The Sony Xperia Z3 packs great battery life
A brilliant display
Beautiful design and waterproof features. If you own a PS4
You'll also be able to play PS4 games remotely on your phone
Slick
But ergonomic design
Amazing battery life
PlayStation 4 Remote Play is the definition of killer app
Great display
Exceptional camera
Long battery
Water- and dust- proof
Glass and aluminium body
Lovely build and finish that fits nicely in the hands
Water and dust resistance at IP68 certification
Unlike the Z3 Compact
The sides actually fit in well
Boosting that water resistance
Great performance
Solid 4G speeds with Category 4 connectivity
Great twoday battery life
Screen is sharp and colourful
Impressively slim and lightweight
Solid everyday performance
The editors didn't like
Not a big step forward again
Overlay still a bit unintuitive
That waterproof isn't infallible. I have drowned a Z3. Fortunately
It was replaced immediately at no cost
Lack of Qi charging is an annoyance for a waterproof phone
So it's either fiddly port covers
Or magnetic charging docks
Some features are annoyi
The UI can use updating -- all the icons just look way too big. While it may have a 20.7-megapixel camera
Autofocus can be a little off
But nothing a quick tap on the screen can't fix
Camera prone to overheating
Very similar to the Xperia Z2
Rare flagship without IR transmitter
No finger scanner
Very
Very slippery -- it fell off our desks several times! Can get a little hot

Great twoday battery life, Screen is sharp and colourful, Impressively slim and lightweight, Solid everyday performance
Camera is average, Plastic port flaps are kinda annoying, Sony apps add little to the package
As we said above, the Xperia Z3 is a solid all-rounder, a great everyday phone pumped up by great battery life and brought down by an average camera experience. It may not compare well on paper with the new Samsung Galaxy S6 or LG G4, by in all ways the Z...
Abstract: And there's still hardened glass covering both the front and back, which makes for a phone that feels good in the hand — and not too slippery. Those rounded edges have also resulted in better-fitting sealed port covers that seem more secure than ever — an...

I've been using the Xperia Z3 for the last month now, which is somewhat unusual for an Ausdroid review; we have this luxury because I bought the device myself. This isn't to say that Sony didn't offer us a review device; they surely did, but I knew I want...

In terms of all-round performance and feature packing, Sony's Xperia Z3 is a slam dunk as far as smartphones go, packing in plenty of camera, multimedia, and gaming smarts in something still recognisable as a phone.There is just so much here to love, from...
The Xperia Z3 is the best smartphone Sony has ever made and has plenty of appeal for any Android owner in the market for an upgrade. Though it took a few refinements, Sony's prowess in industrial design, display technology, imaging sensors, audio, video ...

Camera prone to overheating, Very similar to the Xperia Z2,
At times, the Sony Xperia Z3 feels just another high-end Android phone; it follows the template to a tee: 5-inch plus screen, quad-core processor around the 2Ghz mark, 2 to 3GB of RAM, and 16GB of expandable storage with an $800ish price tag. But where o...
