Sony Xperia Z5 Premium - user opinions and reviews

Been using this phone since Mid of year 2016, however, recently i used my colleague Samsung charger which is 2.0A, is consider a fast charging charger, and my battery now seems to drain really fast, it cannot even last till evening, by 1pm of the day, the battery is at less than 20%, for the past few years it has remarkable performance, i wouldn't have to charge the phone under normal usage, only needed to be put to charge after dinner time. In Malaysia most of the (fix your phone) shop sells lousy replacement battery which can barely last more than 3 months and it cost RM500, and to buy the new Xperia 1 doesn't seems ideal to me in comparison with p30pro, im wondering should i buy Sony or Huawei now. Definitely need to get a new phone at the soonest.

I just want to say that in one particular thing the camera on the sony Xperia z5 premium is the best camera ive ever used. Maybe it was the screen, but im not sure seeing as ive used other 4k phones. With good lighting, when you take a picture of say a flower....the level of detail captured within the image is something I have yet to see even approaching 2020. When you look at the pic in your gallery and you zoom in. It sometimes takes a few seconds but you will be able to count the pollen due to the phone producing extreme detail within its photos. Other phones ive used have taken great and even "better" pictures. But when you zoom in on the photo the level of detail disappears and the finer details wont show up like they will on the z5 premium. Im currently using a lg v40 thinq. And since I had my z5 premium. Ive owned samsung lg and google flagship phones and none have been able to accomplish what the z5p has.

It overheats up to a very uncomfortable temperature. The screen shouts "don't touch me". The CPU begs you to stop the power thirsty applications. The glue literally melts. The battery drains within minutes. Till you have no other option than to wash the waterproof telephone with cold water. Trust me.

4k but no 4k !
you can never watch 4k vr...what ever you do!
adb hacking will only resize the screen size to 1/4 size...
and no app can hold the 4k vr correctly
you can never watch 4k youtube
and adb hacking will not true 4k
thats only emulation of screen size
no true 4k
you cant even playback mkv file or 4k hevc codec file...
so what can i play with 4k?
there is no 4k for sony ~
this is scam
there is no 4k on z5 premium
this is useless
and the cpu heats up in 3minutes and stuck....
you cant play anything when its hot
stink sony !
now i know why sony has gone out of market
even google has kicked off sony phones...
hahahahaha
where is my 4k?
where is my money?

Is it not overheating? I just got a unit with a broken screen (to be fixed later), but I want to know which is the best rom that addressed the overheating issue. And sometimes the sound on youtube playback seems to be desync over time.

SHAKELL, 09 May 2019The Sony Xperia Z5 Premium may seem amazing based on the details provided, however the main pr... moreSnap 810 + 4K display are the great combination for faster overheat, since snap 810 is the transition from 32 to 64 bit plus qualcomm just learned to make from 4 to 8 cores and qualcomm must make it under 1 year, so the chipset design is already defective, can't control the heat from clockspeed, if you feel the apps will freezing it is mostly because throtling down from overheat, yes sony didn't learn from defective 810 and still use it, while samsung didn't want to use it because samsung has already make 64bit 8 cores chip since Note 4 so samsung is in PRO level while qualcomm just student who begins to enter the higher level of chipset

Is it that it gets so hot be... moreSome heat more than others, according to notebookcheck.net, this phone heats up to 43.1°C or 110°F under maximum load (100% CPU Usage), these temperatures can be reached under normal use. Somewhere around 46°C (113°F) and 47°C (117°F) is where you feel a slight burning sensation, not dangerous though. 41°C is the max for comfortable use for most people.
