The local Xperia Club in my country also cry about this new design... Don't know what they actually want.
I'm more focus on camera and audio, display stuff.
Device : Xperia 1 II
Headphone : MDR-M1ST + MUC-S12SB1, ATH-DSR9BT, WH-1000XM4
DAC/AMP : PHA-2A |

Bcz we are expecting a lot better design..
XZ2 looks kinda ok type..
For others they always hate sony's rectangular shape so they appreciate the change..
But for sony fans it's sad to see all sony uniqueness gone..
Look at the rear of new devices then look ta the rear of XZ1,XZ,Z5 premuim bla bla and immediately u will notice the difference..Old devices look lot better from rear..
They even change the power button to a ordinary one, fp on the back, no 3.5 mm jack, and not even the design is original.,kinda resembles htc u11 plus..
Btw XZ2 looks great in green color(the best one), black is ok(common choice for everyone), pink is good for Ladies but white looks terrible..😕😕

Sub agrees with me...
Since the prototype was leaked, I said it looks cheap/ugly like E4.
What I dont understand is the fact Compact is usually only 100 cheaper than bigger brother.
But it never has exactly same stuff.
Z3c with plastic frame, cheaper look and less RAM. It does not look glass to me.
Z5c looks way cheaper than z5, also less RAM and no heat pipe.
Xc without IP68, no SD820, no 13MP selfie ( lack of space probably), cheap built.
XZ1c : 32GB, no metal body , same selfie downgrade
Difference could be a bit more... Maybe 200,00 |

It seems like the Sony mobile management is doing this move on purpose. The Xperia flagships are getting less attractive from generation to generation. These new flagships are neither attractive from a design perspective nor hardware wise. Declining market share due to unattractive models as reason to sell off the mobile devison of Sony.
If I'm not wrong Sony is making more profit with seeling camera sensors to other OEMs than with selling smartphones. They should probably just sell their smartphone business and concentrate their resources on their display and sensor businesses. |

The moment of something I would have say 'Perfect Disaster'
Original Vivaz and NXT design even Loop Surface are millions time better.
I mean yes, I did really wish for trim off some bezel but not rework for all of it.
Who has signed and make pass this work of design, I would love to read about their inspiration.

The pricing of the XZ2 and XZ2C has been revealed by a Swedish site and also confirm the headphone jack is gone.
Sony Xperia XZ2 price is at 7990 kronor, while XZ2C is set at 5990 kronor.

Green and pink XZ2 looks really good to me.

What’s worst of all, it would not be a problem they f**k up design like they did with this one if they are about to change it next year, but the problem is they will be recycling this crap another 2-3 years lol.
XZ2 looks decent in the colors other then black, at least on those photos, but XZ2c is disaster.

Good efforts of colours team, but to me overall design is bloody fail to impress!
Still hopefully new design can generate of sales to new potential customers (not me this time!)

Sony designers- Sir, people want new design with less bezel
Sony CEO - give them new design,our next model will have new design
Designer- But we dont have much idea now
CEO - then Copy someone's design man
Designer - sir htc's design was quite good, we need to copy this..Also need to copy no 3.5 mm jack, but we are sony, what about our uniqueness??
CEO - oh That's right, then put the fp scanner middle of the rear and camera at weird position.. then people will instantly regonise as a sony device..😂😂
We are unique man!!😁😁😁😁

Honestly guys
What SONY's management cares about mostly is the sales numbers, and from the initial comments from major anti SONY tech sites "either writers or commenters" and how much they liked it and how much they are feeling it's a step in the right direction if this is also translated to sales it will be a hit that SONY mobile needs from long time ago
Regards the XZ2 compact, I feel that it's back FPS and camera and sensors are way better than that of the normal XZ2 |

Well I for one will buy XZ2 provided:
1. It's waterproof and has microSD slot.
2. The price should be around 500-550$
Otherwise I'll wait for IFA |

The green colour looks amazing to me. The compact is growing on me a bit.
I don't think that there will be a Premium flagship at MWC, but I hope it happened so I don't have to wait for 6 more months.
Daily Drivers: Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S22 Ultra, and iPhone 14 Pro Max
Secondary: vivo X80 Pro
Still using as a backup: Xperia XZ2
Still using (not as much): Galaxy Tab A 8.0 |
