Wow, this phone already released 15 months ago, and here I'm using it for just 3 weeks (bought 2nd hand) and I have to say it's the best phone I've ever had.
Battery could last 1 day and 10 hours (6% left) with casual use, data package & wifi, ~ 5 hours of plant vs zombies 2, browsing - streaming (single sim, on nougat).
Hope this phone will last more than my previous Xperia P (~years of usage).

The burning and shading in OLED pannels especially in Samsung pannels is due to the OLED method itself which is the deferent brightness level between every pixel and the worse is some pixels are on while some others are off, it saves power but kills the display.

I set my screen display to turn off automatically in 30 seconds. And I don't know what you are on about OLEDs, etc. But from what is currently known out there a black background saves battery life.

Gino76, 09 Jan 2018I'm sorry but come again? Whether it is IPS, LCD or AMOLED... moreLCDs including IPS displays can't switch off backlight, can only dim light. Whereas in OLED displays, individual pixels act as own backlight. So, in black area of a picture, OLED displays can switch off individual pixels but LCDs cannot. LCD is an old technology and it lags behind OLED technology.

Whether it is IPS, LCD or AMOLED a dark (or black) screen actually saves battery life as it doesn't uses electricity to lighten up the individual pixels on the screen.

I subscribed to the program for all of my Z and X high-end flagships, and u can hide the app tray icon hence u can swipe up to have the app drawer, but do note that the app icons may look smaller even though it looks much more pleasing for me. The link is available in the XPERIA HOME BETA description, after subscribing to it u will receive the update in your software update section for your XPERIA. U can also unsubscribe if u don't want it which is also found in the description

1. App tray icon cannot be removed
2. No system side dark theme (not possible via Themes or thru 3rd-party launcher; still have a white background under Settings which doesn't help with battery life)
3. Still no blue light filter under drop down quick shortcuts
4. Speakers still sounding the same (a software update can easily remedy this)
5. Reboot could be faster
6. Camera (need I say more:)

As from what I heard for the November Security Patch, users are getting battery drains when the smartphone is on standby, and I am not getting the battery drain here fortunately, I slept for 11 hours and the battery percentage stayed the same throughout at 70% with WiFi turned on, pretty impressive I got to say...
