The Sony Xperia Z2 has a glorious screen
Tonnes of power
A great camera and a beautiful design. It's waterproof too
So it won't conk out when you drop it in the bath
Great build quality
Excellent battery life capable of achieving at least a day of life and well into a second day
Superb camera
With great low-light support and 4K UHD video capture
Fun creative camera effects which go beyond what most smartphone manu
The editors didn't like
Chunky design
Fiddly UI in places
Button placement can be pretty frustrating
Size and shape makes the phone hard to hold
Glass back is a worry
”Superior Auto” camera mode is far from it
It often thinks of surfaces as slip ‘n slides
Can be unwieldy
Glass front and rear durable but remains questionable
Overheating concerns while recording video
Bundled Sony apps overlap with one another to the point of redundancy
Big in size
It's expensive
Its regular autofocus adjustments during shooting can spoil videos
And the camera resolution is throttled when using the full automatic mode
The rectangular size can still be a little awkward to hold
Especially for smaller hands
Camera's manual mode needs some actual manual control

Sony continue to make a mark on the mobile industry by rather cleverly updating its flagships twice a year to remain on top of its game. The Xperia Z2 isn't a dramatic improvement to the Z1, but to the Z ‒ which seems like a distant cousin despite being ...

Sure, it costs a bundle, but the Sony Xperia Z2 is everything you should expect from a top-end phone. Its impressive performance rivals the Samsung Galaxy S5 for smartphone top dog, but the Z2's slick glass and metal design trumps the S5's plastic body. ...
