  • Official Android Pie running on Xperia XZ Premium.
    What's good:
    The camera gets the new UI from XZ3
    Speakers feel louder at maximum volume
    Performance is the same as Oreo
    What's not cool:
    No gestures!!
    No improvement in camera quality
    Battery backup isn't good (heavy battery drain while the phone is in standby)
    Nightlight/blue light filter not included
    No double tap to wake
    Apart from new icons dropdown notification panel (which you may like or not) and vertical animations, nothing is new with the UI, feels pretty much like Oreo
    -4K no longer works with Prime video
    Timecode:
    Intro:0:00
    Android 9 Pie tour and what's new: 1:53
    New camera UI: 9:19
    Do we get portrait mode?: 11:28
    1080p super slow-mo: 12:45
    We still have themes: 15:06
    Notch support on Pie: 17:40
    Battery life: 18:49
    VOLTE support: 21:26
    4K support on RUclips: 22:41
    4K support on Prime video: 22:56
    Concluding thoughts: 23:39
    Please check Sony mobile forums before updating, there are many bugs with the Pie update.

    I sold my XZ Premium and bought Huawei Mate 20 pro from Optus, and my second phone is S9+ couldn't be happier, I had the update before you and bastards actually went through the effort to remove features from XZ Premium's pie build like Blue light filter, double tap to wake and there is no side sense no new wallpapers, After years and years of being a Sony fanboy and loyalty I say Fu** you Sony and goodbye because you have no respect for your customers.

      Sir, I purchased Sony Xperia XZ Premium mobile phone in October 2018. In November 2018, I was opted by Sony to upgrade version 8.0 to version 9.0 (Pie). After up-gradation, Its "4K HDR performance" totally vanished. Now I am writing letters to MD Sony India and Chairman Sony Japan but they are not replacing my mobile phone.

    Hey, bro! I'm not trying to annoy you with these comments, but I've been watching the rest of this video, and you mentioned that Sony didn't change the image quality of the camera? I don't find anything wrong with the image quality, and you also mentioned about the lowlight photos being bad? I've taken loads of lowlight photos with my XZ Premium since the Pie update and the lowlight photos have turned out great for me! But if at any time I wanna brighten up dark areas a little, I just edit the picture.

    I am happy to get a wider field of view for slo mo. I didn't like how cropped it was, though I think they should've used different labels than resolution for that.
    4k HDR on RUclips hasn't been working on any phone soon after they gave that ability since RUclips would be very laggy with asynchronous sound. Really bummed about the Amazon situation as I was watching Jack Ryan and it looked fantastic.
    I agree. Battery was terrible after pie but after 2 weeks of having it now, it lasts as long and I've noticed it charges significantly faster from 0-30%. Also the rest of the camera features should've been there but they did add an option where you could toggle "image quality" over "correction for distortion". I haven't seen much improvement but I haven't tested it out fully yet either. It sucks about the themes because thats a fantastic option Android has as well as double tap to wake. Seems you are frustrated with SONY and rightfully so. My experience with Pie has been quite fast and infact apps open a bit quicker. The problem right now is a lack of other apps supporting Pie properly.

    • @TechGuyCharlie
      @TechGuyCharlie  5 лет назад

      Yeah bro, you could actually see the difference when it switched from 1080p to Ultra HD :D Fingers crossed for Prime Video, although I highly doubt Amazon will update the app only for Xperia users, they usually focus more on iPhones and not to mention there is no other phone in the market with a 4K display.
      Frustrated? Nope, but highly disappointed, XZ Premium has been by far the worst treated phone by Sony when it comes to updates, tons of bugs and issues, I've owned every Sony Xperia flagship phone since the very first X10, back in the good old days Sony would go out of the line and gave us quality updates, I remember how X10 got updated to Gingerbread and it was FANTASTIC, the Z Ultra to Lollipop, Z3 to Marshmallow, every time you'd update an old phone you got to see new UI from the latest Xperia phones and there were so many new features. But now that isn't the case.
      Check out Sony's own forum, its full of threads, people complaining about the update

