Looks great. It's sl
The Sony Xperia Z3 packs great battery life

Slick
But ergonomic design
Amazing battery life
PlayStation 4 Remote Play is the definition of killer app
Great display
Exceptional camera

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
Sony Xperia Z3 impresses on most counts. Apart from the heating issue, there was barely anything major to criticise. The camera performance and battery life performance in particular are quite good. The refinements in the design are a welcome change, alth...
Brilliant Battery Life, Support for PS4, Little Less Bezel
Bit too Gimmicky, Not a Big Upgrade
Sony says that the battery inside the Xperia Z3 can last two days on a single charge. And that too without the power-saving Stamina Mode activated. However, Sony has dropped down from a 3,200mAh battery on the Z2 to a 3,100mAh battery on the Z3...

Great battery life, Waterproof and dust proof certified, Excellent camera with 4K recording
Glossy design makes it slippery, Not a huge update from its predecessor
The Xperia Z3 maintains Sony's pedigree of great smartphones and while it does not come with any major changes when compared to the Z2, it is still a worthy flagship smartphone. It has some minor upgrades which makes it better than the Z2 and it also come...
Water and dust protection, Stylish design, Excellent sound output, Interesting camera features, Long battery life.
Purple tinge in camera, Hard to grip, Halfbaked 4K video recording
If you're in for the best-looking waterproof handset with a lot of power, go for the Xperia Z3. The phone also impresses with its battery life and sound quality. The camera quality has improved over its predecessor, but it still has its own share of issu...
From a technological standpoint, the Xperia Z3 seems to have appeared way too soon. There's not much that could or has been upgraded and Sony too has played it safe. The phone has little over the erstwhile flagship ie the Z2. This proves to be a problem f...
Good, Slim, light and well built, Superb performance, Excellent camera quality, Dust- and water-resistant
Too much bloatware, Expensive
The Z3 might be newer than its contemporaries, but the downside of that is that its price hasn't had time to settle. At Rs. 51,990, the Z3 is significantly more expensive than the Samsung Galaxy S5, HTC One (M8) and LG G3. You'll really have to consider w...
