    Post 120 hz

    It could be that Sony disabled 120Hz for battery life purposes or other reasons. It could also be that it's just trolling. Is anyone familiar with how this actually works and viable ways of testing it?

    Post The Distortion issue is Software based.

    nomailx this has been discussed at lenght in several forums. Partially, you are right. A fix is possible with a software update but life is never black or white, sdadly. The tech that is fixing distortion in Video mode is Sony's magical stabilization algorithm(parts of it anyway). For a huge...

    Post Battery life Thread

    Undepletable My second week on this gorgeous beast and it keeps giving me reasons to make sweet sweet love to it. Charged after lunch, worked a bit on it, browsing, several calls, music, quite a few pics and slow-mo videos, got home about 4am and had a long, drunk session of GoF2 HD. I...

    Post Xperia z5 premium bend!!

    Junior member does not (always) mean an illiterate blab with no practical knowledge, mate :) Play nice That being said, my Z5P did bend. It's quite usual with large metal phones and enough pressure applied. It was only bent on the Power Button side, so I assume it twisted in my pocket somehow...

    Post Xperia Z5P the conclusion (Really Disappointed)

    From the little info you provided, I can see that your phone barely sleeps. I assume its all the email + other apps constantly syncing in the background and creating wakelocks. charge to full, use as normal and when u provide the screenshots next time, click on the Graph and provide a shot of...

    Post Z5 Premium or hang till the Z6 launches?????? Your opinions

    Big words there, chief ;) Aside from benchmarking tools, there is not a single piece of useful software that can make even last year's generation SoCs sweat. Its purely for bragging rights, maybe extracting huge archives (5 sec difference) and the promised power saving due to the smaller...

    Post Z5 Premium or hang till the Z6 launches?????? Your opinions

    This rumor has been around for quite some time and its considered pure speculation. It is highly unlikely for Sony to create such fragmentation in their top line. THIS is much more likely and realistic :) To answer your question, Its undeniable that SD 820 will bring a certain amount of...
