    XZ3 is faster than iPhone Xs Max in performance comparison, source :

      jrharbort, 24 Oct 2018The XZ2P's low light is unmatched, the XZ3P/XZ4P will only ... moreUnmatched eh? I like that! yeah on my thread on XDA that was confirmed too! lol

      Yeah I expect it to be 18:9 etc like you said. XZ2 P wasn't 18:9 b/c 845 can't handle 4K HDR in 18:9, only 16:9. But 855 will. So yes, all that is prob true, and what I'm hoping for next year.

      I like the OnePlus 6T, XZ3 P, and MAYBE S10+? MAYBE! lol

        anonymous, 24 Oct 2018might as well get the casual phone like the note 9 and iphone Xs.Mehh. No thanks lol

          XZ3 single camera win again!

                  Thanks again!

                  I've decided though that I'm gonna return my XZ3. The camera just isn't up to par like they say the XZ2 Premium's was. So I think I will just wait for the XZ3 Premium. Sony should've taken the super high ISO and dual lens setup of the XZ2 P and given it to the XZ3 with its OLED screen. But Sony messed up (again). lol So sadly, I am sending it back. I will be waiting (impatiently lol) though for the XZ3 Premium, which I assume will be THE phone to buy next year!

There's one more benefit I forgot to mention: Sony includes a Quick Charge/Power Delivery enabled charger with the Asia region phones as well, for added value.

                      XZ3 is available in Malaysia, imported from china with price tag of 745 USD, 6gb version. Probably can get with around 700 USD during 11.11 event. Meanwhile galayx note 9 128gb is 650 USD. So do not worry much about the price of android flagship. Just a few months and due to competition, it will be relatively affordable compare to iphone.

                        You ROCK jrh!!!! lol

                        I'll let you know what I do. Still deciding if I wanna keep XZ3 or not.

                          RockStar2005, 23 Oct 2018Wow! Yeah and my friend on XDA's phone he just said is the ... moreHe's correct. And VoLTE should be fine after flashing the U.S. ver. firmware. Here you go: https://www.sonymobile.com/hk/products/phones/xperia-xz3/specifications/

                            jrharbort, 23 Oct 2018H9493 is the only version with 6GB RAM. It wouldn't be the ... moreWow! Yeah and my friend on XDA's phone he just said is the same as mine, H8416. So 4 GBs.

                            It's sad that you seem more confident about the specs than Sony Mobile's chat reps are. lol But given like every site is saying the H9493 is the 6 GB version, then so be it!

                            Well what's that website then so I can see? The H9493 has VoLTE capability too right?

                            My friend on XDA (see link below) says his research has shown that flashing the U.S. firmware (which is for the single SIM H8416 he and I currently have) on the Dual SIM H9493 should yield NO issues other than that you can't use two SIM cards on the H9493 anymore. But that's fine cuz I only need one and MicroSD card. Thoughts?

                              RockStar2005, 23 Oct 2018Nice. Yeah but the one on 1shopis the H9493, which Sony... moreH9493 is the only version with 6GB RAM. It wouldn't be the first time Sony's English sites got the specs wrong, you have to check the TW/HK specific sites for more accurate info. H9493 is specific to the HK/TW region.

                                jrharbort, 23 Oct 2018Nah, no reason, the interface is still in English. In fact,... moreNice.

                                Yeah but the one on 1shopis the H9493, which Sony Mobile confirmed for me is actually has 4 GBs of RAM, not 6. I e-mailed 1shop about this as well, so we'll see what they say.

                                I have a friend on XDA who has the H9493 (I think.......asked him to reconfirm that just now), and I just asked him to confirm the amount of RAM too. I'll take HIS word above all else. lol

                                If it DOES have 6 GBs, I will prob return my H8416 U.S. version and buy the H9493 one off Amazon as well, and then flash the U.S. firmware on there b/c that is the only way to get VoLTE here per my XDA friend (that's what he had to do). Is the H9493 Asian or a UK version? So confusing!!!!! lol

                                  RockStar2005, 23 Oct 2018Hi jrh, Yeah totally. But how do you get your hands on ... moreNah, no reason, the interface is still in English. In fact, the Asian region variants have even less bloat. Not that Sony is known to have much. Check out 1shopmobile. it's listed for $759 there.

                                    [deleted post]I meant Taiwan and Hong Kong, specifically. They actually recently pulled out of Singapore and Thailand.

                                      jrharbort, 23 Oct 2018This is correct. This makes it all the more worth it to sim... moreHi jrh,

                                      Yeah totally. But how do you get your hands on it in the U.S.?? I looked around on Amazon and eBay and found nothing.

                                      Though I didn't try the foreign eBay sites.

                                      Also, if I get it I'd have to flash the U.S. firmware on it too. UGHHH!!!!!!! lol

                                        RockStar2005, 22 Oct 2018Per Sony Mobile U.S., all 3 models have the same radio bands!!This is correct. This makes it all the more worth it to simply import the Asian region model. It has more RAM, and it's cheaper. I'm sure a lot of other people also do this, and I wonder if Sony has figured out why their Asian region market seems to remain healthy.
