Crazy devil , 27 Aug 2016Hello bro..my choice is between Xperia m5,Xperia Z5,Xperia XA or Xperia X...which one better a... moreXperia Z5 (which i own) and Xperia X (check reviews) has a superb camera. True, there are still a lot of problems with Sony, as they can't optimise the software to reduce noise on photos, however that only usually happens to me when there's barely any light, or if i zoom in (don't zoom, crop!).

I have used my phone in rain and there was no problem, it was usable, and was functioning perfectly fine. Didn't try it under water as i find that risky, and also, it's not waterproof! It's water resistant! It's a completely different story we're having here!!

Xperia X is not certified by any IP certification, however I've seen videos showing that it can withstand water well, just like a true Sony phone.

PS: The mid range Sony phones worth the money if you need a phone for a short amount of time (6-12months) *(after that, all of my friends phone become laggy, although factory reset can help you), however if you need a phone that can basically do, literally everything, i recommend you check the Z->X + (not XA) series.

PS2: I do not think that the Xperia X worth the price that retail stores and Sony is asking for it.

    Z5 has IP68, it fall in the shallow water (20 cm) I took it back in a second, but after 2 hours I could not charge it. The authorized service for Sony keeps the phone almost 2 weeks, as I understood, the warranty is not valid!!!Their explanation is all users must prepare the phone before using it in a water? My friend has Samsung Galaxy 7 edge and he makes pictures deep in the lake without any preparation. Can someone explain me who is right or advice

          AnonD-575690, 23 Aug 2016Hi guys/girls .. I have Xperia Z1 and planning to buy the new model Z5, but the thing is that ... moreWell, I upgraded from Z1 to Z5. Just do it. I had so many doubts and stuff. But I just upgraded and I neve regret. So many new stuff and the speed is the best part. And the sounds.

          Only problems with the Z5 are:

          Stupid double tap to wake which is too sensitive and works inside your pocket.

          Does heat up sometimes

          Well selfies suck compared to iPhone. It's just disgusting compared to IPhone 6s. None of the pics I took looked pretty like the iPhone.

                I just got the Z5 and am with Tmobile. Do they really have LTE service as they claim ? My old Samsung S4mini gets more bars than the Z5. Does anybody have any suggestions ?

                  Luqie, 26 Aug 2016So its better rather to get the z3 and not the z5? What about the z4?? Z3+ is Z4 in terms of mobile phone which was a failure. Z3 is a superb phone without any doubt but won't be getting the android N update, so if you want to upgrade go for the xperia X which is a superb phone in terms of battery and camera, in fact the latest best from Sony. Rest is up to you.

It's 2015 smartphone and you should think about 2016 model. Although Z3 was the best job of Sony so please don't expect other phones work properly like Z3. Xperia XZ (rumors) is next Sony flagship and it is better choice than Xperia Z5. My Xperia Z5 temperature rise up to 58 Celsius easily and the achievement was 65!!!
