    I am hoping to top post this comment: You all want to know which device has the best display and you want my rating. Here is my answer - NOTHING is THE BEST! Each display has goods and bads. Each display has its own attributes that make it WORTH WHILE. I don't give a rating because that is NONSENSE. LCD has its own advantages and so does amoled. As far as LCD displays go, this is one of the best BUT, it doesn't get very bright and I don't care for Sony's calibration. You all need to FORGET ABOUT what is THE BEST display. It doesn't exist! All that matters is what I show you so that you can form your OWN OPINION. Sorry for the caps lol. I was emphasizing.

      @WondersChannel 7 лет назад +3

      Rather, I've seen reviewers of Sony, when this came out, say "does anyone really need a 4K screen on a phone?", then when they made subsequent phones back to 1080p, they were all "the screen is only Full HD though". Basically Sony can't win when half the 'unbiased' reviewers are paid up by crApple or Samsung.

    actually the finger print sensor is awesome, when calibrating just make sure you try to scan a wide range of your finger. if you just keep tapping in the same place it will only register that. i noticed that i just had to remember the specific placement of my thumb in order for it to work. otherwise the sensor work perfect just a bit of tweaking.

    • @jaynjuguna
      @jaynjuguna 7 лет назад +2

      gagongflip389 I agree...when I get read errors it's because I placed a part of my thumb on the sensor that I didn't scan during the initial setup.

    The thing about 4k display is that it's really not meant for phones, not even phablets. maybe for bigger tablets like ipad pro etc. Sony phones are really underrated. Also them leaving quick charge is a weird thing /: even tho their phones last longer but still. Great in depth review, sis 😆👌 kudos to dbrand robots too

    @agnidiptahomroy8656 8 лет назад +4

    You didn't turn the adaptive brightness off, if u turn it off, you will be able to understand how bright it looks. And it's fingerprint sensor is just perfect, faster than galaxy s7. Yes if u dip it inside the water for a long period of time, then primarily it's fingerprint sensor will not respond, but after a few seconds it will respond once u clean it up. And after the camera update for z5 premium, z5 premium is able to record 4k videos upto 53 mins, without heating up tremendously, but warming up

    • @missnyleiram921

      I'm quite surprised with the heating she mentioned. I own the smaller Xperia Z5 Compact and it doesn't heat up any more than a Snapdragon 801 device. Given the bigger footprint of the Premium, I thought it would be even cooler, but well, I guess it's a case by case thing.

    I work in the high end media, & I'd personally say that it will be at LEAST five years before 4K starts making it's move. AT LEAST. Full HD will still be a dominant platform for many many years, even when 4K does start to take over. Think of it as DVD Vs BluRay. BluRay is the dominant platform, or at least it is trying to be, but DVD is still the one that the masses have. It's down to money. 4K still costs a huge amount of cash to create content in the industry, films etc, as all the huge film cameras & tech are still Full HD, so it will take years for everything to be replaced...if totally ever.

      By the way, the OIS in rear camera knocks the other flagship device's out there! also your lighting is somewhat warm? because when I watch this video in full screen the z5 Premium display is too much bluish (cool@10k kelvin).

    Z5 Premium is a beast one of the most powerful phones ever made, sadly it is limited by the Snapdragon 810, but it still does handle all the rendering process so well, heating up a lil bit? doesn't matter it is worth it. No phone can compare to it's resolution and camera. If what you want is to be safe with hardware that doesn't put your phone to the test go buy samsumg, if you want a phone that exceeds the limits buy sony.

    First a big thank you to Erica, as you have made it possible for me to get into the know of mobile tech.
    Your reviews I always find clear, easy to follow and down to earth.
    Just like with all your reviews, you keep it real.
    Very good job.
    keep up the good work.
    God bless.

    I have the Xperia Z5 (E6683) and you're right. Fingerprint scanner doesn't work sometimes unless I wipe it off. But it doesn't happen very often.

