Sony Xperia XZ Premium: Users complain about a WiFi problem

First big worry with the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. According to some users, the flagship would lose the WiFi signal for no reason, while they are quietly doing research or checking their apps.
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium, which was officially launched during the MWC, came on the market on 9 June. Tens of thousands of people hastened to get it, perhaps by following our guide of the best packages available to French operators . But if its design, power and photo quality were unanimous, some users quickly recovered a concern about WiFi connection … According to them, the Xperia XZ Premium would disconnect for no reason, Would severely disrupt navigation . For a high-end smartphone, it’s average, it must be recognized.
It was on the official forum of Sony that the first user affected by this problem, as Phonandroid relays . Under the nickname @ Eviltreebs_1412, he explained receiving regular “a message at the top of the screen asserting that his phone is offline” , even when it is located very close to its router. A problem raised by about 40 other users, and sometimes manifested in different ways … At some, the signal returns a few minutes after disappearing. Others are obliged to erase the network concerned to reinstall it. A little painful when you are quietly doing research via its smartphone. Hopefully the next Sony update will solve this concern.

Sony Xperia XZ Premium: 4K screen, photo, video and autonomy … Here is our complete test

sivertime — Fri, 09 Jun 2017 15:26:11 +0000

Available for purchase in France today, the Sony Xperia XZ Premium has it all. With its Snapdragon 835, its 4K HDR display and its 4GB of RAM, this smartphone has been tested by the editorial, and here is our verdict.
With the Xperia XZ Premium, Sony has created the sensation in the smartphone market. A situation that was no longer used to seeing with the Japanese manufacturer who has, nevertheless, always unveiled products that had everything to please. But sales never really followed the ambition of the Japanese giant. Today, Sony seems to have found the right recipe to make everyone agree: a condensed technology in a luxurious terminal . I rarely as much kiffé test a smartphone, before this Xperia XZ Premium. Brilliant like a piano at 20,000 euros, it throws even though, I would have liked that it avoids to keep the prints of all my friends …. But promised, I will not make my difficult.
Aesthetically, the Sony Xperia XZ Premium takes a bit of the visual codes of the Xperia XA1 and XA1 Ultra. With its new device, Sony Mobile has “redefined” the concept of borderless smartphone . While the Galaxy S8 and LG G6 have more than one dream with their big screens, the Xperia XZ Premium offers an edgeless finish, only on the sides. One aspect that can be called “courageous” since Sony still does not want to imitate the others . Always at the design level, the Xperia XZ Premium offers a rather unusual system to access the microSD and SIM card slots. But it is important to remember the judicious position of its fingerprint sensor. This is located on the power button of the device.
The Xperia XZ Premium is as brilliant as a piano at 20,000 euros
But what really impressed me on this smartphone is probably its photo quality, not to mention its famous 4K screen. But let’s say it once and for all, the Japanese manufacturer does not yet master the true 4K and I will come back to it later. To return to our sheep, to the picture what, bah Sony enters a new dimension with its XZ Premium . Equipped with a 19 megapixel rear sensor and a 13MP front-end sensor, the Nippon flagship is a good photophone thanks to Motion Eye technology, Super Slow motion (a slow motion ‘At 960 frames per second in High Definition) and predictive capture. But he could have called it perfection, if it had the famous optical stabilization …
The other real pleasure of this smartphone is its power. The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is a little Flash smartphone version . He’s a real racing beast. Fast and fluid, the Japanese smartphone never seems to be behind what I have just asked. And thanks to its 4 GB of RAM, the Xperia XZ Premium does not encounter any slowdown. This is one of the most reactive Android devices I’ve tested. Moving from one application to another is a real pleasure, so much so that you will not hesitate to shop from your bed.
If there is indeed a trick of egg on this new Xperia, it is its mode Super Slow Motion that allows to film up to 960 images per second . There is really no picture with the idle mode of your smartphone which usually does not exceed 240 fps. Personally, I was able to make a small video in Super Slow Motion , and the result is not bad. But in contrast the Sony flagship is not really 4K. The “jewel” from Sony displays the contents in Full HD, it only goes into 4K after 4K compatible videos are launched. This is a trick of Sony so that the battery does not empty quickly.
Equipped with a Snapdragon 835, an Adreno 530 graphics chip and 4 GB of RAM, the Xperia XZ Premium is one of the best terminals for gamers. It is not for nothing that he imposed himself before the Samsung Galaxy S8 in a Speed Test . For my part, I spent a few hours on the mobile games of the moment. Apart from a slight overheating, Sony’s newest son is doing very well. And his little overheating disappears, as soon as we stop playing. But otherwise, he does not suffer (again) from any slowdown. Level autonomy, the Xperia XZ Premium is a good student. Thanks to its 3,250 mAh battery, it can ensure a good day and a half of use.
On the interface side, Sony has not changed much with its new smartphone that comes with Android 7.1 . If you’ve already had a Sony Xperia, you will see almost no change. And if the smartphone app drawer is really cool, I struggled with the many apps pre-installed on the tel. Between the music and video players, the drawing application or the activity tracker and Xperia Lounge, I find that “it’s a lot, no” (to use this expression of 2/3 French rappers ..). What is really re-released is the impossibility of removing these pre-installed apps. Yes, you read well. We can disable oklm but they will still be in the smartphone.
And even if after 15 days, I really fell in love with the Xperia XZ Premium (which is available for purchase in France, here) and on its side waouh that leaves none of my friends indifferent, I can also him Find faults. Its ratio size / screen is not up to what can be found on the Galaxy S8 or LG G6. Its 4K is not really premium and its camera is not the best performer of the market (still efforts to do in reactivity of the sensor and distance of focus, but in general, the Xperia XZ Premium is without doubt One of the most powerful smartphones of the year So you’re going to shopper it today?

