If it have compact size, 5", cut that bottom and top bezel half. I'll go even it $900. Really impressed by camera performance.

Anonymous, 02 Mar 2017Dont forget screen burn in.
At my workplace we get a lot... moreWorking place deals are about 70-80% of Sammys flag sales....Every office gets Apples or Samsungs as official working devices.
Thats aggresive marketing....
Sony is seriously inferior in that marketing aspect.
Tbey need to invest in that.

AnonD-521587, 02 Mar 2017everyone used to complain about pixel size but honestly the... moreDont see nothing.lacking in this here lowlight samples....that Globe shot is tremendeously detailed.
And Sony still holds the upper hand in daylight with 19 mpx.
They increased pixel size, so to remain as small, sensor went down to 19 mpx( albeit I believe its 20 actually, read it somewhere).

4K screen is overkill and pointless and needless. Don't bother sony.

But yes. High resolution sensors do still help a lot in daylight too. Which like you say is still needed. The quality might be nice, but good abundant smooth detail is too

everyone used to complain about pixel size but honestly the high number of megapixels is great in broad daylight. I really don't care about low light performance it was never as bad as people made it out to be .
we shall see how well it does though either way.

People criticise sony and praise apple bcos they fear sony xperia xz premium. In my opinion, iphone 7 stack a lower battery capacity but it is not criticised.

OLED has low power efficiency not because the black and runs out when it shows white color, but because "OLED DOESN'T REQUIRE BACK LIGHTNING" like LCD did.
the Galaxy S7 is better in every aspect than the Xperia XZ (except The XZ has USB C) the Galaxy S7 has better display, battery life, audio quality, camera and you can check on GSMArena's review article.

AnonD-359894, 02 Mar 2017Display preference is personal choice. I personally prefer ... moreI don't think LCD and OLED as personal preference anymore, OLED is the next gen.
OLED advantages
- Low power consumption
- Infinite Contrast ratio (or at least better than LCD and you can notice the diferrent easily)
- Pure black
- Perfect viewing angle
- Faster response rate
And about color accuracy, you can tweak the setting for the closest to sRGB or natural color.
I don't care about tiny smarphone speakers quality, i use headphone or external/bluetooth speakers.
Samsung has secure folder feature, and the Iris scanner is the safest security, your friends or family can't open it.
When i'm using a phone on landscape position, i'm holding the frame and not the bezels, and the Galaxy S8's top and bottom bezels are enough to reduce accidental press.

AnonD-521587, 02 Mar 2017AKG should have tuned the actual sound of the phone instead... moreTrue, also small light color text on black is much, much harder to read than the same size of dark color text on white background, it is a biologic factor of eyes, so far I have found OLED good only for very large screens with movies and for very small screens with mostly visual signals, very few characters. Yet if the price of OLED drops below LCD all commercial screens will be OLED, burning faster then more sales, lucrative business.

LCD not only lasts longer, but is brighter and more color accurate than samsungs amoled as well as sharper. You just can't compete with 4k hdr mate no matter which way your fanboy spins it.
The camera on the xz can't be matched by anyone else sorry. Do you realize what its even capable of? many things the competition is not. Samsung doesn't have anything on sony on any department. The screen is outmatched, the battery is outmached, the camera, the software, the audio everything.
