I think those are Z5 issues. Looking at Z5P impression so far most seems fine.

Fingerprint sensor will not work if either side (your finger or the print sensor) is dirty or wet (common sense ya). Other than that, no issues. Keep charging your phone, after about 2 weeks the battery life will improve a fair bit just like Z3. Do a physical check on your phone as well for cosmetic damages (just in case).
Camera-wise, a lot of people talking about corner softness. Actually all camera have corner softness and its called bokeh. The bigger the aperture, the softer the corner. Do not let that bother you.
Pink tint and pink front cam issue I did not encounter.
Also buy the fastest card you can find (for 4k recording and fast storage & retrieval)
Love this phone and its chrome color ^^

Is 20MB/sec write enough for 4k? Z5 now record in hvec, so the data size should be half the size. |

I'm using SanDisk ultra 128gb class 10 (48mb read/write) class 10. Anyway when you select 4k video to record the phone will prompt you to use at least a class 10 card . I tried recording a 29 minute 4k video into my card and my phone played back all right . So recommend at least a class 10 card .

Class 10 only is not enough, technically a Class 10 will guarantee 10MB/s writing performance.. which is not enough to handle the 4K stream
"Class" classification actually stops at 10, that's why anything faster than Class 10 will still be called Class 10, so you need to look for the other classifications, which is UHS
UHS stands for Ultra High Speed, starts at U1 which is same as Class 10 ( 10MB/s write performance ), next is U3 which guarantee 30MB/s write performance...
Though, a lot of manufacturers will offer higher than 30MB/s that but still promote it as U1 only...
Most manufacturers will not expose the writing performance of the card, only the read.. but most of them will mention it clearly if it was fast enough to be proud of... so if the description does not mention the writing speed, then avoid it...
High performance cards will mention writing speed, and most importantly, see the reviews where a lot of peoples will do benchmarks on it to see how it does in real world...
but take a note, almost 95% of cases, performance on mobile phones will be different than those on a PC, so look for smartphone benchmarks instead of PC ones...

The only 200GB card is also class 10 card, but has 90mb read speed but lower write speed . In general , get at least a class 10 speed card . |

I got my z5p, awesome phone, but I got one issue I cant connect my phone to my pc. It connect,reconnects.. I thought it was the cable os I changed a few times still same problem. Anybody got an idea? My phone charges without any issue on the other hand so I don't believe it's a hardware issue or so I hope.. And my pc reads other stuff effortlessy so it can't be that either..

I am unable to decide if I should get the z5 premium or not. Anyone here who has switched from note 5? If so what are your opinions?

Defrag your pc, scan for malware ,reboot your pc and connect your usb to the main usb port and try again ? |