Sony Xperia XZ Premium: We tested the headset that is offered if you pre-order the smartphone

sivertime — Thu, 01 Jun 2017 15:07:42 +0000

While the Xperia XZ Premium is fast approaching, the Sony Xperia XZ Premium has it all. If you pre-order it, you will even receive a Sony h.ear On Wireless headset that is also called MDR-100ABN. We tested it at the editorial, here is our verdict!
Announced as the perfect successor to the Xperia Z5 Premium, the Xperia XZ Premium is the first smartphone equipped with a 4K HDR display. With this new high-end camera, Sony is progressing enormously in the photo according to our first pictures . And as the Japanese giant decided not to do things by half, it offers you squarely its h.ear On Wireless headset that is also known as MDR-100ABN, in case of pre-order of the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. In the editorial, we had the opportunity to test this helmet and here are our impressions!
Aesthetically, the Sony MDR-100ABN takes over the codes of its senior, the MDR-100A. Its plastic shell is both sturdy and well finished. Sony offers us a product with a clean, modern and rather discreet design . But the last criterion is not necessarily valid for the lime helmet that has been tested. Beyond the color, the helmet is supple and easily forgotten on the ears. As for ergonomics, the headset – which you can have free of charge by pre-ordering now the Sony Xperia XZ Premium (offer valid until June 8) – can withstand a few twists. But if you want to preserve it, you can fold its ear cups inward and store it in its protective cover.
Unlike the MDR-100A, the MDR-100ABN is wireless with noise reduction in addition . But after listening to some rap sounds fr, I quickly realized that noise reduction was not the strong point of the Japanese helmet. To obtain excellent audio performance, it is even better to disable this noise reduction. But overall, Sony’s headset sends heavy and can allow you to forget the noise of the subway when you travel. But in my eyes, it is autonomy that will put everyone in agreement.
Equipped with a battery that offers a range of 30 hours, the Sony MDR-100ABN headphones tutoie perfection at this level. And the icing on the cake, this headset goes into standby as soon as it is no longer used. This is a detail probably for you but, this is very important for the autonomy of the helmet. And if the headset’s battery is discharged , Sony even offers us the option of using it as a wired with a mini-jack cable that comes with the product . So you understood. This headset will make your ears happy, if you pre-order the Xperia XZ Premium here before June 8th . And it would be stupid to miss out on this since the new smartphone from Sony will not be sold with headphones on its release … So, what are you waiting for?

