Sony Xperia XZ2 review

An Android comeback story with a sort of happy ending

Much-improved design ; 4K HDR video ; Powerful performance

Camera still not as good as the competition ; No headphone jack

Sony’s best handset yet offers plenty, but despite big strides forward, its competitors have still made bigger

Sony Xperia XZ2 Review: Fresh look, brilliant camera

Sony's Xperia XZ2 flagship phone is its first premium handset of 2018, sporting a slick new design that really shakes things up. This handset surprises on many levels, but is it a worthy successor to last year's XZ1? Here's our full Xperia XZ2 review...

Fantastic camera ; Slick media machine ; Super-smooth performance

No facial recognition ; Dynamic Vibration kind of pointless

Sony’s first flagship phone of 2018 serves up a fresh new design as well as refining the overall user experience. This shiny beast doesn’t care if it’s thicker or heavier than other premium blowers. Instead it concentrates on serving up a slick media...

Sony Xperia XZ2

Another in a long line of solid phones from Sony, the Xperia XZ2 is only a handful of changes away from being the best value for money flagship so far this year.

Top of the line specifications; Cleaner UI; Superb all-round camera

Slightly slippery back cover; Odd fingerprint sensor placement

The previous XZ and X devices have failed to impress somewhat, often overpriced and under specced compared to competitor offerings. This is not the case with the Sony Xperia XZ2, boasting some of the best specifications currently available on the...
