But it still needs to be taken seriously, and people should careful with expensive gadgets no matter. If you are planning to get Z5 be cautious, it's not a toy.

Well what can I say to start with this phone is rubbish and arguably the worst smart phone I have ever had.
This comment will sound like a ramble but any person who uses a smart phone I hope a'lot of what I am saying will make sense particularly as I comparing this phone against the Samsung galaxy note series
So when I take up grade to a new phone I look for a number things these are
Battery life, Sound/ Speaker reproduction, usability, compatibility and design and equipment.
Battery life
In short this is rubbish I judge a phone by how long it takes me to drain the battery and then compare it to other phones that I have had and have used in the same fashion.and so far the Sony Z5 has come up short on to aspects not only can i drain the battery from full in 4 hrs but it then takes an absolute age to recharge so much so that I would rather buy an Iphone in future than to have to put up with this.
Sound/ Speaker
The volume is very low and the quality reproduction is poor as the speaker inside the phone so when in use you can hear and feel the speaker vibrating against the back of the phone.
Usability
The camera takes photos in a to higher format to be attached to an email unless you edit the picture before sending.
The overall easy of coping pasting highlighting links transferring pictures links etc is hard and in some cases not possible at all.
Re booting, Re starting is slow and I feel myself ageing when my phone does this, it is also prone to do this as through use it gets hot and freezes and then restarts alternatively it will just shut the application that I am using down.
Compatibility
This will cover overall functionality. in order for this phone to work on you laptop it needs to install software in order for it to work. Unlike other smart phones it does not work as a hard drive when it is attached
Design and equipment
this has got to be the most stupid aspect of this phone. The earphones provided are substandard and cheap
There is no volume control on the ear phones so in order to change the volume of music that you are listening because the volume keys are positioned at the bottom of the phone you have to take your phone out of your pocket to put the volume up or down
The Jack socket to attache the earphones has been positioned on the wrong side of the as when using the phone in a landscape fashion the volume keys are backwards
These are just some of my views in regards this phone and there are many more. I cant believe that Sony has produced such a rubbish phone as I used to use their Sony Ericsson which were actually very good in some cases and from a merchandising perspective this is the phone that features in the new bond film, bond would have thrown the this phone back at Q and said it it rubbish

I had Xperia Z before. I really like the size and design of the Z5. Would be a great phone if the camera and flash are better! I use Pano mode and camera everyday for work.
Sony just has not learned from their mistakes.
Cons since Xperia Z: Poor camera in Pano mode and low light, weak led flash, music volume level is not loud, loud speaker quality and volume is poor, etc. I would buy Sony again if they fix these concerns!!!! No wonder your market is dying. smh

In the settings of Display, there is Image Enhancement settings. There is 3 options whi... moreit really depends on what you like, there is no best option in display settings.
Some want a natural, unsaturated image. Others want deep colours that are pleasing to look at. If you like deeper and more saturated colours go for vivid mode, if you want a natural image keep everything off, and if you want something in between pick xreality.

Guys,
In the settings of Display, there is Image Enhancement settings. There is 3 options which are "Off", "X-Reality for mobile", and "Super-vivid mode".
Which one is better to enhance my display quality?
I noticed that "Super-vivid mode" provide a much richer colour compared to "X-Reality for mobile".
In you opinion, which one will you choose? Can you give me some suggestions? I don't mind that if it will drain my battery life
