Xperia XZ start hanging alot after nougat update

Hi everyone I purchased this smartphone about 2 month before, in beginning it was working flawlessly n I was satisfied from its performance. But since Obama nougat it's routine performance effected badly because it start heating n hanging during Skype calls browsing Facebook n playing mid processing games.
Even during Skype calls it take lot of time to open whatsapp or Facebook n during that process it becomes hot like pressure cooker. I used Galaxy Note 4 for 2 years n trust me I didn't face anything annoyed like this n don't forget Note 4 has low processing power as compared to this crop. I am really upset from this situation I also make hard reset but that two didn't solve my problem I have installed about 170 different apps including games.
Any solution please

After latest update (in finland), 39.2.A.0.417. I can say that this phone is the worst phone what I ever used (I miss my old Z3)... Lacking/Hanging... Almost out of the box phone (only 10 extra applications).. Even if I try to dropdown "systray" screen is waiting and waiting... Also Chrome usage is out of this world....

I would say to all users don't update the phone.... It is possible that you need throw phone it towards water birds....

This mobile is very heavy battery drainer and also monster battery drainer on standby mode.
And camera is so bed pixels are damaging on zooming not better than samsung j7 camera. And so hanging mobile during call and using Internet.
And this problems starts with nuget 7.0 update with 39.2.A.0.417
I was purchased this mobile for only battery performance and for best camera. I was also fan of sony products
But now i am not happy with this updates and xperia xz kindly resolve as soon as.

Hmm, 
on the newest 0.417 I am experiencing apps to hang completely and crash/restart. 
Mostly it happens for Toutube in my case, I reported to Google but not sure if it is caused by them as periodically it happens for other apps too. Scrolling is rather smooth in case of using Sony UI and not that great in 3rd party apps like facebook. I also notice a very small lags from time to time like system needs to think 1s before doing what I ordered it to do (open apps etc.).

On the other hand, it is very strange but my battery life has a huge improvement.
Recently I had 7h 17m SOT and still 13% of battery life (Stamina turned on automatically when it was 15% of battery). To be honest I do not put the brightness of my screen to max, I usually keep it below 50% with Automatic brightness turned on. But I am using this screen setting always like that. For this result I was using a lot of WiFi, Internet browsing using Chrome, sometimes GPS and music by bluetooth. I do not know what happened to my phone but SOT is now much better for me than it was which is great Slightly_smiling_Face Before I was getting abour 4,5h - 5,5h SOT time. Rarely 6h. Now it is about or even over 7 hours Slightly_smiling_Face

And yes, battery drain is higher when Idle, it is now second process on the list of power consumtion just after the screen. I hope Sony will resolve these issues without affecting great battery life.

Would be nice to have better app management, I know the issue - 3GB of RAM Slightly_frowning_Face

Facing same issue lagging when there are some notifications, multi tasking, playing games etc. After Restarting my device it works fine for some time then again same issue arises. 

Android 7.1.1 

Facing this issue from around 3 months. Most probably after android 7.0 update.

Yes we knew the XZ was underspecced on RAM and now 6 months after launch even midrange phones come with 4GB. Nougat needs 4GB.

same issue on Z3+
before upgrade, my phone just only have camera app closing by overheat issue. apps crashing is just a few in a month.

after upgrade to nougat. not only cemera is closing, YouTube is closing by overheat too(Thanks, SONY! Face_with_rolling_Eyes ). EVERY apps are crashing everyday, 3-5 times per day. sometime it froze and blackout, I can't do anything with my phone, just doing force restart.

maybe it's SONY fault or Nougat fault