      Tech Guy Charlie thanks for the insight. It's true, though also back then more noticeable features of Android were added with updates. There isn't any difference with 8 and 9 apart from the navigation bar. Even in the pie beta SONY didn't like it since it wasn't available on XZ2 even.
      Knowing its the same sensor, a lot of things could've made the camera better with an update but that's business. It sucks. For now though, my phone in 2017 still gives me all the same good stuff and I still take really detailed macro shots and accurate colours. I'll be holding on to this phone for a few more years until mid rangers catch up because I still really enjoy the headphone jack

    May I ask what size is the UI in your phone? Mine was on default size, also font default, and the top toggle bar only showed 2 rows of toggle options even when pulled down, and I see you have 3 rows. I now set it to small to get 3, this update is a bit of a nightmare. Also have you noticed Netflix is 720 p only now on Xperia Xz premium? It actually changed mid year before the update, Netflix no longer supports 1080p or higher on Xperia Xz premium.

    They fr removed my fav feature; the customisability of the system UI (yeah, including the cute spinning settings gear you used to activate it) was totally removed unless you use Nox as your homescreen because it allows you to access it, which I luckily had already. They never got rid of force-peeking on apps, but the fact that you can customise DND and just use that to stop peeking is a workaround. Inconvenient workaround seeing as I now need TWO different customisations of DND but eh... The auto rotate bit is good though. I'd like the media button to be something you can move back to the top or the left, especially because Sony markets it's phones in a way that screams "HEY! WE SUPPORT REMOTE PLAY!!!". You'd think they'd give you a way to get rid of the popup entirely at times, even, but clearly not? I'm pretty much losing faith in Sony at this point, they don't seem to care what their customers want and oh BOY the amount of faults they get with ports. It's clear with PlayStation 4 and clear with the recent Xperias. My favourite Xperia remains the T 😴

      Sony has disabled night mode/ night light option on XZ Premium for some reason, so there is a little hack that did to enable the default night light option on Oreo, I made a video about it, so when you update to Pie, that feature will be removed and right now unless you root your phone, there is no way to install night mode/ night light back again :(

    Where are the gestures? That is the big difference from 8.0/8.1 vs 9. The new features in the OS makes it a much better intuitive device. Don't blame Google. This sounds like Sony pulled a Samsung and got lazy.

    • @TechGuyCharlie
      @TechGuyCharlie  5 лет назад

      Man, even Samsung does not do this kind of thing, The S8 is getting a new UI with Pie same as their current S9 and here in Sony world not only did they remove gestures, but double tap to wake and night light are also missing from Sony's Pie build 😂 the UI is also identical to Nougat/Oreo It's like a Half-baked job and yet fanboys are praising Sony all over for such a sloppy job.

  • @rio121rahmansyah
    @rio121rahmansyah 5 лет назад

    I agree abou the con especially double tap to wake up because literally, xz1 and xz prem is like Sony want try the experiment on both this device which I like (because this device is the last used omnibalance design). Doesn't mean I don't want to upgrade to xz3 or Xperia 1, but I'd really want to have a usefulness feature for my premium phone. From the z line until xz, it has double tap to wake up but now it's gone, it's hard for me to buy it. I never but another brand because don't have any interest even they have much feature but Sony really make me sad with it :(

    - I cannot setup the camera key at the side to open a custom app...
    - if you got a phone case covering your display... it automatically locks your phone :/ I cant record having the display covered with the case... the sensor is not turn-off able

      with the XZ1 and XZ1 compact,sony made 2 types of firmwares. RxC and RxB (x=number). Depending on where you got your phone from it will come with a different firmware. Most phones bought in carriers come with RxC,but not all.(T-Mobile comes with it!) I bought my XZ1 from a tech store and it came with an RxB. EVERY RxC VARIANT IS UPDATED TO ANDROID PIE! The update could drop any moment,but after so many negative reviews,I hope that sony listens and comes out with some improvements over what we're seeing right now
