20 pages of comments. And this phone is not even released yet. Interesting...

    "That works on other ways you know. You defend sony xperia products. So why don't you go to a nearest sony store and be like a sandwich board guy to promote the sony product?"
    Your comprehension fail again! I told you I am a Xperia user I reply to you(basher), other than that is not my consideration!

    " Doesn't matter if your unit survives if you can't even use the xperia device to record videos or take photos under salt water."
    Six months immersion under the seabed is not enough win your heart, but a little short time for Samsung record under the sea can win your heart! You better go and test your Samsung in real life, I am waiting you regret to immerse your Samsung more than 1 day without doing anything!

    "How can they(Samsung) fail on their(Samsung) flagship models if their smartphones are rated IP68?
    Without further ado, just test your Samsung IP68 phone immerse under the seabed for just 1 day only, I bet you definitely loss your words.

    " And have you seen anybody using a samsung smartphone to record super slow motion camera? NO! Even here in my country. The only thing that is mostly done by everyone is take photos or videos, and video chat."
    It depends where you are living, be open minded, most of the YouTuber using Super slow motion weren't from your country, you can refer to the YouTuber profiles. On the other hand, the Perdictive Capture is more useful in real life, but your beloved Samsung doesn't catch up Sony.

    "Is that all the 3d creator can do? HA! And if you're thinking that 3d images will be used as ID for gamer account? LOL! As long as sony doesn't have any co-developer. That 3D creator is nothing!"
    3D Creator can scanning the user face and turn it as a avatar in Facebook:
    http://gameaxis.com/news/tech-news/take-3d-avatars-new-sony-xperia-xz2-phones/
    And your Samsung user are excited to finding the Sony's 3D Creator app for Samsung phone:
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS8/comments/7o7kht/sony_3d_creator_app_apk_for_samsung/
    ... Still deny behind Sony?

    "And you think that a user wants a vibration that syncs with the sound? FYI, Vibrator eats battery life!"
    It depends how many call you received, if more than 100call daily you receive you can reduce the vibration level or disable on the toggles too. I haven't test it at the showroom but normally won't eat the battery too much.

    " Did you think I don't know that? LOL! I watch a lot of videos and play games with two FFS. What I hate is that stupid Dynamic Vibration System. Why didn't sony created Dolby Atmos Front Facing speakers with bigger mouths?"
    Sony audio technology is way better. For XZ2 it bring more sense by the Dynamic vibration system and you can learn from Sony official page, the XZ2 has the loudest Xperia speakers ever. The front facing stereo speakers use S-Force Front Surround to put you in the middle of the music. Sony leading in audio technology, they adopt S-Force Front Surround earlier than competitors and they increase the loudness this time! Without ugly bigger mouths...
    "
    Let me remind you that Accuweather is only usable before a calamity strikes. Just so you know. Weather patterns changes most of the time. And the app isn't that accurate!"
    Which is more accurate? Is there a lighting coming toward to your area will you keep connect antenna to read the news? The weather predictive is only a prediction and it is cover for an area that may difference form distance to distance.

    " Unless you have a proof that he/she spreads fake news. Then you don't have a reason to call it a fake news!"
    Unless you can proof that he/she isn't mal/fake user, then you don't have reason to ask me believe him. If it isn't enough to convince yourself, why are you play down Sony on you all reply.

        Tann Hauser, 22 May 2018Yikes man. You sure can write long. If you are enraged abo... moreNothing premium about Sony phones, expect the printed name.
        4K resolution on a 6" screen that the human eye can differeniate from a 1K screen. Biggest gimmick of the decade ! Thats why no other brands have 4K !
        What special camera features ? You mean NO optical zoom, NO variable aperature lens, NO dual pixel lens, NO auto 960 fps video recording, etc, etc.
        NO Dolby Atmos sound
        Most flagship phones can handle 400gb cards now
        Sony has NO mobile VR headsets, NO VR store, NO VR software
        Sony Remote Play with available PS4 controller connectivity that costs another $600/800 and is NOT mobile and requires wall cables and power....lol
        What expensive engineered inside design ?...thats just plain rubbish...can you prove this ?
        Sony flagship is heaviest and thickest phone in its class. Also the most ugly according to hundreds of Sony fans here.
        I can't see any reason whatever to even consider buying this phone.
        Nothing premium about Sony phones, expect the printed name.

