HTC and Sony are the two most underrated companies ever. both are great phone but the xz premium takes the slight edge for me for the headphone jack, display, battery, and software. and camera if you learn to use manual mode
completely agreed, alot of people use "samsung" and "android" interchangebly , as if its the same thing . It's not their fault, it's just that it's all they know, and it dominates the market. It's unfortunate that people don't know about the other companies that make amazing phones like sony and htc. All they know is samsung and apple
The *U11* however is both CDMA and GSM compatible, whereas the Sony is only GSMA. The HTC "Sense" is another continual draw to the brand. HTC & Sony are my two choice brands over a/thing else in the marketplace. *EDIT to my post* ...the HTC with all it's apps is the most customizable phone out there, and as far as the difference in battery size, there's not enuf difference to really measure. People don't run their batteries down to *ZERO* unless by accident.
both phones are amazing much better than the s8 and + for me camera looks better imo and the features are amazing the only thing i dont like about the htc u11 is the lack of 3.5mm jack (i know that in the future we might not care about this but i do ) and the squeeze shortcuts isnt my favorite thing on sony side i am actually quite bored with the desing all my sony devices (not counting erricson) have the exact design so its kind of boring but i love that it looks stylish as always would love a new design though but i like bezels cuz they are practical gives you a place for your thumbs.
well, curiosity is it's own answer but to be more succinct.... a phone, a gee-whiz pocket computer are handy and cool things. but holy katz! some of you need to get out of the house. You, tariq, yeah, maybe you're making a couple cents on the click but come on! I'm a professional videographer and photographer and don't get as twisted about cameras as some of these people get about cameras on a PHONE!! I was in Honalulu last year and I was walking around holding my D810 up to my head and talking into it. no one gets the joke. And i won't even touch the whole bevel - no bevel circle-jerk! In any event, Im supposed to get my XZ premo on sunday. Wanna know why? I shoot a Sony a6300 in 4k when the need arises. I make my own 4k content. zipping that from camera to phone sounds like a no brainer...... any more questions? woo hoo!
Quick Expert Reviews well that's my only concern because I always take pictures in dark places like clubs.. and I had the first Xperia Z and it was awful.. now im using S6.. but I really love to get the XZP.. if you send me some photos using the flash.. it would be much appreciated.. thank u for the quick reply :)
Usman Tariq yea i know what u mean because i got the galaxy s6 and it's amazing at night when i use the flash... though I want to change the brand :D because the s8 looks similar to s6.. and I like the Sony.. Ill try to take photos in the store using XZp and decide .. thanks:)
+Hariz Nonis In regards to rear camera what kind of picture taking are we talking about? Premium is better for moving objects and pictures in poor weather conditions, where U11 is better in low light due to f1.7 aperture. In terms of battery life, Premium is waaaay better, wins hands down, and that's even before you put on stamina mode.
Quick Expert Reviews I just want a camera that captures details better, and is sharper overall. The Xperia camera tends to be noisy, especially in low light. But if the battery life is that much better, than I'll have to make a tough decision.
+Hariz Nonis I had Xperia handsets since Z, up until XZ Premium now. They've fixed the noise and purple haze issue with XZ already, but I have to admit that they've mastered this with XZ Premium. It really makes a lot of difference. The U11 camera sensor is very similar to S8 unit. Now I know that S8 captures more light, however what I don't like about Samsung phones, is that the pictures look very soft, like "milky soft" lol
+MrWalker1000 There was a video on XZ Premium that was showing off 4K and HDR however I found it pointless as I wasn't capable to record at 4K with the equipment I've got, but I'll try and source something to do it :)
alright thanks. Display is another one of those big things that needs to be compared just like the camera. since I would argue they both have the best display technology.
+Maky Jaki Tv I personally went for XZ Premium. I used to be HTC fan and that screen is brilliant, but not in the same league as 4K HDR Display on XZ Premium.
+Maky Jaki Tv I've started my whole Android journey with HTC Desire and HTC Sensation. Always preferred them over, let's say, Samsung. My last HTC was One M7 which I've loved. I couldn't afford One X back then but absolutely loved it. But got M7 later on and never regretted it. U11 is absolutely mind blowing, and with recent updates (1080@60) it's really where it has to be, but I prefer HDR screen and DualShock 4 native support over squeezing my phone to launch the camera. 4K is nice on the handset but the screen is still too small to truly embrace it. Luckily the Oreo update on XZ Premium has further enhanced the speakers so they're waaay louder. Not yet on par with, HTC but definitely getting there.
The HTC U11 only comes with 4 gigs of ram and the Sony XZ premium is 4k all the time ,not only in 4k situations! I know you slipped up a little and caught yourself saying that HTC has ever had an AMOLED screen technology ! Gotta right a script for yourself to at least keep track brother! Good review comparison though
+Chris Gardner Thanks Chris! I do like a good criticism, as it allows me to grow :) Truth be told, I forgot the model name when I mentioned HTC, but HTC A9 was the one I wanted to mention, as it has an AMOLED screen. XZ Premium is not 4K all the time sadly, it's only on when 4K content is played, exactly the same way Z5 Premium was, even though Snapdragon 835 could potentially be able to have it on constantly. And that's official Sony UK statement (which doesn't mean they can't be wrong, but that's where I obtain my info from). I love the script idea, thank you Brother!
+kyriakos The S8+ single mono speaker is louder than XZ Premium, but it lacks bass, it lacks "punch". And obviously it's a single speaker that's easily covered by the palm of your hand.
@@QuickExpertReviews True, but I know of nobody with a glass back phone that doesn't have a case on it. And I'm baffled why companies even make 'em with the glass back really...they're always covered with a case because they're too slippery and they would need to be continually wiped off after each use!
+Trish S I went for XZ Premium, I can't have a phone that's not capable of recording videos in 60 FPS. I also went for Premium due to DualShock 4 pairing. I know 4K on a phone is a gimmick but I prefer this, rather than squeezing my handset. On top of this I'm in the same boat with pictures. But it all obviously depends on one needs :)
jad hzim agree, I've always loved HTC for that. ironically, the early HTC phones were plagued with audio problems. i remember my MDA was horrid , and the sequel to that phone also had major issues. I was so happy when they fixed it because they went above and beyond :) p.S. my HTC m8 is my favorite so far, but we'll see if that lasts after I get the u11 ;)
+dreanki I was always an hTC fanboy, had MDA Vario, HTC TyTN, HTC Desire, HTC Sensation, HTC One M7 (that had AMAZING speakers), but then I jumped ship on to Sony Z, Z1, Z2, Z3, Z5, X, XZ, XZ Premium, and never looked back. As an overall package Sony is more suitable for me, but that's me :) Love U11 sound quality
Quick Expert Reviews admittedly, I've never used another brand except for briefly using friends phones. but personally, htc's designs and options are usually aligned with my needs and wants. I still haven't found a phone I'm willing to give up HTC for, not for lack of looking though.
Quick Expert Reviews that's not what you said in the video. you said the phone in your hand had 6 GB of RAM right after you showed the screen where it said otherwise. your review unit wad the 64GB which is only 4GB of memory.

