RockStar2005, 20 Aug 2016I like the brushed aluminum back of the XP more than the Z5... moreLOL you guys are still arguing with that troll avan ? .. give up and just ignore him ... all his posts are utter nonsense anyway ... bc if you argue with the troll - he wins it's basic rule of the internet .

    Avan Dr, 20 Aug 2016It looks like you have very limited knowledge about phone. ... more
    My knowledge on the phone is extensive, obviously more than yours. The fact that you still think the Z5 is better than the XP only further validates that.

    I don't need a video to tell me something different than my own experiences with BOTH phones. It's COMMON KNOWLEDGE that TouchWiz is a pretty laggy (not to mention LOUSY) UI, so for all I know the phones in your video were messed with to get more favorable results for the S7. The fact that the video does a "Speed Test" tells me right there it's BS. Speed tests are meant to determine NETWORK SPEED not device speed. It's all right here. Read it and learn something.

    https://support.speedtest.net/hc/en-us/articles/203845400-How-does-the-test-itself-work-How-is-the-result-calculated-

    And who the F cares about boot up speed? And who cares if the HTC 10 is a unibody or not? The point is it's METAL on the back, and STILL premium! I can't believe you actually tried to argue that it matters.

    In this video, the results lean towards the Xperia's favor with regards to speed. The point of this is to show you that benchmarks aren't as accurate as people think. There are MANY factors that can alter the end result. They are really just guidelines at best. My S7 SKIPPED every 3-5 minutes while playing music via the MicroUSB port (this happened ALL THE TIME), while my XP after 3-4 HOURS didn't skip once. THAT'S what I care about........the phone that doesn't dare F with my music listening. So F the S7. I'd first use it as a coaster for my drinks than as a phone.

      XPERFORMANCE, 19 Aug 2016no sony xperia xperformance in south africa??? :-( why ????SONY high end phones from MWC... well I could say that those are not actual flagships and come only to selected markets only , and are being released in the first place because of the demand in home country - Japan ... they like new phones every six months or so .., therefore a summer release to a market of Z2 , Z3+ and XP . true flagships come at IFA along with compacts Z1 , Z3 , Z5 and have much quicker release to global market... hope you see the pastern...

      anyway there will be soon new SONY devices announced at IFA on September 1. and according to all leaks and info so far will have this specs :

      -KUGO or Xperia XR - 4.6 inches : 3GB RAM , 1080p , 2700 mAh battery (seams a lot like successor to Z5 Compact , and SONY already used before letter ''R'' in Xperia ZR whcih is compact or mini variant of original Xperia Z )

      -KAGURA or Xperia XZ - 5.2 inches : supposedly is coming with 4GB RAM and QHD screen...

        RockStar2005, 20 Aug 2016I like the brushed aluminum back of the XP more than the Z5... moreIt looks like you have very limited knowledge about phone. I will find the easy way to explain it.

        For now Check this out.

        https://youtu.be/qm85qUtiso8

        With the same network xp got 150mbps, S7 get 200mbps. S7 has dualglass design like Z5. So dual glass is better design.

        Stop overhype plastic on XP, signal strengh is still in question, but plastic cheap is abvious.

        And HTC 10 has premium full metal unibody NOT only flat METAL BACK. It means the frame and the back of HTC 10 are made from one piece aluminium.

          DenisXD, 19 Aug 2016snapdragon 810 runs great on Z5, it actually runs the best.... moreDenix, go check the endurance rating of z5, lol.

            *see your point

              Avan Dr, 20 Aug 2016Z5 has more premium build, to make metal frame is costier t... moreI like the brushed aluminum back of the XP more than the Z5's glass backside, though I did really like the chrome/mirror-colored Z5P too.

              I've read several reviews that said that plastic/polycarbonate is better than metal for signal reception, so I dunno. Well that's a matter of opinion.........the HTC 10 has a metal back too, so again I don't really so your point as that is very much considered a flag ship phone dude.

                RockStar2005, 19 Aug 2016 Yes Ali, the Z5 is great but overall it's NOT better than... moreZ5 has more premium build, to make metal frame is costier than flat metal back. Metal frame needs more difficult cutting.
                Plastic side for improved reception? LOL. The low end phone has plastic side and plastick back, better?
                Large space glass back is far better for signal than plastic side only, z5 also has nfc chip on the back. Best placement.

                The dual glass design is premium design, only for flagship and budget flagship or premium midrager, like S7, mi5, honor8, one plus X, A team.

                While metal back is only for low end. The only phone with the same metal back design is honor 5C.
                http://m.gsmarena.com/huawei_honor_5c-pictures-8074.php
                The most applied design is metal back sloped to side, like redmi 3, honor 5X, galaxy on7, medipad t7 etc.

                    Yes Ali, the Z5 is great but overall it's NOT better than the X or XP (which are identical in terms of camera, screen display, etc), as PROVEN in this video:

                    https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=g5SJq-Jag20&app=desktop

                    And plastic sides make way for IMPROVED reception over metal sides, in case any one on here forgot this is a PHONE we're talking about.

