Display Viewing Angle on Xperia Z2 (nothing to say about S5 cause Super AMOLED is awesome enough )
>Early Performance Report, Benchmarks
Sony tried to reduce bezels size and improve their OmniBalance design. It means even if Xperia Z2 is tall But bigger display & Battery. also durability for IP58.
Samsung has great design on Galaxy S4. round phone is always expected from samsung. but Round phone with more bezel than previous flagship is not that cool! It s exactly unlike what Sony done.
For both phone; Durability of Phone force them to design.
In this side Sony did smarter job cause it uses metallic frame and thinner bezel.
BUT first you have to check performance of phone.
This time Sony have better plan for availability.
Xperia Z2 will come in Mid-March But Galaxy S5 in early April.

However on Xperia Z, ZL, Z1 & etc we saw lots of new and report about BAD display (Viewing Angle) But this time we can see lots of report about GOOD display.
Now It s about Large Color Gamut.
& maybe it s widest color range support for smartphones.
This Color Gamut is even more than Super-AMOLED displays.

nothing to say about Galaxy S5 sound cause it s not something special it has mono-speakers(Like S4 & Note3)
But 2 Stereo Speaker on Xperia Z2 is very good.
Xperia Z2 VS htc ONE [Sound]
/htc ONE has Dual Speaker-Beats Audio sound enhancement
Xperia Z2 is Louder but still htc one is more clear.
But thr s awesome speakers on XZ2 so they can improve quality by Software update.
Great Improvement from Z1;

Previous phones cannot compete with Xperia Z2
Only we can expect that Galaxy S5 with ISOCELL camera and bigger pixel size become real competitor.

please write your opinion about these two flagships...
:good:
S5 just have FHD display with Snap S800 and 2Gig of RAM
May be souce is wrong,
Samsung Galaxy S5 will be using Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset in MSM8974-AC variant, clocked at 2.5 GHz. Sony D6503 will be also using Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset in MSM8974-AB variant, clocked at 2.3 GHz.

yes the source is wrong, the screen is not 1080p its at least 2k
anyone own a Sony will regret it...Sony will be bankrupt in the next 3 years guarantee it, crappy phones, crappy tv, crappy headphone. Its hard to believe Sony is a Japanese company.
There's multiple versions of S5, Exynos and Snapdragon, FullHD and QHD, I guess only the exynos version will have QHD, or it might be a mix... Samsung doesn't have LTE modem compatible with everywhere that's why they're using Qualcomm in some cases ( S4 LTE used Qualcomm, while S4 3G used Exynos ).. the reason of why there's two screen resolution I guess is duo to low QHD production, Samsung can't sustain the required demand for these so they're going after FHD as a backup...
In most cases, we might get Exynos with QHD and Qualcomm with FullHD...
Sony's flagship will have 3300mAh according to latest rumor, it also has stereo speakers
8974AC

SD-800
according to wikipedia and sources below wiki page SD800-8974AC max speed is 2.4GHz
however they can modify it for 2.5GHz but that s wht we know.
:good:
Galaxy S5 might be water-dust resistant
According to O2 Germany via AndroidAuthority
Sent via Nexus7 | WiFi.32GB
Or we could see an GS5 Active or O2 could be using "water" to hide the GS5 since they have no clue what it looks like.

:good:
NOW Sony have too difficult battle.
cause S5 probably support IP67
and 16MP camera with bigger sensor with aqua mod

If only the Sony would be widespread in the US like the S5.

You're right it's my opinion and so is everything else on the net regarding the GS5. No one knows for sure until next Monday. That is FACT.
Something Extraordinary vs. Life-5
Samsung released Galaxy Unpacked 5 trailer
everything marked 5 include Wet 5 (that can prove this galaxy is water proof)

Sony mentioned Something Extraordinary is coming

Xperia Z2
We saw Xperia Z2 and now waiting for Galaxy S5
Samsung doesn't have difficult way to win battle !
:good:
Xperia Z2 Display powered by both Live Color algorithm & X-Reality engine
IPS /TRILUMINOS FullHD
It can be positive point for new Xperia...
Galaxy S5
NOW I have to say Samsung had so difficult battle!
and i my opinion Samsung cannot win!
after successful S4 & Note3
this S5 is not that impressive!
everything about it
Xperia Z2 is winner of MWC14
The ugliest device of 2014: Samsung galaxy S5!
Xperia Z2 aperature is 2.0 not 2.3
The Sony is too tall. The GS4 is already tall enough. I don't want a taller phone with a lot of bezel.

Dont ever doubt.. Xperia is winner!
The situation: Nexus 5 and Moto G 2014 shares the same Camera Module (Sony IMX139).
Nexus 5 has Snap 800 8674-AA
Moto G has Snap 400 8226
Due to the lazyness of motorola, G is capped at 720p video recording and no manual controls at all, when CPU + DSP + MODULEsupports 1080p and etc.
Is it possible to borrow Nexus 5 drivers to implement 1080p recording or even camera api2?
The phone seems to be able to handle manual controls and even RAW.
New work phone that will be bought from the carrier. Price no consideration. The carrier is selling these phones unlocked and types modem shouldn't be and issue. The company just gives me a phone every 2 years and pays carrier fees. No maintenance, extras, out of warranty fixes or accessories added. Will own this phone in a year of working for them. I tend to update and maintain my phones and I dabble in Android development.
Most important critera:
Good reception and call quality
Sturdyness
Easy and cheap to fix
Good mod community and long time mod support (preferably with NFC intact)
Middling importance:
Battery.
Size (not 5.5+)
Camera
Decently dust/waterproof
Not important:
Screen quality (above 720p)
Storage (above 16GB)
CPU/GPU
Weight
Wifi reception
MicroSD
Wireless charging
Fingerprint/retina scan
Speakers
Front camera
Available choices (leaving out some older generation devices):
HTC 10
Huawei P9 Titanium
Samsung Galaxy A5 A510
Samsung Galaxy S7
Samsung Galaxy Xcover 3 G389
Sony Xperia M5
Sony Xperia X
Sony Xperia X Performance
Sony Xperia XA
Sony Xperia XZ
ZTE Axon 7
Leaning towards the Xperia XZ. Samsung seems to be no good for mod support in recent generations. Don't know about HTC, ZTE and Huawei.

Don't go for Samsung their ram management is not to good
And google out the other models and compare them
OP3T is sadly not an option. Work is buying what I ask for from the list above. The main criteria is ease of repair and mod support for the models in the list.
There's a thread for this type of discussion:

why again LG

why not
Because, for me, the LG V50 5G is the best phone of 2019 with the best cameras/camera software, nice design on the back/less on the front, best audio quality (v50 standar DAC destroys by a mile other phones dacs, QUAD - DAC is light years ahead, best AMP for headphones, 50 Ohm impedance trick, DTSX, LDAC), best fit for my Tidal Master account, best fit for my sony wh1000m3 headphones, snapdragon 855 mobile platform with 5G modem (IMO sd855 destroys a12 bionic or kirin or exynos), USB C 3.1 with 5gbps speed and HDMI output with power delivery, otg support and probably better display than samsungs s10 line. Indeed I miss G7-G8 form factor, but the v50 is in another league of quality. These are just a few of my reasons...
Tell more about the LG V50 impressions, like SD855 vs SD845. The smoothness of the UI & the overall performance. How's Pie embedded to the LG UX 8.0. Does the navigation gestures feel close to stock Android, which is I love about Pie. Not the Samsung's One UI navigation gestures, which I don't prefer.
