^if i can afford it!! i am thinking i should sell my XZ now so i can get the most money for it... by May it won't be worth much. and even then i may have to wait a few months for the price of the XZP to drop a bit. i'm predicting an $800 pricetag.. ouch.

This is a nice upgrade to my Z5 Premium. I was forced to get it when my Z Ultra died but now it looks like the timing is prefect. Luckily I didn't buy the XZ as my Z5P is still new then. I will probably wait a little bit for the price to go down as I am in no rush and I'm still happy with my Z5P. |

Few tidbits from whitepapers:
It's using UFS memory
Dimensions are TBD
It's running Bluetooth 5 which is TBD
Supports most of the popular RAW picture formats which suggests that it will be able to open RAW's straight from camera.

Definitely getting an XZ Premium and that deep sea black looks amazing. Did anyone see if it'll launch with Google Assistant?
I'm so happy 'cause today
I've found my friends ...
They're in my head

Oh wow. i haven't looked at the whitepaper yet but if it can output RAW photos that would be amazing. I wonder if shutter speeds will be upgraded too and we can have more than 1 second.
@xperiajunkie - haven't seen any official word about it but Google has already announced it's rolling out google assistant to non-Pixel marshmallow/nougat devices in the coming weeks. So i'd be surprised if it doesn't have it out of the box and if not, it's just a simple update away.

The XZ Premium whitepaper listed LTE networks
support only Category 11 which translate to 600Mbps
while slide in press conference demo show 1Gbps speed (Category 16)
Hopefully just typo

Sometimes they just copy an old WP and just do some changes.. a lot of times this happens specially with the first version of the WP.

If it had rounded edges & 6GB of RAM this would have been perfect. Nevertheless this is great..hoping to see SONY turn around things this year. They better market the crap out of the slo-mo capture.

If it had rounded edges it wouldn't be a Sony. It would look like everything else out there. I personally like the squared edges.. it makes it a Sony. yes, it makes the bezels look bigger, but I personally never had an issue with them.
6GB would have been nice but it's not necessary at this point.
The slo-mo capture is amazing. That and the bigger pixel size and predictive capture are great too.
Camera, SD835, and 4K HDR screen are the reasons i want to upgrade from my XZ.
I am curious how well the battery will last given the new SOC and a 4K HDR screen. I Look forward to the battery tests!

Is this like the Z5 Premium where only a few supported apps could use the 4K resolution or is it 4k completely?
I rather have it like the previous Premium but with more supported apps. Who wants to play stuttering games at 4K anyway?
As for the design itself, which I find more redefined over the XZ. However, I don't like the big top and bottom bezels. It doesn't have to be like the other phones but just slightly smaller than it is right now would have been great.
One last thing I would want is Sony to provide high-quality headphones to further justify the premium name and premium price tag we can expect from this.
For me this is a day 1 purchase.
