                            Despite the pros informed here, I find the colors and layout of in built apps of this phone very ugly, and the apps are not smart built. By ugly colors I mean flashy pink and horrible blue. What the hell, man, what about some elegance? Plus the problem that voicemail notifications don't go away. I am a little regretfull for these things. On top of all, it wasn't cheap.

                                  I did not know this until I bought the Z5. The camera in 23MP mode only gives you a 4:3 aspect ratio. To get a 16:9 aspect ratio picture (wide screen) you need to drop the camera MP settings to 20MP. SUCKS!!! Also, I did not get in ear headphones. I got a shitty pair of horrible sounding cheap ones. I have been robbed! The battery in my Z3 used to last much longer than the Z5. Why change something that was not broken??? I miss my Z3...

                                        I dont own the Z5 as i own the Z3 but have still manage to use the Z5 for couple of days. I am a Sony fan and both the Z3 & 5 are great phones. The highlight of both phones for me is the battery because with my z3 it last me 2days with 15% left thanks to the stamina/ultra stamina mode But now that all gone out the window due to the new marshmellow update, i have not a clue what they where thinking but its actually rubbish. My phone does not even last a full day anymore because they have decided to remove both stanmina modes in the new update. The replacement battery saver mode is pointmless becasue the screen dims to its loweset which makes can't be used outdoors. Just because of this i had a strong rating of 9/10 which has fallen to 6.5/10.... Needs fixing
