Abstract: A few months ago Sony announced the new Sony Xperia XZ Premium, the review unit was kindly sent into review from Vodafone.co.uk, many thanks. Phones generally concentrate on one or two areas where they shine, and Sony has always been about the camera, whi...

That screen, Great camera in the right conditions, Super Slo Mo @ 960fps, Great headphone audio, I like how it looks
It's fighting with the top phones, Still need more 4K content
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is an impressive handset. You get an excellent 4K display, as well as plenty of power to drive it. There is also a great camera and solid battery life. All these come together to make a suitably amazing top-level smartphone.Howe...

The best resolution we've seen on a smartphone, Unique design, Good camera
4K smartphones are still fairly redundant, Screentobody ratio isn't good, Battery life is disappointing
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is the best 4K smartphone out there. It's still more than a little pointless, of course, but it's hard to deny that it looks very good...
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is a stunning smartphone, both in terms of design and performance. The mirror-like look isn't for everyone due to the appearance of smudges, but it helps provide an elegant, high-end look.The 4K HDR display is one-of-a-kind, bri...
This is another tricky comparison to make a call on. However, we feel the OnePlus 5 edges it by offering a sleek design and high-end specs for a much cheaper price. The Sony Xperia XZ Premium might have a 4K HDR screen, 960fps slow mo and waterproofing bu...

Image 15 of 15Let me pin my colours to the mast one more time, just in case I wasn't clear before: a 4K screen on a phone is silly. It's innovation for innovation's sake, rather than practically useful. The human eye can't tell the difference on such a sm...

The Sony Xperia XZ Premium's awesome screen, supercharged processor and unique slow-motion video mode rightly earn this phone its premium name
This is the same design premium Sony phones have used for years and it's starting to feel old and boring. The limited camera interface makes the phone feel crude. The fingerprint reader is turned off in the US
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is a powerhouse of a phone, but it's looking tired against today's rivals, making it tough to justify the cost...
Powerful performance, 4K HDR screen, Attractive design, Great Build quality, Super-slo-mo is fun
Camera missing a few features
This is a powerful, great-looking phone and is a real performer into the bargain. It's also probably the best smartphone display there is. I only say probably because the argument over whether anyone really needs a 4K resolution display at this size is so...
