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

A bit unwieldy, More prone to scratches

Having used the Z2 for a few days, we can't help but think that this is the phone the Z1 should have been in the first place. The IPS display is noticeably better, with richer colors and better viewing angles, and the removal of the anti-shatter film fina...

Large, beautiful display, Goodlooking device, 20,7MP camera, Various camera modes (Timeshift, Background defocus, etc), 4K recording, Dust and waterresistant, Large 3,200mAh capacity battery,
Glass and aluminium unibody, yet light, Frontfacing speakers are much louder than the Z1's, Speakers are not muffled when face down, Best nonstock UI, Waterproof
Glass back is slippery and collects fingerprints, Device gets really hot when recording in 4K/2160p, Images are noisy if there is direct light into lens
What can I say? The Japanese have finally hit the nail 100% on the head. While their Z1 was their first properly competitive device, the Z2 is the first to actually make headway into the mainstream crowd.Sony CEO unveiling the Z2 | PHOTO CREDIT: DESIGNBYT...
