4K powerhouse in your pocket

Verified Purchase:Yes
I don’t usually write reviews online but Sony deserves credit for this amazing phone! This is by far one of the most gorgeous looking devices I have owned in years! Sony sticked with its rectangular omni balance design formula but improved it with the introduction of loop design with Xperia XZ last fall. The XZ Premium improved that design formula by offering Premium build, construction and finish. Also, adding two unique world’s first technologies in a smartphone such as 4K HDR display and 960fps slow-motion video.
The phone is not perfect and no phone is perfect! but the pro outweighs the cons.
PROS:
• Classy and premium loop surface design
• 5.5" 4K HDR Display (vibrant and sharp display with impressive dynamic range on a smartphone)
• Snapdragon 835 (The phone is crazy fast! And I mean fast!)
• 13MP front facing camera
• 19MP rear motion eye camera with predictive capture and 960fps super slow-motion videos!
• Built-in digital noise cancellation for music (requires Sony DNC earbuds such as MDR-NC750)
• Two Front Stereo Speakers with S-Force surround
• Superior audio technologies (Hi-res audio support, DSEE HX, ClearAudio+, and LDAC)
• Near Stock Android experience
• Sony’s exclusive unique Multimedia apps (Music, Album and Movies)
• PS4 remote play (That feature really works!)
• Super-fast LTE (Tested on AT&T network)
• Dual SIM support (Nano SIM)
• Built in 64GB memory with expandable storage up to 256GB
• Smart Stamina mode
• No software gimmicks
CONS:
• Fingerprint reader is disabled in the US due to some mysterious reason. Luckily it is disabled by software so there is workaround to enable it without rooting the phone!
• Big Bezels? They are honestly not that big as some online reviews claims, never seen them complain about iPhone bezels, but this phone utilizes that space for two good features (dedicated front stereo speakers and the use of large front camera sensor)
• Front Stereo Speakers could be louder
• Super slow-motion mode is best used outdoors not indoors and only limited to 720p resolution. I understand its new and groundbreaking technology in a smartphone, hopefully next follow up model will have an improved low light shooting and 1080p resolution.
• Fingerprint magnet, expect to carry a microfiber cloth with you if you are not using a case to clean the phone from fingerprints.

Overall, Excellent effort by Sony! it’s one of the best purchases you can make this year. If you are in the market for a premium, powerful GSM smartphone with impressive audio/multimedia features and sharp unique shooter, look no farther!
