    Goat, 25 Sep 2024Hello, is it not laggy? Are the cameras good compared to en... moreI have been using this phone since 2020 and till I'm using I can say that this phone is good for the price still in end of the 2024 but since I have Japan version android 9 is the final version but globle version is capable of android 10

    Cons
    Batter is the most concerning factor in today's usage this phone has I think 2700mah batter but it is not enough to use for full day and since I have using this phone year's batter has degrigated so max batter time is 5-6 h for me in here Sri Lanka we don't have parts for Sony phone so I can't replace so check the availability of the part if you going to buy this

    But I don't recommend this model to anyone the reseon is
    Battery,storage, display size, cameras, android version

      Bought it in 2019 and using ever since (now it's end of 2024), very reliable. Very good rear camera. Now i can start to feel that it's an older phone as it's sometimes not compatible with the newest features (lacking wireless charging, selfie camera could be better, android auto - i didn't manage to run it), but over all it is servig really well considering it's been used 5+ years!

However, one thing to consider is that this phone is stuck on Android 10, so you might not receive any app updates. But since I'm using it as a secondary phone, it's fine and not laggy.

                    I got this phone back in 2019 as a gift and i still got it it kind of has motherboard issue now because i gave it to my mother she used it while it was in her use my little sister threw it realy hard about a lot of times now the top part aand the botoom part are gone the surprising part? The display is still intact! Ok not understanding? Ok for example if i throw an average Gorilla glass 5 phone like poco F3 or so that many times might just become a pure garbage at that point not just the display the whole phone would die not to mention i used it like a belt and threw it at people did drop tests etc etc now those are all good memories i am still trying to find aa donor motherboard everywhere but as there is no official sony store in my country yet there is no spare part coming ever so i am still searching online everydaay and the issue is when i turn it on everything seems fine then after the device fully boots up and goes just into the lockscreen the screen automatically turns it off for no reason and as a repair shop told us it's a motherboard problem now and have to find a device with the same motherboard i am so sad about this this is the best phone of my entire life

                        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
