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
  • Autofocus can be a little finicky on the camera
  • Cover flaps can get annoying
  • No infrared port for controllin

  • Excellent camera, good battery, great performance, water and dust-resistant design
  • Screen can look dull, Android skin doesn't add anything useful
  • The Sony Xperia Z2's IP-certified design, superior photography powers, super-fast performance and good battery life make it one of the best Android smartphones currently available....

  • Although not much has changed from the Xperia Z1, the Xperia Z2 is another solid effort from Sony. The smartphone is a good all-rounder with a great screen, camera, build quality and performance. We just wish it wasn't quite so bulky.>> Read on…Pages12Tag...

  • Fabulous performance, Excellent build quality, More waterproof than others
  • Snapper offers too much postprocessing, Gets too hot when recording 4K video, Bulky and uncomfortable to hold
  • The Sony Xperia Z2 is a top-notch smartphone with a list of specs that beats the likes of the HTC and Samsung's flagship devices. The OS proves easy to use, and the snapper performs beautifully in optimum conditions. Performance is excellent and the displ...

  Published: 2014-04-24, Author: LGR , review by: gadgetdaily.xyz

  • Abstract:  Sony has recently started updating its flagship handset every six months, so that the predecessor to the new Xperia Z2, the Xperia Z1 seems hardly to have been around for long enough to warrant a refresh.Yet that is what we have here – a familiar looking ...

  • Overall display quality with a warmer image than the Z1's, High performance, constantly responsive, Satisfactory battery life, Waterproof body, Sober, elegant design with quality finish, Useful apps and features, Best earphones ever included with a smartp
  • Same camera lens issues as in the previous models, Display: unfaithful colours, Rivals have longer battery life, Touchscreen goes haywire when hit by water
  • With the Xperia Z2, Sony has corrected a good deal of the issues encountered on the Xperia Z1, given it an even more sophisticated design and included just as many outstanding extra features, all without overcrowding the phone. It's a responsive device in...

  • Great build quality, hugely improved sound and display. And it shoots video in 4K.
  • This is still a very big phone and the design is starting to look a little blocky
  • In a spring dominated by beautifully designed smartphones, Sony manages to hold its own with a strong, powerful contender – even if the design hasn't been overhauled and the improvements aren't all worth it. Still, there's a great screen and that lovely ...

  • Did you like last year's Sony Xperia Z1 smartphone? It looked handsome, felt good and performed well, with a great camera and impressive waterproof features. The Xperia Z2 is all that the Z1 was but better. The screen is a big improvement, the performanc...

  • Lots of Sony extras, Nice power saving options, Good camera, Speedy performance
  • Blocky design, Heat issues
  • Sony has stuck to its tried and tested chassis design for the Xperia Z2, and I am not its biggest fan. The lip on the back is a real irritation, and the blocky shape is not easy to hold comfortably. There's lots of software on board over and above Androi...

  • Superb picture, Incredible sound, Waterproofing, Brilliant camera
  • Reflective front, Unwieldy design, Some bloatware on top of Android
  • The Z2 is one of the best Android phones money can buy. Is it the best Android? Possibly.With that bigger screen, improved performance, enhanced camera, excellent stereo sound and noise-cancelling, it's outstanding....

  Published: 2014-04-19, Author: Alastair , review by: Theinquirer.net

  • Abstract:  The Sony XPERIA Z2 has arrived, and looks to tempt users away from the likes of the Galaxy S5 , iPhone 5S and HTC One M8 . In terms of specs, there's no reason why the Xperia Z2 shouldn't. It features a 5.2in LED-backlit ...
