The Sony Xperia XZ2 has been released for some time now. The new design, the first handset to support 4K HDR. To enhance entertainment, Sony also added a dynamic vibration system that tactilely enhances the game and audio and video experience. If from the surface parameters From the perspective of Sony Xperia XZ2, it should be regarded as an extremely excellent product. It can even be said that this is a product that has been demanded by countless cable powders. However, innovation is often accompanied by controversy. There are some disputes about this phone on the Internet. We give detailed answers to these questions.
1. An argument caused by 'value'
It can be said that a product has changed, then the point of change is often magnified by the user several times. Sony Xperia XZ2 is such a product. All the points of progress in configuration and function can be said to be The controversial appearance was overshadowed.

Speaking of Sony's design, it can be said that many people like the brand. Whether it is in terms of ease of use or appearance, it always brings you a different feeling. Reviewing the design style of Sony mobile phones, from the earliest Xperia Z The series of OmniBalance fully balanced design to the Xperia X series of Unified Design, from the Xperia XZ Loop Surface to the Xperia XZ2 Ambient Flow design, In fact, each generation before the XZ2 has its own unique style, but also filled with the Japanese kind of simple Founder The first three stages of Sony's mobile phone design can be said to be based on the shape of Founder, only to change the details of the fuselage. Some will use 3D glass to enhance the rounded corners, some use of metal Material to enhance the body's ruggedness, but the Xperia XZ2 is different, it can be said that Sony's first completely abandoned the flagship product of Founder shape in recent years, is Sony's attempt to develop a new design style.
The Sony Xperia XZ2 front introduced 18:9 screen can be said to follow the current trend, but the design of its back, many users, and even some cable powder can not help but ask a question mark. After all, 3D arc design is more fit the palm of your hand , But it also brings a body thickness of up to 11mm. It is hard to imagine that a flagship product will have such "shocking" thickness in 2018. After reading the official data, I believe many people can't accept this thickness. After all, the public's aesthetic is now more willing to accept thinner products.
However, looking at the data can sometimes mislead the user. If you actually experience it, you will actually find that the Xperia XZ2 really feels very thin in your hand. From the perspective of actually using the phone, the thickness of the palm is most noticeable. Position is where the fingers are held in contact with the middle frame. The thickness of the Xperia XZ2 frame is only 6mm, which is very thin on the grip. The actual experience will reveal that the XZ2 feels thinner than the Xperia XZ Premium.
Sometimes the thinness of the phone will affect the use of the touch, the Ambient Flow design language is reflected in the Xperia XZ2's feel, the body's four chamfers are more rounded, unlike the previous generation XZ1 like a pickpocket, the back of the middle of the bulge just fit In the palm of the hand, the center of the machine is at a position below the fingerprint key. When using it, there will be no phenomenon of unstable center of gravity. Although the appearance of the thickness gives some feeling of deviation, the actual use is still very natural.
The new glass backplane also brings another problem. That is, the fingerprint recognition on the side moves back, because the narrowing of the border makes the Xperia XZ2 transfer the fingerprint recognition module to the back of the mobile phone (post-fingerprint). In the intelligent machine industry, the overall turn Face recognition and fingerprint identification under the screen, everyone vowed that Sony once again did not take the unusual road, from the leading side of the fingerprint, back to back fingerprint recognition.
This problem can be regarded as hard for Sony to say because the patents for fingerprints on the North American market were not owned by Sony. Therefore, Sony’s mobile phone products with side fingerprints sold in North America had to cancel this function. Fortunately, the US version of the system can unlock the phone through Google's face recognition and graphical passwords. To the new generation of Xperia XZ2 mobile phones, Sony has to follow suit in order to avoid some patent disputes. A sound plan.

The reason why the Sony Xperia XZ2 has caused controversy is, objectively speaking, just because of the high hopes it has given Sony. As a technology company known for its design, it is hard to accept that its appearance is counterproductive. Sony's creative touch has been added to the design, so that their mobile phone products can not only be seen, but also allows users to truly feel that this new attempt is still worthy of our affirmation.
2. Sony Xperia XZ2 does not 'innovate'
After the release of the Sony Xperia XZ2, many foreign media claimed that the direct author expressed disappointment with Sony and stated that Sony has been caught in a stagnation of innovation. For example, the appearance of immutable, not following the trend of using a full screen, and immutable functions. In short they think The design of Sony Xperia XZ2 has no characteristics, is a bit too mediocre, failed to once again stunning the industry.
In fact, merely relying on appearance and configuration functions to conclude that Sony's innovation is stagnant, it is inevitably somewhat too one-sided. Sony Xperia XZ2 can achieve 1080P resolution 960 frames slow motion video recording. In addition, Sony Xperia XZ2 can not only shoot 4K HDR video , And also have the ability to display ordinary video into HDR video, these technologies from the front of the Sony TV and imaging sector can be very mature to the mobile phone products.
Among them, Sony upgraded 960fps slow motion video recording this year. Whether it is Samsung, Huawei or Sony, the slow-motion photography technology used comes from Sony's new CMOS design. Compared to the traditional CMOS, Sony added CMOS. The DRAM layer (Dynamic Random Access Memory). This DRAM layer can be understood as a memory bar above the PC, which also allows CMOS to store images more quickly.
Sony's Xperia XZ2 4K HDR's video feature enhances the color and depth of the video. From the original 8 bit depth, it has been enhanced to a depth of 10 bits. At the same time, the BT.2020's breadth is supported in terms of color performance. Color gamut, which is also the standard specification for the future 'True 4K'. The Sony Xperia XZ2's 4K HDR recording is not only simple to achieve resolution standards. It is also the industry's first mobile phone to add 4K HDR video capabilities.
Finally, let's talk about the hot issues mentioned by Jingdong. The Sony Xperia XZ2 uses the current flagship mobile platform Xiaolong 845 of Qualcomm. For performance, you can use extreme experience to describe it. Everyday, you use it to play games. The picture quality can ensure the smoothness of the picture and there are no problems such as getting stuck. Now that the popularity of the popular chicken game is fully open, the Snapdragon 845 can be easily controlled. However, for the ultimate performance, it is difficult to increase the power consumption. After all, the better the performance, the better the power consumption and the heat. As a result, if you play the game for a long time, the heat of the mobile phone becomes an unavoidable problem. This is also a must for mobile phone users who are pursuing extreme performance. The problem to be faced.
In general, the Sony Xperia XZ2's controversy mainly focused on the appearance, the appearance of the new design for Sony design this piece of gold sign was questioned, the official thickness of 11mm is indeed somewhat difficult to accept, but the actual use down, You will find that in this era of flourishing, Liu Hai’s era of rampant, there is also a completely different feeling of the product, so that when you are free to always get up and play for a while.