          If you are enraged about what Sony doesnt offer you, buy sth else you find more appealing.
          But Sony phones are Premium, no doubt about that.

          Have a Premium 4k hdr screen that none have, have special premium camera features that none have, have Remote Play with available PS4 controller connectivity that none have, have best and most expensive engineered inside design that none have, etc...
          It is Premium.
          About the rest...has bixby like software, its called google assistant, has advanced stereo sound in Sonys own S force Surround, has most advanced AR features with its AR effect and 3D scanner implementation, has a premium 400gb card slot that those with 128/265 gb do not have, is capable of anything a Daydrem VR phone can offer, and through better supported Cardboard VR that utilises same functional VR+controller sets(Daydream is just a VR suite to sell Googles expensive Daydream VRset, no extra func5i9nality over common Cardboard Suite)
          Etc,etc ..

            "First of all you don't read the whole sentence, it said:" SIX WEEKS LATER, a friend of his went scuba diving and was able to recover the device (Z2). While the handset has received external damage and its battery was out of juice, surprisingly it booted right up after being plugged in. In fact, the device was still working well enough to make calls and everything." Either your comprehension fail or you want to misleading people, why don't you mention six weeks duration of immersion for the Z2 UNDER the SEA, it is over the limit but still survive." And the fact that the Z2 can't be used to record under salt water stays! Doesn't matter if your unit survives if you can't even use the xperia device to record videos or take photos under salt water.
            "Why Samsung doesn't do the same thing to test it limit? I think just One day Samsung will fail in the immersion lol." How can they fail on their flagship models if their smartphones are rated IP68?
            "Samsung copy Super slow motion with only 720p(less clear) from Sony but you said it is no needed by everyone. While Sony bring 1080p(more clear) super slow motion and allows Predictive Capture to take pictures before you even press the camera button for save some missed images, it is really practical and very useful, while Samsung still behind Sony!" And have you seen anybody using a samsung smartphone to record super slow motion camera? NO! Even here in my country. The only thing that is mostly done by everyone is take photos or videos, and video chat.
            "About 3D Creator, at first I am not interested but later I find it is useful to capture the every freeform and save into 3D file for memories it is quite nice and futuristic, scanned 3D images can also use for AR photo capturing and video recording the development will bring the 3D images into the ID for gamer account." Is that all the 3d creator can do? HA! And if you're thinking that 3d images will be used as ID for gamer account? LOL! As long as sony doesn't have any co-developer. That 3D creator is nothing!
            "Dynamic Vibration system algorithm the sound to perform every beat it is interesting, I think incoming call the phone can also vibrate according the ringtone pulses." And you think that a user wants a vibration that syncs with the sound? FYI, Vibrator eats battery life!

