The one thing which makes me mad is the lack of headphone jack.
What the f..... we need to use this stupid cable.

@Doministry,
Are you kidding me? You've had at least 1-2yrs from Apple's change from this ... 1 year from 3 other Android manufacturers following suit to prepare for this eventuality. In Fact ... as a former  user, of which :Ericsson: created Bluetooth technology and standards, you've had about 10yrs to know this eventuality was doing to happy someday.
Breathe with me ... Listening to Digital content with Digitial sound that is degraded by converted to Analog sound before it gets to your ears is actually never been a good solution. Sony has done a phenomenal job leading the industry with Amplifiers and great ANC in former smartphones dating back (on Android) as far back as the Z3 lineup ... so hopefully they'll have a solution.
Now I'm aware you're in a band and previously back with the Z2/3/5 you've recorded directly on the Sony smartphone ... are you still doing this? Is there USB-C to 1/4" adapters that would work for say the Guitar and USB-C to Midi connectors?

FYI, very first smartphone vendor to cut analog audio port
It is Moto/Lenovo and another Chinese company named LeEco.
Couple months ahead of Apple iPhone 7 and AirPods introduction.
I don't have problem to cripple analog audio port, barely use it since the day of Xperia Z3 compact anyway.

If I hadn't got my XZ Premium in November I would definitely get the green one. XZ2 is a large phone, it has a bigger screen than my XZ Premium albeit not 4k. Wireless charging. No 3.5" jack is a bummer but it does come with a dongle and another one that allows simultaneous listening and charging will be available. 4k hdr recording. This is a damn good phone. Don't knock it till you've tried it.

I am not sure you know for 100% what you're talking about.
As a musician though, I can tell you one thing: jack and cables aren't going anywhere soon.
They're 100% reliable and top notch quality, otherwise they'd be replaced long time ago.
Geting rid of this connection on phones is just a f... lazyness.
And for the users - a big sh..t with carrying dongles. F.. the dongles, ask the new Mac users.
Bluetooth headsets? Give me a break. I have a pro level headphones, none of these are Bluetooth LOL.
The end of your post I don't get really, what are you talking about...

I have not seen a high end flagship that is this thick in a long time.

It's a disastrous design. Any originality is gone, I was much more impressed with Nokia and Asus at MWC. I had Ericsson, that turned into Sony Ericsson, and I moved on with Sony. Every Sony and/or Ericsson phone I have purchased had a design or feature that no one else could offer. This phone offers copies of stuff other phones do better. It's so damn disappointing. Sony was the anti-iPhone, now it's just another iPhone/Samsung/LG follower, not confident in its own solutions or design. |

They added dual shock like vibrators inside so it vibrates when you listen to music, so that took all the space  Tell me, is there a more usless feature then this ever made in phones world?
