Wtf sony
They should have kept the rectangle design of the XZ premium but reduced the bezels and added a fingerprint sensor to the US models. Of corse with all the new tech as well, like wireless charging and keeping the headphone jack. What a disappointment from Sony.
big bezels thick phone and an ugly copy of htc but it has the latest technology of removing the headphone jack YAYYYY SONY
Sony is always win SS these years
why people hate one company who remove headphone jack 😞
No jack skip this one
Not digging the back design.
This device looks bad on the screen and it doesent seems to do something special(the dinamic vibrating system is a BIG LOL).The back seems to be ugly and the camera seems to be a “sony like camera” with slow motion witch you dont use every day.After I ve seen the Samsung S9 at MWC I ve expected the competition to show something new but till now I was dissapointed.I hope that the new devices from LG and HTC to be much better because sony it seems they have made a mistake with this device and they will probably do what Htc did with the U11 plus and it will not help.
I am using the Sony XA1 and i am thinking for the upgrade! But still i am beside S9 and this beauty
what is wrong with japanese companies?!! .… they backward very fast .. mobile phones, cars, screens .. etc,
I think South Korea will replace Japan soon (if it hasn’t already) as technology leader
Sony, just give up srsly you are out of the game for a long time…
It doesn’t looks like Sony mobile
Looks like HTC, Huawei, Asus etc.!
Which app you used to get those wallpapers??
I dont get whats with the huge backlash against sony this time round. If sony didnt change their design language, they have ZERO chance of making any profits. There is ONLY a SMALL loyal fanbase in sony who will just buy whatever sony puts out despite the same old design of 7–8 years, but come on man, they need to change their design and their incremental upgrades arent enough to sway the market towards them.
Regarding the lack of headphone jack, it is postulated that the future lies WITHOUT headphone jack. Its a move forward! If youre not happy about it, you have 2 options. Either buy a quality bluetooth headphone so you’ll always enjoy quality music, or just buy the samsung s9. As simple as that.
All in all, i feel that its a good move for sony. And im a sony fan since the xperia z.
Audio centric company got rid of Headphone jack. Why they don’t provide good quality earphone along with phone like before. SONY yet to figure out how to make phone sleek & thin.
great„ time to buy Samsung or LG„ will back to choose Sony if Wireless Headphone already trend and there is a cheap and great Wireless headphone„ which as worth as wired headphone..
Eww?? WTF is SOny thinking, just stop making phones already, whoever is in charge of their designs needs to be thrown off a cliff.
Why is everyone so upset? The headphone jack isn’t anything new I’m not even surprised.
Why 1080p?
bye bye birdie
Does it support project treble?
R.I.P Sony
An ugly soap without headphone jack.
WORST SONY PHONE EVER!
Looking back to Xperia Arc design 😕😕
seeing this makes me want to get the Xperia XZ1 compact
So in 2018 95% of OEMs don’t support the headphone jack and people are still surprised by the lack of a headphone jack? You guys do know that as soon as Korean companies can sell their overpriced “AKG tuned headphones” as a package alongside their phones that it’s bye bye headphone jack too.
Pros:
- 4KHDR camera support

- High resolution audio support will turn any audio into something clean and crisp

- DSEE HX technology upconverts even compressed music to near studio quality
- Cleabass produces crisp and brilliant bass
- Comes packed with a sturdy and adjustable adapter that lets you charge and listen to music at the same time
- curved rear panel makes it far easier to hold and a lot more comfortable
- rear camera is now positioned for optimal photography conditions

Why the removal of the headphone jack doesn’t matter: Sony sells bluetooth headsets with a built in LDAC that will use the XZ2’s (and any Xperia phone’s) LDAC to stream straight to the headset, which supports a headphone jack, and has a built in speaker. The custom LDAC will produce higher sound quality than a standard phone with a headphone jack. Sony will also be bringing out new wireless headphones at lower prices, some with adaptive noise cancelling technology.
Still doubt this is a Sony comeback? Apple is ditching Samsung and LG to start buying screens from Sony. Chinese companies like Xiaomi, huawei etc. are bying their screens from sony. Even their amazing bezelless phones. This phone is already shaping up to be top 3 2018. And if Sony is keeping up with their streak of optimisation, this should also again be the fastest phone this year.
If you’re wondering why reviewers are loving this phone but you’re hating it. It’s because they see the inherent amazingness in this years revision. This is everything sony needed to do and more to once again get up there and compete with the big boys. Amazing work this year sony, can’t wait to upgrade from my XZP
Not to bash anyone but LG G2 from 2013 was as compact as this “compact” phone 5 years ago … If not more …
Guys did u already used the phone?
Wtf. I was so excited to finally see something great from Sony, and they removed the headphone jack. Damn it. Pass.
Heartbroken, Sony.
Where’d you get that Black Panther wallpaper?
Ironic isn’t it… they put a really sweet hi-def DAC in this phone — and then get rid of the headphone jack.
If this phone had a headphone jack, I’d buy it in a second!!
what about the Sony Xperia XZ2 premium?
Hoping for a Xperia XZ2 premium review…
I love Sony smartphone ❤️
