    Wait, hold up. Didn't you guys complain about the "bloatware" on Samsung's devices but now you're using it as an advantage? I smell some hypocrisy.

    In Note 9's defense 1.There's a 512 GB version available.The bloatware should be minor inconvenience with that beastly storage space . 2.why is this such a big deal? This is not a new things. 3.Samsung has showed that they don't wanna change otherwise they would have stripped it down by now.I guess the reviewers have embraced it by now and accepted the fact that complaining is not gonna address their grievances. 4.Only if the bloatware apps are trashware and serve to hog internal storage are they rubbish if they present value and satisfaction then take it as it is and make the most out of it But I agree they should give us a option to uninstall bloatware I hope android q enforces this feature,that and get rid of the squircle icons already.

    It's amazing how the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium is often better and better than Note 9! On screen, what is shown in the video neither discusses the size of the superiority of XZ2 Premium that even though it is not configured in the 6 best picture quality settings that all Xperia has! We notice and can clearly perceive a giant difference in image quality and real naturalness that the XZ2 Premium has ... If you set the Enhanced Image Adjustment and Super Vivid Mode on the XZ2 PREMIUM! The distance difference is superiority will be like the world to Jupiter ... Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium it's the best Smartphone of all time... Amazing and Incredible!

    ya00007 You are wrong about it and many people think the same thing! What good is a beautiful fashion designer if the smartphone is totally useless, infuncional and without having a minimum of professional quality enough for it? I already had the Iphone X 256GB and then traded for an S8 + which is much better! However! I switched smartphone again for a Xperia XZ Premium which is countless times faster, efficient, different and with many times higher quality than the two together! I am very satisfied and I will get the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium because of this! I have not yet changed SMARTPHONE yet because my SMARTPHONE is still many times better than the many of today. The Xperia are the only ones with Front Speakers in Stereo Surround, film in 4K HDR, play content in 4K HDR, have the best cameras, super Slow Motion 960FPS that was Sony that invented for Smartphones and has so much that would not like Put it all here! The Iphone X, Iphone 8+ and Galaxy S8 + and S9 + have great problems as well as the others that are based on the sayings whose design being that its functionalities are useless for filming with a long time of use because it has no place to hold correctly and the other problem is that when you hold the smartphone muffling, plugging the audio that is underneath and preventing you can listen right ... I'm talking about your own experiences! Who likes toys, dolls and amateur things! Must buy other brands that are more of the same! Now if you have a little bit of intelligence and want something to work with, it's also distinctive design that is also beautiful, better and often more efficient with unique and exclusive features for professionals! Then you should choose Sony Xperia ...

The P20 Pro IS better in low light because of it's AI-long exposure. You can take up to 6sec exposures with the P20 Pro without the need of a tripod. I really don't think that Sony is beating this like seriously. No one can right now.

If Sony don't use any software to support the camera, the picture would be in RAW format. Hardware is important yes, but even the best Hardware sucks when the Software is horrible. Sony themself proved this all the years. The XZ2 Premium is the first phone from Sony that is on par with other flagships in terms of camera. And I should not let my ego consume my mind? What ego do you mean? To be correct, I like Sony more than Huawei. Maybe you should not let your ego consume your mind.

The XZ2 Premium is the one I'll take, and side by side, it's more elegant and beautiful than the Note 9 (personal preferences).

What other device has the LED flash, lasee auto focus, RGB sensor, dual camera and finger print sensor all in one line in the middle of the phone? I give props to SONY for that design decision but I know for a fact they could've added a larger battery and headphone jack. They're just following the trends of killing the jack

    Pretty Boy Flizzy Note9 is S9+ with a SPen, with installed capacitor(not even a proper battery). XZ2 Premium is definitely a serious upgrade over XZ Premium, and has mindblowing camera features. And only lacks a bt Pen(available at any store for as low as 16 bucks). But somehow PhoneArena concludes Note9 is worth the money more... Nothing unexpected from Phone Arena tho, always bias.

    panatha tube Yes I want this beautiful Premium design, even tho thicker, looks much more unique and Premium than Note, which looks like any other Xiaomi, Huawei, OnePlus6 phone. Yes I dont want OLED as this here 4k hdr lcd screen looks just better, sharper, richer, I do want a headphone jack, but that Pen is utterly unimportant to me as a media content consumer, memory is exactly the same for the same price, expandibility also. Maybe you meant 64 gb more storage...yap only thing Note has going for it, but seriously...you ever, ever spent entire inbulit64gb+64gb sdcard storage. I dont know anyone who ever did manage that... Sound is clear, excellent, with balanced surround (which Notes isnt) And then we come to the camera part....Note9 with its 2 year old setup is just no match to Xperia: 10bit hdr 4k video, 12800ISO extralowlight video, monochrome video, fhd superslomo, 3d scaninng, predictive capture, class leading lowlight photo, bokeh/portrait, bnw photography... Im not a noter/writer, Im a media consumer and photography lover... XZ2 Prem for me all the way...

