AnonD-664474, 30 Apr 2017U better try one. At least Sony's features are all polished unlike Samsung. That Bixby Babyboy... moreFunny- I don't even like Samsung, and agree on everything you just said.
But Sony phones are still buggy, overpriced, and the cameras are mediocre, especially when the phones use top-of-the-line sensors and come from a company that makes cameras.
there is quality smooth and beauty ui no lag no bug fast updating and other

And still makes... morein my country i see alot of sony service centre even
local brands uses their service centre, probably fixing their bad reputation on after sales. i dont see other brands service centre just stores that sells device.

They should sell their mobile division to Chinese, it surely collapse.
AnonF-85937, 30 Apr 2017XZ Premium offers nothing over the S8+ except the slo-mo video that can only done for a few se... moreYou might be one-sided actually
S8+ over XZ Premium
-more powerful SoC (at least the Exynos 8895 version)
-larger battery (to power a larger screen, but AMOLED technology does help it)
-more features (Bixby, DeX, Two Accounts For 1 app, Wireless Charging, Samsung Pay, etc.)
-more flashy look (at least to the majority)
-bezel size (don't really want to count this, but OK)
-better low light camera (if you leave it in Auto, 'cause Manual Mode battle is a different story)
-Iris Scanner (not perfect, but worth noting)
-comes with more stuff (like some adapters and AKG earphones)
-better battery life (probably)
XZ Premium over S8+
-better integrated software (Sony has always been known for "better than Google" OS)
-higher screen resolution (4K HDR vs 2K HDR, but sAMOLED is more HDR in terms of blacks)
-longer software support (Xperia Z2 from JellyBean to Marshmallow was supported)
-better Fingerprint Scanner location (there can't be any better location than on the side where your thumb rests)
-more capable camera (960fps vs 240fps Slow Motion, not even a contest)
-better daylight camera (19mp is more beneficial at this situation)
-better front camera ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jF1ruG79SCU&t=4s - there you go)
-better performance (XZs can even beat the S8+: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0b6oxPeJas8)
-faster charging (XZP supports QC3.0, probably 4.0 too, while S8+ doesn't even do 3.0)
-healthier battery (Qnovo Adaptive Charging prevents the battery from loosing capacity for years)
-better sound (both audio jack and speakers)
-dedicated camera shortcut key (everyone seemed to forget this)
-no such annoying simple issues (very important especially if you're paying something for a flagship)
Overall, it's a 12-9 in favor of Sony
Not to sound biased, but I'm always opened to be enlightened. Have a great day :D

And still makes profit. Is this what people are saying that will fall down soon?
Samsung and apple might get dethroned already even before Sony falls.LOL

Look back at the polls, users voted for the XZ Premium as the best phone of Q1 2017
MWC awarded the XZ Premium as the best smartphone of MWC 2017, regardless if the S8/S8+ would still be there
They aren't marketing or doing ads like Samsung, Apple, and other Chinese OEMs do
They have a few service centers
They aren't that much presented in stores
Yet people buy them, and Sony makes profit still from their mobile division alone.
Now the XZ Premium costs $50 cheaper than the S8, and $150 cheaper than the S8+ while offering a lot more things better other than bezel size, sAMOLED screen, and count the brand name if you also want
If you're asking us to admit something that hasn't proven yet, make sure that it'll be true in the future. Sony hasn't been that popular and kept doing these since 2015, then 2 years up to this day, they're still alive - even catching people's attention with their flagships.
Remember, Samsung/Apple/LG/HTC/Xiaomi phones won't be waterproof if Sony never started this
All flagships won't be able to do 4K Video Recording if Sony didn't start this
Mostly, your smartphone camera won't be as good as it is if Sony never sell their sensors to other manufacturers
I'm not saying Sony will surely comeback this year, but please stop assuming things that can't seem to be parallel on the current weather of the situation
Pathetic Sony fan boys here saying oh Sony is making a profit they are the best. Admit it fan boys, Sony has fallen. It barely made a small profit due to cutting costs, low Japanese yen and no marketing cost in United States, Sony Xperias are non existent. Nobody buys Sony.
