It's the world's first 4K smartphone. The selling point is there on
paper, even if it won't make a real difference in your daily routine it's
definitely expensive and shiny. I'm Anton D. Nagy with Pocketnow and this could
very well be just an expansive bragging right. Let's take a quick look at the Sony
Xperia Z5 Premium and try to find out if it is. Our first impressions start
with the unboxing experience and they're not that bright. Sure, Sony decided to change the
box and presentation of the Z5 Premium but the experience is not
premium at all. No, we're not talking about the carton box or materials used,
we're talking about a premium device that even has the word "premium" in its official
name, which comes with no headphones bundled. Sure, some regions might get them inside
the box but this one right here in Europe doesn't. We've seen mid-rangers ship with
JBL headphones, or premium devices come with AKG-tuned premium earbuds right in the box
This premium device does only ship with a screen protector, a charging
cable, the charger itself, and some literature. Not only that but Sony
calls out Hi-Res audio on the box and specifications, Hi-Res audio you'll have to
enjoy with a separate set of headphones you do or do not own. The device itself
feels good, we'll give you that
much, and the silver chrome unit is shiny, it looks good, and it can probably set a
new world record for collecting fingerprints and smudges. The OmniBallance
philosophy is still alive whether you love it or hated and the Xperia Z5
premium feels just as good as any other past Xperia Z smartphone yes you're
entitled to say you're somewhat tired of the same old design but it feels so
solid and good in there that you might just want to learn to live with it and
it's rough the world's first 4G smartphone has every chance of going
unnoticed yes the 5.5 inch screen otherwise beautiful
has a potential 2160 by 38 40 bucks resolution and EPA rating of eight
hundred and six but that's something you'll barely notice about 90% of the
time or even more limited to flee as a matter of fact aside from Sony's own
movie and album applications everything else will run in and homes so he says it
was a user-oriented decision to conserve battery life combined with the fact that
most third-party applications don't even support for Android itself doesn't
support for key resolution first three shots so those will result in 1080p
files as well at least while running lollipop the version of an injury that
always easy 5 premium and even if he's shooting for which you can with or
without the upscaling would you be able to tell the difference between 40 and
NEP 5.5 inch display we're inclined to believe that this feature is just the
bragging ride an expensive one but we'll have to wait for a full review to draw
the conclusion the fingerprint scanner is something new to the Xperia line up
and its placement on the side mounted power button that's something you'll
have to get used to you have to register at least three fingers right left index
and left middle finger if you want to be able to easily unlock your device for
your fingerprint when you flying the button it's working well it's not
awkward he'll just have to get used to the front base in stereo speakers can be
as usual and we can't wait to see the camera improvement Sony developed the
software RAID five that one that one lollipop with Sony's own skin on top of
it pretty much like on previous iterations processor RAM and storage are
in an upgrade at all over disease free
and were yet to see how the only thirty five hundred million battery will
perform however we're happy to report we've experienced no heat issues or a
precious so far but we're far from drawing a conclusion just as of now will
just say this
the Sony Xperia Z five premium is one hell of a pricey three-plus with a
side-mounted fingerprint scan her and the four key display you'll be happy to
tell your friends about but neither you nor do they will be able to tell the
difference
everyone will have a lot more undersea 5 premium in the coming days and weeks and