              Tann Hauser, 22 May 2018So....what is your rage exactly? I see you firmly and delu... moreWhat's my rage? Let's see.
              1. Starting from Xperia Z2 up to the latest XZ premium. They have a prototype AR effect app. Instead of improving the designs. They just didn't care about improving it at all! Even up to now. Xperia XZ premium's dual camera setup is already enough for android ARCore. How come Sony hasn't improved and expand AR technology until apple's ARkit?
              2. Even until now. Sony device isn't daydream capable. If they have Playstation VR for their sony playstation. How come they never design a daydream capable smartphone?
              3. There was Sony's MICRO-LED display. How come they never implemented that screen technology to the mobile phone?
              4. Even until now. Sony has been making giant 6 inch smartphones. How come they never design a 4,000mah to 5,000mah battery smartphone?
              5. This flagship model has a 6GB of ram. How come they never increased the capacity to 128GB to 256GB of internal storage?
              6. If you are gonna offer a product with a "PREMIUM" name in it. The contents and design should be premium. In this years model. The only premium is the 4k resolution, RGB-IR dual camera, the 5.8 inch display, wireless charging, and the dynamic vibration system. Where's the bigger internal storage, the micro-LED display, the bigger battery capacity, the ARCore, The Daydream VR, and even the bixby like software?
              7. The last tablet that sony has released is the Xperia Z4 tablet. After that. They've stopped making tablets! And just so you know, even if its short. There are still some people who love using android tablets. Only samsung, lenovo, acer, asus, and xiaomi is doing the tablet production. Where's the part from sony?
              8. What's the reason for sony to join the back fingerprint scanner? Their last years XZ premium's Fingerprint scanner is placed on the side of the phone. Moving the FPS on the back means you need to lift your phone to unlock the FPS.(P.S. I don't use FPS because of my sweaty hands. I use Pin codes to unlock my phone)
              9. Ever since Xperia Z2. The speakers of the xperia has been a generic stereo speakers. How come they never included in the design of the xperia speakers like the Dolby Atmos Stereo Speaker system instead of this Dynamic Vibration System?
              10. Playstation Vita is now a dead console since sony has stopped making physical PS Vita in 2019.
              https://www.engadget.com/2018/05/16/rip-sony-physical-vita-games/
              Because of the popularity of Nintendo Switch. Sony has forgot to design and make a counterpart for the nintendo switch. Since sony owns both markets. How come they never made a "Xperia Playstation". Where an xperia device can be docked with a controllers similar to vita. And has platform dock with HDMI so you can dock the xperia phone in there and play games on a bigger screen while the controller is in your hands? And from the design itself. It can play both android and playstation portable games! This could have been known as an ultimate portable playstation with smartphone capability!
              11. When it comes to smarphone designs and technological advance. Sony is the slowest to get them all! Imagine, this is the only time of the year which sony has released dual camera, and a wireless charging pad! While other smartphones have those technologies already.
              12. This years design model of the 2018 xperia smartphones looks like crap! Why did they have to move the camera in the middle of the back and the fingerprint scanner below the middle of the smartphone? Just so you know. Since you don't use a case at all. If you dropped your phone on the floor while the screen is facing on you. Did you know that the fingerprint scanner, the camera lens, or even the autofocus sensor may be damage since the position of those hardpoints are so obvious?
              And what's even worst? Why should both the XZ2 and the XZ2 premium be priced at $800 if the design is worst? This should've been atleast $400! Not $800!

                Tann Hauser, 22 May 2018So....what is your rage exactly? I see you firmly and delu... moreMany people like Bixby and edged screens. Its an option. You realize that Bixby can be turned off and Google Assistant used instead or permanently switched off. Edged screens are useful for many people. But don’t fret, Sony will eventually catch up and copy this technology.

                You used to say the 4GB ram was useless, but Sony copied. You used to say that rear fingerprint button was useless, but Sony copied. You used to say that dual cameras were useless, but Sony copied.

                The big difference between Sony and Samsung is that most of Sonys add ons are gimmicks. Such as the 4K screen that the human eye can’t even differenate from 1K screen. You don’t like Dax, then don’t use it, some people like Dax.

                Or spend more money on overpriced Sony toys ? Xperia Ear for approx. $200 ? or buy overpriced Sony Xperia Touch or Remote Play.

                Samsung is the leader in Android phones. Although Chinese makers have kinda caught up now, such as Huawai etc. And Sony is number 12/13 in Android popularity and sales now. That’s enough proof alone. And don’t start crying that Sony doesn’t advertise enough. Sony advertises world wide on TV, major sports events, even some schools.

                Its your choice to support Sony phones. A company that has NO International warranty, no real technical support, constant software bugs, even after updates, lacks so many 2018 basic features etc.

