The Sony Xperia XZ may be the brand's fourth flagship in the last two years, but it's been a whole year since it released the Xperia Z5 to critical acclaim at IFA 2015.In the meantime Sony has released the Xperia X, which we believed to be its latest fla...
Bottom line The Xperia XZ doesn't represent a revolutionary step from Sony. Rather it's a repackaging of the highlights we've seen in previous Xperia handsets, with a refined design and a few more tweaks to keep up with the competition.It would have been nice to see...

Being a former Sony Xperia Z3 owner, one thing I am proud to say that Sony does really well is its LCD display screens. Dating back to the older Z-Series until the current X-Series, Sony always outdo themselves and the Xperia XZ is no exception. Although...

Bottom line The Xperia XZ is easily the best phone Sony has put out in a while, but the bar wasn't set particularly high so perhaps that's a bit unfair. Sticking to that theme we were quietly impressed with the Xperia's efforts, and it managed to beat the Galaxy in a...

These are Sony's latest smartphones, one for those who prefer a larger handset, one for smaller mitts. The Xperia XZ has a 5.2in display, the X Compact a 4.6in one. And at a time when phones are bigger than ever, it's refreshing to see a company like Sony...

Bottom line It's tough making a flagship phone stand out from rivals these days. Samsung chose a radically different design for its edge and Note phones, Apple chose two cameras for greater photographic versatility. Here, Sony has gone a little way to addressing both...

Sony is about to release its newest smartphone from the Xperia series: the Xperia XZ1. Coming just a year after the Xperia XZ (released last September), the XZ1 is set to be a better and stronger version of the previous model. We've already reviewed the X...
Bottom line Sony's Xperia XZ1 is closer to the XZ Premium than it is to the XZ. It offers a lot more power and will provide better performance, but it is also a lot more expensive than the XZ's current price. If you're looking to buy a new phone, we'd recommend payin...

Boasting 5-axis image stabilization along with a 23-megapixel rear camera capable of capturing 4K video, Sony’s $699 Xperia XZ clearly hopes to unseat the Galaxy S7 Edge and the iPhone 7 Plus as the camera phone champ. However, while Sony’s 5.2-inch phone...

Bottom line The Sony Xperia XZ is a handsome choice that's comfortable to hold, and we like the vibrant screen and impressive 10-plus hour battery life. Given the phone’s $699 price tag, though, it’s hard to recommend the XZ over either Samsung’s Galaxy S7 ($669) or...

Bottom line As I mentioned, the Xperia XZ is a bit of a tough sell at $699. Sure it is flagship material, but it is also missing a great number of things that make other $699 smartphones worth the price. One is the display. A 1080p display is great for 5.2-inches, bu...
