      I'm very glad it has a720p screen. No need to rate l waste resources on a resolution that will be unnoticeable anyway.

        AnonD-510275, 31 Aug 2017Snapdragon 835 with 720p? Isn't that smooth-overkill? The funny looking, big bottom bezel on it's front screen is overkill ! Sony isn't known for have speakers loud enough for watching apps 😜 either. Once again, I am disappointed with Sony's fall lineup. Maybe in a year or two I'll get a Sony handset. Smartphone competition will be fierce in 2019 and 2020. Good luck to all OEMs .

            Looks good, looking forward to see the battery life tests.
            Is the screen gorilla glass 5? And also interested in the scratch resistance of the plastic.

              Instead of adding those little technical tricks, sony shoud have focused more on their apps which are too basic & their marketing dept.

                Perfect smartphone, in my opinion. Lets see how its priced and if it launches in India or not. Really love a compact phone and its Sony and runs on android !

                      Good phone BUT,
                      My nitpicks:
                      -32gb internal storage is really not enough, after Orea you will have- what- 20GB at most, barebones.
                      -Not metal unibody
                      -For most simply too small screen

                      Positive:
                      -720p screen with flagship hardware, very good performance, and most likely a long battery life

I want a premium small-screened Android phone (similar size to iPhone 7). I'll check this out again next year around March.

                              Sounds like a solid phone.
                              I much prefer sub 5" devices for pocket value.
                              Hope it will be priced fairly, as opposed to usually.

                              Sony really needs to try harder to reach fans and re establish it's good rep
                              when it comes to phones(which IMO ended around the xperia play era).
