Reviews for the Sony Xperia XZ3

Sony Xperia XZ3 long-term review
Source: GSM Arena Archive.org version
There's just nothing mind-blowing about it, and we can't help but feel that Sony is intent on basically performing a magic trick with this device, drawing your attention away from the fundamentals and onto nice sounding features and perks that almost anyone can, in fact, live without. Did it work? You will be the judge.

74% Sony Xperia XZ3 camera review: Great sensors, not so great cameras
Source: Android Authority Archive.org version
Regardless, some of you will like this camera — especially fans of vibrant and saturated colors, good HDR, outstanding dynamic range, and overall good performance. If you are like me, details like a simple camera app and a dedicated shutter button will make the experience that much more enjoyable.

Sony Xperia XZ3: The flagship that wasn’t talked about enough [Review]
Source: G Style Magazine Archive.org version
The Sony Xperia XZ3 is a stand-up, good quality phone. Sony always makes great stuff. Over the time I used the Xperia XZ3, it felt premium, battery life is good and the screen was fantastic. I think it’s better than most screens on a smartphone except for maybe the Galaxy series phones which I would debate you about. Watching content on this phone or even just looking at the screen you can’t help but be amazed at just how bright and crisp that OLED really is. The camera was also really good. Some folks may say it could have been better but that’s just opinion but when I took pictures on this phone, I loved them, so you be the judge.

Instead, you’ll have to settle for using Best Buy or Amazon to pick up the device. If you don’t care about the price tag, you may want to check out this bundle on Amazon. It includes the Xperia XZ3 and the new Xperia Ear Duo wireless earbuds.

Although the Xperia XZ3 is a bit bulkier than we would have liked, the device still offers a great experience. However, the biggest turnoff may end up being the price tag, as the XZ3 comes in at $899. If you can get past that, then you may end up pleasantly surprised.

76% Review: Sony Xperia XZ3
Source: What Hi-Fi Archive.org version
The battery is a little on the low side at 3,300mAh, but it will get you through a day of moderate use. There’s software used to ensure the battery isn’t overcharged. This contributes to the battery’s overall lifespan and it cleverly recognises when you plug in at night and unplug in the morning. What you’re getting is a premium flagship handset that will no doubt make you happy once you get the hang of its quirks. It has a beautiful design that you’ll be happy to slap on the table at the pub.

70% Sony Xperia XZ3 review: A low-key entertainment winner
Source: Android Central Archive.org version
I'm a big fan of the Xperia XZ3, and have enjoyed my time with it. But like I've said with almost every other Sony phone (except the exceptional XZ2 Compact, which you should buy right now if you prefer small devices), it's too expensive, and requires a pretty substantial price drop to even be considered in the same breath as today's flagships. As many people pointed out to me already, why should you buy this when the Galaxy S9 and G7 ThinQ are available for under $700 right now, or when the OnePlus 6T is sold at a tantalizing $549?

The Xperia XZ3 is one of the most cohesive phones to come from Sony's designers and engineers. This silky Android smartphone offers a tasty slice of Pie with sophisticated updates to the user interface and camera capabilities. Here is Phone Scoop's in-depth review.

Two weeks with the Sony Xperia XZ3: Gorgeous design with a misplaced fingerprint scanner
Source: Zdnet.com Archive.org version
The Sony Xperia XZ3 is now available for purchase in the US from Amazon, Best Buy, and Focus for $899.99. Available colors include Forest Green, Black, and White Silver. While this is $100 or more less than the Galaxy Note 9 and Apple iPhone XS Max, it is still a bit higher than I would like to see with 4GB of RAM, 64GB of internal, a single rear camera, and the Sony brand.