Plus i never seen a sony phone in a best buy or in a carrier store so it's apparent their distribution is shitty compared to the competition (in the us market anyway).

SO just like several reviewers over there, they chose to do the popular phones, wich then makes me wonder; why OPPO and One PLus wich are very small brands.

    Okay kiddo, you're seriously daydreaming. The dynamic range on the XZ2 Premium is clearly superior, like it or not. Your Note 9 has to always use HDR to achieve great dynamic range, while the XZ2 Premium barely needs it. And if it does use it, it's just remarkable. Now let's talk about video recording at night. I wonder which one can capture the bright night sky without adding too much noise to the video. Or back to photo, which one can see something in pitch black situations.

    Many people talk about design! However! What good is a beautiful fashion designer if the smartphone is totally useless, infuncional and without having a minimum of professional quality enough for it? I already had the Iphone X 256GB and then traded for an S8 + which is much better! However! I switched my smartphone again for a Xperia XZ Premium which is countless times faster, efficient, different and with many times higher quality than the two together! I am very satisfied and I will get the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium because of this! I have not yet changed my Xperia XZ Premium yet because my SMARTPHONE is still many times better than the many of today. The Xperia are the only ones with Front Speakers in Stereo Surround, film in 4K HDR, play content in 4K HDR, have the best cameras, super Slow Motion 960FPS that was Sony that invented for Smartphones and has so much that would not like Put it all here! The Iphone X, Iphone 8+ and Galaxy S8 + and S9 + have great problems as well as the others that are based on the sayings whose design being that its functionalities are useless for filming with a long time of use because it has no place to hold correctly and the other problem is that when you hold the smartphone muffling, plugging the audio that is underneath and preventing you can listen right ... I'm talking about your own experiences! Who likes toys, dolls and amateur things! Must buy other brands that are more of the same! Now if you have a little bit of intelligence and want something to work with, it's also distinctive design that is also beautiful, better and often more efficient with unique and exclusive features for professionals! Then you should choose Sony Xperia ...

    Sony will be releasing XZ3 at IFA, probably on 30th of August. XZ3 will have the same features as that of XZ2 premium except 4k hdr display and it will have a smaller battery and much smaller bezels than XZ2. It'll probably cost around $799 and if that's the case people should find it more attractive than other phones.

    I have to say the one thing Sony doesn't get credit for is their battery life and longevity over life of the product. I've owned so many different brands of phones. The one thing that has always stuck out with every brand except Sony is after 6 months it just doesn't last as long with 100% charge. 1 year in you really notice how you have to charge your device more than when you first got it. 2 years in and phone just dies randomly by the 20% mark and it seems to deplete rather quickly. My first Sony phone (XZ Premium) is 1 year 2 months and still only gets charged once a day with like 20 to 30 percent battery left just like the first day I bought it. I just watched a 2 hour movie on Netflix and only used 15 percent of battery life. Now keep in mind this is a 1 year old battery we are talking about. BTW Samsung phones are the worst at this. Those batteries just don't have a long lifespan even HTC was better at it.

  • @rambot670

    It is hands down Note 9. The features are way too many in Note 9 for those who saw their presentation and know how to use it. Also, XZ2 may have a marginally better camera and a high res screen, but the quality of AMOLED panel blows it out of the water. If XZ2 used that super high res screen for VR though....and the XZ2 looks kinda ugly from the front. It even broke the iPhone 8 Plus's record for being a wide phone !! 128GB UFS 2.1 base storage out of the box is another key point in Note 9's arsenal.

The Note 9 has the headphone jack. That's a big thing to me for a phone since I'm always using it. The XZ2PREMIUM would without a doubt be my photography camera because it has such a superior camera, even compared to other flagships. It tough because I love the jack and I love the camera on the XZ2P. It's stupid SONY didn't put the headphone jack at all in this year's flagships but kept it fit their mid range

Does have HDR as well, better customisation for the screen, while it doesnot just upconverts the resoultion of the watched content to near 4k, also gets them closer to HDR too.

    XZ2 premium by a long way. If I could chose, I'd have the premium in the XZ2 form factor, the screen is just getting a little too big and hard to handle, also make it so the phone would be stable on a table. I like the bezzels, small enough so not to be of issue, but large enough that I dont have to worry about accidently clicking something on the bottom or sides of the phone while I hold it, LOVE the camera with the true to life clours and the super slowmo in 1080p. The lack of a 3,5mm headphone jack is a non issue for me since I very rarely listen to music on my phone. Also I like the sony skin on top of android better than the samsung counterpart.

The colour on both are the same, the luminance is slightly brighter on the Note 9 but the XZ2P has 16:9. I prefer 16:9 because no information is lost from the video.
