The editors didn't like

  • Limited viewing angles
  • Graininess and blur to many images
  • Mediocre ergonomics
  • Sub-par camera performance
  • PlayStation Mobile remains woefully underdeveloped
  • The Sony Xperia Z's battery life is short
  • Its camera is slow
  • And its processor is not as peppy as those found in other flagship phones. Its glossy chassis attracts fingerprints easily
  • Boxy design makes one-hand use difficult
  • Narrow viewing angles
  • Back gets hot
  • Slower CPU than HTC One and S4
  • All glass phones make us nervous
  • No 4G LTE in US for unlocked model
  • Mediocre call quality. Dated processor. Average battery life
  • Camera's lowlight and panorama performance was a little disappointing
  • TMobile's LTE network needs to expand to more cities
  • Running Android 4.1.1 at launch
  • Instead of the most recent 4.2.2 (Sony promises an upgrade)
  • Display has poor contrast and viewing angles
  • Slow camera start
  • Imprecise scrolling of heavier web sites
  • Battery won't last more than six hours. “Stamina” mode helps
  • But making it all the way to bedtime is still a challenge. GPS is very slow. Port caps feels fragile
  • Sony's user interface customisations can be obtrusive
  • Glass case prone to fingerprints
  • Battery life weak
  • Disappointing camera
  • Mediocre callquality
  • Some intermittent lag
  • Non-removable battery with mediocre stamina
  • Poor button placement
  • Relatively easy to scratch

  • Main camera features 13 megapixels but is just good enough for snapshots
  • Display
  • High black value and low contrast
  • Viewing angle stability of the 5-inch display is less than stellar
  • Phone gets warm even during idle
  • Buttons on the right and speaker ar

  • Solid design and build quality, Great performance, Impressive camera, Water and dust resistance
  • Highly reflective TFT display, Smudge and fingerprint magnet
  • Sony has proven that it can make a superphone that is both drool-worthy and with perfect timing. Great design, awesome camera and impressive performance all packed in a slim chassis that can stand a nasty weather. It's not perfect but its pretty close to...

  • Abstract:  When the Sony Xperia Z first came out one of it's main features that let it stand out from the crowd was it's IP57 water and dust resistant certification. This meant you could wash the Sony Xperia Z, have it fall into hot soup and still work fine. A lot o...

  • Very solid build, Water & dust resistant, Strong vibration, Fast processor
  • Camera is average, Edges are too straight, might be uncomfortable to grip it for long, Why are photos stored under “Album” instead of “Gallery” or “Photos”?, Fingerprint magnet, Poor viewing angle of the screen
  • Retailing for SGD$988 the Sony Xperia Z is targeted at the high end market, if you are going to get it, I would wait say wait for a week or two for the price to drop. I know many people are comparing this and HTC One. Having played with both phones before...

  • Adequate 1920p display, Classy design, Buttery performance, Dust and water resistance, Almost Vanilla Android UI
  • Major fingerprint magnet, Below average battery life, 13megapixel camera not up to expectations
  • Like the HTC Butterfly and LG Optimus G, the Sony Xperia Z is part of the 5-inch crowd, one that's outfitted with Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro quad-core processors.To find out how the Xperia Z stands amongst its peers, we use the Quadrant test as a benchmar...
