Android Pie on Sony Xperia XZ Premium (new features and what has changed)

I sold my XZ Premium and bought Huawei Mate 20 pro from Optus, and my second phone is S9+ couldn't be happier, I had the update before you and bastards actually went through the effort to remove features from XZ Premium's pie build like Blue light filter, double tap to wake and there is no side sense no new wallpapers, After years and years of being a Sony fanboy and loyalty I say Fu** you Sony and goodbye because you have no respect for your customers.

Thank you for your honest review

Love your channel! Love the XZ Premium!

Thanks a lot man!! I just bought my Xz premium and came with Oreo, still have no the Night light mode but I got an update, I think it might come with that option, and thank to you I will keep Oreo only for the Camera quality, I like the new camera app but if battery drain faster and quality images are same, isn't worth to upgrade to 9. !! If it was better quality in 9 I would upgrade no matter the battery drain but, still same quality so we don't get any good upgrades. Thanks again !

Bro u just saved me from updating to Android 9 thanks for that bro god bless u Thanks sooooo much i have xz1 though

Glad to told me this my XZ premium is still running on Oreo

Ok, I wasn't sure between this One and Honor 8x Now I know what I should buy! Thanks aha

I also noticed nice improvements in the Accessibility options, in my case for visually impaired.

Thanks for the update on the update, I switched to the Mate 20 Pro and gave my XZP to my wife and she had no mind to tell me what goes on.

Battery life was better with oreo, now what we can do for improve it?

Dude, i've never had night light on my xzp on oreo

hello! thank you for the review. can you make another review of xz prem with the latest build number of pie. 47.2.A.4.41 because i saw some review that the issue was already fixed with that update.

Hey, bro! I'm not trying to annoy you with these comments, but I've been watching the rest of this video, and you mentioned that Sony didn't change the image quality of the camera? I don't find anything wrong with the image quality, and you also mentioned about the lowlight photos being bad? I've taken loads of lowlight photos with my XZ Premium since the Pie update and the lowlight photos have turned out great for me! But if at any time I wanna brighten up dark areas a little, I just edit the picture.

Dude, that was 3 months ago. Have u tried updating Pie today? Let us know your results

The Android 9.0 update lets you lock the screen to landscape and I like that so much I can live with the crappy stuff I've seen like the Bluetooth menu.

May I ask what size is the UI in your phone? Mine was on default size, also font default, and the top toggle bar only showed 2 rows of toggle options even when pulled down, and I see you have 3 rows. I now set it to small to get 3, this update is a bit of a nightmare. Also have you noticed Netflix is 720 p only now on Xperia Xz premium? It actually changed mid year before the update, Netflix no longer supports 1080p or higher on Xperia Xz premium.

Watching this video on my beautiful silver XZ Premium.

I am happy to get a wider field of view for slo mo. I didn't like how cropped it was, though I think they should've used different labels than resolution for that. 4k HDR on YouTube hasn't been working on any phone soon after they gave that ability since YouTube would be very laggy with asynchronous sound. Really bummed about the Amazon situation as I was watching Jack Ryan and it looked fantastic. I agree. Battery was terrible after pie but after 2 weeks of having it now, it lasts as long and I've noticed it charges significantly faster from 0-30%. Also the rest of the camera features should've been there but they did add an option where you could toggle "image quality" over "correction for distortion". I haven't seen much improvement but I haven't tested it out fully yet either. It sucks about the themes because thats a fantastic option Android has as well as double tap to wake. Seems you are frustrated with SONY and rightfully so. My experience with Pie has been quite fast and infact apps open a bit quicker. The problem right now is a lack of other apps supporting Pie properly.

Do you still have and use all this xperia phones? Does it XA Ultra and z3 compact usable in 2023?

Night Mode can be found in the developer options.. Has an auto feature based on time of day as well..