Sony Xperia XZ Premium: A day to test the smartphone, our impressions!

sivertime — Thu, 25 May 2017 13:53:12 +0000

The Xperia XZ Premium is finally available. And the editorial staff had the privilege of testing Sony’s new smartphone in preview.
OMG, I’m one of the lucky ones who will be previewing the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. This smartphone has already left me speechless in Portugal and I was able to make my first video in Super Slow Motion with the device . Today, I am still impressed. Nothing but the packaging of the latest “jewel” from Sony Mobile gives me as much thrill as a new album of Future. I carefully open the package and I can take the Xperia XZ Premium in chrome. Brilliant like a piano at 20,000 euros, it throws but good, I would have liked it avoids to keep the fingerprints of all my friends …. I will not do my difficult.
It is open. Aesthetically, the Sony Xperia XZ Premium takes a bit of the Xperia XA1 and XA1 Ultra codes. With its new smartphone, Sony has redefined the concept of borderless smartphone . At the same time as the Galaxy S8 and the LG G6 are dreaming with their screens, the Xperia XZ Premium is without edges, only on the sides. A design that can be called “courageous” since Sony is still not trying to imitate others. But on the other hand, the brilliant aspect of the smartphone leaves me a bit dubious. As much as I hiffe the mirror effect, as much I find that it is relou that the shell keeps the traces of my fingers . The Xperia XZ Premium had already been cleaned and had already been cleaned.
If the design can leave perplexing, the grip is really very cool. Pleasant, the Japanese smartphone is equipped with a jack and a USB-C jack to recharge it. But, I did not expect to have trouble inserting my SIM on this device. At a time when most smartphones offer the possibility of opening access to the microSD and SIM card slots with a simple pin, the Xperia XZ Premium has chosen a rather atypical system that seems rather fragile . But the best surprise is undoubtedly the judicious position of the fingerprint reader.
Sony has chosen an original location for its fingerprint reader
Sony has chosen to position the fingerprint reader of the Xperia XZ Premium on its power button. While most manufacturers place these sensors under the screen or on the back of their devices, this original choice of the giant Nippon can only be validated. Once the Xperia XZ Premium has been configured, I tackle the heavy subject: the camera. And there, magic operates! The colors are hallucinating, the sensor adapts to all conditions of brightness, from the sun terrace to the subway dipped in the dark.
Equipped with a 19 megapixel rear sensor and a 13 MP front-end sensor, the Xperia XZ Premium is very good in photos thanks to Motion technology, the Super Slow motion (filming directly in idle mode at 960 Images per second in High Definition) and predictive capture. Personally, I was able to make a small video in Super slow motion, and the result is not bad. But I would have to spend a little more time with this camera which is, on paper, able to shade the Galaxy S8 to gauge its limits in terms of photo.
First smartphone equipped with a 4K HDR display, the Xperia XZ Premium has nothing to envy a Bravia TV. With its 5.5 “screen, the Japanese manufacturer sells us dream, but with what content? With the series of Amazon especially since Sony teamed up with Amazon Prime Video and I will come back later after watching 2 / 3 episodes of a series, but on my first steps with this Xperia XZ Premium, I felt like I had a real racing beast , not only amazed by its more beautiful screen Than ever but in addition, it goes devilishly fast.
Moving from one application to another is a real pleasure, never seems to be behind what has just been asked. This is without a doubt one of the most responsive smartphones I could test in 2017 (and yet the Galaxy S8 + and the iPhone 7 have passed into my hands). By adapting the interface of its new jewel to that of Android, the new Xperia is as easy to use as a good old Google Nexus. Accustomed to using an iPhone 7 and a Huawei P10, I had no trouble adapting to this Xperia XZ Premium . After a rather dense day, the Sony Xperia XZ Premium displays 40% battery, which seems correct. This smartphone that is available in pre-order with a headset offered is a pleasure to use and is probably the best Sony terminal I could try. But to pronounce definitively, I will wait for my complete test.

