This is a new duel of giants that we offer this Wednesday with a comparison of data sheets Samsung Galaxy S6 + Edge Z5 and Sony Xperia Premium. Two upscale phablettes we hear talk probably within the next week.
The Edge + is already commercially available. Samsung has taken a step ahead in this fall 2015, with an official announcement, which took place in New York in mid-August. A good way to avoid delays in the ignition to the general public and tickle his rivals. Apple topped the list. In front, the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium. PHABLET which we expect a lot, presented in Berlin in early September and will be available officially in November that.
As we have stated in the introduction of this article, this comparison only deals with the technical sheet. Indeed, we have not yet tested both phones. We can not say we exactly on processor performance or photo sensor for example. Similarly we do not yet know whether the Z5 Premium 4K screen will bring this depth to the image that Sony has touted us at IFA. We will build on our still lived the first two devices from Samsung S6 range but also earned him the Xperia Z range including the Z3. We will be able to offer a series of comparative tests between the two devices in the course of autumn 2015 when we have the test.
Design and dimensions
| Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge + | Sony Xperia Z5 Premium | |
| Height | 154.4 mm | 154.4 mm |
| Width | 75.8 mm | 76 mm |
| Thickness | 6.9 mm | 7.8 mm |
| Weight | 153 grams | 181 grams |
The South Korean manufacturer has the same design that made the success Edge S6. Including curved edges on both sides and the back finish tempered glass and metal edges. The grip is identical to that of the smartphone version if this is only the format changes. But this is not very troublesome. At least we have not noticed big differences in the first grip we could do late August. The longer the PHABLET is its weight. Only 153 grams on the scale. A real performance to be welcomed. We still have a small question on the overall grip of the unit with a rather large screen size. She will be as comfortable as on the Edge S6? We can give you a more precise answer that when we test more deeply the device.
Do not be surprised if the Premium Z5 gives you a pad printing the first time you see it. It is fading slowly. It’s the little details provided by Sony to design that take over. We find the combination back glass – metal edge that made the signing of the Xperia Z for some time. Except that it is tempered glass frosted here and not like the little brothers of PHABLET. Hope that the Japanese firm has solved the problems of slipping it could know some versions of the phone. The framework is made of metal but is distinguished by two or three cosmetic trifles that it seems important to point out. It starts with the engraving of the name of the range (Xperia) on the right edge to accentuate the Premium side. You will find, always on the right spine, wearing micro-SD / SIM card. Présencee This is not trivial. Android manufacturers tend to want to do without for a few months. Samsung is the most telling example. The right spine is best characterized by the aesthetic change the Power button that now includes a fingerprint reader. We are measured when the Sony’s ambitions on this feature. Teams from France Sony explained that the reader would serve us at first that unlock the PHABLET. Validation of Internet payments arrive later. And after ? Nothing announced yet. Hopefully the reader will not be present only for himself at the height of competition.

screen
| Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge + | Sony Xperia Z5 Premium | |
| Screen Size | 5.7 inch | 5.5 inches |
| Resolution | QHD (2,560 x 1,440 pixels) | 4K (3840 x 2160) |
| pixel density by inch | 518 ppi | 806 ppi |
+ The Edge wants larger than the S6. The screen rises from 5.1 to 5.7 inches. Is the same size as the latest generation of Galaxy Note. The resolution is the same as the Edge. Either of QHD at a rate of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels. Treatment of Super AMOLED screen looks identical to the first two of the S6 line appliances. A good point because they are really excellent screens suitable for all uses (video, video games, reading). We always will issue this reserve on a screen with as many pixels employment on such a small surface. Full HD would probably have been enough but QHD seems to become the standard in the premium segment of Android and – above all -. The autonomy does not seem to be affected by this resolution
Sony did not simply follow Samsung, LG or Motorola with qHD screens. The manufacturer apparently had heart to surprise with its Z5 Premium. No qHD screen so a slab 4K! A first for a phone. The screen size is smaller than that of their opponents with 5.5 inches. Or the same diagonal as the iPhone 6S Plus or LG G4. The first glimpse of the screen is very bright. There is little chance that Sony misses. The firm enjoys the work and the expertise of its Bravia division. A guarantee of quality. However, we question the value of having as many pixels on a small screen. The company’s marketing says that immersion in the image will be larger. Either. We can add that the firm will use its 4K display as a demonstration tool expertise (it would be wrong to deny it) and an additional means of democratizing technology. Especially the contents come gradually and that Sony is one of the major actors (production and distribution of content). As for the user in his daily life remains to be demonstrated

Power and storage
| Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge + | Sony Xperia Z5 Premium | |
| processor | Samsung Exynos 7420 | Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 |
| Graphics chip | ARM Mali -T760 MP8 | Adreno 430 |
| RAM | 4 GB | 3 GB |
| Media | 32 GB | 32 GB |
| Micro-SD | No | Yes |
Continuity also for engine Samsung Galaxy S6 + Edge. We find a motor home, the Exynos 7420, supported by a graphics chip ARM Mali-T760 MP8, and GB more than the smartphones of the range for RAM, 4GB instead of 3GB. Suffice to say that it will be a little more powerful and should occupy a prominent place in our ranking of the most powerful devices. Storage side is a little disappointment with one version (32 GB). It is rumored that a 64GB configuration could happen in a few weeks but nothing official. The real problem is that Samsung has decided to dispense with the SD card slot for his S6 range. No opportunities to increase the storage space so

It’s not that we have a doubt Premium Z5 but still. The manufacturer, like HTC or LG, failed to control the overheating problems of Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 of its Xperia Z3 +. Except that it is the same for the whole range Z5. Logic suggests that the builder benefits from the second generation of the processor and therefore is not a victim of this problem. Only in testing the PHABLET that we will be able to bring you a concrete answer. One version also storage for Premium Z5 (and the two unit series with 32GB) except you can increase it up to 200 GB with a micro SD card.

Photos
We choquerons person if we write the S6 series is probably the best in its class for pictures on mobile. We place it in front of the LG and iPhone G4 6 Plus. The Edge S6 + should logically be part of this lineage. The PHABLET retains the same 16 megapixel sensor and all the accompanying device to improve the treatment of the image (autofocus, opening …).
Sony is a reference for pictures on mobile . This is not new. The Japanese firm team half of the smartphone market with the iPhone! Its sensors and lenses have repeatedly proven their effectiveness. The Z5 range means cross a new stage and become THE ultimate reference of the photo on mobile with a 23 megapixel sensor and improvements to the autofocus lens and sold as the fastest of the market (0.3 seconds). The improvements we will be sure to test and analyze when we test devices naturally. The games that are coming with the iPhone, the LG G4 or Galaxy promise to be played.
Price
| Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge + | Sony Xperia Z5 Premium | |
| 32 GB | 799 euros | 799 euros |
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge + is already available in France. Without his subscription price is set at 799 euros for 32 GB of storage. However, its price should fall in the coming months. The discount on Android devices is much faster than Apple with the iPhone.
The Sony Xperia Premium Z5 is not expected before next November. Announced its sale price is the same as the Edge + S6. Is 799 euros. But it would not be surprising that he dropped by then. The British division of Sony Mobile has lowered the price of the entire range.
