sony is blowing everything out of the water right now. amazing innovative design and new camera features that are miles ahead of the competition. all in all in package that is completely unique to sony with its duel front facing speakes and water resistance design.

Damn, the Xperia XZ looks slick! I find the curvy design and the protruding camera lenses horrible looking on the iPhones and Samsung Galaxy phones.

That's what I'm saying...when SONY make the move! That's why I just love SONY!

Quad HD only really makes a difference on big tablets. Sony knows this which is why the Z4 tablet has Quad HD but their phones don't. Sony don't give you gimmicks that won't make a difference. Samsung do because fan boys and sheep love to brag about irrelevant numbers on a piece of paper.

Bought my Xperia z3 2 Years ago.. And you know what? Still 3gb ram quadcore with insane speed... And 21mp camera :-) going to upgrade for z5premium... With 4 k screen.. I bet there is a difference :-S

SONY always focuses on peoples comfort and necessity
but whereas SAMSUNG on the other hand focuses on shitty new features tat are never used

Smartphones doesn't interest me a lot, so i'm definitely not a fanboy, but that Sony just does look so much nicer than the Samsung. The Samsung looks old and cheap, mainly because of the round edges. The Sony looks premiun and real classy. I definitly go for the Sony.

Do Sony do any kind of mobile payment like apple/Samsung do?

[ionutstefu]

Do not buy sony, Because it warms up and you can literally fry the eggs on it, it goes damn hard in games if you don't have a cooler

[Willbeatu]

The fingerprint scanner on the sony might be queer for a left handed no? Maybe you can just use it with another finger? Also not sure about the 1080p display over a 1440p one. Might not be a huge difference on such a small display. Might want to wait for a speed/battery test, to see thermal throttling etc.

Why Zamzung looks like an egg? Very ugly damn crap. I love my Xperia XZ.

s7 edge is nicht gut! sony Xz ist besser.

[ultimategohan]

xz reminds me of old nokia phones, its too square

[hongtse]

does sony have as much bloatware as the galaxy s 7?

[nick]

[RB-pnoi]

sony is arrogant they don't learn from the competitors

[jonnygti]

Sony take ages with software updates, even longer than Samsung, so I'd never buy a Sony phone for that reason
