I really like Sony's design and specs. They clearly aren't doing everything that is popular for the sake of being popular but they are doing one thing too many and that is having glossy glass on the back. If it must be glass at least make it matte, no one actually wants a slippery finger print magnet, at least not for more than 24hours. Personally I would even rather have it be matte plastic so that it doesn't brake on a drop but if they would make it out of aluminum this would be a 10/10 and if they made the frame out of steel it would be an 11/10.

Tann Hauser, 07 Nov 2020I think its about battery managment. I installed it yesterday... And now... I am noticing ... moresame here. i have kaspersky battery life installed: after update the "idle" sot increased from app 7 days to app 8 days. also the "stop app" feature (stops the usually self-starting apps running in the background...) shows almost no apps to be stopped :)

geek-a-contra, 06 Nov 2020anyone knows what is the new "system update" about? I think its about battery managment.
I installed it yesterday...
And now... I am noticing I am at 4:30 hr of screen on time mark, with 70% battery left. Meaning, I could go as up as 14 hr SoT on a single charge. That ll be 2 more hr more than usual
Now, that is insane...

Google key is also beneficial as you can short press it to wake the screen.

However, the phone will overheat when playing some 3D games. I have tried some rally game with all graphics set to max and it was overheating badly after just two races.

I used mine for about 3 days, and then the pictures started to look weird.. I took a look at the lenses and there was water condensation on it. It was never submerged or anything.. now, after less that 1 week of usage, it has been sent for "support".. which means that they will check if its a design defect or miss-use. I would recommend that you stay away from this phone, its expensive and you will get in a support rabbit hole if something is wrong with it

People should have freedom to install and uninstall the apps they like or dislike.
My last Sony phone was XZ1 Compact. M not buying unless they learn this very basic thing. You cannot force people to keep apps on their phone they don't want.

Sony sony , 04 Nov 2020Dont look at mp only,,, look for apperture size alsoAperture is only part of it, pixel sites need to be a good size too, a fast lens doesn't always mean better quality.
I think sticking to 12mp is a great choice, unless you actually print your images even 8mp would be big enough for viewing on device or via social media and photography platforms.
