Nice phone, disappointing camera
2 of 2 found this helpful I bought this phone primarily for the 23M pixel Sony camera which has turned out to be a disappointment. The pictures have a lot of noise and there are strange artifacts which appear to be caused by too much sharpening. A quick google of these problems reveals that other keen photographers have noticed the same problem and Sony do not appear to be fixing it. I've tried using 3rd party camera apps with no improvement in picture quality. The picture quality on my previous Samsung Galaxy S5 was better.
The rest of the phone is good. The screen is nice, the case has a solid feel, the fingerprint scanner is reliable and works well, battery life for me is 2-3 days (I don't use the phone a lot), sound quality using proper Senheiser headphones is good. Radio performance is about average - it drops calls in the same places my Galaxy S5 drops calls.
Overall it's a good phone but with a camera that is over-hyped by Sony. If you are not a keen photographer then you will proabably not notice the shortcomings in the camera - this is a great phone for you. If however you are a keen photographer then look elsewhere - you will be disappointed by the noisy grainy detail in photos.

AT33PTG with Onkyo CP1050
1 of 1 found this helpful I upgraded to this cartridge from an Ortofon 2M Blue moving magnet. After a couple of weeks of running in the detail is amazing. This moving coil cartridge plucks detail from the vinyl that I didn't know was present. I've switched back and forth between the Ortofon and the AT and the difference is clear. I now find it difficult to listen to the moving magnet cartridge because I've become used to the detail of the moving coil.
It was a bit fiddly to set up. The stylus is tiny so I was paranoid about accidently ripping it off the cartridge body. It's sensitive to alignment so you need to spend time getting the stylus position and alignment spot on.
I've now had it for 2 months and it works great, even on my budget Onkyo turntable that cost less than the cartridge.

Onkyo CP1050 with Ortofon 2M Blue
1 of 1 found this helpful I upgraded to this turntable from a Project basic. I can't comment on the standard cartridge as I've never used it. I'm using the deck with a Sony amp and Wharfedale Jade 5. The turntable looks nice and feels good quality. Compared to the Project, the pitch stability is better because of the quartz locked motor. There is also a lower level of rumble. Compared to the Project turntable the Onkyo has a quality feel and is just nicer to use.
The Ortofon 2M Blue works well with the turntable; it gives a clearer more detailed sound than the old deck with the OM10 cartridge. The low frequencies could do with a bit more emphasis, but that may be my personal taste.
The removable headshell makes changing the cartridge easy, and therefore it is easy to upgrade by fitting better and better cartridges. I'm sure eventually with a very good cartridge you will find the shortcomings of the turntable. For the price it's a great piece of kit. I would recommend it strongly.
