Who wants to buy a phone without something as basic as a 3.5mm jack? What benefit is there in ditching the jack and inconveniencing users with a lousy adapter, all this just to ape Apple? Apple ditched the jack because it wanted to sell expensive adapters and Air Pods but Sony is just a loser that wants to hang on to Apple's coat tails.

        Anonymous, 15 Mar 2018Who first jump to the battery life page?I jumped to lab tests. But mainly the display, because it is what we use to operate the phone. I can't enjoy a super fast device with high quality camera, audio, long-lasting battery life, and great software with a bad display.

The S9 is cleaner but doesn't get the advantage of extra details. The XZ2's noisy image looks more of a true camera image than an artificial artwork like the S9.

            Both phones have the same 4 frame noise reduction technology, but the S9 is clearly better in term of noise reduction. In my opinion when i'm going to share pictures in low light conditions on social media, less noise or even free from the noise is the most important thing to me, the detail and the color afterwards.

                        Anonymous, 14 Mar 2018It is what I called perfecting the specs, not what the casual called inferior specs.Yea that's how it should be called, however as you can see a lot of people here how accidently happen to mention Samsung in their posts, disagree.
                        When Google achieved the same results with their original Pixel (having the same amount of details on higher ISO values than direct competitors despite the higher presence of noise) then it was all good. But now, as Sony does it, it's crap.

                        Also, I've noticed that Sony articles generate more comments than others, and a lot of them add Samsung to the party, for no apparent reason and with little to no arguments.

Look at the ISO values of both phones and draw a conclusion based on that. S9 duo has heavy noice reduction even on low ISO values, heck even at daytime shots which inevitably reduces the details. And the fact that they both have the same amount of details on such different ISO values is not doing S9 duo any favors, that's a solid fact.
                                    Another fact is that the S9 duo are a pair of great all around devices, but you've got to give credit where is due and be honest.

                                      Too many flaws for its price. All just has been commented before from the design to the lack of features and some specifications. The slippery, unstable and thick design, the bad selfie camera, the lack of audio jack, the lower display resolution, the lack of fast charger out of the box, the adapter not supporting quick charging too, the lack of ois at that price, etc. And positive only three basically, the latest SoC as usual, the good speakers and an improvement in some algorithms of the camera app. The flop of this phone and the compact could be epic. Comparable to the HTC U Ultra. The Sony shareholders could be raging a lot in few months. We will see.

                                        That other one looks just too color dull, and its narrower field of view.
                                        Maybe if XZ2 took the shot at same 12 mpx and 4:3 format...maybe it would look dull too.

                                        Btw, you havent commented on the snails detail on that shots before?
                                        On S9 you could barely "read" the snail, but on XZ2 the snail was cleary readable.
