AnonD-250158, 20 May 2017Sony, this better get Android O.Its is based on Google's policy of whether the chipset (Snapdragon 810) is compatible with Android O. Don't need to beg for Sony, beg for Google to make this Z5' chip compatible with Android O

Ferry, 11 May 2017Is there a chance for Sony to fix the overheating problem?,... moreNo. Because it is based on the cooling of the heatpipes inside the phone. Update will not help it. Update will only help in some app improvements and software only, not the internals.

I have both x and Z5 so I wanted to clarify some things 1 both x and z5 get warm in normal usage but doesn't overheat except you use camera or playing heavy games though Z5 can toast your fingers over time 2 the difference between x and Z5 is 1: 4k 2: ip68 actually 4k is a useless thing and most of the people don't use it normally 3 z5 is made of glass but x is aluminum so it can't be cracked x selfie camera is much better than Z5 both are smooth my recommendation is x because of 1 aluminum body 2 better selfie and I think ip68 don't come in handy very often I never had a problem with rain or humidity using x. And something else battery life is slightly less than average

greenify isn't a battery saver at the core, it's a task killer. It also has several options to prolong battery life like aggressive doze. You do need to check it out.

Heard about Greenify long time ago. But I heard these battery saving apps actually doesn't help in saving battery life and it only helps in an incremental way.

Dont let the battery dry out completely. Yes you can charge it during the day and try to keep it in under 95% and over 5%. Don't let it go all the way up to 100%. So yeah you can charge it. Regular charges are better than one full charge for the battery.

I could not find the NFC notifications settings so I can stop this "NFC Storage" message bug. Where would I find it?
The 2-second processing of photo (+ shutter) is very slow for 2017 standards and vs an iPhone 6 or Galaxy S7 for that matter. Even by increasing the animations under Developer Options didn't helped at all. Any more suggestions?
As I'm typing this it's past 9pm where I live and (compared to yesterday) I did slightly less on my phone so maybe that's why it lasted this long compared to 6pm yesterday. it's down 3% so it may die down anytime.
As it has been 48 hours I still find the battery to be poor. Just read the website's re-review post-MM update and the battery life was actually cut in half which isn't confidence building. So, I need to ask: can I charge the battery halfway through the day so I can have enough juice till the evening say a lot later than 9pm?

Gino76, 29 Apr 2017It has been 24 hours now since i decided to buy a Z5. Here ... more1st of, congratulations. the frosted glass is certainly a nice touch but as i already said, get a luxurious case imo. it's speakers are alright yeah, although nowhere near as loud as my old sony ericsson w995 but they are passable.
The updates yeah, sony is quick with em and the fingerprint is quite fast after nougat update.
2nd, your bads. The headset message doesn't appear to me, although i get the headset icon when water gets in there. Just blow in it and it will be fine. You are lucky though, at marshmallow i had an alert that it was charging while underwater, it does funny things underwater.
nfc storage? never had that message. Maybe that's because i haven't use nfc so far i dunno, but check notifications and alerts for everything.
The camera never does this to me and I just checked it. It goes with the orientation im holding it.
The processing is quite fast for me really. it takes about 2 seconds at most even when i take 23mp photos, with the exception of hdr of course.
battery life is just ok to me. I keep it around 40-90% all the time though, and im careful when im far from home outside with what i do. I always keep in mind that. but snapdragon 810 is to blame here, it is a powerhungry one and yeah i get you. But try what i do, don't push the processor when you don't need to.
draining the battery to 0% and charging it to 100% is generally not good, although processors nowadays keep the batteries away from overcharging. nevertheless, always keep it around 5 to 95% for the battery to stay in good condition for longer, and once a month drain it to 0% and then charge it to 100% for battery calibration. remember the 5 to 95% rule and you'll be fine, with any phone on that matter.
Any more questions mate?
