Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Review: Too Quirky for the Mainstream

Ғылым және технология

Sony’s latest flagship represents a series of firsts. It’s the first phone to record 4K HDR video, and is the first Xperia to sport dual cameras. Like its predecessors, the Xperia XZ2 Premium also comes with a 4K HDR display and two front-facing speakers, and records super slow-mo clips. On paper, this is a promising device, but for a very specific audience.

    "The XZ2 Premium does offer higher ISO than the competition, up to ISO 51200. Although that did help me take great low light pictures with less noise, i've also been able to get similar results with other phones that also offer some sort of ultra low light mode like the Huawei P20 pro and the LG G7 Thinq" - I end my quote... This lady knows as much about photography as i do about quantum physics... ISO 51200 is the only NATIVE low light feature a phone can have to deliver NATURAL results in low light. Night mode, super bright mode, and other "we don't have the technology but we'll fool you with some HDR like frame binning" mode are really messing with the colours and exposure making the photos look so unnatural.. Why do you think a pro camera like a nikon or a canon doesn't shoot "night mode". "low light mode" but they push the limits with high ISO values? Why is there this trend on the market today to really be affraid of grain in low light photos, and manufacturers preffer using a very agressive noise reduction that eliminates all detail, making the photo look painted? Why natural colours are so overrated and the likes of Samsung and Huawei boost the colour vibrancy to insane levels?? Why is photography overrated, and everyone but Sony is focusing on taking fucken selfies and cat pics for their social media accounts? Reviewers should have more respect for what Sony tries to do... staying true to the photography ideea, inovating where it really matters. Sony gives you high ISO values, HDR video, and other goodies from their PROFESSIONAL line of Alpha cameras like sony A9 or A7 MkIII, and Samsung and Apple gives you animoji.... P.S. sorry about the rant, but i am pissed at what videos some reviewers make these days... having NO CLUE about what they speak of... Oh, and sorry for my english...

    It isn't "just" 0.1 inches larger than the regular. I has a different aspect ratio (16:9) which compared to XZ2's taller 18:9 screen means a much bigger screen. I can't believe you are a reviewer and you don't know this. And that aspect ratio is the reason for bigger bezels compared to XZ2.

    Something I don't understand: people were bored about Sony's design, so they've changed it. Now, people are also complaining about the design: "curved rears are so 2 years ago". That's disturbing… And I don't think that low light shots taken with the G7 or the P20 Pro are as sharp as the ones taken with this XZ2P... Also, saying that the Pixel 2 delivers accurate colors ( at least more than this phone ), the review unit should have a problem… Lol

    High ISO doesn't necessarily mean a bad one. Digital cameras have this, and even beyond that, and they do a fantastic job in low light that not even this XZ2 Premium can compete with (at least no phone yet can be as good as a DSLR or mirrorless camera in low light).

    She doesn't know anything holy shit I'm triggered😂 "High iso let me take low light pics with less noise", "is always 2 years behind the competition"... Who made their flagships waterproof? Who bumped up the resolution game? Who makes camera sensors for literally every good camera phone out there? Who made features like super slow motion? Who made phones record and take pictures in hdr? The list goes on and on.... Damn.. And how the fk ain't Sony using the dual lens for a feature? Low light capabilities are only good on the huawei or what? That bias doe. Get your facts right before you trashtalk the only semi-major phone brand which still differs from the mass. Literally every other company besides blackberry and maybe htc is going down the same path producing the same phones over and over. Doesn't have features my ass. Edit: Damn that took longer than expected.. Now rage, rage the night away! Edit 2: btw try dropping other phones as often as you dropped this device and then compare what's left of them to the fully intact xz2p.

    Using dual cam to take a picture from the busy street, tons of light from the car and the shops. Then u say the result is similar to others phone. Why not just say the XZ2 Premium is complete bull s***. Dual camera is gimmicky. All others phone are using fake HDR, only SONY record in BT.2020 format. Those fake HDR is just pull up the contract and throws in some colour. Sony knows what is REAL HDR. Maybe they are the only manufacture own a smartphone and camera business. The format is the standard of the industry. Why Amazon and Netflix need to have an HDR version? Why not just doing what Samsung HDR does. Than People with no HDR screen also can enjoy the real colourful movie. Thanks for the drop test though. We all know this phone is very hard unlike iPhone and Samsung curved screen. You should do a chair arm drop test. see which phone is still in one pieces. I am a SONY fanboy but I accept any negative comment with a good reason. Not this complaining out of nothing.

    "I don't know what Sony was thinking when they designed the Xperia XZ2 Premium." First of all, Sony redesigned the phone from the Xperia Z series up to the last year's XZ1 since got most people got bored of their design philosophy. This year, Sony tried another design aesthetic and yet you are still not contented with its changes? I WONDER HOW PEOPLE NOWADAYS ARE NOT HAPPY WITH WHAT THEY HAVE BECAUSE THEY KEEP ON COMPLAINING INSTEAD OF JUST APPRECIATING THE BEAUTY IN EVERYTHING. This video supposedly was made to be a REVIEW VIDEO of a device that will speak for the majority of consumers, not your personal vlog you just upload about sharing your insights. How stupid can you get placing a phone on a thin edged sofa? Any phone you put there the same size as the XZ2 Premium, it will also fall of. And lastly, see how this woman criticizes the phone on how ugly it was. Look who's talking.

    This was a poor review. A dog could have made a better review than this lady. I am not even a Sony fan or Sony user, but there was obviously negativity throughout the entire review. The XZ2 is legitimately a decent phone with good camera, excellent build quality, good screen and excellent battery. Is $1,000 too much for ask for the XZ2 Premium? Probably so, but Engadget did not react as negatively to the iPhone X which also starts a $1,000. I am surprised that anyone can even take Engadget seriously. They have been consistently accused of being biased throughout the years. There are tons of articles on this. This lady does not even seem to know anything about technology. She talked bad about the screen, but I bet she does not even know about screen technology. Same for HDR video. Subjective as hell.

Even said I am no fan of their phones. Some people are too stupid to read and jump to make a comment and look like an idiot. I suggest the idiots who are too dumb to read to GTFO. :D Seems like you copy and pasted this comment to multiple people. Throughout this video plenty of English speakers are calling her out.

Why dont u all blame about the glass panel at the back of the iphone x as well? And who will care about the phone is slippery or not? Do u ever try to put ur phone in that condition? Why don u blame about the Samsung's phone for the "2 years outdated" curve back design? I felt like your review is so biases. BTW, can u see the pixel of the Quad HD display on the samsung's phone? If no then why u bother about the not-countable 4K display of the Sony phone? It does make some different on the viewing experience for the 4K display on the Sony's phone.

    Agree with this review. Sony may have been the first of many things. But they sure aren't great with what they started nowadays. It has been years since everybody had been using a Sony lense and yet Sony themselves never get great camera performances on their own xperia lines, even DxOMarks scores are average. Good they finally changed their design, one that HTC adopted and failed a year before, not good. At least htc had some common sense to put the fingerprint reader higher up. Just subscribed to Engadget for being truthful about this phone. I wish Sony tried a little harder since I used to be a big fan of Sony products. Hope they bounce back up in the industry. And one more thing, comparing the reviewer's looks with the phone is irrelevant.
