Rememeber the last time you used one of those basic, point-and-shoot cameras? It must have been a while if you own a phone with a good camera on it. That's the case for millions of folks and it comes as no surprise – most modern high-end smartphones take...
Sony vs Apple is a classic battle. Two of the top, premium tech manufacturers with hardcore fans - guaranteed to be annoyed by this comparison. But it's an important comparison. It is rare that both Apple and Sony update their flagship smartphones at the...
The Xperia Z3, though, marks a big comeback for Sony in the US market. Sure, T-Mobile got the Z1s earlier this year, but it was months behind the original Z1's IFA launch back in 2013. By the time the Z1s was available on T-Mobile, the Z2 had been announc...
Sony nailed it. Twice.We call it battery life because it is vital.Without it, e-readers wouldn't be so popular, electric cars wouldn't threaten gas guzzlers, and smartphones would never have taken over as the primary computing device in people's lives. Ba...
The Xperia Z3v%displayPrice% at %seller% is an excellent smartphone, but Sony had to ditch an already-refreshed design to deliver a unique device on Verizon. The resulting phone looks more like the older Z2, while adding features like Qi wireless cha...
It seems like just yesterday I was sitting at my desk, new phone in hand, typing out my review of the Xperia Z2. It was Sony's flagship that many of us thought would take the company through to the end of 2014, yet here I am, not even six months later, re...
The Sony Xperia Z3 was announced in September 2014 as the follow-up to the Z2. It features a 20.7 million pixel 1/2.3 inch EXMOR RS sensor - which is the same size (both in terms of physical size and pixel count) as many compact cameras. While the Z2 had...
When we reviewed Verizon's version of the Sony Xperia Z3, which the carrier calls the Z3v, we were impressed with its vivid display, durable design and sharp camera. T-Mobile doesn't tack any extra letters onto the Xperia Z3's name, but it adds something...
TIREDGlass back makes it a fingerprint magnet—and a slippery one at that. I dropped and shattered mine. Finicky camera produces inconsistent photos. Stability issues aplenty. Mystifying software choices, including pointless redesigns of great stock Androi...
The Xperia Z3 is best approached from a Sony-centric way of thinking. First and foremost, it is one of the finest phones ever made by Sony. The Z3 is a powerful device in its own right, but it is also just a cog in the larger Sony ecosystem. If you like...
As a Guy Who Reviews Tons of Android Devices (my official job title), I see a lot of forgettable phones. Phones that are fine but unremarkable -- that get the job done but fail to stand out or make any sort of meaningful lasting impression.I've written ab...
Sony's mobile devices are easy to overlook, at least in the U.S. It's no secret the company has found it difficult to compete against mounting competition, and even by its own admission, it isn't doing so hot in the mobile space, nor does it expect to in...
The best part about picking out a new Android phone is the huge level of choice and diversity the platform provides: With so many different manufacturers creating devices, there's something available for practically every purpose and preference imaginable...
Marketed with “Demand Great” by Sony, the XPERIA Z3 is a high-end phone that has a lot of attributes that are attractive: a thin metal and glass design, an IP65/68 ruggedness rating (water and dustproof), along with Sony's best camera sensor available for...
Gaining even more steam just in time for its impending release stateside, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is no doubt going to be a major force to be reckoned with when it's finally unleashed. Many prized smartphones stand in its way, but as we've seen thus far, i...
Despite creating beautiful devices, Sony hasn't seen the growth in mobile that it has hoped for, which has led the Japanese giant to announce its plans to scale back its mobile efforts going forward . There are numerous possible reasons why Sony isn't in...
We've said it before, and we'll say it again. The Sony Xperia Z3 has arguably the most underrated designs around! Being good looking is one thing, but the designers over at Sony's camp delivered an impressive offering in the Xperia Z3 – one that adds a h...
I bought a Sony Xperia Z2 from Handtec back in May and thought it was the phone for me. While it was great, the rumors of a Z3 kept me from keeping it. Now that I have spent a week with the new T-Mobile Sony Xperia Z3, I am extremely pleased I waited for...
It's fair to say the Xperia Z3 is only a minor upgrade to the only recently released Z2. In terms of camera specification both are very similar, featuring a 20.7Mp rear camera, together with a 2.2Mp front camera and 1080p video capture for those all-impor...
“The Sony Xperia Z3's primary snapper is a delight in more ways than one”Going by the much-hyped megapixel wars, Sony upped the ante with the 20-meg shooter in its Xperia Z1 a while ago. Two flagships later, it's still the king in this aspect, but we all...

Xperia Z3 is the newest smartphone from Sony and I was quite surprised it is released just 6 months after its predecessor, the Sony Xperia Z2, announced at WWDC 2014. Can the Xperia phone be improved in such a short period of time? Read on for my insight...
