DenisXD, 18 Feb 2017Ok.. let me make this clear to you, you are wrong. How? Be... moreOk, let me make this clear back to you, you are 100% wrong. I doubt you own a Z5 and are just a fake user.

I have used this in max video and max photo settings. After about 3 mins in video mode a pop up heat warning message occurs, saying to shut down the device to avoid any damage. The processor is powerfull enough, but it overheats easily and the phone design and software also cause these problems.

4K recording is too much for this phone. So there is the truth. Your reply hqs no merit.

Next..!

    AnonD-481725, 18 Feb 2017No I am not joking right (-_-), you are just a sony hater.I own a Z5, so I can comment in a true and honest manner. Your comments are irrelevant as you don't own a Z5.

    It has a few irratating problems or design flaws. Battery life is bad, speaker volume is low, very slow boot up time and it does run hot under load. You can call it hot or very warm or whatever, but without doubt, it runs at much higher temps than other similar phones. Its uncomfortable in my hand at this temperature.

      Anonymous, 17 Feb 2017Your joking, right ?...Z5 ran like a toaster as I owned one... moreOk.. let me make this clear to you, you are wrong.
      How? Because I have a Z5 (her nickname: Zeta) and I had no overheating problems, not once even half a year ago that I got my girl, she runs smoothly without any lag except when I really push her by detecting people, forcing her gps and the processor to run at their limits. Even then I can also do other stuff alongside detecting, and trust me, if the phone really can pull this off it's really powerful. Yes the processor gets considerably warm, but never hot, never did.

      You claim z phones get hot since Z2, well yeah? I'm sorry but since Z2 we can record in 4k. And yeah 4k can make the phone considerably warm as well, but NO, never hot.

      So there is your answer. Z phones can get very warm.. if you push them!
      da.. this is the case with all smartphones I think, so yeah. Your claim is false.

But S7 with its own Exynos chip has no heat pipes and there is no heating problems. You comments make no sense.

                        AnonD-84936, 16 Feb 2017Hey guys planning to update my z5dual to nougat tomorrow,ha... moreI strongly advise you against updating your device. I've been reading a lot of stories, articles and the Sony forum itself and people have reported a buggy experience such as: battery drain while the phone is in idle, though it should be fixed now, there's still complaints about the speaker volume being too quiet during calls and during playing applications, contact's app itself is very sluggish.

                        I am in the UK and i have not yet received the update, but even if i'll get the update in a few weeks, i will not be updating for the above reasons and for the way Sony is handling the Z5 users.

                          Samsung now learned from Sony to use these pipes with their smartphones, and although they did use it with s7 series while their smartphones still suffered from overheating especially the disastrous 820 s7.

                            Hey guys planning to update my z5dual to nougat tomorrow,has anyone updated?any major bugs?this phone has been great so far dont get why people say it overheats.sometimes its hot like all phones, i found one solution is to turn off adaptive brightness it makes the phone hotter than usual esp here in africa on a hot day in full brightness:-) on the flipside it also cools in less than a sec.cant complain sony rocks.

I may change once it doesn't function well any more, most sony fans do the same, no wonder why sony doesn't sell so much XD.

I even loved the M8 I used before it really, thereby making Sony a king of 2015 Android phones. There's really not much to argue about it anyways. According to reviews, I even think there's not much difference between the Xperia Z5 and the Xperia XZ really so why even upgrade?

Yet, if never force closes. I open up over 15apps and at least 8 run internet and it never lags. If ur Z5 slightly gets slow just force shut down 2apps alone and I tell u dude! It breezes again. Been using this phone since last year and am telling u, it's the 1St phone since 2003 I been using phones that proves I can use a phone for over 2years cos it give me all I want. I used an HTC M8 before this and I must say wow! The Sony Z5 has done a wonderful Job! It's fingerprint is one of the best in the whole world and Anyone coming here to say rubbish about the Z5 is just a hater so pls stop trying to kill the company's name..... Oz

Usually water cooled. It's a careful balance as always: performance vs. heat dissipation and power consumption.

                                      Usually copper pipe cooling systems have water inside a copper envelope in order to cool electronics, changing from water to vapor and back, operating within a temperature range of 20°C to 150°C.

                                      All Sony Xperias since Z2 have heat pipes due to thermal heating problems in Sonys designs. This thermal heating problem still exists in the Sony XZ, but to a lesser extent. Sony copied this old technology and adapted it to its Xperia range. Lumia 950XL also used heat pipes with the disastrous overheating Spapdragon 810 chipset.

                                      Samsung has launched variant models of the Galaxy S7. North America (USA) uses Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 in Samsung S7 . The other version uses Samsung's 14nm Exynos 8890 and is for International markets. The model with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 solution uses heat-pipes. S7 with Exynos 8890 doesn't have or need heat pipes.
