Vineet Reddy, 24 May 2020That had enough battery to get you through a full days usag... moreSure. Especially when my V30 which just barely cut it for a days usage, also has hours more potential usage on a charge. I totally believe you. Unless what you call a days usage is from 1 PM to 8 PM. (Instead of 6:30 AM to 11:00 PM for me)

Anonymous, 24 May 2020Actually lots of people watch movies and series on a daily ... moreI suppose on the way to work is the single excuse for that. So sure, I guess if you're someone who commutes to work for 2 hours daily, this is the phone for you.
"As for you prefer watching movies on your tv, well obviously yes, the same can me said about gaming on a proper 144hz monitor." I never said on my tv. I said "on my 29 inch 21:9 1080p LG LCD". What tv has those specs. It's obviously a monitor. The point I was making was that movies are best saved for anything other than a tiny phone screen.
"The point is I have my phone in my pocket and that is what I must use when out and about so that is why it is a perfect phone for my needs" So you're one of those people that commutes to work for 2 hours? If not I don't see why you would ever need a 21:9 not high refresh rate display. When do you have 2 spare hours to watch a movie uninterrupted while not at home?

joe nodden, 24 May 2020Get the XZ Premium and deal with terrible battery life and ... moreI owned XZ Premium to replace my XZ and despite smallish 3230 mAh, the battery life is good to great, getting me SoT of 6-7hr SoT in heavy usage, and can go beyond 10hr SoT in normal usage. We're not talking about standby here, that's one of Sony's biggest strength in battery management, where most OEMs had to take note for.
And for the bezels? Those bezels play a lot of roles in my convenience in ergonomics all the time, by putting and resting my fingers in the bezel without the worry of unintentional touching. And XZ Premium was developed during Z5 launch, 1.5 years before its release in 2017, so the bezel-less trend started around Oct.2016 didn't touch the XZ Premium.

By the way, I have nothing against this phone not having 120 Hz refresh rate. I think it is a good phone overall. I just find the thinking of some people here particularly interesting.

Edit:
Lol who was bragging about Sony being the first to introduce phones with nonfunctional 120 Hz screens and now proclaiming that 120 Hz screens are useless? The hypocrisy is real.
It is a gimmick until Sony decides to implement it - Sony fans' logic

joe nodden, 24 May 2020Ah right I almost forgot people watch movies on their phone... moreActually lots of people watch movies and series on a daily basis, on the way to work or whatever and would call that normal use or a phone.
As for you prefer watching movies on your tv, well obviously yes, the same can me said about gaming on a proper 144hz monitor. But that isn't really the point is it? The point is I have my phone in my pocket and that is what I must use when out and about so that is why it is a perfect phone for my needs

joe nodden, 24 May 2020Get the XZ Premium and deal with terrible battery life and ... moreThat had enough battery to get you through a full days usage even with continuous browsing and chatting with regular gaming and YouTube streaming. What else do you need. And Massive bezels I don't understand why that is bad when in return you are getting better Hi-Res Stereo speakers which was again first by SONY and was way ahead of its competition of that time when it comes to Clear and Natural experience.

I'm sure you play lots of games and there are better phones for your needs. And music the LG and your good headphones I'm sure are excellent. However surely even you can admit that to watch a movie or Netflix series there is no better option than this phone? Or are you going to try to convince me that 1080 hd on your lg will give a better experience even with your very good headphones?

This phone... moreI think Sony would rather sell more phones instead of just having a higher number of comments on a tech website than others. The phone is good and I'm going to buy it, but actually it's Sony standing in the shadows of the others, not because of the phone itself, but due to their lack of marketing. You can build the best phone in the world, but it means nothing if most of the people don't know that it exists. When I talked about the phone at work (I live in germany, a place where you can still buy Sony phones) with two of my coworkers they where like "Oh, so Sony is still making phones?". I think that sums up the problem very well.
And if they continue to sell less and less phones they won't do it any longer. Even if you want to do it for prestige, at some point your shareholders will ask you if you're out of your mind. It's the same that happened with HTC phones, which is the reason i'm here. They didn't feel the need to advertise their phones while Samsung did it a lot and overtook them. I stuck with my HTC 10 because I found nothing that could replace it, then I found out about the 1 II. But that's the point, I had to search for it and the majority of the people won't do that.

People need a reason to not like this phone for some reason on this forum. And the best they can do is focus on refresh rate and quick charge. Like the bloke who would rather watch movies on his lg at 1080. Just to try to prove a point
