I have also found that their cheaper treble is also higher than bass.
Sony completely has the great tuning/audio decoding of the audio quality that's great for music listening even for a long time. This is my Xperia Z2 experience.

RIP Compact series. This is not a worthy successor, more like Compact Max, i.e, not worthy of the compact moniker.

I don't understand why do some webpages and reviews continue calling this device compact. with over 150 mm height, there are lot of smaller devices available, which are more compact than this one. Also it's predecessor was more than 2 cm shorter - a true compact mobile.

Recently I have try a new China phone I thought 5 year later the China audio must have improved but I was wrong. The China phone audio quality was a mess even my 5 years Xperia Z2 is better and much nice to listen. I compare with the same earphone, the China phone can't delivery the same quality like Xperia. I also try the same Sony wireless speaker, although the China phone does "shout out" some solid audio/bass but it isn't nice to hear, it lack of listening quality I can't listen for a long time with it so I can only set 50%~60% of volume more than that it must be uncomfortable/dissatisfied/ disaster. My Xperia delivery the nice audio with the wireless speaker and comfortable for listening, I had try the full volume it is much much better.

Bezels don't protect phone because both bezel and screen are made with the same piece of glass. Just need corners to be rounded so the the impact force will be evenly distributed.

Stills performance is far more important than video, or else before the smartphones caught up you'd be seeing far more Handicams sold than stills cameras, however the opposite is true, and the Pixel is still the overall champion in stills capture.

I was comparing the screen of my Xperia 1 with an iPhone 11 and galaxy note 10 and they seemed low-end screen next to the Xperia 1, I guess the Xperia 5 screen also ridiculed them
