For Sony, its smart phone ushered in a replacement, this year's focus from the previous flagship representative Xperia Z to the new Xperia X series. Sony said that it has a new vision for its smartphones, revisiting some of the design details and bringing new vitality to the brand. So whether Sony has made the right choice, is Xperia X Performance enough attractive?
In today's situation, everyone's appearance is similar, Sony's smart phone is still very maverick. The shape of the boxy square plus simple lines, for example, is like a Volvo in a smart phone. Unlike the Xperia Z5, which relies on glass, Xperia X Performance tried a new material this time, using a very beautiful brushed aluminum alloy backplane. It looks very good, meets the visual enjoyment, but the actual touch feels a bit pricey. This metal backboard is a bit thin and not as thick as it seems.
Xperia X Performance's sleek-edged glass with an uninterrupted metal-like plastic middle frame is very close to a beautiful and flawless mobile phone. Of course, the open holes such as headphones still cannot be removed. As a flagship configuration, Xperia X Performance supports IP68 waterproofing, which is not missing. It is worth pointing out that the Xperia X Performance sold in the United States lacks fingerprint recognition. The side power button is just a power button and there is no fingerprint recognition on the international version. As a flagship mobile phone in 2016, it does not provide fingerprint recognition, which is a joke.
When you look closely at the detailed parameters of the Xperia X Performance, you will certainly notice its 5-inch 1920x1080 screen. Yes, this screen is smaller than the Xperia Z5 5.2-inch screen, and it is the smallest compared to other manufacturers' flagship models in 2016.
This time, Sony’s Triluminos technology has contributed a lot and has improved sharpness and saturation just like the image enhancement mode. Compared to the iPhone 6s, the brightness of this screen is also good, but the color is not very accurate in normal mode. To be honest, this screen is quite satisfactory. It is neither ultra-high resolution nor color reproduction. The remaining advantage is the high brightness and occasionally amazing.
Sony's custom Android is still the same, very close to native, of course, we are not using Nexus, so some of the modified icons, and Sony's own media, health, PlayStation and other applications attached to the system. In addition to the new colorful icons in the system settings, everything is familiar to you - no need to waste time re-learning the layout of Android. In order to highlight the quick start of the camera, Sony can use the camera button to activate or quickly double-click the power button (Android native support). The irony is that the latter method is actually more convenient in practical use. Although it sounds a little lackluster, in fact every function is hidden, and when it is needed, it will be started. With Xperia's customized themes, users who want to toss will always have a place to release their energy.
Like other 2016 Android games, Xperia X Performance was equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, which changed the shortcomings of last year's Snapdragon 810. It can be said that Sony's choice is politically correct. However, in the most intense RAM, other products are basically 4GB start, Sony only provides 3GB, without excuse so much, which gives people the feeling is to cut corners.
As for the performance test, it is a normal performance of Xiaolong 820. Some of the results are slightly better, but there is no surprise. In practice, this kind of configuration fluency is guaranteed, but there are occasional slip lags, which is somewhat frustrating. The real problem is that the phone is overheated. After only shooting one minute of standard 1080P video and one minute of 60fps 1080P video, overheating turns off some of the advanced features of the camera, which can cause people to worry about their performance.
In theory, Xperia X Performance should have a good camera performance. The 23 million 1/2.3 inch Exmor RS CMOS provides powerful hardware, but like the Xperia Z5, we are disappointed with the camera's performance.
The “Advanced Auto†mode should be the most used by users and can quickly start recording moments. Although there are not a large number of option settings, the main functions are not missing, such as providing automatic tracking of the subject. The manual mode has better flexibility, supports setting white balance, exposure, ISO, etc., but these all require you to set 8 million pixels to sad reminder, no way to use 23 million pixels.
(Part of the real proofs, night proofs lack of regret)
The pixels of Xperia X Performance are very high, yes, nothing more. The automatic mode strives to insist on the exposure to appear accurate, and even in a very bright environment they can present bold and colorful proofs. After zooming in to 100%, the noise was noticeable and the image was like a painting. Let us be disappointed. The Xperia X Performance's focusing speed is good, but Sony's tuning this time is more biased towards focusing, and it's a little too aggressive. It makes the proofs appear to be out of focus.
PS more proofs can go to phonearena view.
Sony claims that the Xperia X series' endurance is a selling point beyond the camera. It claims to have smart battery management and adaptive charging technology that can achieve a two-day charge. Xperia X Performance's battery is 2700mAh, slightly smaller than the Samsung Galaxy S7. In the actual test, just over 6 hours of light screen time, with this kind of performance, do users need to use it very conservatively for two days of battery life? It really takes a long battery life. Sony has two power saving modes, Stamina and Ultra Stamina.
Perhaps most regrettable is its non-replaceable battery. Although there is a fast charge, the actual charging time is about 50% longer than the Samsung Galaxy S7. It is really bad for the smaller Xperia X Performance.
The price of 700 US dollars proves that Xperia X Performance is the new flagship model in the eyes of Sony, but it does not meet our expectations. If the pricing is 550 or 600 US dollars, we may look at it differently, can forgive it for lack of 4K video, RAM only 3GB, after all, provides a cheaper alternative to Samsung Galaxy S7 models, in fact, their price is similar However, the level is not on one level.
Compared to the Xperia Z5 (referring to the US region) that was only listed at the beginning of the year, Xperia X Performance has only been promoted in several parts, and at the same price, the Xperia X Performance bought by US consumers also lacks the function of fingerprint recognition. It can not help but feel bad, more difficult to accept. Sony has several ways to solve the market problem of this machine, but given the actual performance of Xperia X Performance, it does not belong to this year's flagship model.