                I want a phone that gives me all the options, true International warranty, latest technology, etc, etc. Sony can’t provide that, but many other brands can.

                    I see you firmly and delusionaly believe Samsung devices are the smartphones users actually need.
                    Everyone needs Bixby and edged screens alright...

                    anything Samsung comes up with is what you obviously need, and anything Sony comes up with is not needed by anyone, at least in your book....

                    So get yourself a Samsung device, if you havent already.
                    Praise its "usefull features" on their there page all you want.
                    Us here find most of it unusefull and just marketing talk.

                    Stuff like Dax...
                    are not features of a phone, but addons that have to be paid...you get nothing out of "Dax feature" with the phone alone.
                    And anyways its just a bumped up res bigscreen android UI mode, that Xperia Z4 tab first introduced, and LeenaOS (available to anyone in need of Dax like feat) copied with its app in 2016,
                    and Sammy, as always of course, copied in 2017, and marketed it to heaven and above, so "awed with features" people like you could rubb it into other peoples noses everywhere....
                    Guess what? You want Dex experience? Get any chep android phone, install free LeenaOS UI app of old, buy a 15 buck wireless android to TV deck, attach keyboard and mouse....voila!
                    There.... you just spared extra 600+200 buck for Sammy marketed "awe feature".

                    And anyways....
                    Maybe Xperia users find Xperia Ear or Xperia Touch or Remote Play more usefull.

                    And stop crapping on and on about what you think Sony or its users actually need...
                    Cause thats pretty.. egoistic of you.

                    Which, returns us to the first question...
                    What is exactly your rage with Sony?

                    Is it maybe that its not making Samsung devices?

                      Foxtrot2Novmbr, 21 May 2018"Is this how you provide an evidence? And even ask me to co... more"If you have this proof. How come you didn't post it on sony vendor stores? Does a normal user know this? NO!"
                      I just reply to bashers, other than that is not my consideration, I am a Xperia user not a promoter please.

                      "https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.androidauthorit­­y.com/xperia-z2-10-meter-water-416480/amp/"­
                      Yes, That unit survived the plunged into the deep of more than 10 meters. But let me remind you that the Z2 was plunged into the salt water without even using the camera to take photos. And its external components have received water damage. So If you can't use the xperia underwater to take photos or videos in it. Then its no match for the samsung."
                      First of all you don't read the whole sentence, it said:" SIX WEEKS LATER, a friend of his went scuba diving and was able to recover the device (Z2). While the handset has received external damage and its battery was out of juice, surprisingly it booted right up after being plugged in.

Either your comprehension fail or you want to misleading people, why don't you mention six weeks duration of immersion for the Z2 UNDER the SEA, it is over the limit but still survive. Why Samsung doesn't do the same thing to test it limit? I think just One day Samsung will fail in the immersion lol.

                      "Was this camera technology needed by anyone? NO!"
                      Samsung copy Super slow motion with only 720p(less clear) from Sony but you said it is no needed by everyone. While Sony bring 1080p(more clear) super slow motion and allows Predictive Capture to take pictures before you even press the camera button for save some missed images, it is really practical and very useful, while Samsung still behind Sony! About 3D Creator, at first I am not interested but later I find it is useful to capture the every freeform and save into 3D file for memories it is quite nice and futuristic, scanned 3D images can also use for AR photo capturing and video recording the development will bring the 3D images into the ID for gamer account. You can even scan your toys(anything) for memories and share with friends or 3D printing. Dynamic Vibration system algorithm the sound to perform every beat it is interesting, I think incoming call the phone can also vibrate according the ringtone pulses.
                      FYI, since the Xperia Z2 already have dual front firing stereo speakers and for XZ2 has the loudest dual front firing stereo speakers, even your Xperia Z5 premium also has dual front firing stereo speakers why you don't know?! Are you a fake Z5 premium user?

