Oh look ANOTHER z3+/z4 variant. This one comes with 2k display.

Sony, if by any small miracle you are reading my post here, stop screwing your own business over by confusing the planet, stop giving different,no, major different hardware between devices and stop fragmenting your own lines.
You've gone from tech innovators to laughing stock in one simple hardware revision.
Why not put qhd in all the new models and just call it z4????
Idiots!!!!!

Oh and by the way, I probably would have had one, but you decided to play corporate suicide roulette instead.

Well now see....I read your comments...and then went on to read the review you linked to....

If what you say is true.... then the review must have been written by someone who markets Sony phones. It was very positive about the Z4v....

Having said that, there was one section that really confused me. You have always rated the camera on your Z3....the reviewer made this comment .....

"Thus far, Sony’s cameras haven’t lived up to expectations. With the Z4v, it’s packing a long a monster sized 20.7-megapixel Exmor RS sensor, which can achieve a very high ISO – making it handy for those low light situations". (inferring that the camera on this model is vastly superior to others)

So I admit to being a tad confused...but as it's 1 am that's probably the reason...

I was a bit confused by the camera comments tbh, because unless the new sensor is in it, it's the same camera...

[MI5]

Same sensor since the Z1 innit ?

[viridis]

Yup 20.7 mpix exmor, wouldn't surprise me though if they did give verizon the new sensor

[MI5]

Yeah, quite possible......

[jonsie]

Yep the review is for Verizon,  so nothing to say this will be the same European version.

It's not, the eu and rest of the world got the z3+ with it's cpu update only.
Only verizon got the true z4

Which is probably why I found the review contradictory to your statement ...obviously he was testing the 'better model'...which we wont get here
