Has there ever been a sound alert when the battery is fully charged? I can't recall ever having that feature.
there is definitely a magnifying glass in text input window. once you type a bunch of things, tap into the input window on one of the words. you'll get a little handle. tap and drag that little handle around to where you want it and the magnifying glass will appear to help you position the cursor.
Of course. On XZ I've had this feature - on 100% there was a nice sound beeing played.
And I remember enabling it somehow and now I forgot where was it.
The magnyfying glass - that's what I am talking about.
I SEE NO MAGNIFYING GLASS. I see the little handle in the shape of a drop, but no glass!!!!

Press and hold the droplet and move your finger to get to the desired letter or number. I see no magnifying glass too, but it seems magnifying glass serves no purpose to me unless you are short-sighted. |

Well. It has a huge purpose. In many situations I have a very long text where navigating is a f.... pain without it.
Plus - very very often my finger is covering exactly the place which I operate in.
So no magnifying glass in 8.0.0???

When you press and hold the droplet you can shift your thumb and drag it to your comfortable (and natural thumb) position which I just found out too and SUPER LIKE, so it will solve your finger covering issue.
TLDR: Press & hold on droplet, shift anywhere your thumb or finger comfortable to drag |

Thanks. It makes sense. Still missing the glass though.

No. I talk about the magnifying glass when navigating through the text input boxes.
@mogooo
Looks like the magnifying glass is removed in Oreo...

A french website review of XZ1
https://www.lesnumeriques.com[....]ny-xperia-xz1-p40787/test.html
The same praise and complain from other reviewers
STRONG POINTS
A pretty well calibrated screen.
A correct autonomy.
Good photo performance in daylight.
Android Oreo.
WEAK POINTS
A design that begins to date.
Occupancy rate of the screen a little thin.
Photo processing to review, especially at night. |

XZ1 is now at $599.99. I've never seen a Sony flagship phone's price drop this quickly.
