Guys, or Z5 users!
Help me: I want to switch phones (since no more updates and all) and I love my Z3 so much.
Is it worthy to switch to the Z5? I hear it's not much of an upgrade and there are some issues with it too. From what I've heard:
Uninspiring and unpredictable camera: Not much of an upgrade in image quality over the Z3, and sometimes it makes a better picture using 8MP mode, sometimes in 23MP mode
Worse screen: better color reproduction but worse brightness (only 90 nits at 50%??), bad viewing angles (greyish effect), and ghosting (mainly text when scrolling a page or text moving fast on the screen)
Worse battery life: maybe it's because of the CPU, but almost similar sized battery and only 43h or endurance rating from gsmarena? That seemy pretty low. My Z3 can go a full 3 days with one charge.
Performance is OK it seems, with some minor heating issues.
I'm considering a Oneplus 3 instead but 5.5 inches are too big I'm afraid. I would love to get a smaller flagship (5,2 is the sweet spot for me.)
I don't like the Xperia X line at all.
Thanks in advance.

Always chatting via messenger or other apps, sending photos etc. Casual internet browsing. Fingerprint scanner don't always work.
Because of the design phone is little bit slippery, but it's OK. About heating issues I don't really know. It gets hot while playing games but every phone does that. And maybe it's a little hotter than other phones while browsing. I have no problem with that.
It's a great phone and I really love it.

Hi guys/girls .. I have Xperia Z1 and planning to buy the new model Z5, but the thing is that some features on the Z1 are better than Z5. Don't know what to do. Who has the last model and what is his opinion about this telephone I will appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

As for Xperia Z5 owner after 2 month later.
Everything works fine,fastest,waterproof,shutter speed and connectivity.
But I got 2 minor problem here.
First,everyone know that Xperia always overheating while play the games.
Second,my MDR-NC750 turn on the Noise Canceling left side not working very well sometimes.
It has some static sound at the NC place.Anyone has any idea to solve it?
I had request to change NEW but still same.

Why did you changed endurance rating (battery life) of Z5? Until recently ER on gsm arena was 73h, and now 48h.
I believe that this 48h rating is wrong and that should be fixed.

chommie, 17 Aug 2016yeah sony xperia Z5 it's a nice phone, i like it, i love ... moreZ series are discontinued, you should buy xperia x it is awesome, i think you are just overstating about z5 camera or you are using auto mode, if you are camera boy then you should use manual settings, learn how to use it, for example use 23 mp only outside in daylight, switch the type of light source in the settings to have more accurate color.... Good luck.

yeah sony xperia Z5 it's a nice phone, i like it, i love it but the camera it's not good as to compare to xperia Z or even xperia U these 2 models are much better than Z5 by far you cannot compare the cameras of these 3 you will be embarrassed and disapointed with the Z5. the camera and flash are not good at all, but the rest it is fine, the processer, software version, speed, battery life, screen resolution its good, am using it because am a sony person if it was not for that would have give it my boy and use samsung or HTC hope Z6 will far much better than this crap am using SONY XPERIA Z5, if you do not improve guys am going for HTC or samung it is better than this junk or go back to use an iphone man for my status it is lol
