Never expected any good reviews from US sites, where they seldom have Sony phones with discount from telecoms.
US is mostly comprising of fruity and sammy fans anyway.

Any good reviews are considered bonus.

Gotta love comments from random people in their comments section.

QUOTE:

=====

"Very bulky"
Aube is big enough that require more space, its a fact

"Portrait Mode not available at launch"
How this is a bad thing???


"Below-average battery life"
Im really sure than the XZ2P its on the average performance in b.l.

"Dated software experience"
It´s not more dated than the Google Pixel 2 XL rigtht now.

"Too expensive"
It is, but Samsung and Apple too, it should not be a problem, in fact ,this new hardware worth it

"No Verizon or Sprint support"
I really dont care about verizon or Sprint, this has nothing to do with the device itself in first place.

We know that Tom'sGuide's reviews are very shameless, but this one is hypocritical.

Guys, looking to pre-order, this will be my first ever pre-order at rrp price, I am a phone enthusiast (not super tech pro but I like experiencing the good of different brand flagship) and has swtich multiple flagships quite frequently, but those are all brand new condition secondhand mostly from mobile hardware at a deal price.

Currently settling on pixel 2 xl, love it so much as it is the best all rounder for me after testing most of the flagships nowadays, but I still have to part way with pixel because of my need for dual SIM.what do u guys think?

should i go for this?

It depends on what you like, since you did not mention any preference.

Some people go for design, others go for user experience, camera, battery life, etc.

I would think it have an interesting camera over XZ2, aside from the 4K display and bigger package.
Go play with the demo set to have a feel first.

Would be advisable to buy from known mobile shops at lower price if interested, unless you have discount from Sony shops.

Well, thanks for the reply and advise on this, i actually thought that i should have include my brief "feeling" about each major brand and flagship for you guys to understand my "preference".

Apple - Iphone 6+ & X - Great phone, utlimate fluidity, ecosystem doesnt suit me (freedom) & single Sim

Samsung - S8+, love the sleek design, software way better than last time, but dont like exynos processor (i wanted to use Google camera apk for pixel which requires Snapdragon), and software performance will deteriorate over time

LG - V10 & G5 - software is well optimized, wide angel camera is love but cant compare to standard nowadays, i quit because of bootloop.

Sony - XZ premium - fingerprint scanner need to wake phone only can use, overall great, but to me the network (data reception) wasnt really that good back then.

Huawei - Mate 9 pro & mate 10 pro - technically a beast, superior battery, but can still feel Kirin is lagging behind Snapdragon on gaming and also because the camera APK issues, and lastly, no wireless charging, slow to no android updates.

Oneplus - Didnt even bother to try because of Subpar camera, hence not flagship to me.

HTC - U11+ - another beast, all rounder, fluid, snapdragon too, quit because dont like the fact that HTC is not that famous and no wireless charging, not so premium to me.. (well this is on me, but i love them, really)

All the above phone suffer Bluetooth Issues (Except LG & Apple), when i connected bluetooth audio device to the phone, 3 different earpiece and one megaboom, very often the music will still play from the phone although device is connected, googled a million times but no solution to date (restarting phone will solve the problem for the next connection, after few connection, the problem will come back, definitely not a hardware issue)


Pixel 2 XL - All rounder, fluidity after Apple, HTC catching up, clean UI, every minimal thing is perfect, feel premium too, i actually thought i will stay put with Google and bought G5 as my spare, but gosh, i really cant stand single sim especially when i travel

Overall, i love HTC, Sony & Google

Why XZ2 premium : all the specs tick the boxes, second fastest android updates after Google, and yeah basically have my eyes on them since they announced.

Yeap i know i can wait for this phone to be available again from Mobilehardware, but i am just so eager to get my hands on it.. hahaha..

Sorry for the lengthy post.

Not as much experience with other phones other than Samsung, Sony and HTC. Am using the U11+ and it is a fantastic phone other than the crap software and security updates. Was looking so forward to getting the XZ2 Premium but Sony is so foolish to offer such a premium phone with just 64GB. Had to pass because of this. Need at least 128gb and the second sim for my Malaysian sim. Don't want to keep swapping the SD card in and out. Hope the Pixel 3 XL has at least dual sim but that is wishful thinking.
