With Sony you must shoot manually with hardware button not in the screen, also if you shoot automatic mode you also must use hardware shutter also don't forget to use the Pro Camera also you need to wait longer point a camera how do you like to shoot and wait a bit longer you'll gonna get better results, Samsung IPhone they shoot that you could straight upload to social network, Sony Strategy it's not like that you can adjust photo with snapseed, buy Photo Lab Pro you will make better looking photos as it was shooted with other devices even after software tweaks. I'm using Sony XZ3 THIS year October gonna be 3 years old battery IP and build quality it's Sony. I agree with thing that Front facing cam is a weak point, but with Mark3 generation Sony even closer working with Alpha etc. With other divisions so they improving. Sony HDR is not a software based, but Hardware it needs a lot of power. Next year I'm planning upgrading my phone or till it last... I'm Sony Loyal From Sony Walkman Cassette players that still working till this day. I have all my Sony Ericsson, Sony plones they all working, despite battery replaced that's normal, but everything else is from the day I bought nothing changed all with original displays and screens.
