I love the chrome. It is truly stunning although the mirror isn't perfect, it has very slight bend distortion.
I don't have a protector front or back, I run naked
. I did drop it already too (on that horrible cobble you get in outdoor shopping centres) not a scratch on the glass or metal, but scratches on the corner inserts.
I haven't run any 4K content excepted the preloaded clips. The screen clarity is noticeably better than
1080p@5.2". It is like a tiny window into another dimension. Mind blowing. How high of a bit rate do you me test?
Battery life isn't as good as my Z3. But it will still last a solid full day. As an example, I got up at 8am, used the maps to get around the city of London until midday, sat on a train for three hours with nonstop streaming music and on WhatsApp and instagram, sat bored in the airport for 5 hours on CoC, music, photos and WhatsApp, then the battery went as I boarded the plane at about 8pm. 12 hours, but constant use. I'll post a screen of the usage later.
I use a SanDisk 64Gb card. Not sure of the spec but it's fine.
My favourite thing about the phone is that it feels solid compared to previous models. I don't feel like the screen or back will lift after a while nor will it bend in my pocket.
Heating hasn't been noticeable more than other recent handsets I've had. My Z3 heats faster, but I suspect that the heatpipes are lose in my Z3.
Thanks for the feedback, as long as the battery last me the whole day (10 hours min) on heavy use its basically good enough. As for the heat, i expact the same as z ultra due to larger size. My z ultra never gets hot even when i game for hours. Would you say z5p is the best xperia yet? i felt like z3 might be the most all around xperia when it first came out?

Congrats Ricky D!
Is it able to play 4K Video outside its Video Player? E.g. play 4K in the YouTube App and Netflix app. like how QHD phones play 1440P vids in those apps.

@xenia & @Gitaroo
I wholeheartedly recommend this phone. Most solid feeling Xperia for a long time, maybe as far back as the X10, although I never tried the Z2. Z3 was an extremely good phone when released, but the slight bending encouraged the front and back glass to come loose after time. I can't see any of the same early signals from Z5 Premium.
@Tsepz_GP
I've not tried 3rd party player 4K support yet, youtube is blocked in China, but I'll give it a go through a VPN.
@xsarahditv
I'd not looked for onehanded features to be honest, but now I've had a gander, no dice.

I'm guessing the bend distortion depends on the distance ? If close is fine, if far it starts to distort?
Ah jeez shame but least it survived the fall unintentionally.
Try this ->
Just click on "Download 4K UHD Fireworks Sample (1.19 GB (1,283,031,189 bytes))"

And how's the upscaling ? Try a 720p vid and let us know how you feel about the upscaling.
Battery life seems good for you, if your happy I'll probably be happy pushing mine to two days .I'm pretty on top of my battery life in my Z and z3
I toggle gsm to 3g to hsupa , GPS, WiFi, bt, brightness etc constantly.
Cool was just curious about memory card .
Well then it is a premium phone with a solid premium build
I'm happy with what you've said Ricky d

@Ricky D
According to a lot of sources, you can upscale anything down to 720p to be displayed as 4K... but I want to make sure, will 480p source be upscaled to 1080p or it will not be upscaled at all...

Thanks Ricky D for the impression, I heard a lot of praise for the X10, can someone give me a run down on why it was so impressive and what were its competition at the time? It came out before I even own a cell phone.
