Great looking hardware. Snappy processor and plenty of RAM make the Z3 a speed demon. Shoots 4K video. Waterproof up to 5 feet
Glass 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 Android app
Abstract: 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 has produced a decent camera in the new Z3, with some notable limitations. It's not the best camera on the smartphone market, but its overall performance is pretty good. If you don't want to invest in a second standalone camera, the Sony Xperia Z3 i...

Awesome battery life without sacrificing highend performance. Refined design is comfortable, stylish and waterproof. Fantastic display that's both crisp and vibrant. Familiar camera hardware is still pretty decent.
Frustrating app prevents the camera from reaching its true potential. Software feels bland and outdated compared to the competition.
The Z3 might not be a significant change-up of Sony's flagship Xperia formula, but the combination of a bunch of minor tweaks and upgrades has made this handset one of the best on the market. I'll start with the standout feature of this handset: its batt...
Slim, refined design. Dust- and water-resistant. Excellent camera. Long battery life. PS4 game streaming.
Wi-Fi could be faster. Sony and T-Mobile bloat
The slender, long-lasting Sony Xperia Z3 appears iterative, but delivers one of the most roundly excellent Android experiences on T-Mobile and features exclusive PlayStation 4 game streaming capability....

Sony has a limited presence in the US with most of its devices being sold either overseas or at the US Sony Store as unlocked models for AT&T and T-Mobile customers. Verizon just recently launched the Sony Xperia Z3v, which is a variation of the Z3 I boug...
Display: While it still has some of the odd Sony white cast at certain angles, the Z3's 1080p LCD is extremely bright with excellent contrast for something that isn't an AMOLED. It also has superb white balance, making the Note 4's QHD SAMOLED look dingy
Camera: Did you like the camera on the Xperia Z1 and Z2? Great! It's back. It's still not amazing. This is somewhat frustrating considering what great consumer mirrorless cameras Sony is making. There are just so many issues here, so read the full camera
The Xperia Z3 is one of the best Android phones you can currently buy. It's quite nice looking (even if the glass back is kind of a miss for me), performs well, and has battery life that puts it a cut above rivals like the One M8, Galaxy S5, and G3.That s...

beautifully built, premium feeling, exceptional performance, excellent camera, water and dust proof construction, great battery life
software is inconsistent at times, notifications are rather low in volume, headphone volume could be higher
So, should you buy it? It's a small improvement over the Z2, which was a small improvement over the Z1.We'll say this: if you currently own a Z2, you might want to wait for the Z4, which should land early next year. If you are looking to upgrade your curr...
Further refined aesthetics, Great display experience, Great sound experience, Sturdy, IP certified design, Powerful camera, Minimalistic but very useful Xperia UI
Upgrade might not be substantial for veteran users, Performance package is a step behind current competition, Best camera features are disjointed
