Sony Xperia Z5 Premium - user opinions and reviews

The Sony submersion rating is only good for FRESH WATER. And only provided that all ports and covers are firmly closed and sealed.
Most swimming pools are chlorine or salt-water based and NOT FRESH WATER.
The small print clearly says that the phones SHOULD NOT be used in any swimming pools or the sea/beach. These phones ARE failing when used in chlorinated and salt water.
Sony IS NOT replacing all of the phones which are damaged due to water.

Hi Guys
hope all are well. im curious to know what the actual screen is made out of? I recently smashed my XperiaZ and its totally knackered, accidentally of course,but if I never dropped it,wouldnt even consider replacing it. In any event,I have a question my people; Is the screen on the Z5 stronger and shatterproof like the XperiaZ?
I wanna buy one this weekend but I need a phone that's as tough and shatterproof as the XperiaZ? PLEASE HELP

I have had this phone for a couple of weeks and it is a quantum leap from my old Sony Xperia J. that said I do not think it is worth having a 4K display which even Marshmallow will not fully utilise and as to the overheating problem, I just blow on the back and things start to work again. It is very difficult to dissipate heat in a phone that is dust proof and watertight to a depth of 1.5m and I find it is the GPU that creates most of the heat so prolonged game playing or video will cause the phone to heat up quite a bit. If the phone bricks because of this I would suggest there is a fault and the phone should be sent back to Sony to investigate. This is a game changing phone and is guaranteed to be so for a good while until everyone else has caught up.

AnonD-434597, 19 Feb 2016Never heard anything about Z6. While others already have solid line up, like Sammy, Xiaomi,... moreAll true what you said. With the Z5 having overheating problems, questionable quality and the same old self cracking screens, 2016 will be very hard for Sony phones....Nothing heard of a possible Z6 yet.

I have the phone for like 60 days running daily use. There is no friend that cant resist to ask more info about the phone at first sight or asking to have a look into it.
The feedback and impressions are always the same:
Good ones: This phone is sick ! OS gives flawless rendering of any task at its best.
Bad ones: I didn't know that Sony makes so good phones.
+1 for the Chrome color - pretty astonishing, although it needs cleaning to look good, if you have dirty hands :)
