Great new design
Strong battery
PS4 Remote Play
That battery life
Though. Without Stamina mode
It easily lasts a day. With it
It could easily last two
Close to stock experience
With enough tweaks to make it more enjoyable
Effortless. Doesn't take long to set up and customise
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
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

Light touch or a complete overhaul is a likely dilemma when upgrading a flagship. Users have been seeing more of the former recently while clearly hoping for the latter. Now, that's the real dilemma most manufacturers have to deal with. Customers are incr...

A great battery life, A powerhouse that can handle anything you throw at it, One of the best displays that I've experienced, Solid build, Fuss free with very little bloatware. The ones that are preinstalled can be uninstalled, Tons of hidden features wait
An incremental upgrade is not so exciting anymore. I've yet to see something groundbreaking from Sony in years, Having a glass sheet for the back panel that is not scratchproof is not a smart move, Think it's way past its time for a better front camera an
I can't say that the Sony Xperia Z3 is like no other as it definitely carries the DNA of its last two predecessors. This brings me back again to what I've been saying from the beginning: Sony did not take any chances with the Z3 nor did it break new groun...
The Sony Xperia Z3 is all one could ask for in an Android smartphone. It's powerful, has a large beautiful display, and features a powerful battery to boot.(previously published in issue December 2014)...

While the odds were pretty much in Apple's favor when comparing the iPhone 5s and the Sony Xperia Z1, somehow the choice isn't so clear when pitting the the iPhone 6 and Xperia Z3.For the Apple iPhone 6, its biggest strength lies in its glass. It's surpri...