Sony has hit hard in the world of smartphones. After a rather difficult year 2016, the Japanese giant impressed us with its new aircraft. While the Xperia XA1 has successfully passed the various stages of testing to the editorial team , Sony Mobile is about to formalize the release of the highly anticipated Xperia XZ Premium. At a time when many media are already announcing the release date of this high-end smartphone, the manufacturer has not yet formalized this information. After realizing a Super Slow Motion with the Xperia XZ Premium, you are offered 3 things that will make you zap the Samsung Galaxy S8 and iPhone 7.
His power
In addition to being equipped with the very powerful Snapdragon 835, the Xperia XZ Premium offers a beautiful 4K HDR screen, a first in the world of smartphones . As a result, the Japanese flagship offers wow colors and contrasts on its 5.5-inch screen. Delivered under Android 7.1, the Xperia XZ Premium is a real racing beast on paper.
The camera
Waterproof, the Sony Xperia XZ Premium is also very good photo side. It has a 19-megapixel rear sensor and a 13 MP front-end sensor. And since Motion Eye technology, Super slow motion and predictive capture technology are all present, all your photos will be perfect. And it’s really better, when you know that the Galaxy S8 keeps the Galaxy S7 photo sensor …
Super Slow Motion mode
If there is indeed a trick of egg on this new Xperia it is its mode Super Slow Motion that allows to film up to 960 images per second. There is really no photo with the idle mode of your iPhone or other smartphone which usually do not exceed 240 fps. Even if the Xperia XZ Premium does less well than the Galaxy S8 in a first benchmark, the new terminal of Sony has everything to please, and we can not wait to test it!

Sony Xperia XA1 vs. Huawei P10 Lite: We compared their cameras

sivertime — Thu, 04 May 2017 16:25:00 +0000

The Huawei P10 Lite and the Sony Xperia XA1 are two new mid-range smartphones. To decide between them, we decided to compare their cameras by taking several photos. The result is amazing!
Sony and Huawei launched a few weeks ago new smartphones in the mid-range market: the Xperia XA1 and the P10 Lite . If these two devices have everything to please, it is difficult to separate them with the naked eye, without knowing the technical sheets. At the writing, we did not hesitate to take pictures with both terminals, without changing the settings in the Photo apps. And the result is really unexpected. The Chinese smartphone seems to be more efficient than the new Japanese terminal.
On the left, the picture taken with the P10 Lite. On the right, the one that was taken with the Xperia XA1
If the Huawei P10 is very good in photo thanks to its dual sensor designed in partnership with Leica, the P10 Lite did not yield to the sirens of the dual photo sensor. The less muscular version of the P10 is satisfied with a single sensor of 12 megapixels which reminds us the color objective of the Huawei P9 . But the photo quality is pretty cool. Well, you’re going to put a cross on Bokeh mode or Portrait mode but, the picture quality should meet your expectations. As for the Xperia XA1 from Sony, it has an enormous photo sensor with a resolution of 23 Mpx at the back, much more than what we usually see on this segment.
As you can see from these pictures, the camera of the P10 is really not bad. Without any adjustment, its sensor makes very beautiful or even unrealistic photos (one might think that the HDR mode is activated), especially when they are displayed on the screen very bright colors of the P10 Lite . As for the Xperia XA1 Lite, its sensor is victim of a small veil, which spoils a little rendering. If the two smartphones offer nice qualities, I personally prefer to shopper a Huawei P10 whose dual photo sensor is putting everyone in agreement or, just waiting for the release of the Xperia XZ Premium that seems to tutoyer perfection . And what is your plan?

