Xperia Z5 Premium - World's first 4K display smartphone

[akmori]

Is it stated anywhere got free tempered glass? Or only after confirmation?

Where to hoot nice back screen prot? Chrome back is fingerprint magnet

if you are a xperia user. Run the Xperia Lounge app, click on the Z5P listing on your phone and pass it to the staff. The staff will key in some code to order your free tempered glass along with Z5P. Bugis only got gold in display. Think Chrome will be fingerprint magnet but I guess it'll be ok for me since I'll be wiping it with water if it's smudgy.

Tried the gold one at Bugis. Cant really tell if its a 4k screen lol. Phone is not that big and pretty alright to use one handed.

Theres a slight delay when viewing photos, might be due to the rendering in 4k so its slower than Z5.

I think Sony design is always longer at top and bottom instead of wider at the sides like some other brands.

This will be easier to hold the phone in portrait mode.
But there will always be someone nitpicking on the bezels.

Any idea of z5 premium has the Matt green color like z5 standard? Really love that color but I don't want my screen to be only 1080 lol

Saw the demo set at bugis tempted to order but tell myself to wait for telco set since I have a contract already due to recontract new phone

Unlikely especially because Premium will not be in matt colors. All the 3 colours are chrome and shiny.

under the column of "form factor":
The Xperia Z5 Premium measures 6.08 x 2.99 x 0.31 inches, or 154.4 x 76 x 7.9 mm, which makes it smaller and thinner than the iPhone 6s Plus that measures 6.23 x 3.07 x 0.29 inches, or 158.2 x 77.9 x 7.3 mm.

7.9mm is thinner than 7.3mm?

The bundled charger is not the quick charger.

Techtimes is written by idiots. The iPhone does not have full NFC, it's very limited.

Not sure what is Sony thinking. Put a normal charger as bundled. I have a chance to check out the phone just now. The display seems dim compare with iPhone and Samsung. Don't feel any wow factor to me. Tried the demo movie inside out, looked like have a lot of detail but the screen just too small to appreciate. As for the camera it tends to lag or freeze a moment when you snap picture. I tried on 8mp setting, slightly better but still not as smooth as iPhone and Samsung. Tried the video mode is quite good. The body of the phone is warm, so heavy user will always get the heat.

Played with the phone a second time over the weekend and I have to say that am bit disappointed with it. The items on the screen are not as sharp as a normal Z5 due to the upscaling from 1080p. I tried watching a 1080p movie on the phone and it looks kinda pixelated. Guess they have to redraw the icons in much higher res than the current ones in order to fit that 4K screen.

The UCH-10 is not a normal charger that usually comes bundled with the phone. It's a Quick Charger. I believe that if you bought the Z5P without the pre-order, you'll get the normal non-quick-charging charger.

Lol... Fast charger is about 20 plus buy outside is it worth at all pre order?

True, 3rd party quick-chargers might be cheaper than the UCH-10, but there's a risk that they might not charge as well as the UCH-10.
