Not really satisfactory from a phone that costs over £500. Thankfully I've had no such issues with my Z2.This phone is very quick. With a top spec processer and 3gb of ram it should be. If that doesn't mean anything to you, don't worry. All you need to know is that it will run all your apps without stuttering or stalling at all whilst playing your music etc.The display is big and beautiful. Whether or not you want a phone this large is a personal choice, but if you make the leap from, say, an iphone, you will of course initally find it a little cumbersome. However, after a few days of use it feels comfortable in my hand and the upside is its generous screen which is great for watching movies and tv, using the net and social media etc. The colours really pop. You can easily throw whatever is on your Z2's screen onto your tv with screen mirroring (provided it has the capability) and I'm really impressed with the quality of the resulting image.There's a decent front front screen protector in the box, which I managed to apply without any air bubbles. It's got a matt finish so minimises glare. You'll need to buy a case or rear protector separately though.The walkman app is great. It should be- Sony invented the walkman. The sound quality via the headphone socket is very good. There is a decent graphic equaliser on board. The phone comes with noise cancelling headphones in the box which I'm also impressed with- the bass is impressive, they're comfortable and the noise cancelling works very well, saving you the necessity of increasing the volume to compensate for intrusive background noise and saving your ears from from future hearing loss (I hope)... Also the phone paired with my Bluetooth headphones quickly and the signal is impeccable. My only gripe is that I think the headphone socket should be on the bottom of the phone, not the top, but its a pretty minor quibble and a subjective one at that. The internal stereo speakers are pretty good but definitely not as good as the htc one M8 at higher volume.I'm not a camera buff but other reviews of the phone's photographic capabilities are pretty positive. It's certainly pretty zippy and I like the dedicated shutter button which is in exactly the right position.Many features are customisable and as I'm using my phone more I'm changing things to suit me. The Smartconnect feature that allows you to decide in advance how your phone responds to key events (e.g. automatically playing from the walkman as soon as you insert headphones) is not just a gimmick, it's genuinely useful. In fact I think that's a key strength of the Z2- it seems well thought out so that everything works well for you, rather than trying to dazzle you with gimmicky stuff that you'll never really use.It's also worth mentioning that you can add a 128gb micro sd card to the 16gb of internal storage. That's a lot of memory and a very good reason to choose this phone above previous models or, say, an iphone which will not allow you to expand the internal memory. I store all my music and other media on the card and haven't suffered any delays or fails getting access as yet.Battery life seems very good so far, although I imagine it will deteriorate over time and it's worth noting that you can't open up this phone and change the battery- unlike the Samsung S5.One of the best features of the Z2 is the wireless charging capability. You'll need to invest in a separate dock to take advantage of this which I think is a bit of a cheek (the official Sony dock is over £20 at the moment) but it saves you having to open up the protective cover for the usb slot, plugging in a lead etc- just pop it in, charge, grab and go. Really handy and worth the extra few pounds in my opinion.I love the minimal, slim design and the phone feels very sleek and premium despite its size, unlike the plasticky Samsung S series, the exterior being made entirely from aluminium and glass. Design is a personal choice though and you'll have your own opinion. I would definitely recommend visiting a high street store for a hands on comparison before choosing. I also love the design of the htc one M8 which is perhaps more distinctive. However the M8 is not waterproof unlike the Z2 (and S5, though not to the same degree) so bear that in mind if you're clumsy and prone to spilling drinks and dropping your phone. Again I think this is a genuinely useful innovation rather than a gimmick if you are a bit of a klutz like me.Overall I would recommend the Z2 if you want a truly premium Android phone that does everything and just works very well, with a fantastic display and lots of useful tech on board. If you're really into your music then I would recommend it even more highly. If you find it a touch too large then try a Z1 compact or wait a few weeks/months for the Z2 compact to be released."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"4.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"R***D"},"datePublished":"Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 May 2014","name":"4.0 out of 5 stars\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Happy initially with my Xperia Z2 - though flap covering SIM wouldn't stay closed... Eventually \"died\" and returned to.Amazon\n \n","reviewBody":"Took delivery on 10 May and gave 5 stars initially, but after 3m of use reducing to 4 stars.The lost star is because the flap covering SIM and micro USB socket won't stay shut, mean the waterproof feature can't be trusted.I rarely open the flap as have a cradle charger, but despite this the problem has arisen. I imagine that it will not be until a future model that the apparent design fault will be fixed.That said, other than this flaw I love the phone, but the flaw is disappointing.In case you experience call distortion : I experienced an important problem with the phone. When I made calls, my voice was badly distorted when the other person was trying to listen. It got a lot better if I switched to speaker phone, but still not very good. At first I thought problem must be at the other end, but ltested on several calls to different phones and left voicemails that I have listened to and definitely a major problem. Other than that I found the phone is great, so got replacement from Amazon. I found the problem with my voice being distorted happened again though, with the new phone. I therefore tried a different sim, reverting back to a Vodafone sim from the