Sony Xperia XA1: Camera, battery life, performance … Our complete smartphone test

sivertime — Tue, 02 May 2017 13:53:40 +0000

Presented at the MWC 2017, the Sony Xperia XA1 is a smartphone as elegant as the Xperia XZ Premium. We tested it for a week and here are our impressions in terms of autonomy, performance and camera.
With the Xperia XA1, Sony has redefined the concept of borderless smartphone. Its new mid-range is edgeless, only, on the sides. But leaving several millimeters between the top of the smartphone and its screen, the Japanese manufacturer has delivered a device that looks very big for a 5 inches. At the writing, we did not hesitate to compare it to a Huawei P10 Lite, a smartphone equipped with a screen of 5.2 inches, and the result is impressive. The Xperia XA1 is more impressive than a P10 Lite! Fortunately, the new mobile phone from Sony is good to take in hand and its technical sheet has something to feast on.
In terms of screen, the Sony Xperia XA1 has good arguments. Whether on a sunny terrace or in a subway, the 5-inch screen adapts to different light conditions . But it’s especially the interface of the Xperia XA1 that amazed me. Very close to Android Nougat, the Xperia UI overlay offers a menu display and a similar bar that recall the latest version of the Google OS, which facilitates the user experience. The new Nippon smartphone is also offered with several pre-installed apps. Among these, particularly include, Playstation, Xperia Lounge, Shop Amazon .. . But unlike other manufacturers, the giant Nippon offers us the possibility to uninstall them.
To move on to serious things and gauge the power of the smartphone, I decided to install and launch the Asphalt Extreme. And the least we can say is that the mobile chip MediaTek Helio P20 with the 3GB memory does not pretend. Fluid, the game has not suffered from any slowdown . And on the photo side, Sony is finally up to its reputation. At the time when the Nippon provides the photo sensors of the best flagship market (LG G6, iPhone 7) , it has often been unable to have such good photo quality on its own terminals. But in 2017, Sony set the record straight.
With a high-speed, accurate autofocus, the Xperia XA1 can allow you to capture the most spontaneous moments. This picture of my cat yawning (below) that I took with the smartphone of Sony is the perfect illustration of these words. Finally, the Xperia XA1 is also distinguished by its system by its system of optical stabilization. The Sony camera also shoots in Full HD and an HDR mode is proposed to improve the sharpness of your photos against the light. In short, everything is good for taking nice pictures.
The Xperia XA1 has been designed to deliver even longer performance. Qnovo Adapt Charging technology controls the battery condition and adjusts the charge time to prevent damage and maximize battery life. Yes, you understood it. Sony has done everything to ensure a long life span of the Xperia XA1 . When used intensively, the smartphone can easily exceed 13 hours, which places it at the same level as a Huawei P10 Lite but a little way down from the Honor 6X or the Galaxy A3 2017.
With this smartphone, Sony proves to us that it is always in the blow (even if one never doubted to the drafting). Fluid and pleasant in hand, the Xperia XA1 allows to capture beautiful photos outdoors and is inspired by the swipe of Snapchat to facilitate the use of its photos app . Equipped with a good battery life and a solid technical data sheet, it stands out for its virtually rimless display and rectangular design that changes from what we are used to seeing on the market. But if you are in love with this terminal, you can also find some faults. Its elongated format is, for example, a real disadvantage in everyday life. If you want to have fun with this very nice smartphone, you can shopper it here .

magictr — Sat, 04 Mar 2017 21:42:18 +0000

Aloy’s ultimate armor in Horizon: Zero Dawn is called the Ancient Armor. How to get it and protect yourself from almost all the damage? The Gaming Stories Redaction to the solution!
Horizon: Zero Dawn is a long and immense game, as explained in our Test . However, if you are a little curious, you should have discovered a mysterious bunker quite quickly in which throne a magnificent Antique Armor … Who for us to rather a futuristic look in fact … This armor is the ultimate outfit that Aloy can get, and Will transform your dear archer into a true destroyer, thanks to its ability to absorb damage. Just think of fleeing a moment when the gauges of the outfit will be in the red! To recover your outfit, the technique is not very hard, but extremely tedious. You will have to recover a total of five batteries disseminated in the game, and solve two puzzles to unlock the airlock that holds it.

