Sony Xperia XZs review: Slow (e)motion

7 April 2017
Slap a new camera on the Xperia XZ, et voila - you have yourself a brand-new flagship. Is Sony taking advantage of a smartphone-induced decrease in human attention span? Or just doing what everyone else does?

    AnonD-481725, 14 Apr 2017You probably don't have any knowledge how camera should be ... moreSony doesn't supply camera sensors for all brands.

    There are Toshiba, Omni Vision, Samsung, SK Hynix, Aptina, OnePlus and more other brands of camera sensors.

The competitors don't have Motion Eye features, so you can only trolling and bashing without refer Dxomark rating. It looks so bias of you.

                  Sony, are you insane. How could you produce such an awful camera! The lenses are awful in terms of sharpness, distortion and aperature. You are doing worser in your premium phones than even chinese brands in their mid and low-range ones. I was aimed to buy XZ premium. But now I realize that it is just a piece of crap since it has the same cam as the XZs does. Disappointed in the highest extent. You must come to an end if you produce at least one more piece of crap!

                        I just read an article from a photographer. He is from Philippines...

                        He says XZ can is great in sunlight and avarage at night.
                        He also said the front cam of XZ makes the one on iphone 7 plus looks claustrophobic.

                        On his opinion XZ does better than Z5.

                        Also better than iphone 7+.