    The things is, the industry is not very happy about 4K video & is not a huge supporter of it yet. Only the TV manufacturers are really pushing 4K hoping that the industry will follow their lead, which they will over the next few years as it becomes more popular. But this phone is 4K 'READY', for when it DOES become common. This is the only phone that supports 4K, the others are lagging well behind until the media industry fully supports 4K. But Full HD 1080p is STILL by far, the industry's chosen platform. Be patient ;-)

    this screen makes a lot of sense when you are close to it, like in an oculus rift.
    It must be pretty nice to watch content in that screen with G's cardboard or whatever. Even if the content is 720p, you would see the visual downgrade but still wont see the pixels that make the image in front of your eyes.
    btw, nice image stabilization sony.

    I have the Sony Z5 Compact and I am sorry to say that I have not expereince the same experience .besides the heating up sometimes ,this phone is excellent .but I enjoyed your video and how well you explained it . I have a question , Can I ask what kind of microphone are you using on your recording camera ? I have the same one as well, thanks

  • @bradye21playsIndieHorror

    The phone is probably overheating because of that skin. I've tried two cases with a temperature app running. One heated the phone significantly, the other (Tudia) lowered the temperatures. The speakers are slightly quieter than other phones but produce really good quality. Also the sound quality is amazing with earbuds. I had the same issues with the fingerprint sensor but I think I just needs to be calibrated a certain way. Looking forward to the Marshmallow update. Subscribed!

    The sensor works with one finger impressions not to two different fingers impressions to the same hand. Because it's different oblivious. So don't say that sometimes the sensor impressions don't work. Sorry.

    And also rest of it when it comes to UHD. Im SW engineer focused on Android and Linux based STBs and been working with 4K capable devices. All of them do have options to set output mode to HDMI up to 4K. But on 4K UI is always upscaled 1080p to 4K. Personally, I think there's no need for 4K UI. And consider that rendering 4K UI all the time would have direct impact on CPU and GPU.
    When it comes to Netflix, 4K will be distributed only to officially approved devices by Netflix. Maybe Z5 Premium is not on that list? :)

    My Z3V also had thermal overheating issues with 4k video setting too. I would use the gps for 30 minutes, get to my destination, and anything warmer than 85F, sunny summer day forget about it. I had to place the z3 in a cooler to lower its temperature before I could use 4k. imho they should make the case back out of aluminum so it can serve a functional role as a heatsink to help dissipate heat. IIRC glass generally is a thermal insulator. Other than that, it was a GREAT phone. I am a little disappointed though that Sony didn't address this.

  • @kasukulu18
    @kasukulu18 8 лет назад

    The heating is wrong, because I remember when I bought mine I even recorded up to 30 minutes in 4K without heating as I have seen other people trying it out which is better than Samsung. And for brightness when I had mine for the first week I was so stressed about the brightness to then I realised you can adjust it in setting => display => tick adaptive brightness and it will get way more brighter and will be able to adjust the setting itself when indoor or outdoor.

    i think 4K display on smartphone is the newest thing ever happened, sony came very earlier with this guy .On my observation 4K is going to be very popular but when they going to compare each other by different companies with good optimisation about visual quality and battery use .

    In fact, the first phone video online in which I think a complaint from a fingerprint button and also with the performance of the machine. Everyone said that the high temperatures in the past no longer exist, but a little bit because Sony developed a pipeline to ventilate the phone processor and said it solved the problem differences between accuracy is not as you remember I think it will be and clear it as the same thing when you see the video on RUclips less accurately or higher Being probably correct in that it
    In general review good thank you

    I'm surprised to hear that the fingerprint sensor is hit and miss. z5 compact here, and the sensor is awesome. Thousands of unlocks and it is 100 %. The only time it might not work is wet or dirty fingertips. OR when I use part of the finger that wasn't scanned as part of the calibration. And to me that is great. I don't want it unlocking every time I touch it. I purposely only scanned certain parts of each of only three fingers. That way it stays locked when I check the time.
