I had XZ2 premium but its screen burns in only after 3 months of usage and its glass back has hairline cracks even though I didn't drop it a single time. And then USBC port breaks. There are many issues to own a sony device. I bough S9 plus and not a single issue and very happy with it.

        Anonymous, 16 Dec 2018Guys, i just bought this phone, xz2 premium, android ver 8.... moreHey, i just did some tests on mine and i can explain what's going on : apparently sony won't let you manually increase the iso on the camera maybe from fear of burning the sensor or breaking something (people are stupid and pointing the sensor to the sun with this setting might burn the sensor or maybe cause other problems) so in manual mode the maximum iso available is 12800 from what i can tell BUT if you take pictures in auto and the ,,high sensitivity mode,, kicks in the iso goes up to 51200 iso depending on how dark it is and you can see this by taking several pictures in pitch dark area and looking at their properties.
        As for the video maybe it's the same deal but i can't tell since the properties of the file on the phone doesn't show the iso but you can take a video in pitch black conditions and transfer it to a pc and check for yourself also there is no pro mode for video just auto so you can't change the iso as you please. Hope this explanation helps and all i can say is that i compared this camera against a p20pro and a mate20pro plus an iphone and it bested them in most cases especially in low light conditions so just enjoy the phone and use the camera as it because it's a great camera overall.

This is more than enough for a normal consumer like me that isn't a photographer and has a regular pc to download the pictures and videos i take on an hdd or just put them on the cloud, i got a 256GB sd card with some 4K hdr movies on it in case i'm bored wherever i go either on vacation or just around town, i actually wrecked my S8 headphone jack because of my job (it got filled with gunk and it eventually broke and was unusable so no HJ is a plus for me), i don't play games so the refresh rate would be useless (a welcomed feature but useless for me nonetheless). It comes down to personal preference and i personally love this device, it has a great screen, a battery that lasts me all day, some heft to it so i can feel it in my pocket and not wonder where it is plus it's loud AF when compared to other flagships like the P20pro, Mate20pro, iphone etc. Plus even if i don't take allot of pictures but when i need it this camera is the best camera on any phone i've seen including the above mentioned which i was able to compare it with and it took waaay better pictures even with less megapixels. It comes down to personal preference in the end plus i love that it has no notch and a flat screen since before this i had the samsung S8 and got annoyed with that screen in the long run, i don't particularly like curved screens or notches and amoled screen have too much color plus the burn in effect which i previously got on my S8 after 1 year of normal use which was another factor that pushed me towards this device.

I don't see why having a 4k display, night camera, and even having front facing speaker makes this thing a premium device. Meanwhile, other flagships offer more features that are more important than what the XZ2 premium has.

                      What memory card should I use? I've had this phone for a month and it won't recognize my old card which is a MicronJapan microsd XC 1. Customer support says I can use microsd XC 1. At this point, I wouldn't mind just buying a new card but if you can recommend one that actually works for your device. And did anyone else have this kind of issue?

                        Guys, i just bought this phone, xz2 premium, android ver 8.0.0, internet said that the iso for camera is 51200, but i try to search there no 51200, there's only 12800. And i cant find iso setting on video mode. Plz, need help

                          Got mine a few weeks back. Not sure why its getting crap reviews, I think its superb, all the foibles of its predecessor the XZ Premium fixed. Buttry smooth operation, very fast, AWESOME camera especially in low light and a phenomenal screen. It maybe Sony;s best kept secret with only EE in the UK currently offering it on contract, but its well worth getting, especially if you’re on EE and perhaps more so if you’re looking to upgrade from an older Z5 Prermium.

                                I got one. Yes it little heavy and big screen but I don't care. Important for me is big battery and clear picture even at night. Music is also quite nice. I can use headphone through cable included in box.
