Is there any difference in performance between the Z5 and the Z5 Dual ?

Has the Z5 battery life (standby time, video playback, 3g calls, etc.) improved with Nougat 7.1.1? Or is it better to "trust" on the newer phones such as the Xperia X or XZ with their Qnovo tech?

AnonD-674391, 17 Aug 2017Wow ! It seems like you are a techy guy :D that's perfect. ... moreSony smartphones don't have heating issues. Heating up when using a camera to record is normal. SAMSUNG tries to cover up that problem with recording limitation, limits the recording time to a certain limit, while Sony does not. Sony smartphones record until it heats up and show warning message. If SAMSUNG didn't have any record time limit, wouldn't it be the same? Wouldn't it be have "heating" issues too? U gotta use your common senses before saying they have "heating" issues man

... moreWell Z3+ was a disaster in terms of heat management and it was criticised by many. It never saw many European stores either. It's not entirely Sony's fault though, Snapdragon 810 is the one to blame.
With Z5 Sony managed to keep the heat under control with dual heat pipes and thermal paste, but it gets warm. So no, these are rumours because Sony phones use to record 4k video until they get hot and can't record for longer, but that's a feature not a problem. You see all other phones have a limit in 4k recording. 5 or 10 minutes, Sony phones don't, you can record for much longer than just 10 minutes. For example Z5 can record for more than 40 minutes 4k footage :)
Only Sony phones can do this.

Hi, I am torn between XZ, X and Z5, upon viewing some of the comments, i saw that XZ is a bad choice while X and Z5 weighs in a tough match up. z5 was a flagship and X is midrange. So, tell me more what should i choose between X and z5?

All the news about a great camera, videos I've seen with camera samples, it being a flagship etc.
More importantly because it carries the Sony brand, because expensive Sony stuff = Quality and I've experienced it. Clear stereo, clear bass i used to enjoy with W995, amazing loud sound girl! So i knew that Z5 would be great, and it is.
I haven't regret my purchase since, and don't think i ever will.

I have only one issue with my Sony Xperia Z5, but not sure if its only my particular phone or its on all of them. Basically when I am watching a movie or doing something e.g. snapchat, when the phone get warm screen becomes darker even if I put the highest brightness it still reduces the brightness to a medium amount. Once I've put the phone on standby for a few minutes it gets back to normal. It gets really annoying when watching a movie the brightness just drop. Is this a feature in Sony phones and can I turn it off or does someone have an explanation? Thanks for any replies in advance.

I had my ex boyfriend's vodafone smart mini 2 for a while before I got Z5 though. My 6 year old W995 was dead so he gave me his 2ndary phone.
So I really don't have much experience with smartphones BUT, i know how to use one to it's potential.
