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
With a larger, better display, faster processor, longer battery life, stereo speakers, and 4K video recording, the Z2 looks like an obvious pick before the Z1, especially considering that it is housed in the same footprint. Do these enhancements warran...

improved screen from Xperia Z1, lighter than you'd expect, good battery – 11 hours, good stereo speakers, excellent camera, night capture is great, great video capture, lots of voice call options, better grip, waterproof and dust proof, 3 GB of RAM, And h
low benchmarks, same design format for about 2 years, same UI for 2 years, could be brighter, big headphones coming out of the ears, a bit of overheating, lots of bloatware
The Xperia Z2 feels like the third step of a longer journey that Sony started early last year with the Xperia Z. It’s a gradual evolution, in hardware and software design, with more polished looks, faster chips, and overall better performance, and this...
Solid and eyepleasing design, Large and vibrant display, Streamlined and polished user experience, Quality camera
A bit bulky, Slightly oversaturated screen, Average speakers
In the end, the Sony Xperia Z2 managed to meet the great expectations we had for it. It's supposed to be Sony's no-compromise flagship Android smartphone, and more often than not, it proves it deserves that title.The design? Well, we would be lying if ...
Abstract: "Loaded is one way to describe it, but there's a lot more to Sony's latest flagship than just specs. Here's a quick review"Sony just dropped its powerhouse, the Xperia Z2 in India for Rs 49,990, sweetening the deal by including quite a few freebies. The S...
Premium looks and elegant design, Impervious to water, Gorgeous full HD display Very good camera, Useful software features and loads of tweaking and customisation options, Fast, speedy and zippy. Smooth too, Good battery life
Blocky design and large size make it a tad unwieldy to hold, A few software features look obnoxious No exciting, killer feature
There's no doubt that the Sony Xperia Z2 is a lot of phone, even for its high asking price. It's got quite a few things going for it, including premium looks, waterproof capabilities, a gorgeous and vastly-improved display, useful software features, a com...
Basically everything about the hardware. The lightness, the thinness, the lovely screen, the front-facing speakers, the waterproofiness, the Snapdragon 801, the 3GB RAM. All that stuff is just great. We also like that it can power noise canceling earbuds,
In contrast, it's basically all software. Again. The skin Sony puts on just doesn't work very well. It slows things down, it makes things look worse, and it's less intuitive to use than stock Android. In fact, if this thing was a Nexus device and ran stoc
If you dont mind installing a third-party launcher (many of which are excellent, free in the Google Play app store, and take seconds to install, even for non-techies) and you want a full-sized Android tablet, then YES, absolutely. If youre willing to go...
Abstract: Sony starts its quest to be the best with the most important component on any device: the display. Muted and lifeless LCDs were a chronic weakness of the company's previous Xperia devices, so the new Live Color LED screens on the Z2 and Z2 Tablet make for...
Abstract: OK, so I have had hands-on with 2 of the most desired phones this month. And I have been swapping between them for an immersive experience. Which one would I choose as my next smartphone?Frankly, it is a tough decision, because both models have their stre...
Great camera, takes fantastic photos with Superior Auto Mode, and has many manual options, Superb display, Excellent overall performance and battery life, Beautiful design with dedicated camera button
Some minor bugs, No option for 32GB, 20.7 MP photo option only available in Manual Mode, Weak speakers
The Sony Xperia Z2 is one of the best Android devices currently available, thanks to its excellent overall performance, beautiful design, and a camera that takes fantastic photos....
