Many professional programmers (including myself) use an external monitor 21:9 format connected to laptop. This format is great for multitasking and productivity. Same idea behind this phone.

                  Past Sony owner , 02 Nov 2019Sony does not make phone's. If you do purchase a Sony phone... moreWhat do you even mean? Like, they don't build them on their own or what?
                  If that's your point, neither does Apple, for example.
                  I really don't get your point. Nobody builds their own phones. BMW doesn't build their own cars as well...
                  And as far as longevity goes, Sony has been nothing less than imoressive for me, for the last 15 years. I pass on my older devices to my parents and siblings when I buy a new one. For example, my mother still using a Z3, just changed the battery on it before I gave it to her, phone still performs like new, without a hitch. They are build like tanks and very cleverly engineered internals, I dissasemble a lot of phones, and that is one reason I go Sony, usually very easy to replace parts, and the parts are cheap. Also, they come down in price a lot very quickly, you can find them in as much as half the price, under a year old, even newer, and at that point these phones are price/performance beasts. They are overpriced at release initially, that's true, that's why I don't buy them when released, also I like to wait a bit for the reviews.

                          Can anyone already have this phone tell me if it has screen recording, pls? Thanks!Asked a Sony representitive this question and he asked me what's the model number. First I don't think different models of this phone will vary in screen recording, second I didn't have this phone in hand, how can I know its' model number.

                                Anonymous, 03 Nov 2019How is the camera performance and gaming?I like the camera due to its natural color and fast focusing. Photos look exactly like in real life without artificial colors. I don't play games so can't comment on that. You can find on YouTube a few professional photographers who know what they are doing. Sony phones are not a toy, you need to learn how to use manual mode for full potential.