                      "Accuweather requires a constant connection to the internet. Like I said before. If the powerlines are disabled and the transmission lines for the smartphones are out. How can the Accuweather receive the weather updates? How can it warn the user to find a strong shelter if the only thing it does is to predict weather patterns? Let me remind you that weather changes its pattern."
                      The weather change and area, the Accuweather allow user turn on location for precision the user's location while the Radio can only provide the summarized area, remember you have to bring your headphones all the time as an antenna.

                      Yes the Samsung S6 update with glitches photo album, that's isn't functioning isn't pathetic!? While the beta can testing by user and let user feedback and develop for better improvement to the release version.

                      " No smartphone is invulnerable to crashes! Even on the part of sony! I even have the proof that Sony UI"
                      I don't believe you and even won't believe a One Time Poster, he/she could have spread fake news or maybe an ignorant/mal user.

The Sony adopt the quality solution that won't broken the battery and it is outstanding!

                        While the sealant for back cover and front display is still fine temporary because you can blow with hot air to remove it, but the sealed battery you can not blow with hot air to remove it, do you understand the sealed battery must have more quality designs!

Samsung doesn't use some super glue that permanently seals the battery to the frame of the phone. It's easy to remove, and original replacement batteries will come with the glue preinstalled, so it's not really a hassle. Sony's method is also fine, although it wastes a little internal space and adds weight.

                          If you think glue is such a terrible idea, please enlighten how Sony sticks the front and rear glass of the XZ2 to its frame. Some sort of magic? Screws?

I don't see that as a problem if it improves the durability of the smartphone. Having a protection for your smartphone is better than nothing!

                            "Predictive Capture is very useful that Samsung never have the technology to fully use the stacked Dram camera sensor ability. the 1080p super slow motion video is more quality than 720p super slow motion video." Was this camera technology needed by anyone? NO! Even that slow motion video at 1080p. Was that even needed? Look at all those people who posted a lot of things on social media. Was the slow motion recording a Hit? NO!
                            "The 3D Creator can apply to the AR and it has 4 types scanning methods Samsung still never done with this advanced creation!" And you think that the 3D creator app was needed by anyone? NO! What's the other use of having this app other than making 3d faces? Nothing!
                            "Dynamic Vibration on a smartphone is more senses to immerse into the game and shows this is unique a Sony features as we know the PS4 gaming". Does anyone like vibrations on their smartphones when playing games? NO! Wanna watch a video which vibrates the unit on a specific audio? NO! What people wanted is a smartphone with a stereo speakers! I can already predict that most of the time the dynamic vibration system will be disabled by the user as not only its annoying. But it also eats a lot of battery.
                            "It also a calamities prediction so the Accocuweather already done it and you have plugin the headphone each time you listen the radio don't you feel sluggish?" Accuweather requires a constant connection to the internet. Like I said before. If the powerlines are disabled and the transmission lines for the smartphones are out. How can the Accuweather receive the weather updates? How can it warn the user to find a strong shelter if the only thing it does is to predict weather patterns? Let me remind you that weather changes its pattern.
                            "Fortunately the news can be received from every WiFi that I can connected, but I still don't listen radio as personal preference". How can a WIFI work if the router itself isn't working because the power is out?
                            "A beta tester can find and assist the development to the greater user experience, Samsung missed it." LOL!!!!!!! Is that what majority of android users want? To assist the development to the greater user experience? YOUR excuse is beyond PATHETIC! A user wants a FUNCTIONING smartphone with NO system GLITCHES! And wouldn't join the BETA program if the user can't use the smartphones NORMALLY! My reasoning accounts to more than 80% to 90% of smartphone users! You and the beta users accounts to 5% to 10% only because YOU DON'T WANNA USE YOUR SMARTPHONES NORMALLY!

                            "While Sony keep moving forward on beta for a better user experience. Sony UI is lightweight then it has the minimal crash compared to Samsung even it is in beta version." No smartphone is invulnerable to crashes! Even on the part of sony! I even have the proof that Sony UI crashes:

                              because i found many cases where the official service center is much worse than 3rd party service center.

