There's no XZ3 Premium with 18:9 4K oled. It's XZ4 Premium with 21:9 4K LCD/OLED.
Ambiente Flow will be gone in 2019.

Same applies to Sony with Swiftkey, Amazon, Spotify and AVG.

Look look. A single negative opinion always make sonyboys panic.
Sony's comments sections are always funny. You post 1 negative comment, the fnboys will reply to it indefinitely.
The bad thing is.. most of those fnboys dont even buy the latest sony phones. They just love to defend sony. This is the reason why sony always failed to sell its phones. Most people (even the fnboys) avoid to buy its latest phones.

Shanti Dope, 11 Nov 2018The boxy shape of the XZ Premium makes it closer to OmniBal... moreLoop Surface is completely different from Omnibalance, it's just a rip-off of Xiaomi mi 3 and Lumia 920. Ambient Flow, on the other hand, has the same front as Omnibalance (though it was changed in XZ3 in a way I don't like) combined with a more comfortable back. I've owned five Sony phones, including three Compacts, and XZ2C is easily the best one. Plus it's the most comfortable Compact due to the round back.

Anonymous, 11 Nov 2018Dude, XZ premium is much further from Omnibalance than XZ2 ... moreThe boxy shape of the XZ Premium makes it closer to OmniBalance than the curvy waves of the XZ2 Premium.
Loop Surface is a slight upgrade of OmniBalance, but Ambient Flow is the real successor, but I don't consider it an upgrade since it parts away from the key design element that made Sony phones unique and elegant in simple ways.
I hate people for forcing Sony to do a complete redesign. Now the XZ3 looks like a shameful rebirth of the Galaxy S7 Edge. If they didn't listen to their customers, then they might've made a better design with inspiration from the XZ Premium.
I'm just glad they're somehow returning back to their baseline and become more original again, at least that's what the most reliable rumours are saying (XZ4 will not incorporate the XZ3's dual curved edges, as it proves to be very impractical and of no good use at all).

Anonymous, 11 Nov 2018Do you mean that the XZ3 can shoot 960fps super slow motion... moreNo autofocus because it's expected that you'd only shoot subjects that are farther away from the sensor.
I would love to see you record a macro super slow motion and confirm my thought to be right that you're nicely stupid :))
No decent editing software?? That's why we get 3rd party apps. But why would I still edit a slow motion video? I rarelybl even edit pictures, and I'm sure that many other users are the same. If I'd edit the videos, I'd use Sony Vegas Pro on PC, and now that is a "decent" editing software, actually more than that.
XZ3 has no 4K HDR screen, but it wasn't supposed to. That would be reserved for the XZ3 Premium next year, and will be the very first 4K HDR 18:9 OLED smartphone screen.
But saying it has no 4K screen sounds as if other smartphone OEM actually HAS one. LMAO Note 9's color shift is even worse than the XS Max's, which in itself is slightly behind the XZ3 in the same aspect.
And that is a 9th generation of AMOLED vs FIRST generation of p-OLED of JDI. Wow, such quality! South Korea is the best!

Updates aren't always about changes.
A change is only needed when something is broken. In that case, Samsung always needs something new and change because it has always been broken in several ways.
Their UI isn't as horrible today as it has been before, but it's crazy how many years it took them to get their sh*t right.
Even then, their highest end phones are still slower than most Android competitors, with features that aren't even anything useful or better than the others.
Let's set Huawei as an example of a speedy update even with heavy UI tweaks.
And I bet $200, the Xperia XA2 series will receive Android Pie update around the same time that the Galaxy Note 9 would receive it.

Anonymous, 10 Nov 2018You mean decent components that weigh more but last longer :)
Well they are not plastic they are made from Ununseptium which is most heavy m,etal ever created thus they are heavy.
Ununseptium is the of the heaviest material on earth.ever created. It have 117 Atoms and weights 40% more than a plumbum or lead. Thats heavy are Sony phones.
