iPhone 6s vs. Galaxy S6 vs. Xperia Z5: Monster Brawl

23 October, 2015
Some phones just can't be reviewed in a vacuum, the competition between them is so fierce – and their price tags so high – that they have to be compared against each other under a microscope to determine the best one for you. The Apple iPhone 6s and Samsung Galaxy S6 are joined by the Sony Xperia Z5 for this three-way fight.

        How can I put my camera on portrait mode, whenever I open it goes automatically to landscape, even though the auto-rotate has been disabled? It just started last night, I don't know if I have clicked something or what. Can anybody help me with this, please? Thanks...

                      I used to have Sony Xperia Z1 & this is a great phone.It have been with me for more than 2 yrs & not yet spoilt.I pass my Xperia Z1 to my father after I bought my new Sony Xperia Z5.Samsung S5 claimed that S5 can go water resistant like Xperia Z1 or Z5 but they failed because when u put S5 in the water,u will see corrosion that is which substances in it.So Sony Xperia series like Z1,Z2 or Z5 is much better compared to Samsung in water resistant & also Sony camera is much better than Samsung & mostly overall of it.

                        I have both S6 and Z5, the Z5 is faster and smoother than the s6 in every way when stock.

                        When Z5 Bootloader unlocked and S6 on Engineering bootloader, both rooted and modded, Z5 still faster and smoother.

                        I rather use the very first Xperia Z than a S6 which I have been for a few weeks and I refused to touch the S6 again

                          Other phones are good except Sony but let's say other phones are only phones but Sony will be a faithful friend of yours in your palms

                            For those who have never experienced Sony i have to say get your hands on one before it's too late nd you will regret big time to lose the chance

                              AnonD-122669, 14 Dec 2015Look at S6 fans claiming S6 is so faster than Z5 because of... moreI have had few Samsung phones(S3, S4 mini, S5) and ALL of them are freezing, rebooting, lags. I don't play games(I don't push the phones too hard) so I consider all these problems as being unacceptable.

                              I think it's a problem from Touchwiz interface... It's really annoying to have a reboot or a freeze in the middle of a conversation or when you want to answer to a call.

                              I root them, I stopped/removed all the shit useless apps...still nothing.

                                        I d go with the sony if i wanted a android. I have been using a z3 dual . For the last 16 months and i seriously haven't found another worthy contender. I have a samsung s4 too as my work phone,it lags and hangs ..i happen to have a iphone 5 too. Its great and functional but has its limitations with respect to battery life and media content share.

                                        Z5 is great but not much to necessitate an upgrade from my Z3 Dual.
