If only they released this phone with the updated hardware inside, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. :| The size / dimensions (wide but not tall), IP-68, the design. I don't even care about the bezels. Tsk. This and the XZ2 / XZ2 Compact were my favourite phones.

    I bought this phone new when it first came out in 2017. never updated to Android 9 since bugs were widely reported by users . never had any problems with any software or hardware after over 6+ years of daily use. i still get over 2 days of SOT .... from day 1, using an app to suspend the OS it's not in use for long periods (such as when I'm sleeping) helped with extending the battery life. THIS PHONE IS A BEAST!
    If you can find a used one in good condition, BUY IT!

      This phone is better for me than any other phone!

          Best phone I've ever owned. My LG dualscreen is toast so I went back to it. It's had water inside it, dropped from 8ft onto pavement numerous times, left in my car in direct sun and during the winter in - 35°C..... Still works amazing. It's only issue is it's charge isn't as long as it once was and the plastic strip along the top is gone. I have my eye on a few BNIB replacements... I'll be sad if I ever don't have one.

            Actually still a nice phone to use. The screen's good quality, performance is OK (better than a cheap new phone) and the battery lasts ages for a smaller cell. It even has a fingerprint scanner on the side where it should be. Just be careful not to get one with bootloop faults.

            Pros:
            Good battery life
            Usable-good performance
            Nice Sony display panel
            Built like a tank
            Extremely affordable on the used market
            Actually easy to replace screens and charging ports
            Stereo speakers
            Charges very quick

            Cons:
            Has a bootloop problem like the iPhone 7 and early Google Pixel models
            Starts to seriously lag after 30 minutes of gaming
            Stuck on Android 9.0
            Fairly uncomfortable to hold for a long time

            Recommendation: 7/10

                  Buy a second hand from Carousell Singapore. The owner bought the Docomo version in Japan

Mine is completely fine and can even handle heavy games with high settings, although the phone's battery is not that durable. Sony XZ1 has an aluminum frame to reduce it's risks of getting hot

                              After 10 months, Samsung A73 died when a drop of water went inside accidentally, but the Xperia XZ1 I used to shoot videos of waves in the sea, even the iPhone 12 Pro temporarily went to comma stage for 2 days when the water went inside ) XZ1 is one of the greatest phone ever made by Sony in the past years
