The editors didn't like
Low res display
No PS4 Remote Play
The camera is truly awful
Making it a bad choice for anyone keen on photography. There's a pitiful amount of storage
And Sony's insistence on bundling apps and widgets makes the phone cluttered right out of the box
Battery could use more juice
Cameras
8 GB version only offers 1.25 GB for files
No hook for a wrist strap (unlike the Z3 and Z3 Compact)
Rubbish camera
Made of plastic rather than glass/metal
Average camera
Display not brilliant
Speaker not amazing
Max 8GB internal memory (is actually less than 4GB)

The M4 Aqua starts well with its luscious looks and affordable price, but the abysmal camera and storage woes quickly take the shine off an otherwise decent handset...

For arround £220-230, the Sony Xperia M4 Aqua is a solid all-round handset, even if it does nothing at all to blow away the competition. The water resistance is a unique feature at this price point, good news if you want a phone for the beach or bath, but...

Well-built case that is also stylish, Water-resistant and dust proof, Mostly excellent screen, Decent performance
Doesn't ship with the latest version of Android Lollipop, Camera could be better, Poor stock keyboard
With the exception of the M4's screen, Sony has created a phone that is, by all accounts, an excellent entry into the mid-range market. As with any device in this price range, there are compromises. But, for the most part, the company has packed in featur...
Unbelievable battery life, Great size, Incredibly bright screen, Decent Camera
8GB of internal storage – not quite enough, these days, Bundled apps, Slow Camera
The Sony Xperia M4 Aqua is a great device with many appealing aspects, overall I greatly enjoyed my time with the device despite it not being a “flagship”. It is devices such as the M4 that will push the industry to reconsider what is needed to make a gre...

Waterproof!, Great battery life, Decent price for a phone of this calibre
Only 2GB of usable storage, which is just not enough, Camera is average only, Some performance hiccups during review tests
The price is right, and waterproofing is excellent, so there is a good reason to take a look at the M4 Aqua. Sony offers its best styling and a premium build to this mid-range handset, too, but lacking storage and performance speed bumps may aggravate hea...

Abstract: Sony may have a winner with its new M4 Aqua – with a 5” IPS screen, IP65/68 rating, a decent camera, and a two-day battery life.Initially it is only available from Optus on a $0 upfront and $40 MyPlan Plus over 24 months - minimum $960 but that includes 5...
Easy to hold; Upgradeable storage; Water-resistant body with open microUSB (cool!); Battery could last up to two days if need be, though one day is more likely;
Piddling 8GB storage is one of the lowest amounts we've seen in ages; Performance can be a little slow; Camera is of a decent megapixel amount, but isn't the best quality, nor particularly fast;
Sony's take on the mid-range gets some things right offering that friendly distinctive Sony design for a better price tag, but lets it down in storage and with a camera that just doesn't feel up to Sony's regular quality.If the price were to drop a little...
". it shoots itself in the foot by letting preinstalled apps gobble up almost all of its limited storage space and the camera, while well-specced, is pretty awful."...