80% Sony Xperia XZ3 review: a quality Android flagship with stunning Bravia-engineered display
Source: T3 Archive.org version
Sony delivers an Android phone in the Sony Xperia XZ3 that is a near all-round technical showcase. The new Bravia-engineered OLED screen is stunning, the internal hardware powerful, and the build quality incredibly premium. A little of the Xperia character has been lost in the Samsung Galaxy S9-style new design, though, and the camera system is beaten by Sony's own XZ2 Premium, which is an older device, as well as some rivals camera systems, too. Overall, though, it's a quality flagship that will appeal massively to audio and video enthusiasts especially.

If you are a Sony fan or on a much older handset then do definitely take a look at the XZ3, the screen is really good, one of the best out there. The other specs included are definitely 2018 flagship material too. It is just a shame it came out so soon after the XZ2 and lacks the dual camera feature on the XZ2 Premium.

The Sony Xperia XZ3’s jaw-dropping OLED screen is a huge accomplishment and sees the company leapfrog LG and Samsung with its first OLED effort. As for the rest of the phone, things are less clear-cut. A combination of a misplaced fingerprint scanner, some frustrating software and a good, but not excellent, stills camera prevents the XZ3 from being a must buy. That is unless you spend your entire mobile life watching videos.

However, the device feels dated already. Ultimately, the Xperia XZ3 does little to really stand out from the crowd. On one side you have the likes of the OnePlus 6, which delivers similar performance and an arguably more attractive design for less. On the other is the Huawei P20/P20 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S9, phones that innovate more around their cameras.

80% Sony Xperia XZ3 review: OLED screen marks a return to form
Source: Zdnet.com Archive.org version
The Xperia XZ3 is a return to form for Sony, with the OLED screen a particular highlight. Shipping with Android 9 is a definite lure, too. However, the Side Sense edge control system is flawed, dynamic vibration seems rather gimmicky, and the single-lens rear camera seems a touch old-fashioned.

Summing it all up, the Xperia XZ3 is the most beautiful Sony phone to date and not just in terms of design, but also for the outstanding OLED screen with its mesmerizing colors. The dual speakers also sound amazing, calls in the earpiece sound very clear, and overall, the XZ3 is a joy for all the senses.

82% Sony Xperia XZ3 review: One flagship too many
Source: Engadget Archive.org version
The Xperia XZ3 is a pretty, powerful flagship phone. It has all the performance you need or want, a vibrant 6-inch OLED display and a capable camera. But there's no reason to buy the XZ3 over anything else on the market right now. And for $900, it feels like there should be. Between the XZ2 and XZ2 Premium, Sony's got the high end covered already. It almost feels like its smartphone division got excited about OLED displays and decided to just throw something together. You're not going to be disappointed if you do spring for the XZ3, but that said, you probably won't be disappointed if you buy anything else in the same price range either.

One Xperia flagship had a camera that wasn't quite up to the task, another had poor battery life, yet another was too bulky - sometimes it was more than one issue that made them tough sells. It appears that with the Xperia XZ3 those times are behind Sony and there aren't any dealbreakers.

Sony Xperia XZ3 first look: Sony’s best effort yet?
Source: Trusted Reviews Archive.org version
The Xperia XZ2 missed the mark in a few ways, so it’s probably a good thing Sony has acted quickly with a successor. The Xperia XZ3 is a better-looking phone, with a much-improved display; a device that will hopefully see advancements in other areas too. Whether it will end up being the flagship phone to buy in 2018 remains to be seen.

Sony Xperia XZ3 First Impressions
Source: NDTV Gadgets Archive.org version
The Sony Xperia XZ3 seems like a mild refresh of the Xperia XZ2 in terms of specifications. While we certainly appreciate its new design and OLED display, we can't help but feel that Sony is a bit too late to the party. The Xperia XZ2 currently retails for an absurdly high price in India, which makes us wonder how Sony will price this new model when it is launched here. The company really needs to start pricing its flagship phones a bit more sensibly, or it won't be long before Sony suffers a similar fate as HTC in India.

The Sony Xperia XZ3 is an oddly great upgrade from the XZ2. It looks similar, but the form factor is much improved and the display could be one of the best ever on a smartphone thanks to the Bravia tech if our time with it so far is to be believed.
