I've had my XZ Premium since it was released, bought as a preorder. It was been an excellent device and still works perfectly to this day. Even the battery gets me through at least a full day with around 40%-50% charge left and is in perfect condition. The Xperia 1 looks like a pretty good device with a great display and better camera. Is it time to upgrade? Opinions and thoughts welcome!
Thanks in advance,
Charles
i had my xz premium since 2017 and it was the best phone i ever had (on android basis). Unfortunately my xz prem died 2 weeks ago because of my stupidity and I got a xperia 1 the same day. The only good thing about the 1s is the display (oled).
the end of the story is that i ordered another xz premium this week (from the remaining stock of a warehouse company) and i gave my x1 to my wife as a present (she should get annoyed with it). The phone came friday and it is simply the best (camera, battery, displyformat and haptic).
Sony should bring out a new xz premium with oled and leave the rest as it was.
i hope it helps you with your decision.

My brother got me a new Chinese cellphone called the Oneplus One last week since he had an extra invite and I my friend is offering me his hardly used Sony Xperia Zl for it. I am new to Android phones and the Oneplus One is the first Android device or smartphone I've owned thus far and I am quite happy with it but I always wanted an Xperia phone.
Is this a good trade? Can anyone chime in?
Hi all
At the moment I have a Nexus 5 and I want to change to the Z3 because the battery of my current phone is killing me (Can't reach 3H SOT).
But it's a good moment to buy the Z3? I thing that if I buy it I will have to stay with it for at least 2 years.
What do you recommend to me? Should I buy the Z3 now or I should wait to others devices to come (OnePlus Two or Nexus 5 2015)

I used to have N5 and only thing that was better is grippines. N5 rubber smooth surface made it very easy to use without case. Z3 is superior in every other ways imo. Better battery, camera, front speakers and screen was definitely worth to upgrade for me. But keep in mind that I sold N5 for 200€ and bought used Z3 for 290€.
With Z4 coming out, the price of Z3 will come down, so I think it's time to buy Z3.
Hi,
I wanna buy the Sony Z3 although it has been out the market for a while since September last year, i'm still impressed by its design however, i would like to ask you guys here about it, should I wait for the Z5 or buy the Sony Z3 which is a bit cheaper at the moment.
Personally, I prefer the Z3 (lower price, better design - my personal point of view, and still adapt almost everything one smartphone needs to have .. )
How about you guys and is there any owner of Z3 can give me some more suggestions ?
Thanks a lot
Go for Z3 it's cheaper and performance is not very different than Z5
Hi guys, I've been on a nexus 4 for 3 years, rooted from minute 1. Really happy with it except the battery life... It's now around 3-4 hors SOT.
I just want to upgrade to something (new or used I don't care) that has a good battery. Im tired of charging the phone every time I have the possibility to survive 1 day.
Any suggestion? I read about the z3 compact, oneplus one, note 4, droid turbo, but don't know about new released phones and which one is better in that regard (not sacrificing too much potential, i mean, my nexus 4 is rarely laggy as of today for my usage, i don't need a missile inthat regard).
No one?

You should go for the OPO if you want value for a budget-mid range price. The device is premium built plus it's blazingly fast.
The price is 300 euros for the 64GB version.
I hope this helped...
Hello all
I purchased a second hand z5 it's in fantastic condition but the battery performance is pretty woeful.
I've gone through the many helpful software suggestions but no joy. (unfortunately I can't unlock the bootloader)
So I've ordered a replacement battery and while looking for it I came across the z5 premium battery, as I'm sure you're aware it has a larger capacity.
How much of a bad idea is it to put the premium battery in the z5?
The connectors look the same and the dimensions are very similar.
Will I fry my phone?
Cheers
The xperia z5 is not two years old yet. You should still have warranty. This week i sent my phone to Sony for battery replacement and they repaired my phone without hesistation.
I'll check, hopefully it is.
Cheers
Battery status : bad plaese replace says my Z5. And I am thinking to buy this :
