of friends, video recordings of a 1 hour event with a lot of people(Like in a concert), download and watch blu-ray content, download and read manga(Like the One Piece chapter 1 to 915), and even download and play games? For a 128GB model? I could fill that storage space SO easily!
        Even if the 0.5TB samsung cost like 50% more. Atleast it offers a 1TB(512GB internal storage + 512GB microSD storage) worth of storage space! Enough for a photo/video maniac, gaming maniac, and selfie maniac! Tell me. If the XZ3 supports 512GB of microSD storage. Where Can I get one easily without shipping and custom tax?

          Personally wish they move to QHD in screen res. ad raw output to camera and use stacking to get rid of noise and hdr by default. Changing resolutions from 19mp to 17mp depending on daylight/ lowlight situation should be also automatic, as 19mp hdr is way better. Wonder if it does Any stacking in most situations, samsung takes about 12 shots... its world of difference doing it(or anything else) manually or just enjoy.

            In reality, People just dump junk on their phones bcos they probably have the storage and try to pass it as having so much "Important" stuff on their phones.

            And they are mostly already watched movies or 4k videos which shouldn't be dumped on phones anyways.

            My 64gb XZ(1st gen) is having 38gb left and that's becos I'm having(dumped) 8 HD movies on it and a whole season of Blackish.

            I don't even watch them on phone to be frank, I use my Laptop for that. Plus there is currently no very important Apps to consume 128gb except games.

            Bottom Line, people dump junks on their phones, hence the demand for more storage. Sadly, people who will buy the 512gb Note 9 which will not be exausted will want to Upgrage to Note 10. SMH... We consumers let the companies milk us.

              How is Sony that confident to with this hideous design again?
              I mean people bought XZ2?
              Only people who bought XZ2 are youtube reviewers I think.
              LOL

                  Also 0,5TB Samsung cost like 50% more than this one. LOL

                    Thariq12, 29 Aug 2018I don't know whether you serious or not, but I don't think ... moreAre you sure that 128GB is more than enough? 128GB is too PUNY to me as I store a lot of media files wherever I go. Download a lot of games, and even surf the web or watch youtube! Cloud storage is useless. And getting a bigger external storage such as the 256GB, 400GB, and the 512GB microSD card isn't widely available and is much more expensive! A 512GB microSD card is almost the same priced as a mediocre android smartphone.

                      Niccy, 29 Aug 2018Just get the Samsung then and move on... JeezI did try getting a 512GB model. However, it is not available in my country.

                          Already 128gb is lot more for me.
                          Currently I'm using a 64gb variant and only 60% used which include Media files.
