Sony has updated its flagships piecemeal – the XZ added 2160p video
capture that the X Performance was missing, the XZs improved the camera
yet again and now the Xperia XZ1 upgrades the chipset to 2017 standards.
Did Sony cover everything you wished for with this latest iteration
of X phone? The obvious thing that it’s missing is a bezel-less design
that is standard for late 2017. A dual camera may be another, but by the
sound of it the new Pixels will stick to one cam per side so dual
cameras are not yet mandatory.
Still, we haven’t forgotten that Sony has been the one pushing things
we now considered standard – things like waterproofing and stereo
speakers. While those are no longer unique, no other brand has touched
Xperia’s 960fps slow-motion mode.
And love it or hate it, the Xperia design is certainly recognizable.
Plus, the Triluminos display (now with HDR10 support) is one of the best
LCDs on the market. We don’t mind so much that it doesn’t have QHD
resolution.

Okay, your turn – is the XZ1 the premium device it claims to be or is it a dud?
