Looks great. It's sl
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

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
Not a big step forward again, Overlay still a bit unintuitive
The Sony Xperia Z3 isn't a phone that's going to get anyone excited, simply because it's been churning out flagships at a rate of knots for years now. That said, and I know it sounds obvious, but this is the best phone that Sony's ever made... and it's b...

Abstract: We've said it before, and we'll say it again. The Sony Xperia Z3 has arguably the most underrated designs around! Being good looking is one thing, but the designers over at Sony's camp delivered an impressive offering in the Xperia Z3 – one that adds a h...
Abstract: Gaining even more steam just in time for its impending release stateside, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is no doubt going to be a major force to be reckoned with when it's finally unleashed. Many prized smartphones stand in its way, but as we've seen thus far, i...
Abstract: Despite creating beautiful devices, Sony hasn't seen the growth in mobile that it has hoped for, which has led the Japanese giant to announce its plans to scale back its mobile efforts going forward . There are numerous possible reasons why Sony isn't in ...

Battery life, design, sound, camera, waterproof, 4K video
The glass back could use more scratch resistance to match the strength of the front screen
The Sony Xperia Z3 is an exceptional device across the board from performance to camera quality and sound. It has a great design, is light and really comfortable to hold and the water and dust proof rating on it truly makes this a phone that you can take...
Abstract: Marketed with “Demand Great” by Sony, the XPERIA Z3 is a high-end phone that has a lot of attributes that are attractive: a thin metal and glass design, an IP65/68 ruggedness rating (water and dustproof), along with Sony's best camera sensor available for...
Sony might not have high hopes for its mobile future, but the company has made a winner in the Xperia Z3. The design is sophisticated, the camera is great, and battery life is excellent. Is it worth an upgrade from the Z2? Probably not—you should wait and...
Abstract: The best part about picking out a new Android phone is the huge level of choice and diversity the platform provides: With so many different manufacturers creating devices, there's something available for practically every purpose and preference imaginable...
