Bare Android UI is fast, preinstalled apps are useful, good selfie camera, long battery life
Poor main camera, average performance, pricey

Review: X-pecting the Un-X-pected – Sony Xperia XGrowing up, I was and still am a huge fan of Sony. From the early days of PlayStation to its VIAO series of laptops, Sony has never made me doubt its ability to provide great products time and time again. A...
The Sony Xperia X is a good smartphone. It really is: it's well-designed, has good battery life, and its display is bright and vibrant. The issue is quite simply the fact that the X does not seem to offer any kind of value for money: Sony is clearly playi...

Over-vivid display colour for camera preview, Camera can't match the best, No 4K video capture
Want the latest and greatest that phones have to offer? Or a startling smartphone bargain? You won't get either of those with the Sony Xperia X. It's a sign the company has lost some of its confidence and realised that fighting with Samsung and Apple at t...

Beautiful design, Frontfacing stereo speakers, Amazing performance, Good camera
Short battery life, Only 3GB of RAM, Surprising vibration during playback
