The editors liked
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

beautifully built, premium feeling, exceptional performance, excellent camera, water and dust proof construction, great battery life
software is inconsistent at times, notifications are rather low in volume, headphone volume could be higher
So, should you buy it? It's a small improvement over the Z2, which was a small improvement over the Z1.We'll say this: if you currently own a Z2, you might want to wait for the Z4, which should land early next year. If you are looking to upgrade your curr...
Further refined aesthetics, Great display experience, Great sound experience, Sturdy, IP certified design, Powerful camera, Minimalistic but very useful Xperia UI
Upgrade might not be substantial for veteran users, Performance package is a step behind current competition, Best camera features are disjointed
Right from the start of this camera comparison, we were confident that the Galaxy Note 4 was not going to disappoint. Our expectations were correct, as it turned out. Samsung's phablet and its remarkable 16MP camera got the highest final score, and it is ...

Samsung's Galaxy S5 is getting a bit long in the tooth already, just half a year after introduction, and Sony's six-month upgrade strategy seems like a winning bet when you have to choose between the S5 with the new Xperia Z3 this holiday season. It is sl...
Highly attractive, waterresistant body, One of the best cameras on an Android phone, Excellent battery life
Large and heavy, Underwhelming viewing angles, Tiny camera key
Sony Xperia Z3 Without a doubt, the Sony Xperia Z3 is a flagship on the level of — and in some ways above – the One (M8), Galaxy S5, or any other its better-known Android competitors. It's attractive and powerful, with top-tier battery life, clever int...

These are two stunningly closely matched handsets. Both are well built and powerful, fast and with great displays. Ultimately your choice will be a subjective one on design and build, with the added spice that the Xperia Z3 probably marginally shades the ...
nice materials, stylish design with rounded corners, dust and water protected, great cameras, very good connectivity, very bright display, very clear voice quality, numerous accessories are available, Remote Play with PlayStation 4, very good battery life
back side is a bit slippery, prone to fingerprints, bluish display, battery is not replaceable, low internal memory, GPS is partly inaccurate, speakers are only good average, shorter battery life under load than predecessor
Existing customers might take offense that Sony rapidly updates their products: They might just have bought the Xperia Z2 and the new model is already available, which is even better in several aspects. Sony actually satisfied many of our wishes raised ...

Both the iPhone 6 and the Xperia Z3 are the best efforts that design juggernauts like Apple and Sony managed to come up with this season, and there's no room for disappointment with either result. Thin and stylish, they look and feel premium in the hand, ...

Sony's OmniBalance design language is epitomized in the most stylish Xperia to date with the Z3, while the plasticky nature of Samsung's phablet line barely budges in the Note 4. Samsung's handset is bigger, but comes with a 20% larger, ultra high-res scr...
