  • Sony's Xperia Z was quite a looker
  • But its plastic body left us wanting something a bit more robust. This time around
  • Sony's upped the build quality with a solid aluminium and glass design that's reminiscent of the iPhone 4. The Z1 is still extremely slim
  • At just 8.5mm thick. It's also fairly weighty at 169g
  • Which makes it feel like a premium piece of kit
  • And puts the likes of the plastic Sa

The editors didn't like

  • Hefty chassis
  • PC software is a bit lacklustre
  • Comes with 16GB storage only
  • Slightly underwhelming camera performance
  • Also Consider
  • Sony Xperia Z
  • Samsung Galaxy S4
  • HTC One
  • Design and First Impressions
  • The Sony Xperia Z1 is visually striking
  • Sleek
  • Stylish and w
  • Too big for some
  • Not cheap
  • Speaker is average
  • Camera doesn't particularly impress
  • Disappointing battery life
  • Pricey
  • Display not best in class
  • Seems larger than it perhaps needs to be
  • Device can get very hot
  • Camera not as far ahead as we'd hoped
  • Prone to scratches
  • As a phone
  • There's not a lot to fault the Z1 on. It's a top-notch piece of kit with a premium feel that screams quality. The one caveat
  • However
  • Is its camera. Sony has armed the Z1 with a 20.7-megapixel shooter
  • Backed up by the Exmor light sensor borrowed from the company's own range of cameras. While it's certainly a fine snapper
  • It's not perfect. There are plenty of features and options av
  • A rehashed Xperia Z ?
  • 20 Mpx camera
  • But only at the cost of image noise and graininess
  • Narrow viewing angles
  • Big
  • Heavy phone with wide borders
  • Back panel is smudgy (except the white version)
  • Flimsy port covers
  • Mediocre speaker
  • Display could be brighter.
  • Camera could be better
  • Still not especially ergonomic
  • Screen could be brighter
  • Not very ergonomic in the hand
  • Camera not best in class
  • Disappointing low-light camera performance
  • Average viewing angles
  • Flimsy latches protecting ports and connections
  • Display has dodgy viewing angles
  • Chassis is slightly too large for screen
  • Runs warm
  • Battery life drains too fast
  • Perhaps too big for a smartphone
  • Speakers smothered on bottom
  • A bit bulky
  • Battery life not great

  • sehr gute Kamera, Schutz vor Staub und Wasser, Anbindung an Sony-Universum
  • groß und schwer, Akku nicht wechselbar
  • Das Xperia Z war gut, das Xperia Z1 ist noch ein Stück besser - vor allem bei der Kamera ist ein deutlicher Fortschritt zu bemerken. Schade nur, dass das Gehäuse bei Abmessungen und Gewicht deutlich zugenommen hat. Wer auf der Suche nach einem edlen Premi...
