SzH_P, 26 Nov 2019Then how do you explain about XZ1 only received 1 major update?THE EXPLANATION (Has no idea is this Sony official opinion on this also or not.. BUT THAT IS HOW IT IS)
Xperia XZ1 and Xperia XZ Premium are physically identical products - the only differentiating factor is the display and because of that the the the size of the device....
-or do you see there any higher end (premium) model on the XZ1 family like XZ1+ or XZ1 Premium....!?!?!?
-The Xperia XZ Premium is actually the same generation model than XZ1, but as there were no such a thing sold at the markets as XZ1, when the XZ Premium was released it would have been absolutely confusing to name it XZ1 Premium....
Referring to that I point out that the XZ Premium published with 7.1 got the 8 same time as the XZ1 was published on 8 and got 9 also....
XZ1 by the way is not any kind of a flagship model or top product of the company -it is the mainstream high-end model apparently Sony just wanted to postpone the publishing time as it was obvius that it would then have the 8 without upgrading on the sales packet! -but probably it still was designed or without any doubt it was for the 7.1 because it is the same damn product as the XZ Premium but mid sized and FULLHD.
-so I might claim that it got two upgrades still, only the first one happened just before it packed to the shipments from the mf.
and by the way the reason can be found to say that as the operating systems evolve and Sony has remained its simple and effective firmaware it wouldn't be possible for them to make an official 10 upgrade as from android 10 Sony Mail Software couldn't be backed up by the old PC software...
Arginbek, 18 Feb 2020Did it get android 10 Nope. It already got 2 major updates (Oreo and Pie) so no Android 10 anymore even it is capable of getting it. Pie is the last update for this phone same as XZ1.
Android Q, 06 Jan 2020sad we are not getting android Q eventhough the phone can easily manage it.Did it get android 10
matthew, 01 Dec 2019It received 2; the first was from Nougat to Oreo almost immediately after its release. i thou... moreNo the XZ1 run Oreo right out of the box
I used xzp 2 years still good Camara /speed and battery very good i played pubg / cod / mobile legend i recommended sony phones i love all Sony products
sad we are not getting android Q eventhough the phone can easily manage it.
Seems like a good smartphone, been using for 1 year:
pros:
+ Big bezel but very good screen. Tips/or not, idk: fiddling with the color setting and turn all the blue light off to save your eyes.
+ Awesome music playback thru ear/head-phone.
+ Running pubg at smooth/extreme FPS perfectly for 2 and a half hours (enough for me), COD at decent graphic, basically any games on google store can be thrown onto this phone
+ cool slow-mo 960 fps, I have been using it more than I expected.
+ No games? Only youtube, reddit, browsing webs and stuffs? Expect 4.5->5 hrs of SOT (still like that since the day I bought it)
cons:
+ Music playlists disappear/hiden randomly (wtf?) can't be retrieved -> solution: choosing music by folders
+ all the images (including in-game images) are appeared in the main page of gallery app (annoying, becos I have OSU-droid, all images using for songs are heaped in my gallery)
+ No swiping UI and shits bois, unless you go to xda and install the pie feature thingy, but that's ok for me, I like classic.
+ Low volume on speaker.
. uwu .
Conclusion: will be using it for more years, last square design, classic form factors are gone (T_T)
Thought: Y no square design like this with larger screen to body ratio ??? 🤔
Sony need to bring back “luminous chrome” for their next flagship
Got used one for 100 gbp and it is great. Maybe bit too big for my taste but everything is super fine. Battery is good though it is used model, screen is fantastic, processor lightning fast, body slim, nice to hold in hand. Gonna have it as a backup phone. I have Xperia 5 as well. Luminous chrome is amazing color. I would recommend this.
SzH_P, 26 Nov 2019Then how do you explain about XZ1 only received 1 major update?It received 2; the first was from Nougat to Oreo almost immediately after its release.
i thought the same thing because Oreo was available by the time i bought the device so i was wondering why it wasn't being updated to 10/Q
samirr, 21 Nov 2019Seems like you're new to android ecosystem. Android flagship phones usually get 2 major update... moreseems like u r wrong. i didnt explain why the 2 year rule has to change. i only posted the fate of capable devices. its not d same story for older years devices. ya iam new user to android since 2009 and having developed custom roms for years ya i take it bcos my device has life beyond the official one. iphones is a different story and can never be compared directly with android. oh well 2 year thing rule has to change is bcos..ah never mind.. i posted lot of times in other forums , its irrelevant anyway. XZ Premium btw still a legend but ya no warranty or support. hanging on just luck.

Android flagship phones usually get 2 major updates only regardless of what brand you have. XZ Premium was launched in Nougat and got Oreo and Pie updates already that's why no Android 10 for it because it got 2 updates already. Yeah it might be still capable of getting Android 10 but that's how the way it works on android updates. I you want to get android 10, might consider rooting your phone to get it. Take it or leave it, it will always have 2 major updates only unlike Iphones who got regular updates even for their older flagships.

but , i tried already , and from display , but no way
So now it's official. Poor XZ Premium won't even think about android 10 from Sony. We did got solid two year support but 835 inside is capable for more. And despite flagship unique model , having to sit out without anything more kind of hurts.. when will somebody change this 2 year thing... ?

Eldarmi, 01 Nov 2019Owners of this smartphone, How's the battery life on this device is it really that bad? Mine lasts for a day with heavy gaming, youtube, facebook, email and other apps. No complaint at all. I am satisfied on its battery life.
Eldarmi, 01 Nov 2019Owners of this smartphone, How's the battery life on this device is it really that bad?
Battery life is average. Got mine yesterday and it came with Android Pie with display running at 4K always. I suspect it's the 4K draining the battery quicker than it should. From my experience, when fully charged, it can take you about 3 to 3.5 hours to reach 50% while browsing and watching a couple of youtube videos with adaptive screen brightness.
