                  Anonymous, 28 Aug 2017Z5 or s7 edge? Which one is better and why?I've had the Z5 and i'm using a S7 Edge as i'm typing.

                  The Z5 is a good phone from Sony. Its a good processor and a very high quality camera. The battery, well it's 600-700 mAh less than S7 Edge. The screen on both phones are superb, but bear in mind that 1 single little crack on the Z5's display will make the touch defective.

                  When the Z5 works, it is a solid phone. Great performance and high batterylife. Everything runs smoothly and it has a decent design. A bit edgy for my taste.

                  but...

                  My Z5 has overheated plenty of times, lagged and froze and suddenly rebooted in larger games like Summoner Wars. It could as highest play from full charge until empty in just under 5 hours where my S7 Edge rests firmlyat around 7-8 hours (still after 1 year of usage).

                  I cant have a Sony for more than 6 months until problems and errors occure. The camera failed and got replaced, then it wouldnt boot and got a new mainboard and charging port and it came back with a loose back cover (lol). These problems happened to a Z3, Z3+, Z5 and Z5 Premium. I might have been unlucky but my experience with sending each phone for service up to 4 times is just madness :/

                  The S7 Edge is just oooooo. Its large, yes but you get used to it. It has never overheated after over 1 year of daily usage. Compared to the Sony, the S7E charges a lot lot lot faster. From ~15% to 100% battery in around 60-70 min.
                  Although the camera on Z5 is 23MP and the S7 is 12MP, i love the S7 more. The colors are a bit modified and makes the picture more colorful with brighter colors (vibrant?). The Z5 is also great. It does have a sharp quality too, but the pictures are a bit darker and much more like the natural colors (more accurate).
                  I couldnt film continiously for 15 min on neither Sony phone without overheating. The S7E can film until:
                  A- the battery runs out or B- the memory gets full.

                  Overall i like the S7E more and im not hating on Sony. They have good phones but the only downside is the hot and overheating processors and sometimes the shorter battery in games.

Guys plz help me I have recently bought anew Z5 and there is ... moreNo, instead, it improves the performance significantly. The processor is notorious for overheating, there are news about the overheating of the processor on other smartphone brands too. And from my own experience, there is definitely a major performance improvement for me. The latest version doesn't make the smartphone overheat and is much more responsive than before. For other people I am really not sure what they are saying when they say the battery life is bad after updating. I am actually still satisfied wkth the battery life, 5 hours of SOT intensive games, still ok, will be better if used lesser
