Mobile broadband speeds are solid
Fantastic design and build quality

The editors didn't like
Plastic back prone to scratches and many
Many finger/oil marks
Bezels
Plenty of them
Camera button is much too small
Camera UI could be more intuitive and tailored to users
Smaller screen can be fiddly for typing
Camera button is a bit of a disaster
Ordinary looking
Poor bundled services
Awful low light photography
Glass back prone to smudges
It's not running the latest version of Android and some of Sony's software tweaks don't really add anything to the experience
Camera has load of megapixels
But will only spit out either an 8 megapixel image if you actually want controls (like the Z1)
