    Anonymous, 31 Jan 2019You say featureless... Let's see 10bit screen with 14... moreYes well people doesnt see that. You know if you take phone here on monthly basis it is much cheaper than Samsung or Iphone. XZ3 is around 22-23 eur. Samsung and Iphone 30+. Lg is around Sony, meanwhile Huawei (except) for P20 is also more expensive.

    Yes i had sony xperia xz. Perfect phone. Granted slightly worse low light photography but daylight was up to the best if not the best. Since then we have XZ4 soon. And im waiting for this. For sure. I know all others will be tempting as well...but not to name prices...price wise Pocophone, but in "brand" world...price and quality wise Sony. Always. I preferred XZ type of material used...it was top notch. Couldnt crash it. Couldnt. Since then i had two glass type phones. Both glass shattered. Bumper case? Yes and no. So im only worried bout casing. Rest is history.
    But people doesnt see that. They dont see quality in Sony. Even tho it is the best for build and numerous other things. Xz4 will be my choice.

    And to everyone who dont agree with Sony taking such dimensions..."Dont judge book by its cover" and especially "Dont judge before you even see the thing"

              Seems like Sony wins the spec race this time around. What matters more though is the result, the picture quality, the ram management, the battery life

If this is what it takes then I'd gladly take that kind of sensor instead. Sure the average endurance rating would go down to like 70 - 75 hours but at least, I got a cameraphone that will break DxOMark's internet.

                              I just want an XZ4 compact. Really don't understand why they've abandoned this market segment.

                                Sony Xperia XA3's body size and screen size, is good. Need XZ4 the same size. Make a premium mobile phone not premium tab phone.

                                  It can have 200MP sensor. Doesn't matter if photos still look bad.

                                    I think it will be good but need a decent body size with screen size like Samsung Galaxy S9, Very very good fill in hand and have a good screen size.

                                      Teressa, 31 Jan 2019Sony rise Samsung down :vlol

                                        52??? Jesus and I thought that the 25mp of my Xperia Z5 were enough. This makes me want it, but it shouldn't be this big for me. It should also have a headphone jack im afraid.

                                        If you are going to call it a flagship Sony, you may consider putting everything on it that makes a flagship, flagship.
                                        Have a version of it under 5,5 inches with headphone jack, and I will consider it.
