Wow, the XZ2 eats the 109 DXOMark P20 Pro for breakfast.

With a little delay of two days I received my XZ2!
Oh man, whatta gorgeous device!
Reminds me of Sony Ericsson's golden age!
Now it's time to setup and transfer my stuf!

I have to say, the screen is gorgeous. Makes the screen of my Z3TC look pale.

yip, even from the XZ1 Compact the Screen is more vivid and handles the direct sunlight better (the odd time we get it in Ireland)

Everyone who looks at this phone is impressed by the screen.
It's so clear, vivid and colorful!
Just one day back to Sony and I'm in love again!

The battery certainly isn't a problem lol. 10h sot is impressive, though.
My average sot using XZ2 is at about 7 hrs and 30 min or more.
This is my best one yet. It is insane for me, that a phone with 3180 mAh battery has such great battery optimisation.

Managed to squeeze nearly 4 days
Stamina mode really makes the battery last

I don't like the new stamina as much as I liked the Z series stamina mode. Because, the new one tends to slow the phone. I only use it when I'm travelling or forgot to bring a charger on a trip, I guess.

The Sony's old stamina is better than project treble and Google's stuff.
That's just the "economy mode" of Google with "Stamina" name on it.

Oh, I thought Stamina mode that was brought to nougat and later doesn't have anything to do with google's economy mode.
--------------------
Despite its small sensor size, small resolution, and downgraded aperture, XZ2's front camera is very good. It looks very natural, unlike those chinese/korean front cameras that has fake colours, smoothing effect, and bad dynamic range and exposure.
