Sony Xperia XZ1 review: XZibit one

11 September 2017
Sony was never a company to blindly follow trends, having its own approach to the mobile market. A fact perfectly illustrated by the company's latest flagship duo - the XZ1 and XZ1 Compact, which you only need to look at once to recognize the Xperia pedigree. The 2017 Sony flagships proper combine the best elements across the lineup to try and cut themselves a solid piece of the holiday sales pie.

I posted many bad comments too in the past. But after it try xzs, it changed my mind. I Like it. Yeah i admit the design is a little bit dated. But there are no perfect brand in the world, all of them have weakness. Sony's flagship only have one small weakness, which is: design. other than that, it is the best for me.

            Anonymous, 21 Sep 2017best way to gain popularity, a la sony: 1. Pay stubborn sa... moreSony design is very squarish, the smartphone is beautiful elegant gorgeous and even with the bezel, yes the bezel with the colors/materials is amazingly refined. The body already change it materials/structure/design from Z2 to Z5 and to XZ and recently new phones, it have much more innovative if you compare the the Z generation with XZ generation such as multiple antenna, adopt the Gorilla Glass 5, world first side fingerprint and so on. Battery adopt the Qnovo is the most important improvement, the dual front facing speaker, the XZ1 and compact' speaker now louder than Z generation, the camera now have more powerful features and image quality is awesome more true to real life, the display even come with 4K HDR, the Xperia UI is lightweight fast and very stable. Xperia UI is not include complicated with funny stupidity actions. Xperia UI is extremely simplified, it can be more attractive just apply the themes , it doesn't like those other complicated UI lag after years/drain battery with Always On...( the Xperia's volume rocker has a nice placed and no need to pull down the notification bar to adjust the volume, specially annoying for a big phone.)

            3D scanner is most innovative technology that you can't find in other brands. Even Samsung wish to join the game, but late.

              They indeed are baby toys compared to what Xperia devices offer.

                UltimateZeroSeconds, 19 Sep 2017Just like I said, the trend is play by marketing strategy, ... morebest way to gain popularity, a la sony:
                1. Pay stubborn salesmen
                2. Use the same obsolete design every year
                3. Use the same obsolete ui every year
                4. Be overpriced
                5. Give bad service to customers

                And sony can do it perfectly. finally they gain "bad" popularity.

                        Primark, 20 Sep 2017Well I have read a lot infact that is why I am commenting on it.Obviously not. Is there some hate? Sure. Every page has it. Just the sad truths... But there is only a tiny handful of it...like 15-20%. The other 80-85% is just sony fans making it up, taking something factual that is not praising and twisting it, or doing the hating themselves.
                        Pure fact. Sorry you can't handle the truth.

                                      Sony problem to me is they are releasing thing too ahead of trend, the slim bezel Xperia ZL, the dual glass design, waterproofing and now the slow mo, believe me when slow mo becomes trend, sony's will be forgotten about their achievements much like the other thing

                                        Real World Sony Performance is what counts, which were Sony separates itself in cell market.
                                        Many of these listed brands have poor Real world performance and durability issues!
