      All flagships since X Perf already use 120Hz. Except xz2P (144Hz ).
      Even X and XA2 have 120Hz.

      Sharp has Aquos Zero that uses in-house oled. They announced two new 4K oled for mobile. 6.6" and 5.5"

          People complaining about big phones is actually the trend we need to set.

          I don't mind having phablet as an option but to have phablet as your standard size phone without a smaller alternative that is not butchered on specs is a dire strait situation. Just the other day I was playing with Mate 20 Pro and I could kill a men with it how big it is. It's great for those who have big hands or don't have the computer so they use the phone for do-it-all but where is the normal 5-5.5" device from Huawei with Mate 20 Pro specs? Not just Huawei but every other brand as well.

          Ever growing display size trend needs to stop really. That's why we got these super weird ratios such as 2:1, 18:9, 21:9 because they try to preserve the one hand grip but also increase screen size. I would go on and say 21:9 makes more sense than 18:9 cause if you want to make your display taller you might just as well go all the way. 18:9 is already two hand device no matter how small is the screen cause even with 5" 18:9 screen you need two hands to operate Android UI. And once you are at that point why not go all the way with 21:9 right? You give people perception that there is more usable screen when in reality that extra tallness is not usable at all but it's more screen estate.

            CristianEW, 06 Jan 2019It has an ugly notch , I don't need another iPhone .Take instead the beautiful bezel instead (end to end notch).

            SMH

              Zion, 06 Jan 2019I really dont understand what was the problem with 16:9 dis... moreAgree, i really miss the old ratio format a lot.

                BigDisplay, 05 Jan 2019O MY FREAKING GOD 21:9 it must really be a joke. Give me b... moreTotally agree.

                They have lost their freaking minds.
                Will no one be making 16:9 phones anymore?

                  Sony makes a unique phone, but I only marginal group of people like it. Sony seems to hate what people like starting from huge bezel to very tall display. 18.5:9 or 19:9 is great for today.

                    Whatever Sony makes, they will do the same error again and again. Announcing the phone early but ship it AFTER Samsung S10, so no media nor consumers will care about Sony.

                      21:9? If it has IR blaster, it will be a PERFECT REMOTE CONTROL.

                      Oh Wait! This remote will be too expensive for sure!!

                        Wow, that's new innovation. No more wide notch, waterdrew notch or hole. Just keep the slim top bezel for earpiece, sensors and front camera. The bottom bezel is so thin. Two thumbs up for sony this time.

                          Anonymous, 05 Jan 2019So, for you a phone is about RAM, ROM .... Tell me when... more''240 Hz oled '' ??? HAHAHA Only in that fantasy world of yours lmao

                                    Agreed, if this screen ratio introduced by Apple or Samsung no body was crying. And you have iPhone XS Max with same height and nobody complaint for remote control.

                                    Also nobody complaint for odd screen ratios for which they don't have any movies to watch. Some is laughing for watching movies or web series on phone, but they don't know daily viewers of Amazon Prime and Netflix on smartphone.

                                    Companies like Sony, HTC, Sharp etc are really giving you a good quality and technology ahead of time but they don't know how to market. That's the only problem with them.

                                      This way you can very easily work on two apps at the same time.
                                      Haters gonna wine like small brats but we all know how great it is for multitasking.
                                      I'm seriously considering leaving Samsung for Sony (again) :)

                                        I'm going to hold out until they release a phone with a 36:9 display; that would be sweet.
