Yeah, well...as expected.
Jacking the jack was the greatest mistake, along with design changes (fp displacement) no fanbase ever asked for...
They lost the fanbase interest right there ( me included). Sales cut almost half, just as I predicted.
And XZ2 Premium wont help due to extreme price...
Return the damn jack, and side fp scanner, you fools.

    That's their design changes bringing fruits, no? The last Sony smartphone model that I like is already from last year... Bu then again - their previous design was in today world quite unique. Now it's just another tree in a forest - can you really tell a difference between all these lookalike phones from few meters?

      Sony's financial report is starting to look like HTC's.

          Sony Xperia FOREVER, 31 Jul 2018unfortunately! sony has a bad marketing strategyYes, they announce the price for their phones.
          Outdated design, very expensive price, no proper OS updates.
          The only thing that is good in Sony is that they actually provide mini versions of their devices with actually small footprint. But after seeing the price all good intentions are going out of the window.

                  Understable when you can buy a variety of phones with good quality and plenty of features and/or good spefications like the the Zenfone 5z, Mi 8 Explorer, OP6, etc, for half of the price or less of a XZ2 Premium. The difference in price between $355-$455 depending of the model vs $999 of the XZ2 Premium can't be justified in any way. So join the HTC club and good luck with only a minority of fans as customers. Another sink of money with poor management and forecast.

                    what a tech tragedy.
                    a great firm with great products.
                    just fails time after time to understand its customers and the market it plays in.

                      hey need to work on having an innovative and trendy design + better cameras, even though they are pioneers of sorts + better loudspeaker + COMPETITIVE PRICING for their offerings

                      they already have a great brand name, but thats not all nowadays..
