anu97awesome, 21 Nov 2015I do say Sony is best but for gaming performance I did sugg... moreYes but the question was about whether the device is any good, my advice was seek out as impartial an opinion as possible in order to answer that question.

Yes user experience is important, very much so, but only if that user can give their impression of a device based on their own impartial experience. The majority of the fanboys on this thread cannot do that, they love Sony too much (by their own admission) as such their own user opinions are tainted by bias and not all that reliable.

The person who asked this question might as well just go into a Sony store and as 'is the Z5 any good?' They would get much the same answer as they would form the fanboys, but is it an impartially honest answer???

Am genuinely sorry you don't see this, but it seems there is little I can do about it. Had I simply answered the question with the line "Z5 is the best because I love Sony!" I could have saved myself all the childish abuse you lot are levelling at me.

    Will Sony z5 get Android M soon? Or early next year? Or in the most weird time in February?

                      You know nothing about me at all, and yet feel that you can make such general claims about me.

                      Now you've made a statement about me, please prove it?

                              You are obviously ignorant and can't see the bigger picture, what's going on behind the act. Your opinion is as valid as an apples user who claims that iphone is better just because it's an iphone. But I forgot.. I'm the paranoid here..

                              Seriously -_-

                                [deleted post]Like I said Josephlei, watch the response,

                                As you can see, abuse is a given here if you don't tow the "Sony is Best" line. And any opinions that are pro Sony are genuine, any that are against Sony in any way are because the person is either a troll or somehow has it in for Sony.

                                I can't compete with that kind of delusional reasoning.

                                Just make up your own mind.

                                  Lex79, 21 Nov 2015Take a look at the link: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xp... moreTry and think "what kind of person you are""
                                  You lack actual experience in "fanastic SONY Z5"
                                  You are brainwashed by reviews....some reviews are pointless and some are samsung paytroll....
                                  You say repeatly production process which has nothing at all to do with the SONY USERS because SONY is the reliable tect giant
                                  UNLIKE samsung
                                  For instant SONY use one SoC forone kind of SONY phone
                                  "But samsung use various SoC and strange names with same poor quality phones
                                  WE HAVE NO idea to learn the production of coffee BUT we taste the finess of coffee
                                  For instant SONY!
                                  So tell us the SONY Z5's real experiences but you NEED to BUY SONY Z5:)

                                    very good phone.i am a business man and really needed a dual Sim flagship...couldn't get one,so i was with my iphone 5 and samsung s6edge...and then this z5 dual came out..GRABBED ONE IMMEDIATELY-AND Sony really impressed me..after using for some days-i really want to say the following -
                                    1.sony may not be as popular as iphone and samsung,but z5 is the best phone on earth.yeah i used samsung and apple for the better part of my life but was never truly satisfied.
                                    2.z5 has the best camera.more so after the CAMERA V2.0 UPDATE THAT ADDS SWITCHABLE PLANES..THE PERFORMANCE OF THE CAMERA IS AWE-INSPIRING IN auto mode.
                                    3.was grappling with low battery life of s6 and ip5..2 days on z5 advert is overblown BUT I GET THROUGH A FULL DAY AND STILL HAVE 10% THE NEXT MORNING.S6 LASTED HALF A DAY.
                                    4.LAGGY UI OF TOUCH WIZ(i only realised how laggy samsung was afterusing z5.the app opening times,multitasking,and animation are buttery smooth in z5dual)
                                    5.you tube streaming is a treat owing to the great stereo speakers...
                                    6.AND FINALLY IT DOESN'T OVERHEAT.I WILL TELL YOU WHAT GUYS-MY S6 EDGE OVERHEATS WHEN MY LITTLE DAUGHTER PLAYS SUBWAY SURFER FOR A HOUR WITH MOBILE DATA ON ) .not so with z5...it doesn't overheat,runs smooth AND SHE HERSELF TELLS-THISNEW PHONE FEELS GOOD in hands as compared to your previous one.

                                        http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z5_premium_teardown_reveals_a_dual_heat_pipe-news-13865.php

                                        There right in the centre of those heatpipes and covered in thermal gel, you'll see the 810 SOC.

                                        They pipes are to move the heat away from it, 4K recording just pushes cpu and isp harder thus generating more heat, as does gaming, benchmarking and pretty much any intensive application.

                                        So it's the 810 itself that is the source of the heat, this is simply the point I am trying to make, why are you all getting so defensive over it, really?
