    Anon.D, 14 Sep 2018Samsung is indeed the best when it comes to OLED. Just ignore the salty fan, they all find wa... morejust to prove your point

    benchmark -xz3 aces, others lag far behind
    battery life- second only to note 9
    screen
    brigtness- xz3 is behind only note 9 and s9 plus
    sunlight legibility- xz3 is on par with note 9 and s9 plus
    pixel density- xz3 wins but by a small margin against
    note9 and s9 plus
    speakers- xz3and p20 pro in excellent category others
    are behind
    software - xz3 with pie others are just shy
    camera - go to the photo comparison tool and see for
    yourself which is the best

    sure p20 pro has 3 cameras and only xz3 is single lensed.
    but it makes up for it with portrait shots, 4k hdr video recording (only on xz3), smart launch, predictive capture, full hd 960fps

    so I guess you are right except for one word.
    xz3 is far "beyond" the others

      8bit SDR screen
      Useless 2nd cam
      No IP rating
      No sd slot
      Notch
      Caught cheating benchmark and sending data to China
      Mono speaker
      No 4K HDR Rec2020 or HDR10 recording
      Lower bitrate video

      I'd rather pay more 200 to have all this, Compact was 700.

      Only good things are speed and 4K EIS ( best in my opinion)

        Once again, Sony doesn't understand what a bezeless phone is.

          [deleted post]I prefer LCD ...

          Pure black does not exist in reality. Also you can use max brightness as much as you want.

              Xperia is the only one that can play HDR 10 bits rec 2020, Samsung displays are poor in brightness (370 bits) poor in subpixel ((penile display) poor in colors (8 bits display)

                  Not strange that charging is so slow with Pixel charger. I read somewhere that XZ3 supports up to 45W USB PD charging and what Pixel charger gives is about 18W (at least this is max for this device), right/ With 45 it should be (in theory) 3 times faster.

                    [deleted post]Haha no.
                    Gsmarena are not professional measuring screens do not even have the right equipment, you need hardware and software compatible with HDR screens 10 bits rec 2020.

                    the one who made the analysis hates sony for some reason, apart from not knowing how to analyze screens or having the right tools has said many nonsense, an 8-bit screen is never better than a 10-bit screen rec 2020, a screen amoled pentile never it is better than an RGB and the brightness of an oled HDR is measured with 17% white and works differently than the lcd measurements.

                        kakouille, 14 Sep 2018Don't change the subject and read the review. Sony Brightness, HDR and Color Accuracy sucks. ... moreSamsung is indeed the best when it comes to OLED.
                        Just ignore the salty fan, they all find ways to lie and manipulate.
                        Maybe the reason why they always compare to Samsung and Huawei P20 pro is because phones like Galaxy S9 and Note, P20 Pro are benchmark devices, the best in the industry while phones like OnePlus rules the budget category. XZ3 is a good phone but is far behind the Note 9, S9+, P20 Pro and OnePlus 6.

                            Shanti Dope, 14 Sep 2018Nah Great design is different from great looks. The Note 9 is just the latter. It ain't ergon... moreIt didn't match. You will just twist, degrade, and manipulate to match what you want.
                            However if the devices were switched around and Sony made the note 9 you would be thrashing everywhere about how superior it is.
                            You don't extremists have been called out and outnumbered and outclassed

                                Mike, 14 Sep 2018There is a good reason why XZ3 has lower brightness and that's to control PWM flicker as well ... moreGood excuse

                                  There is no problem in sony phone or lg phone for normal users in fact normal people don't do deep review about there phone they buy phone because they like it (eg. Price , looks, some basic features, brand name or service) otherwise oppo vivo and xiomi are not top seller and Actual faults are company sony and lg don't do advertisement much and oppo vivo, samsung and apple do advertisement more

                                    kakouille, 14 Sep 2018Brightness is a KEY element of HDR. Sony HDR SUCKS according to the review "However, not all... moreDamn the number of Sony fanboys bashing Samsung S9, Note 9 and Huawei P20 pro is just astounding lol. Don't forget these are the exact same people who used to hate on OLED and we were used to seeing comments like OLED sucks, crapoled. etc etc
                                    Just look at these people now, they have all lost their minds after Sony adopts OLED technology, they are trying their best to lie and justify that Sony's OLED is better when clearly it's not, heck even the review says "the s9+ does have the superior display".
                                    Now please go accuse gsm arena of being biased lol.

                                        Display XZ3 IS 2K RGB
                                        Display s9 IS 2k pentile.

                                        XZ3 Win

                                        XZ3 display IS HDR 10 bits rec 2020.(1000 millions colours)

                                        display s9 IS sdr 8 bits ( Only 16,7 millions colours)
                                        XZ3 Win

                                        XZ3 have (gsmarena more 400 bits)
                                        S9 only 370 bits.
                                        XZ3 Win.

                                        I do not see anywhere that the screen of the s9 is better
