Alien , 09 Aug 2016For those of you complaining about the design: nobody is forcing you to buy Sony. You don't li... moreWell, its not about some favourite brand of theirs, or the design, or even the price...its just...
Pure brainless Sony hate....
Some of them hate anything Sony...
They will complain and bash anything, down to the last screw of a Sony phone if needed...
That kind of hate is so illogical, it just begs a solutive logical answer:
That there are indeed actually real people being payed to bash competitive products on the net.
For those of you complaining about the design: nobody is forcing you to buy Sony. You don't like, go for other brands. Nobody cares..
I never liked round corners on a phone. It makes the phone looks cheap in my opinion and it's all just a matter of taste. I agree the S7e has a cool design, but I would never buy it. It's just not my type of design.
But you don't see me bashing sammy phones with hateful comments just cos I don't like their design.
Get a life or a Chinese phone and stop spamming Sony articles just cos you want others to have the same brand as you. You're pathetic!
Anonymous, 09 Aug 2016Foolish comment. The Z5 and Z5P had a metal frame.no. it is polycarbonate (plastic) frame.
Avan Dr, 09 Aug 2016That boxy design, with flat top and bottom, and that bottom window.
Its like king size blue... moreThats why its not meant for you ;p
mkara, 09 Aug 2016Sony design getting worse and worse in time. Screen to body ratio will reach 50% soon.That boxy design, with flat top and bottom, and that bottom window.
Its like king size blue cigarrette pack.
Anonymous, 09 Aug 2016real metal is better than fake metal (read: polycarbonate colored like a metal).Read:
metal back covered with polycarbonte film to make it more flexible as to prevent denting in of metal. Its a smarter solution than metal only, and definitely smarter than glass.
Dig it?
is Sony stop making waterproof smartphone?
Anonymous, 09 Aug 2016plastic frame and plastic easily scratch-able lens on z5.
plastic frame again on X performanceFoolish comment.
The Z5 and Z5P had a metal frame.
Tann Hauser, 09 Aug 2016I believe its actually geting smarter and smarter by every itteration.
We are talking about ... moreCompared to the Z5 series the Xperia XR looks like an ugly slab of brick.
Don't get me wrong, I do like Sony, but this design is step backwards from the previous Xperia Z phones. The leaked Xperia XR design is somewhat similar to a power bank.
Tann Hauser, 09 Aug 2016No sh*t Sherlock! Polycarbonate= advanced carbonated plastic, not simple plastic. Just as go... morereal metal is better than fake metal (read: polycarbonate colored like a metal).

We are talking about "smart" phones afterall

Polycarbonate= advanced carbonated plastic, not simple plastic.
Just as gorilla glass, and simple glass.
If I said todays phones use just glass, not enhanced glass, I d be considered an id*ot, wouldnt I? ;-)
mkara, 09 Aug 2016Sony design getting worse and worse in time. Screen to body ratio will reach 50% soon.And batteries will be about 1000 mAh with the 50 % screen-to-body ratio. And of course, the phones will keep overheating due to the design and parts falling off by themselves plus glasses keep self-cracking. Another beautiful "Sony user experience" -story waiting to happen. :-)
Anonymous, 09 Aug 2016plastic frame and plastic easily scratch-able lens on z5. plastic frame again on X performanceDon't forget the camera units which happen to automatically pop-out from your burning hot M4 Aqua, remember to be gentle while forcing it back into it's place to get the camera working and beware of the gaps near cameras and displays like on Z2. :) This is the famous Sony-quality.
Tann Hauser, 09 Aug 2016Hi avand, I really have no need to discuss anything with you as you ve proven in the past that... morePolycarbonates are a group of thermoplastic polymers containing carbonate groups in their chemical structures.
A thermoplastic, or thermosoftening plastic, is a plastic material.
Polycarbonate = plastic
Sony design getting worse and worse in time. Screen to body ratio will reach 50% soon.
Oh yes, this looks like the quality phone I'll be turning to. My Xperia Z2 is on its last legs, it has had a long joyful run. Let's see if skipping 2 gens has been worth it !
