While the Xperia M2 looks great and it's build quality is topnotch
There's plenty missing from its more expensive sibling that we wish made the cut. For starters
You won't find the same dust and waterproof skills that the Xperia Z2 boasts
The Sony Xperia M2 certainly looks like a premium smartphone, but carries a surprisingly mid-range price tag. With a more impressive camera and more storage, we'd be really impressed with the Xperia M2 for that price, but we think you can get more for you...
Abstract: Although Sony's new Xperia Z2 smartphone took the limelight at Mobile World Congress 2014 , the company also announced two other major devices – the Xperia Z2 Tablet and the mid-range Sony Xperia M2. Here we take a look at the Xperia M2 in more detail.The...
Abstract: Sony has announced the Xperia M2 smartphone, which it is claiming has the "world's best smartphone technology in its class". It steals the design from the Xperia Z family, but ditches the waterproofing feature, so be careful not to confuse this device wit...
Large screen, Slick-looking design, Has 4G, Decent battery life
Low-res screen for size, Overzealous photo sharpening, So-so call and speaker quality
The Sony Xperia M2 screen is disappointing but the software, the design and the camera are all decent for the price, making it a top 4G buy if you're willing to shop around.Next, see our best cheap phones or try our Android 4.4 tips and tricks...
Expensive compared to Moto G, Plastic, hollow, sounding chassis
The Sony Xperia M2 is the follow up to the popular mid-range handset that saw the company trying a number of different suffixes and hoping one stuck for those that don't want to spend a lot of money. When you pick up the Xperia M2, you're instantly struck...

Now loves the water, Solid performance, Feature-packed camera
Screen still not as sharp as rivals
With water resistance and Android KitKat on board, plus no downsides compared with the original phone, there's no reason to pick up the plain ol' vanilla Xperia M2 any more. If you want a mid-range mobile with a solid camera and a good-sized screen, the X...

The Sony Xperia M2 has a sleek, attractive design, enough power for your day to day tasks and doesn't cost the earth
It's got a disappointingly low resolution display and arrives with the old and outdated Android Jelly Bean on board
Although the Sony Xperia M2 looks pretty slick, it's let down by its low resolution display and its old version of Android, which makes even its affordable price way too high. For much less money, you could snap up the Moto G or spend a little more and p...
Bright display, Quad-Core CPU, Storage can be increased, LTE Cat. 4, Good frequency coverage, NFC, Good headset, Very good battery life
No HD display, High black value, No App2SD support, Weak main camera
The Sony Xperia M2 is a good middle-class smartphone, which scores in terms of communication. Despite the decidedly average speech quality the device supports all the latest data standards including LTE Cat. 4. The frequency coverage is not meager either...
Reasonable performance, Supports 3G on both SIM slots, complete with Smart Dual capabilities, Useful software and Sony's Small apps, Excellent battery life
Sony's OmniBalance design is now getting a tad boring, Washed out screen, Scratchprone back, No exciting feature
Considering that the Xperia M2 Dual doesn't really have any killer features to boast of, and loses out on the specs race considering its pricing, it could be tough to pass a verdict. And from what we've seen, it does come across as a mixed bag, with its s...
