Yep, also want to know the price as well.

What a disappointment. Would expect more from a company trying to stay relevant.

June release = Sony screwing themselves over again. Way to late. S7, G5 and whatever HTCs flagship is will be out well before then. Makes me think they felt pressure to announce at MWC so people at least knew they had something coming out and they didn't get steam rolled. Sony always makes the dumbest decisions... And I am a Sony fan.

I couldn't agree with EVERY WORD you just said more lindsey! I'm a huge fan of Sony too, and it frustrates me that IMO they make THE BEST smartphone in the world, but they keep f'ing up how they market it. Also, I don't really care about OIS, but why is it that HTC, Samsung and Apple all have it on their cameras with Sony's camera sensors on them, but Sony doesn't? It makes no sense. Other than that, it's the perfect phone really for a lot of reasons.

But marketing.............THAT'S where Sony really fails. There's absolutely NO good reason to release the X phones that late. I bet there are a BUNCH of people who might've been swayed to get one of the X phones had they released it at least by now. But instead, these people, who probably don't want or simply CAN'T wait, have to if they want it. So what will many of them do? Give up and buy an S7, an HTC 10, or a G5. STUPID! lol

Sony could be KING of the world (even the U.S.) if they'd just get their heads out of their asses! lol Keep the fingerprint sensor even on the U.S. version of the X Performance (and X), get with ALL FOUR major carriers, and start advertising more already!! Get some big actors too.........George Clooney, Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence! The last 2 already HAVE a working relationship with Sony!! They could at least start by televising that great ad with the Brazilian visual artist ( http://blogs.sonymobile.com/press_release/rafael-mantesso-is-first-photo... ) instead of confining it to the internet! It's a little nicer & cooler than their usual ads (which are fine too, but still lol), and I think people would like it if they saw it. The other Sony departments could chip in too since how does Sony Mobile succeeding NOT help the Sony name overall?!

5" snapdragon 820 with a 1080p screen?? Win!!

I agree exactly what I wanted till I compared it's size to say the s7. The x is larger. Which is upsetting..

udazavlanje

At least for a good reason - front stereo speakers.

VZW Moto X DE/N7

ozaz

I agree.

But I wish they stuffed a 3000 mAh battery into the X performance.

diktea

Yups it good on the other spec except battery.

chaosphere1983

Sony's battery life is awesome. I would know, my wife owns the Z3.

Nexus 6

Z3 has a 3100 mAh battery

I do wonder where this falls in line with their Z series though.. Kinda weird

Purple Zebra

I would compare it with Samsung's A line of phones. The XA would be like the Galaxy A3, the X would be the A5, and the X Performance would be the A7. The Z and S lines are still the flagships though.

As long as it does come out in the US by summer, and not postponed like they did with Z5, I'll be more than happy to get the X Performance.

Posted via the Android Central App - LG G4

I think I may have to wait too man. I'm on an old z3c right now bit don't want to jump on the LG Samsung bandwagon. Sonys skin is so much less cluttered

camera531

Sony had no business having this press conference if they can't release these phones for FOUR MONTHS. And they're on display and seem ready to go. WTF Sony, screwing up in a big way, again...

getbretweir

not much of a difference bt the X and XP

There really isn't. I feel like they could have done away with the low end XA, and made the X a bit cheaper by dropping the fingerprint scanner, maybe going with 2gb or ram instead of 3, that sort of thing.

That way they'd have one less phone to maintain, and a more clearly defined mid range phone.

Looks like the Xperia X Performance is the no-brainer here.

fightcrazy

The X Performer is a beautiful device with KO specs. Perfect size and great looking. I would get it but no one knows if it will have US Bands or when it will be available.
