Much like previous Sony Xperia phones
Full HD screen
No wireless charging
Awkward volume rocker placement
Photos can lack fine detail when zoomed in
Sony has historically been slow with security updates
Its battery life doesn't impress
And nor does the camera. Its full HD display isn't as high resolution as most of its rivals

It's way too easy to hit the camera button
23 megapixel camera is set to 8 megapixels by default
I asked at the beginning of this review if the Xperia XZ was worth the asking price, and I can say quite emphatically that yes, it is. All aspects of the phone have impressed me. I love the new camera app as it is making me learn how to get the best out o...

The Sony Xperia XZ is the new top of the line Xperia range. If there are questions about why it has not even released in eight months after the release Xperia X Performance – which had similar characteristics -, well, Sony makes it clear that it considers...

Much better storage options, Duallens camera, Brighter, more vivid display
Design is looking slightly dated now, Awkward for wired headphone owners, Expensive
The Sony Xperia XZ looks to be a strong and well-balanced phone, but the top end of the smartphone market has never been more competitive. The likes of the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the HTC 10 are equally capable, but have been on the market for a little long...
The Xperia XZ is an attractive phone in design if you can get on with the angular style and while it's cheaper than rivals such as the iPhone 7 and Google Pixel, you can get better value with some older phones like the Samsung Galaxy S7. While the hardwar...
Excellent, colour accurate display, Fast performance, Great battery life
Rear camera isn't great, Design feels cheap
Ultimately, though, it's the Xperia XZ's price that is its main undoing, since it fails to undercut its key rivals. Available for £540 SIM-free or £36-per-month on contract, it costs almost as much as the S7, and a little more than the LG G5. Then there's...
Once again, Sony has produced a flagship smartphone that's more than competent enough to stand tall with the industry's big dogs. The improvements to its camera may not place it in the realms of the Samsung Galaxy S7, and its battery may not last quite as...
