SonyXperia XZ Premium 64 GB 5.5-Inch UK SIM-Free Smartphone - Black

What an amazing phone and speaker. I bought the bundle and got it primed for next day, I'd already had an XZ before but it was stolen on holiday so I thought why not upgrade ;)The phone is hands down the best phone I've ever owned, I used to be on iPhone from the 4S to the 5S (4years)and decided to leave early this year. Best decision I've made. The phone is so fast, the UI is brilliant and heavily customisable, the camera is amazing quality like having a DSLR in your pocket, features for the phone and the specs sold me completely with the original XZ and this has raised the bar for me entirely.The physical design is so sleek and beautiful, definitely going to need a case because one scratch on it and it'd be the equivalent of someone smacking your child :') 4k HDR display is crisper than a sip of spring river water. Vibrant display brings the best out of ever photo and video you take or watch, also the dual speakers is genius! Watch a movie on this phone and you'll be completely immersed.Battery life is very impressive, it can take up to 3 hours to charge from 0%-100% BUT the battery lasts a fairly decent amount of time, I've used 30% of my battery in the last 12 hours which I'm really happy with, in the past my iPhone wouldn't last less than half a day until it was at 15% and I need of charging; some days with a lot of use I'd sometimes charge it twice a day which is insane.The speaker is very light compared to most portable speakers I've tried, the sound quality is crisp and the extra bass does a decent job of banging out a song along with the light show it puts on is pretty damn cool!The price is unbelievable! £649 for basically £780 worth of gear is a sure bet that you won't lose on!*Additional*(I've been testing the battery since I've had it for the past few weeks, the battery is twice the mAH of the iPhone 6 battery and with background refreshing apps and stamina mode enable I can get about 2 days out of it while using it a few times an hour. The speed charging plug that comes with the phone charges at around 3% per minute so you do the math. The charging from a power bank is considerably slower than from a mains plug but still reasonable. If you're into battery saving hacks you could make the phones batter easily last a day and a half minimum ever listening to music all day. Really impressed with the battery life. Hope all of this helps!Thinking of switching from Apple?DO IT! Get the Xperia XZ/XZ Premium, you won't be disappointed at all!

One of the best smart phones of this era. Few points to note:1) Phone looks too gorgeous. Just amazing and classy. Most people on Youtube complaiend about bezeles, but they are great. They yield a symmetric pleasure.2) Speakers are wonderful and clear. They are not LOUD, but they are elegent and CLEAR.3) Of course the display's beauty can not be put in words. YES you do observe a drastic difference between quad HD or Full HD, even on a mobile screen -- Why else would technology be pushed? And it is amazing -- specially, for now, the 4k youtube videos.4) Finger print scanner is at right place and as you can record multiple fingers, it's ease of access is high even if one hand is in use5) The stamina mode for the battery is pretty good. Though you will find the difference of low performance when in stamina mode -- I mean low in relative to the ultra pleasure you get from its fastness.6) The 3D creator is very fun. Once you invove in it, you can create loads of fun stickers, Augmented realities and much more. Just note that for more clarity, you need more LIGHT.7) 960fps slow mo camera is a beast in itself. Of course, even for this you need more light (unless you are shooting lighters/fire where dark BG is recomended) and the art of timing, if mastered, one will have the pleasure of multiple slow mo's in a single video.8) Camera's auto mode is very intelligent, in the sense that, it can detect the object and change the mode -- for papers, it showed "document mode", for food - "gourmet", for closeups - "macro", for moving objects, it can track the motion and much more. BUt again, you need more light for its beauty to be competeing and crossing the other phones. In low light, its performance is OK, but not great. But I don;t have any complaint as such, for, most of the mobiles are just 10% better to this in low light and this phone gives much more in return.9) One need to be careful with sim and memory card tray -- its little delicate.10) When you busy screen protectors - tempered glass, be careful of teh edges. Unless the glass is edged, its useless to buy, as it would not stick properly.Thats all I could think of. If any questions, let me know -- I will try to answer. Happy Buy!!

I bought this as a gift but the ring tone/alert/alarm sounds are very soft. If you put it in your pocket, it is virtually impossible to hear it!! There is an option from Sony to send the phone back to them to fix the sound but I am not prepared to do this as this is a brand new phone, I should not have to go through all this and expect it to work adequately.Worst Sony model I ever bought - really do hope they improve in their next model!!.

Exactly as expected.

😠Great little phone, I smashed the screen on my original xz premium and needed a quick fix so at £149 was a great solution however being an older model I've found it wont support certain app updates one of them being ebay😠, so if buying beware.
