Great twoday battery life, Screen is sharp and colourful, Impressively slim and lightweight, Solid everyday performance
Camera is average, Plastic port flaps are kinda annoying, Sony apps add little to the package
As we said above, the Xperia Z3 is a solid all-rounder, a great everyday phone pumped up by great battery life and brought down by an average camera experience. It may not compare well on paper with the new Samsung Galaxy S6 or LG G4, by in all ways the Z...
Abstract: And there's still hardened glass covering both the front and back, which makes for a phone that feels good in the hand — and not too slippery. Those rounded edges have also resulted in better-fitting sealed port covers that seem more secure than ever — an...

That battery life, though. Without Stamina mode, it easily lasts a day. With it, it could easily last two, Close to stock experience, with enough tweaks to make it more enjoyable, Effortless. Doesn't take long to set up and customise, Looks great. It's sl
That waterproof isn't infallible. I have drowned a Z3. Fortunately, it was replaced immediately at no cost, Lack of Qi charging is an annoyance for a waterproof phone, so it's either fiddly port covers, or magnetic charging docks, Some features are annoyi
I've been using the Xperia Z3 for the last month now, which is somewhat unusual for an Ausdroid review; we have this luxury because I bought the device myself. This isn't to say that Sony didn't offer us a review device; they surely did, but I knew I want...

Abstract: Sony's reimagining of its premium phone lines through the Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact bring a renewed sense of style and some top-notch performance as well, although the cameras could be better.To be honest, I wasn't that thrilled with the Sony Xperia...
Lovely build and finish that fits nicely in the hands; Water and dust resistance at IP68 certification; Unlike the Z3 Compact, the sides actually fit in well, boosting that water resistance; Great performance; Solid 4G speeds with Category 4 connectivity
Very, very slippery -- it fell off our desks several times! Can get a little hot; No infrared controller;
In terms of all-round performance and feature packing, Sony's Xperia Z3 is a slam dunk as far as smartphones go, packing in plenty of camera, multimedia, and gaming smarts in something still recognisable as a phone.There is just so much here to love, from...
The Xperia Z3 is the best smartphone Sony has ever made and has plenty of appeal for any Android owner in the market for an upgrade. Though it took a few refinements, Sony's prowess in industrial design, display technology, imaging sensors, audio, video ...
Slick, but ergonomic design, Amazing battery life, PlayStation 4 Remote Play is the definition of killer app,
Camera prone to overheating, Very similar to the Xperia Z2,
At times, the Sony Xperia Z3 feels just another high-end Android phone; it follows the template to a tee: 5-inch plus screen, quad-core processor around the 2Ghz mark, 2 to 3GB of RAM, and 16GB of expandable storage with an $800ish price tag. But where o...

The UI can use updating -- all the icons just look way too big. While it may have a 20.7-megapixel camera, autofocus can be a little off, but nothing a quick tap on the screen can't fix
The Sony Xperia Z3 is Sony's most formidable to date with a formidable display and promising features that easily give Android competition from HTC, LG and Samsung a run for their money....
