The thing is that while other manufacturers have been out there trying to re-invent the wheel with trendy gimmicks, Sony has mostly dedicated itself to making subtle but consistent improvements to it's existing products - and so it's new releases are evolutionary rather than revolutionary.

The plus of this is that you end up with really polished phones and a fantastic user experience. I've owned LG, Sony, HTC and Samsung phones over the past 3-4 years and the Sony devices have been consistently had the most reliable software, the more reliable hardware, the most seamless user experience (perfectly smooth performance with no lag) and the frequent and effective software updates.

They are just so reliable, and they simply work when you need them to. Yet people consistently criticise them over a bunch of silly unimportant things like bezel sizes.

Good luck finding phones with a head phone jack outside of LG and Samsung. By the way, rumour is Samsung will also be ditching the jack in 2019. I am sure there will be mid rangers that suit your pocket!

        Well, when it comes to OLED, Sony does do it a bit better.
        Here is a compare (in italian tho) with plenty of screen comparisson samples:

        Seems Sony is better at contrast, sharpness and brightness here. Colors pretty much the same.

                Sony might have used some post and preprocessing on movies. They have some patents from bravia tvs. 70% is impressive score. But no mini-jack is no buy "feature".

All screens should have exactly the same brightness and not all turned to 100% brightness. Maybe this was done to favour the XZ3. They should repeat the test outdoors and see if the results agree.
