@Ranjith - what you are paying double for is the software development and optimization. if you look at reviews for the oneplus3, you'll see that even with its impressive specs, its performance is mediocre.
Although I can agree Sony needs to price its phones more competitively, I agree with whoever said their strategy is to sell few at high prices to make a profit. It's not the best strategy, but right now they simply don't have a market presence and it's their best option until they do. They have poor relationships with carriers overall and I think this is their biggest problem. If you want to gain market share, the best thing to do is let the carriers push your product. However, unlike Apple or even Samsung, who have the brand power to negotiate terms, Sony just can't or won't.
Especially here in the US, if it's not pushed by a major carrier, people simply don't know about it.
I am looking forward to IFA. I'm looking to upgrade my Z1 this year and I would absolutely LOVE it to be a new sony flagship I can be proud of. Otherwise, I will have to see what the new nexus will be and hope that it comes soon. I can't stand samsung, will never be an iphone user, and no one else has the unique flavor that only Sony can provide.

I personally hope there aren't any leaks and Sony surprise us all. The only thing I'm expecting due to the fact it's Sonys best selling flagship would be a new compact and I'd be very surprised if that didn't happen.

Is Sony even listening to the reviews or reading the editorial articles about them? Because if they are, they would have fixed some major issues like the camera software.
Also, they could have left the omnibalance design with the Z, and have a new design language with the X. They should bring back the old designers of the
days (Arc, NXT Series, Ray)
It is really time for SE to be the innovators. They cannot be complacent and ask $700 for a mid-range device over waterproofing and camera.
I really love Sony, and I don't like them closing the mobile division, but they really have a lot of things to think about.

About pricing, here in europe XA was announced at 300€ (ridiculous price) and have been a lot of time in pre-launch at that price, but now they hit the store and the price dropped to 250€ (not bad)
I really hope IFA will bring us something, i'm about to change phone, i need leaaaaaaaks!!!

We had ZERO leaks about X series! But they are hardly worth mentioning anyway... Nothing innovative and to speak about.

^Quick question, what was the last truly innovative piece of tech fitted to any phone?
Most innovations if you can call them that is just the same rehashed tech with a twist. There's no innovation on the S7 range that is "new" same could be said for the HTC 10 and the G5 with its expensive friends, they're OK but nothing you couldn't buy before. We have become so demanding as customers that manufacturers are just trying everything they can to stand out from the crowd when in all honesty it just confuses the mass public who just want a good looking phone that has decent battery life and maybe take a good photo and that's about it and that's why I love the X it's kind of a no frills smartphone that gets all the basics right with just the right amount of extras to satisfy the majority of users out there.
Mr Tripe, you can pick up the XA in the UK for £190 which is about €230 which for myself who had used the phone finds that very reasonable.

The OnePlus isnt that bad. The RAM management was simply a business decision and now they have started to roll out updates to fix it. But I do agree that SONY's UI is one of the best..at least to me. My Z2 is still awesome in term of performance, unfortunately after 2.5 years of use, it has taken a lot of beating and hence Im looking for a new phone. Even then SONYs high price tag isnt worth it when Samungs also has good software development and optimization and cost about the same.
Either SONY should give SAMSUNG a run for their money in terms of HW+SW or price their phones maybe just a bit more than the OnePlus and the likes.

Not much but SAMSUNG/Apple seem to have enough in their models to keep their fan base happy unlike SONY.

Look at huawei P9. That is the true innovative. Dual camera really do a good job at noise reduction and high detail picture.
While Xperia still doesn't have a full manual feature and still continue with poor "superior auto"
WTH =0= WTH
