I am not saying this phone's display is not 4K, but believing without enquiry is symptom of fanboys, not of aware customers.

If you want consumer rights then go ask Sony themselves & not here. Not like youre the one & only owner of this phone over the years & I haven't heard or it had been a major issue about it not displaying 4k in the years the phone has been out.
Not like Sony is false advertising their product when even they stated that 4k is only used on Media Playback unless it is forced to always be 4k by user via adb tweaks(no need root).

You can also try to crop part of the video using default, vlc, mx player,etc. 4k capable media players then check its properties. If it displays *x2160p then its 4k, if *x1080p 1080p since the app will crop based on the display resolution.
If still hysterical, just believe me & many XZ Premium users it plays 4k hdr videos unless the display got replaced by 3rd party.

You can see how more sharper or more pixels the XZP is displaying compared to 1080p phone only.

YouTube's stats for nerds only shows video's resolution, not display's. Even my other 1080p display phones show 2160p resolution on YouTube, so that's not reliable.

You can also check on Youtube, select/search 4k hdr 60fps etc video & choose 4k on preferred resolution. Go to Youtube Settings, General, Check stats for nerds, then while playing 4k Youtube Video Check Status, it should state what is the resolution of the display panel there & video resolution.

In one year it becomes completely inoperable as a phone: both microphone and sound dynamic stopped working, so service center's resolution was to replace motherboard.
So instead of cell phone I've got a tab of 6'' diagonal without sound features (just bluetooth connect sound speaker still works).
It's a shame for Sony to produce phone that becomes out of order in a year.

Have that phone for 5 years now.
Had many Xperias (P, Z2, M5), the XZ Premium, from far is the best, still fully functionnal, better than my actual professional SAMSUNG A50 crap.
Restarts sometimes for no reason, the only problem, ever. Camera, amazing. Fast at everything, still up to date, solid and scratch resistant.
I'm about to change for a Xperia 1 II, no fear that it will meet it's little brother the XZ.
