That smartphone u are talkimg about have a 5000mah battery. Comparing to this this only have almost half the capacity of the P1's one. Plus this chipset is notorious of overheating, which will also make the smartphone throttle and affect battery life

Having it able to record 4k when even 1080p heats it up is really not a winning option. That's why we didn't see 4k in x series.

                      Xperia Z5 is not waterproof. Mine got water inside and it did not even last for 10 mins soaked in water. Motherboard was toasted and replacing it costs a lot. Almost price of a new phone.

Like they did with 6.0.

                          I had 2 ui stops apparently, but they were only apps that didn't open at the 1st touch and open on 2nd. Other that these nothing else. Oh and while i listen to music and unlocking the phone with fingerprint, the playback has an almost unnoticeable hiccup. A bit annoying but it's my app poweramp, maybe?

The phone (any phone for that matter) will overheat anyway. And also some of us don't own a 4K TV yet. So a full 1080p HD is more than sufficient for me.