Trigger the Quest
The first step: trigger the Quest . To do this, do not go far from the first hunting area, leaving the sacred lands of the Nora Clan. Not far from the area called the Demon’s Thirst , you should find a steep cavern with a small underground lake. Swim a moment (you will find in this cave a metal flower), then enter the bunker. You come in front of the armor, but it is in a locked room. To the right, a first door will require two batteries, then you will have to unlock the armor by itself, thanks to three additional batteries. Of course, for this quest, the game will not give you any information on the direction to follow, and you will have to manage to recover the five batteries.
Horizon, Antique Armor, Ultimate Outfit, Armor of the Future, Sony, PS4, Guerrila Games
The Graal ! Become almost invincible!

The first two batteries
To recover the first battery, you will have to return to the ruins already traveled as a child . Indeed, during the tutorial, you were not armed. Now yes. Take advantage of your power and spear to explode the stalactites and stalagmites that clog the passages and recover in passing some resources, and messages and recordings to deepen the scenario. The first battery, a small green cylinder awaits you in one of the new rooms.

Fill me with those ugly stalactites!
The second one is only accessible from the moment you pass your rite of passage in the first hours of play. You will have to go back to the heart of the mountain where you were collected, the second battery is there, in The capital of the Nora Clan, in a small concealed corridor. But there is a small catch, which will surely be updated … But the door may be closed. To remedy this, do not teleport to the nearest campfire, but to a farther away, out of the village . Go to the door with a red cross drawn. The narrow tunnel you are looking for will be on your left.

From a distance, look for a green resource
The last three batteries
Potentially, you are now able to open the room of the Antique Armor … But the dress would still be blocked … To avoid free comings and goings, go to the Tower of Pr Faro , in the extreme Northwest Of the map. The building has not yet revealed all its secrets, and you will once again hit you up. Unless you discover these lines before doing the Main Quest! Anyway, go to the top of the tower . When you reach the top, in the conference room where you will be revealed the first keys to the puzzle of the game, take the time to thoroughly search. You have the possibility to climb even higher, climbing the remains of the tower. Look for fluorescent yellow plugs to climb.

It’s beautiful, but it’s high
The fourth, on its side, is situated in the Necropolis . Teleport this time to the extreme northeast. In the Necropolis, which is only accessible to a certain level of progress of the Main Quest, you will have to search in detail the area where you cross a Corruptor out of service . To locate you, know that it is right after opening the three locking systems, after opening the armored door.
Horizon, Antique Armor, Ultimate Outfit, Armor of the Future, Sony, PS4, Guerrila Games
Search every corner of the corridors
Finally, the fifth and last battery holds out your arms. Again, you will only be able to visit the Gaia ruins from a certain point in time, precisely at the time of the Fallen Mountain quest , all the way to the North. When you leave the hiding place of Sylens , you will have to go down into the elevator shaft and take a branch that leads to two-three cul-de-sac rooms. Retrieve there the last battery, nonchalantly placed on a bearing.

Each battery is in a key area of the game
Unlock codes
Now that you own the five batteries, teleport to the bunker that houses the armor. Place two on the door. The proposed riddle is not very difficult, you just have to translate the numbers to the right in direction. Each number corresponds to one hour of the dial of a clock. To enter, you will need to set the switches to Up, Right, Down, Left and Up . Now cross the room, make a passage full of resources in the coffers, and go to the second panel. Place them three missing batteries to activate the switches, and solve the second puzzle. This time it is a transposition of degrees of a circle. To unlock the armor, enter the sequence Right, Left, Up, Right, Left . You can now pick up your well-deserved Antique Armor and go and charge the end boss of Horizon: Zero Dawn for all of his work! Have you managed to recover the armor?
