Review: Best of Sony and Android - Took the jump from Apple to Sony and I'm glad I did. Came from an iPhone xs and this new Xperia just does everything much better. Camera is great, especially the 24mm. There's very little noise in the images and video quality is very very good. The camera works like the Sony Alpha systems and you can control pretty much every setting. Only the 120mm setting gets a bit fuzzy in quality. You can shoot in raw and jpeg and images are very accurate and not oversaturated or overly sharp but just right. 4k 120hz screen is superp and brighter than my iPhone and battery life is good also. there are some good creative settings for both display and speakers, which sound very good for a phone. You will quickly get used to Android and I feel there are more settings to play with than in iOS. You can pretty much change everything in settings and generally you can tweak everything a bit more to your liking than in iOS. Offer came with the headphones which makes it a good deal. They are very good and battery last forever! Without them the price is in line with Apple and Samsung's most expensive phones. If you're tired of Samsung's bloatware get this phone instead it's mainly got the things you want and is free of the nonsense apps. Only dislike is it doesn't come with a charger. Seems normal these days with both Apple and Samsung.

### ⭐ Faulty. Had to return.
*by E***N on 2 October 2022*

Bought this to replace 4yr old Xperia XZ3 which was a great phone until the camera failed. I didn't like the fingerprint sensor on the side. My XZ3 was on reverse and naturally landed on my finger when I held it. Also the 21:9 aspect ratio of the screen is a bit of a stretch, pardon the pun. Not many apps use that layout. Not an issue because after 4 hours of use, 1. 5 of which was spent updating to latest software, the screen froze. The phone was completely unusable and had to go back. I subsequently ordered a different brand. Shame because I've had 5 Xperia phones over the last decade.
