Bold look, smarter camera than last year, slowmotion video capture can be fun
Photo quality, 4K screen is a limited realworld benefit, bulkier than its Android rivals, unique features wanes rather quickly
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is a good phone. It's powerful, well-made and has a high-end, impressive look that is often the kernel inside our desire to have a £650 phone when a £200 one would probably do the job just as well. There's little to disli...
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, br...
Excellent screen, unique video camera capabilities, extremely powerful
Expensive, stills camera is good, not excellent
When the XZ Premium was announced, I thought: 'oh no, Sony's gone and done it again. Big £649 price tag, unnecessarily high-resolution screen, pointless world-first accolades just to stand out, same design we've seen before… I don't think this can get the...
Great 4K display with HDR technology, good battery life, super slow-motion feature is excellent, good overall software experience, waterproofing, cheaper than some other flagships
Design hasn't moved on much, camera isn't as good as competition, display doesn't manage well in super bright conditions, occasional lag in performance
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is every bit the flagship smartphone in terms of spec, but it doesn't bring the same wow factor as the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S8 or LG G6.On the upside, the XZ Premium delivers a fantastic display that's perfect for enterta...

4K display is stunning, Great camera, Solid battery life
Design isn't the most premium, Fiddly SIM tray, Lack of 4K content lessens screen's impact
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is a handset jam-packed full of features, and from its impressive 4K display and huge power under the hood to an excellent camera and solid battery life it has all the core ingredients of a top smartphone.The price is high, and...

Every time we pick up a new Sony phone it practically oozes potential. This is a brand that's got so many great departments working on the individual components that make up a phone, and yet can't seem to put something together which can dethrone the iPho...
Massive horizontal bezels, Expensive, Camera poor in low light
The Xperia XZ Premium is a glorious return to the flagship segment. While the headline grabbing features, such as the super slow motion camera, have, let's say, limited usefulness, the phone behind them is very competent. It's fast, it has an amazing scre...
Sony Xperia XZ Premium – Battery Life and Sound Sony promises ‘all-day battery life' from the XZ Premium and, thankfully, that seems to be the case from the 3230mAh battery. I'm a pretty compulsive user of social media, so that entails constantly refreshi...

Amazing screen, Great video camera, Eyecatching design
Average battery, Fingerprint magnet, Likely expensive
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium has the sharpest screen we've seen on a smartphone and a great camera. It's arguably overkill in some ways but undeniably great...