MrWalker1000 And it records videos in 60 FPS as opposed to HTC 30 fps :O
more expensive but better overall. XZ premium has good sound quality as well
completely agreed, alot of people use "samsung" and "android" interchangebly , as if its the same thing . It's not their fault, it's just that it's all they know, and it dominates the market. It's unfortunate that people don't know about the other companies that make amazing phones like sony and htc. All they know is samsung and apple

xz premium all the way!
After watching this video, I've made up my mind. Definitely gonna get XZ Premium Black version!
Just waiting for the price to come down a little...
Usman Tariq Congratulations!
Quick Expert Reviews Thanks!
Liked and subscribed!
thanks guy, I love your comparizing
+Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida Thank you!
im curious about the passion some of you have for a pocket telephone / computer?
havocproltd Why?
well, curiosity is it's own answer but to be more succinct....
a phone, a gee-whiz pocket computer are handy and cool things.

woo hoo!
havocproltd "Making a couple of cents on the click", what does that even mean?
havocproltd Taking to D810? You sound like David Cooper from Twin Peaks talking to his dictaphone!
havocproltd I've just started watching Twin Peaks
Love it goes in HTC camera app setting and doesn't scroll down yeah there's no fps setting but there's other stuff
you got yourself a subscriber
+A B I salute you!
hammer down!
would u plz tell me if using the camera flash on XZP in dark places is good as samsung devices?
+Ihab Khalil I can't make a direct comparison, but it looks like it's on par with XZ which means it's bright enough and natural.
Quick Expert Reviews well that's my only concern because I always take pictures in dark places like clubs.. and I had the first Xperia Z and it was awful.. now im using S6.. but I really love to get the XZP.. if you send me some photos using the flash.. it would be much appreciated.. thank u for the quick reply :)
Ihab Khalil I'll suggest you to buy S8, if low light photography is your concern.

