Correction: The display resolution is actually 2160x1080.
The new Sony XZ2 has a new design and finally trims down the bezels. Inside, it’s got Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 845 processor and a vibration motor that rumbles when you’re playing media or games. But will it be enough to make Sony a serious mobile contender again? Subscribe:

Disappointing design and no 3.5mm jack. Not for me.
The white looks terrible. The black looks actually pretty good, has stereo speakers and a great camera.
But no headphone jack? No thankyou! I thought Samsung, SONY and LG would lead the way and pioneer the jack in a mobile unit for audio enthusiasts and the general consumer.
Once again, greed has stopped SONY making an amazing device. This is a phone built by a board of CEOs who think they know more than the engineers and throw away the legacy of SONY in music.
I knew giving LDAC to Oreo for free was too good to be true. They had this in mind from the start!
Sony’s nice, but I just don’t like the UI
I have no idea what Sony is doing anymore…
Why everybody keeps saying “18by9 display“
It sounds so stupid!
Back of the phone looks like HTC…
Bye sony,hello s9
You presented false information
fingerprint scanner at the side and not able to use the fingerprint scanner is different.
very HTC indeed ! thought I was the only one who got that vibe
Didn’t like it at all, disppointed
No headphone jack! Nooooooo! No unique ergonomically placed finger print reader! Nooooo! This looks like a HTC U and U lost me as a customer I will buy a LG G6
Ugly
We liked the old design aesthetic. This is hideous.
Sad
Sony’s website says it’s 1080 by 2160, not 1440 by 2160.
Have used Sony’s Z3 compact, Z5, and currently using the XZs but this XZ2 is a disappointment. Damn you, Sony!
Sony hardly exist in world smartphone market…#crap
Everybody here is kind of funny. Hate in Sony new design and scream that they prefer the old one but i bet almost nobody bought their phones old or new…
Will Verizon get the XZ2???
Nice Bro..
GOOD JOB…
GOOD Video…
GOOD information…
sony never listen their customer.. why u so arogant 🙁
this is where i stop buying every Sony flagship phones. Im going to cherish the last one I have in my hands. Bye bye signature Sony design, byebye best fingerprint and poweron button, byebye everything i love about sony… this is so sad.
Sony should have kept the old “boxy” design tech reviewers like to bash.
The old design was unique, classy, and easy to hold with the flat sides.
Now the sony phones look like just another generic android phone.
I’d rather go for the Sony experia xa
Older Sony designs were better. Look at the Xperia Z5 premium, just wow.
Sony, Asus & HTC always try to follow Apple pricing. What they forget is Apple own OS. Apple ecosystem is very strong as a result Apple products are expensive. Finally both Sony & HTC realised their mistakes cos HTC U11 & Sony XZ2 has fair price.
Asus announce fairly priced real flagship phone , all thanks to Razer(gaming laptop competitor)
I’m pretty sure some of HTC design team join Sony.
Finger print reader at side instead of back is more comfortable & user friendly. Why the heck they messed up such brilliant idea. HTC & Sony is Audio king & they got rid of headphone jack. HTC Boomsound speaker is still unbeatable, but HTC got rid of it. No wonder these companies are failing year after year. Fact is Sony & HTC don’t care about consumer at all.
Wait, it has the USB C headphone adapter like HTC so why is everyone killing the device? Samsung trolls did the same thing when HTC had a hit on their hands…
Ugly back…no jack? Why? So disappointed
NO HEADPHONE JACK????
WTF!!!!!!
NO THANKS!
The ugliest smartphone of the year…
Had the xperia s, Z, Z1,Z3 and the Z5p. Always done me good have Sony. Was waiting for this phone but looking at it, I’ve gone for the S9+. Thing is, I’ve had it three days since the day of release in UK, and it’s already got a dead pixel!
So lucky for buying XZ premium… wouldn’t buy this one
Sonyyyyyyyy please take out samsung… japanese rise up
Why ppl obsessed with headphone jack.. everything is bluetooth now
it looks kind of thick, but it has a premium look when holding…
i liked the Monolithic, square, masculine shape of sony phones.. these look very generic…
Nói không fai mê tín . Mặc dù là fan sony nhưng xperia zx2 mặt sau thiết kế quá xấu
This is the ugliest phone of 2018. I’m disappointed
Few questions:Does the Sony XZ2 have that Sony click sound are you use the phone? I always like that sound. Also is there a notification LED light that blinks like the Samsung phones? And you can change the colors? Finally is there a always on display option like the Samsung’s have? Sony XZ2 or iPhone X?
Year after year they gave a design with big bezels and fingerprint magnets.???? 😌 😌 😌
Hey moron every glass phones are finger print magnets. Don’t know that then pls wipe off your specs and then take a look at other mobiles too. What a biased statement.
Sony headphone jack.…many of them could have bought if their was a headphone jack
Pretty sure 90 percent of the video he’s using the xz2 compact but he makes it sound like he’s using the full sized version??
I want to buy xz2 compact and I have a question: do you have (black or grey) side bars when watching youtube or when playing games?
Great