                      DenisXD, 19 Aug 2016snapdragon 810 runs great on Z5, it actually runs the best.... moreOh my God oh my God oh my god, i wish i can say what ever i want, but i can't :(, xperia x plastic??? Glass better than plastic? How much? Sharp edges to protect phone? Still saying x series overheating :(, for the second time they are not, but overheating control program " overheat security " is adjusted earlier to send overheat report and shutdown the camera and dim the screen and restrict hardware performance, did you hear about overheat control in Xperia smartphones? You are not making any sense, you are trying so hard to prove that z5 is better, it is not, but it is excellent device overall, but not better than both xperia x and x performance :).

                        AnonD-481725, 19 Aug 2016First of all qualcomm 810 is the king of overheating issues... moresnapdragon 810 runs great on Z5, it actually runs the best. Z5 is the best s810 phone, tested!
                        Z5 is what? plastic? glass back glass front and metal ring.. Where's the plastic? Ah you must mean x, it has a plastic ring doesn't it?

                        What? the edges PROTECT the phone in case it falls. x doesn't have any protection against falls, meaning less durable design, meaning more worries on your head. Being practical is the case here, in the long run z5 has way more surviving chances than any x performance or edge phone.

                        So x performance can record 4k video ya? So why it overheats by recording just 1080p? let alone 4k which it doesn't have. And why would I need to fu.cking root a flagship device to get it to record 4k? it's a flagship device isn't it? Why it doesn't have 4k recording from it's box?

                        So if x and x performance handle heat better than z5 does as you say, why they overheat even by recording just 1080p video? please enlighten me.

It's not. x is... moreFirst of all qualcomm 810 is the king of overheating issues, z5 overheats more than x series but the problem of vedio recording in x series that they are adjusted very early to report overheating then shutdown the camera, regarding to the build quality and design, when metal was better than plastic??? The 5 inches display is definitely better than 5.2 in one hand usage, many people complaining about the sharp edges in z5 series they are very harmful to the hands.
                          Being a z5 owner doesn't mean that it is better (-_-).

                              X Performance is a better phone than z5 right now, its got sd 820, qnovo battery with batterylife about equal to z5 (reports are very inconsistent, some praise, some dont), better cameras, better screen, sturdier design...
                              And yes, it can record 4k video through 3rd party apps or by root, and has h.265 going for it.

                              So, it is better, newer phones do tend to be better.

                              But z5 is great too tho.

                                why ????

                                  DenisXD, 18 Aug 2016what?! Dude s7 has a much better battery life than both x a... moreOn paper? No....... on paper the S7 is faster since it has 4 GBs of RAM and the XP only has 3. In real life however, the XP is faster and doesn't lag.

                                  I don't even bother looking at benchmarks anymore, or if I do, I put little stock in them. Again, I'd listen to music with my headphones using the S7's MicroUSB connection, and it'd skip like EVERY 3-5 minutes (despite having more RAM)! SUPER annoying! Then I got my XP and one night I remember I went like 3-4 hours STRAIGHT with the same setup, and it didn't even skip once. NOT ONCE! And you guys actually question that new article stating that Sony's Xperia phones have the best software? That is why I don't listen to the XP nay-sayers, because I know the truth first-hand.

                                  Do you guys even own or have held the XP in your hands? I keep hearing specs & stats that you're reporting from official sources, but what are your own PERSONAL experiences with the XP? Do you even have any??

                                    RockStar2005, 18 Aug 2016The S7 is a great phone DenisXD, but it's also somewhat ove... morewhat?! Dude s7 has a much better battery life than both x and x performance. it's at the level of z5's battery life. s7 is also smaller than x performance, and it has a bigger screen and a bigger battery. Sony can't even make a proper flagship anymore. Z5 is still the best Sony phone, like it or not.
                                    x performance is faster? on paper yes, but since snapdragon 800 it doesn't matter. Phones since then never lag and run flawessly whatever you throw at them. Dont get fooled by antutu and benchmarks, there is no actual difference since 2014, except in 1 or 2 seconds difference. Big deal right? No.. it's not a big deal at all.

                                    Stop defending what you can't defend. s7 is well ahead x performance as a whole.

                                      The better design is the 2,5 glass? It's not. x is more prone to breaking now.
                                      What? overheating? Dude you are ridiculous! x performance shuts down the camera even by recording 1080p videos. Z5 can record 1080p videos until it runs out of memory. The only way to overheat Z5 is 4k recording. Something both x and x performance missing because they overheat even by recording 1080p lol.
                                      That's poorly optimised software, get it? if x performance was a flagship it wouldn't have poorly optimised software, and we wouldn't see a new flagship in november, a true flagship.

                                      Keep moaning, x performance is not a flagship. Z5 is a flagship!