                                Everything should practically improved like Sony done, Samsung still never learned.

                                Gimmick vs Practical = Samsung vs Sony.

And even ask me to compare and select the camera tools myself? LOL! Better provide me with other evidences than this because this is a camera test benchmarks!"
                                  Here you are:
                                  https://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType=5&idPhone1=9081&idPhone2=8966&idPhone3=9106
                                  The Samsung and Huawei wipe off the details and losses the color.

                                  " Are you scared of having a hard metal case on your smartphones? Hardcase smartphones were invented so that the smartphone may survive a drop! Most users do this so that their smartphones last longer."
                                  Yes... you can shield it on and gain again the phone size, how big is the phone you want just covered more protection for a less quality product.

                                  " Then prove it to me that those commercial ads are used to brain wash people. I have a cousin sister who has a galaxy note 8. And She was able to use it to record a video from the note 8 under water! This proves the water superiority of the samsung galaxy devices."
                                  long time ago....Xperia Z2 already done with this news. Here you're:
                                  https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.androidauthority.com/xperia-z2-10-meter-water-416480/amp/

                                  " For the past 3 years. Samsung has released and innovate a lot of new stuff for the smartphone technology. Meanwhile, After Xperia Z5 up to last years Xperia XZ premium. Was there any innovative stuff that sony has released other than their 960FPS camera? None!... "
                                  Predictive Capture is very useful that Samsung never have the technology to fully use the stacked Dram camera sensor ability. the 1080p super slow motion video is more quality than 720p super slow motion video. The 3D Creator can apply to the AR and it has 4 types scanning methods Samsung still never done with this advanced creation! Dynamic Vibration on a smartphone is more senses to immerse into the game and shows this is unique a Sony features as we know the PS4 gaming. Samsung doesn't have 4K HDR display and doesn't have SDR display upscaling to HDR display technology. Sony have LDAC and DSEE HX and Clearbass etc for better audio playback. XZ Premium even come with 4x4 MIMO antenna and 1GB download speed. Sony adopt the trustworthy Qnovo battery charging technology and the Xperia XZ2 sealed battery designs is removable easily while Samsung newest flagships still glue the battery on the phone, so pathetic lol!

                                  "... The galaxy S7 was already released. And when did I compare the S7 to the XZ premium ? Did I even mentioned that device comparion when it comes to battery life on this comment section?"
                                  I know you state that you have the Xperia Z5 premium but I am state that you don't have Xperia XZ Premium so we can only refer to Gsmarena's battery test, because an amateur reviews can bias with ignorant usages.

                                  " I only used that when there's a report regarding upcoming calamities and the aftermath."
                                  It also a calamities prediction so the Accuweather already done it and you have plugin the headphone each time you listen the radio don't you feel sluggish?
                                  "Tell me, If you own a sony device. How can you get updates to the latest news report if it has no radio? How can you watch or listen to a news report if the transmission lines for the 3G/4G lte has been cut off. And the power lines are snapped?"
                                  Fortunately the news can be received from every WiFi that I can connected, but I still don't listen radio as personal preference.

                                  " Besides that. How can an android P beta tester enjoy using their android O beta devices if the apps doesn't work properly on android P since its still a beta OS? From a geek standpoint. Can an app work properly on a beta emulator with bugs, and glitches?"
                                  A beta tester can find and assist the development to the greater user experience, Samsung missed it. While Sony keep moving forward on beta for a better user experience. Sony UI is lightweight then it has the minimal crash compared to Samsung even it is in beta version.

                                      Why Sony adopted the rear mounted fingerprint reader? Needs another hole on the case, and horrible for my fingers. I own an XZ, side fingerprint reader is perfect.

                                        As soon as there is an available FM radio, I will buy such a phone, so far I have z1 compact with a faulty battery.
