You get good selfies in well lit conditions as well as in low light (thanks to the front flash). Rear camera is capable of shooting superb pics with natural colors in daylight, indoors and outdoors. As far as low light images are concerned it does the job well (may not be as good as the S8) but I had taken some pics with my XZ1 in almost no light and they looked pretty cool actually, it brightens up the scene to capture more detail. Overall a handy camera for a smartphone.

Anonymous, 19 Jul 2018Can anybody tell me about the battery life of xz1??? Battery life on the XZ1 is really impressive at first I thought 2700 mAh won't be big enough but it wasn't the case. For me it easily lasts for over a day with wifi on for almost all day.

mark, 12 Jul 2018My XZ1 display has yellowish display it's warm in the eye, is this normal or display problem? There are 3 different display modes in the XZ1, Professional mode, Standard mode and Super vivid mode. Try switching to these modes and see the difference and if the problem still exists take it to the service center. Mine is on the Standard mode and it's really superb with bright colors.

That's a nice phone, built well and very speedy. T-mobile volte and wi-fi calling is a big plus (even though I had to modify the firmware to get it).
Not sure yet about the size. Feels A LITTLE heavy and big. Xperia X was perfect size for me. Maybe need time to adjust or maybe will have to swipe with XZ1 compact, but afraid that XZ1c might be too small.

By the way XZ1 is a great choice I'm enjoying it right now the updates are really fast than any other brands in android, got the July update last week. I really like Sony phones as they last for years without any lag or issues, had a Z3 for 2 years followed by the X and the XZ and now the XZ1. Hope your P10 sells at a good price so that you can enjoy this beast. Cheers!!

I got the P10 afterwards, and tried a XZ Premium this year's March, but sent it back because it was to bulky for me. I've put my P10 up for sale, and will be getting a XZ1 after that. The P10 is great and all, but bleh I wanna get back to Sony, I have a mirrorless digital camera anyway, so I'm not really using the phone's camera that much. Looking forward to the experience, thanks for your reply btw!

XZ1 has the same firmware and Snapdragon with XZ Premium, so these two phones get the updates at the same time. And if XZ1 will get android 9.0 or 10.0 then the XZP will get too.

''+'' Good design. Slim (but case is required it is quite slippery, can be easy dropped). Fast. Power button with a finger print recognition is superb! Battery lasting quite good: entire day guaranteed. Pictures quality is acceptable (not selfies...)
''-'' 3D modeling is total scrap!! (To achieve acceptable result is not possible). Slow motion filming: is not convenient to use during filming and you have only several seconds to catch right moment. Selfie: closer object is unnaturally enlarged (having slim face it becomes fat)..
In general satisfied with a phone..
My previous phone HTC E8 (which did not have any ''-'' for me at the time I bought it 4 years ago)

Went to a night market today with my friend who has an iPhone 7 plus and the camera of my XZ1 completely destroyed the apple while taking pics without flash. This phone is a complete powerhouse in terms of camera and performance, love it!!!

I took it to the service centre and the cost of repairing the screen was sky high and to be honest I've never used a 2 day old repaired phone so I sold it for peanuts. After that I saved money and bought the XZ1 which has solid build quality unlike Samsung. One thing which goes in favor of Sony is the regular updates, solid build quality, feels premium in hands, monstrous battery life and camera is a capable of taking good shots even in low lights. Overall it's a great buy and value for money.

I think the new chip, plus lasting battery will come in handy. And Project tremble will be a nice bonus.

As far as the updates are concerned the 2 year old Xperia X is running on the latest oreo update so this will get updates for over 2 years or so. There's nothing wrong with this phone, I've used a lot of Xperia phones in the past and it has always been a pleasant experience using them.