Ihab Khalil Yes you should always test it first and then decide!
As someone who worries about battery life, and REAR camera performance, which of these two do you recommend?
+Hariz Nonis In regards to rear camera what kind of picture taking are we talking about? Premium is better for moving objects and pictures in poor weather conditions, where U11 is better in low light due to f1.7 aperture.

Quick Expert Reviews how many hours of soț you get from your xz premium?
Hi, for you what is the best speaker?
+David Conrado HTC U11 has better and louder speakers. Bass is more punchy and sound is crispier. However I personally went with XZ Premium :)
How's the in call ui of both the phones? Can you give soem screenshots? Personally I love the full screen caller photos of iPhone and xiaomi..
can you do a display comparison between the two using 4k and hdr content?
+MrWalker1000 There was a video on XZ Premium that was showing off 4K and HDR however I found it pointless as I wasn't capable to record at 4K with the equipment I've got, but I'll try and source something to do it :)
Okay. Well still do a comparison using same wallpapers and video
alright thanks. Display is another one of those big things that needs to be compared just like the camera. since I would argue they both have the best display technology.
Sony vs Htc for media consumption who is better help me.
+Maky Jaki Tv I personally went for XZ Premium. I used to be HTC fan and that screen is brilliant, but not in the same league as 4K HDR Display on XZ Premium.
Quick Expert Reviews Its true Htc phones have been the best before.I remember the htc one x beast but today it is lagging behind.

+Chris Gardner And yes you're absolutely right about 4GB of RAM which can be even seen in the video. Missed the "6GB on selected Asian markets", bit.
Quick Expert Reviews u11 has a 6GB Ram but with 128gb internal
Chris Gardner speaks some bullshit.
Sony sin!!!!
The previous U ultra was the worst one but this is magnificent but the classic Sony is a win
u11
the speakers of sony are loud?
+kyriakos Not as loud as U11, but louder than XZ or Z5
Quick Expert Reviews with the speakers of s8 plus?
+kyriakos The S8+ single mono speaker is louder than XZ Premium, but it lacks bass, it lacks "punch". And obviously it's a single speaker that's easily covered by the palm of your hand.
Overall which one is better between s8plus and sony premium? I have to choose one to buy. Thanks anyway.

+Tomek_PL It's True!

I think the sample photos from the xz premium were better
+Trish S I went for XZ Premium, I can't have a phone that's not capable of recording videos in 60 FPS. I also went for Premium due to DualShock 4 pairing.

Quick Expert Reviews You made a great choice, I'm also gonna get XZ Premium in black.
Quick Expert Reviews what are talking about? U11 have also fhd 60 fps and htc camera is superior to Xperia s anyday 😉😉
+Tady 20072000 The video was done before U11 got a software update allowing for 60fps videos :)
Quick Expert Reviews which is the better phone for you?
nothing can come close to htc u11 speakers
+jad hzim Nothing ever came close to any HTC speakers, starting with One M7. I miss that phone...
jad hzim agree, I've always loved HTC for that. ironically, the early HTC phones were plagued with audio problems. i remember my MDA was horrid , and the sequel to that phone also had major issues. I was so happy when they fixed it because they went above and beyond :)
p.S. my HTC m8 is my favorite so far, but we'll see if that lasts after I get the u11 ;)
+dreanki I was always an hTC fanboy, had MDA Vario, HTC TyTN, HTC Desire, HTC Sensation, HTC One M7 (that had AMAZING speakers), but then I jumped ship on to Sony Z, Z1, Z2, Z3, Z5, X, XZ, XZ Premium, and never looked back.

Matija Atelšek ...quality is crap
😕U have 4GB ram variant of HTC U11 & you're telling 6 GB !!! 😈 Confusing .
+Vedant Deshpande 6GB is available on Asian markets, I've clarified that in video description.
OK Thanks for Clearing Confusion ☺
Also get your fact right the HTC has 4gb ram
+Aleck Maccarone And 6GB in selected Asian Markets, which I've clarified in the video description, however thanks for staying on point!
um... 6GB of RAM? methinks not. is this an "expert review"?
+ethos83 6GB on selected markets
Quick Expert Reviews that's not what you said in the video. you said the phone in your hand had 6 GB of RAM right after you showed the screen where it said otherwise. your review unit wad the 64GB which is only 4GB of memory.
ethos83 Yes, you're right I made a mistake. Thanks for catching that, I'll update video description.
htc u 11 better ♡
erik daddo lmao how...
