Display

Forbes said the Sony Xperia Premium is the first smartphone with 4K display which delivers a "bright, sharp and fantastic" quality for its 5.5-inch screen.

"See every detail with more pixels per inch. That's around 10x the pixels of a Full HD TV, and more than double for most smartphones," read the Z5 Premium's description on the Sony Mobile website.

On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is equipped with a Quad HD AMOLED screen which has "bright and crisp" quality as per TechnoBuffalo.

Camera

According to CNET, the Z5 Premium is equipped with a powerful 23-megapixel main camera while the Samsung device has a 16MP rear camera.

Processor and battery

Engadget reported that the newest Xperia release powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor and a battery which can last for two days.

"Watch more films, listen to more music, carry on chatting and stay out without a care. When you do need topping up, Xperia Z5 Premium can be used together with our Quick Charger for hours of power in just 10 minutes," added Sony Mobile.

Meanwhile, TechnoBuffalo said the Note 5 runs on an Octa-core Exynos 7420 chipset.O

Other features

For its performance, the same report said the applications and tasks in the phone were also fast improving the users' Android experience.

"They say the cameras -- a 16MP f1.9 rear; 5MP f.19 front -- open in 0.7 seconds, which seems about right. It certainly opened the camera faster than my iPhone 6 did," the review added.
