The editors didn't like
Still bezel-heavy
Fingerprint scanner placement terrible
Camera not working yet
Camera not as good as rivals
Lots of duplicate apps
The Xperia XZ2 has a dated look
Despite Sony's redesign. Software features
Such as 3D face scanning
Aren't very useful. The placement of the fingerprint sensor makes it too easy to press the camera lens instead
Camera app a bit muddled
Battery life isn't the best
No 3.5mm jack
Camera still not as good as the competition
No headphone jack
Design not as desirable as rivals
Dynamic Vibration a gimmick
'Only' full HD display
Bezels are pronounced
3D Creator tool is janky
Fingerprint magnet
Apps sometimes force close
Camera app can be slow
Buggy
Features don't stand out
Design is flawed
Design is much bulkier and heavier than previous versions
Pricey

The fingerprint sesnor is too far down the back of the smartphone your finger naturally rests across the camera lens
Making it smudgy
The screen suffers from glare in bright light and both the screen and the back of the handset attract fingerprint marks
Impressive new design, Stunning 4K HDR video capture, Powerful performance
Still bezel-heavy, Fingerprint scanner placement terrible, Camera not working yet
The Sony Xperia XZ2 has many elements we've wanted to see for years: a bold new design, powerful innards and innovation inside. However, it's still got a bezel-heavy front, despite packing the new 18:9 screen, and some of the design choices are a touch qu...
Great design refresh,Excellent display,Plenty of power,MicroSD card slot,Some good video capture options (4K HDR)
Camera app a bit muddled,Battery life isn't the best,No 3.5mm jack
There are some very positive takeaways from the Sony Xperia XZ2 and there's a lot to talk about, which is a good thing. Those who repeatedly criticised the unchanging design (us included) will need to find something else to talk about, but there's a sligh...
Camera still not as good as the competition, No headphone jack
So that's the Sony Xperia XZ2 and it's possibly exciting, I guess. I like the idea of its bog-standard HD video being upscaled with HDR, and having a dedicated camera ISP could make a real difference to photos. Compared to the Samsung Galaxy S9, the Xper...

Despite the missteps and slightly bizarre dynamic vibration system, there's plenty to like with the Sony Xperia XZ2. I, for one, can't wait to try out the 4K HDR recording, which has the potential to blow every other smartphone's video capture capability...

In some ways, the Xperia XZ2 reminds me of the LG G6 from 2017, in that Sony has stepped things up by changing the design and improving the camera experience but ultimately falling short because of a short-sighted decision or two. One such choice is the p...
Wireless charging, microSD card slot, Dedicated camera shutter button
No 3.5mm headphone jack, Weird location for the fingerprint scanner, Slippery
The Sony Xperia XZ2 makes a nice smartphone with almost every feature on my smartphone wishlist including wireless charging and a microSD card slot. That said, I couldn't quite love this phone because it lacks the always-on clock display that has become a...

The camera is top notch, and right now it's the only smartphone that's capable of recording 4K HDR video. The 960FPS super-slow motion is another feature unique to Sony devices, though you'll need to time it right. You won't be disappointed by the photogr...
