        AnonD-27765, 09 May 2017I had first hand experience with the XZ. Look at my profile... moreThanks tor showing how desperately you try to praise the s7 and degrade the xz. There's a limit of everything but not your advertisement on Samsung. I have seen both device in front of me and you are talking about first hand experience.
        P.s. Those who want to buy a smartphone please don't trust the review here cause they are either fan or hater which will never told you the truth.

          Carrie, 09 May 2017You are talking about papers and we talk about real used The endurance rating is what GSMArena got from real life battery usage of both devices. The S7 lasts 8 hours more than the XZ at doing basically the same tasks.

I favorited even 2 Sony Xperia phones. XZ was one of my top two choices for my next smartphone 6 months ago until I finally decided I was better off getting a S7 instead. I had enough time to try it out because there is this only one Xperia store here in my area which nobody even visits that lets customers try out their devices as long as they want in order to entice them into buying one. The XZ isn't a bad device. In fact, I would've even gotten it if only it was not that expensive at the time. Performance-wise, the XZ isn't exceptional. I can't barely even tell the difference between its performance and the S7's other than the XZ has quick animations which make opening apps look almost instantaneous whereas the S7 has pretty longer animations before opening apps which gives an impression that it's slower but it's not. Both are neck and neck in terms of performance. But XZ loses in about every aspect in terms of quality. The S7 looks more elegant and is more compact. The S7 takes better pics at all lighting conditions and is faster in capturing images and has tons of modes and filters in the camera. S7's screen is so much more pleasant to look at. Both have oversaturated colors. The XZ's screen is oversaturated for a LCD display and so is the S7's SuperAMOLED but it reproduces the color more pleasantly than the XZ. And it's not true that the S7 gets slow and begins to hang after a period of time. I've had my S7 for 6 months now. I've already updated to Nougat and done 2 more security updates since then and never done factory reset ever and current performance is virtually the same as the first time I used it. The XZ cannot outperform the S7. No amount of software optimization can magically make the XZ, running on old hardware and the same resource-hog Android OS, perform better by a wide margin than the S7 unless it's running iOS. And don't even get me started on the user interface and software features. The XZ has an ugly, inconsistent UI and it just can't compete with the rich set of advanced features of the S7.

Just because you have the s7 and happy with it doesn't mean its better than xz. I told you my mom has s7 and my elder bro has this xz and frankly xz is a lot better specially after 5 months of seeing both the device I bet xz is much smoother and you won't find any difference with it it work as new while the s7 begin to hang and battery life decreases more than 3months before. Except the camera nothing is better in s7 believe it or not and I'm not a fanboy i used different brand myself lg,asus,Sony,Samsung in the last 7 years.

                              About the throttling in z3+ and z5 series, the sd810 is design by qualcom so qualcom create the driver, sony can push any update but what it can do is nothing, cause its hardware problem, fixing the driver isn't much help either since qualcom itself had to make a refresh of sd810 name sd810AB to compensate the throttling problem, and the refreshed h sd810AB is not any better than sd810, sony did try to fix this by installing dual liquid filled heatpipe, a more aggressive solution than lumia950 liquid cooling(actually a single heatpipe with liquid in it, sony got two)

                                    So, even if it's Sony's fault why can't they just put their hands up, admit it's their fault and issue an update to fix the throttling?
