The editors didn't like
The camera isn't as good as Sony would like us to believe
Neither is the battery life – power users need to carry a power pack or have a charger on hand
Inexcusable pauses and slowdowns
Despite updates in the interim
Rear lip is a turnoff on the stand
Only minor updates from its predecessor means it lacks the excitement of its rivals. Its waterproofing no longer allows for full submersion
Meaning it can't be used for underwater photography
Phone can get a little warm
Battery won't hit two days (as advertised) even with Stamina mode
Elegant Looks, Brighter Display, Dust and Waterproof, Excellent Camera, Fingerprint Scanner, MicroSD Support, Excellent Audio Performance, Dedicated Camera trigger, Good Battery Life
Heats on Load, Flimsy Buttons, No Wireless Charging, Expensive

Sony's mobile division has been in a rut for a while. If IDC's latest report is anything to go by, dominance by the likes of Huawei and Lenovo is only adding to the company's woes. Rather than sticking with the standard formula of yearly refreshes, Sony d
Heats up quickly, Pre-installed bloatware, Not competitive enough, Slow camera; No Burst mode
Sony's new flagship comes just a few months after its previous flagship so we didn't expect much to change and truth be told, very little has. Sure, it is slightly better looking and the battery life has improved a bit, but you'd have to be a die-hard Son...
Beautiful build, Excellent display, Fluid performance, Stellar audio, 4K video looks really good
Generates heat under heavy usage, Glitches during prolonged gaming, Oversaturated colours captured by camera, Power button is too dented
The Sony Xperia Z5 is a beautiful smartphone. It looks good, feels good, sounds good, and almost performs good, unless you really want to game hard on your smartphone. Sony has bet big on its present generation flagship smartphone, but the Xperia Z5 does...
