The editors didn't like

  • 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

  • Narrow viewing angles

  • Slower CPU than HTC One and S4

  • 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

  • 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

  • High black value and low contrast
  • Viewing angle stability of the 5-inch display is less than stellar
  • Phone gets warm even during idle

  • Abstract:  Lisa Gade reviews the Sony Xperia Z Android smartphone. We look at the “import” GSM unlocked C6603 version that's quad band GSM with 3G HSPA+ (some carriers like to call this 4G but it's not LTE and you won't get LTE on AT&T) that works on AT&T in the US....

  • The Sony Xperia Z boasts a thin, attractive design that's also dust- and water-resistant. It's equipped with a big, bright screen and 4G LTE, takes great pictures, and has sharp call quality
  • 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
  • The Sony Xperia Z makes sense if a water-resistant design and excellent photos are a priority, but skip it if you demand blazingly fast performance and long battery life....

  • There's a whole lot to like about the Xperia Z; it's easily the best phone that Sony's offered… probably ever. The battery life bugs me personally no end, but those who want high power but don't have message urgency may be able to overlook that, and the e...