giffgaff (O2 network) I had moved to. This solved the problem, so looks like some kind of compatibility issue between the giffgaff sim and the Sony z2. The giffgaff sim doesn't cause any problems in my old Galaxy S3... If you experience thisvtypebof problem, it is worth trying a new Sim before returning the phone.Overall review:Phone meets my expectations and a bit of a step up from my old Galaxy S3.Screen is great, with good viewing angles. Keyboard seems easier to use, though spell correction function does not seem to spot two words accidentally typed together without a space.Seems very responsive and also quick to get to grips with.Physical quality of the phone is way better than my old S3 (except for flap issue mentioned above). I was a bit nervous of how ergonomic it would be, but I needn't have been. The tweaks done to shape and dimensions from the Z1 have done the trick, and in comparison it is much better to hold.Put front screen protector on from 3rd party, as only one came in box and I wasn't lucky enough to get application right first time.I also get a protector for the back to help protect the glass. Pleased I did!The sound from the front facing speakers is pretty reasonable but not quite as good as I had hoped. Maybe I was expecting too much, but will be fine for audio to videos.On the charging front, I bought a cheap third party magnetic charging dock for under £9 and it works great. Would recommend one so no need to open the waterproof flap to charge every day - especially given the flaps are the only weak point I have found.The battery life seems good. For example, took phone off charge 18 hrs ago, had bluetooth and wifi on all day, made a couple short calls, being using email and about an hour on the Internet, followed by watching 2hr film stored on my micro sd and there's still 25% of battery left. Pretty good and better than previous phones...]Overall, it seems to be a great phone, and pleased I waited for it. I popped my old 64gb Micro sd card in, but pondering over whether to buy and try the new 128gb SanDisk card... Will see.Couple of extra points: I saw a review just after mine that said you can't write to a micro sd card. In setup there is an option to transfer data from internal memory to a micro sd card you have inserted. Also, you can switch to saving all photos and video footage taken to the micro sd. When it comes to music and films, I usually copy to a micro sd card inserted to my laptop via adapter, so unlikely to check if possible to copy across by USB lead. Consequently, I don't really understand the problem raised by the person leaving one star earlier today. One warning though - when I tried the function to transfer files from the phone to micro SD , the function managed to corrupt many existing photos on the micro SD, so I suggest this function is avoided.So far really like the function where you can choose to blur backgrounds and keep the main subject in focus. It works surprisingly well. Photos in bright light are great, though dimly lit photos aren't as good as expected. Videos are very good, including 4k ones, though when recording 4k the phone heats up a little, but not a problem.P.S. As I bought this phone because it was unlocked and sim free I have now found which sim only deal I prefer. I went for a giffgaff monthly deal that as at May 2014 cost £12pm for unlimited data, 250mins, and unlimited texts. It works on O2's 3G network and so far I am very pleased with it. Just mentioning in case, like me, you're looking for a decent Sim only deal. Update: see the call problem I have had with the giffgaff sim... Looks like I will have to give up with it and try a different provider. I ended up getting a Sim only 4g deal with unlimited calls and texts and 5gb of data and Spotify premium for £15pm. Going well...FINAL UPDATE: AFTER OWNING THE Z2 AND LIKING IT, IT INEXPLICABLY \"DIED\" ON ME.NO SIGN OF LIFE OR LIGHTS FROM IT WHATSOEVER. I used Amazon instant chat to arrange immediate return for a full refund. Now bought the Z3."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"1.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"M***C"},"datePublished":"Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 June 2023","name":"1.0 out of 5 stars\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Sony Xperia Z2\n \n","reviewBody":"This phone is not compatible with apps I need to download.Battery rubbish for being a new phone, I am having to charge it up a lot and it takes ages to re-charge.Fiddly too, charging it up having to take off plastic strip at the side to get into put charger in.I would not recommend this phone if you want to download the latest apps also for the fact it constantly needs charged up."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"3.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"J***G"},"datePublished":"Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 July 2014","name":"3.0 out of 5 stars\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n Awesome but.......\n \n","reviewBody":"My first impressions of this phone was quite simply blown away, so why only 3 stars? Well, this phone has the same issues that I found the Z1 had, and that it is very power hungry. With the stamina mode on and if you only use it now and again, it can last up to a week, but if you used it intensely, it won`t last a day without a top up charge. Other top of the line smart phones don`t have this issue, so I don`t understand why this is so power hungry. It`s a shame as it is such a beatiful phone in design and build quality, and I will not buy another untill Sony fix this issue. I think I will get a Galaxy S5 instead, my friends have one and use them intensely and no battery issues."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"3.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"J***E"},"datePublished":"Reviewed in France on 13 February 2022","name":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n telephone\n \n \n","reviewBody":"Trop fragile pour ma part"}],"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":3.2,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":5}},{"@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Is the sim unlocked?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Having bought a Sim free Xperia Z2 myself, I can assure you that Sim free means, you have a choice of any provider and choice of the tariff you want.
