I agree with you, its Absolutely a better offer than XZ2 if you want dynamic vibration feature on a phone today.
But you ll miss dynamic shockr experience in games and movies too, as Rokr had it only for mp3.

why the hell did they go with a single led flash? after all these years they don't learn nothing. if you want to make good low light go triple led with xenon.

Predictive memorys, 31 May 2018XZ2 teardown show their battery is better design than all t... moreActually your wrong. Go to your Sony video at about 3 minutes. Sony battery is glued to metal plate. Battery is held upside down and doesn't fall, as its glued to metal plate holder.
https://youtu.be/jflqIhowGvQ?t=2m43s
Plus, who says glue on a battery is bad ? Where is your proof ? Show us some scientific proof ? Your biased opinion means nothing here.
Also wrong about Samsung. Go to 1.12 minute and see how easy it is to replace the S9 battery. Obviously a far better and simpler design than Sony.

S9 is exac... moreYou are the one that showed a tear down of the S8.
FYI, foam is weightless and the correct glue is almost weightless.
Front and back screens of XZ2 are glued on also. Plus, anywhere in the World, its much easier to find a tech to replace a Samsung screen. Most countries don't even have Sony phones or parts available.
Foam is also a great insulator, assists cooling and absorbs vibration. One reason why Samsung phones are much more durable than Sony phones.
XZ2 is like an old carburetor car versus a modern Samsung computer design.

There is NO screen shield inside XZ2, stop lying. Total and utter nonsense !
XZ2 will fracture more easily due to its humpback design and most likely break the camera lens and fingerprint scanner.
S9 has more foam inside to adsorb vibration and reduce damage.

As you can see the top quality design at below link:
https://youtu.be/jflqIhowGvQ?t=2m43s
Using the glue on the battery is the worst! (example S9 using adhesive glue the battery on: https://youtu.be/A0zAwJlypOk?t=1m16s)
Previously Xperia is using the 3M adhesive tape to fix the battery on, this is still better than the glue on solution, teardown the battery with glue may broke the battery.
The newest battery designs for XZ2 is using the pin/plate on the battery, it is sturdy and safety and easy for removable.

I just knew S9 would pop up with you people.
S9 is exactly half foam and glue made Im speaking of, you cant even replace the screen without replacing a good amount of components with it, as they are glued or foamed to the screen itself, glued are also most flexes that hold some board components together, no antenna holders, no pin connectors except one for main board.
Looking at teardown XZ2 vs that phone is like looking at teardown premium Marantz vs common Watson amplifier.

Why is there too much hate and rant on Sony?
If you people don't like the brand or their products, just simply ignore their page, or If you are a former or an unsatisfied customer/user move on.

But since the back isn't too curved like XZ2, it will fare better when dropped. Maybe the battery isn't screwed into the frame, but does that even matter to a user? XZ2 uses glue to stick the glass to the front and back of the frame, so there you go lol.

We users ask for innovations, so Sony gave us DVS. Its a cool innovative feature that uses dynamic along with haptic feedback. Pretty cool feature for ex, gaming, or media consumption.
We didnt ask for removal of 3.5mm jack, or side power/fp scanner tho...
Dont know what was Sony thinking there.
But DVS is nice.

Just much much less foam and glue, but more quality components like real pin connectors, antenna holders, graphic plates, and more component boards inside.
All is quite obvious if you watch the teardown video, and compare it to other phones in same category.

What is the International glass standard in Sony phones? Show us your proof.
International Standards - Glass Standard
ASTM C158: This test method covers the determination of the modulus of rupture in bending of glass and glass-ceramics.
ASTM E2098: This test method covers procedures for determining the breaking force of glass fiber mesh following their conditioning in an alkali solution.
