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

Sleek minimalist design, Dust and water resistant IP58 rating, Beautiful Full HD 5.2inch IPS display, Powerful frontfacing stereo speakers
Lack of innovation, Not different enough from the Z1, Laggy camera app, Under average battery life

Amazing Camera, Excellent Battery Life, Great Display
A bit on the big and heavy side, Can get rather hot, Can only record 4k in short bursts
The best way to define the Xperia Z2 is that it smoothens the rough edges on the Xperia Z1. It's by no means a revolutionary product but with 6-month product cycles, Sony never intended it to be one. But what a good job has Sony done fine-tuning a produ...
