Waterproof and dust-resistant, Camera works well in low light, Smooth software & good performance
Screen has poor viewing angles, Questionable ergonomics, Back glass scratches too easily
The Sony Xperia Z1 boasts an attractive, glass-back design, a fully waterproof body and an impressive 20-megapixel camera. It's let down by poor ergonomics and a display with mediocre viewing angles, but remains a worthy choice overall...

The most powerful mobile device I've ever tested; Fully waterproof; Sleek, glass and aluminium design; Razor-sharp, bright screen
Disappointing battery life; Wide bezel results in chunky body; Camera can be hit and miss in auto mode; Pricey
The Sony Xperia Z1 packs a Full HD display and a ludicrously powerful processor into a gorgeous, totally waterproof body. It has some serious bragging rights, but it's let down by its unimpressive battery life and chunky size....

The Sony Xperia Z1 enters the market at a busy time for Android devices, and smartphones in general. But unlike former Xperia smartphones, the Z1 manages to go head-to-head with most of its competition in nearly every category. While the display disappoin...
In terms of performance, call quality and battery life, I would say the Xperia Z1 is above average in every respect. It really is an impressive step up from the earlier Xperia models and a fine flagship Android smartphone that can stand toe-to-toe against...

Abstract: Available in three colours, the Sony Xperia Z1 looks sleek and elegant; it's perfectly suited to those who don't want to have their phone stand out all of the time, whilst looking extremely smooth.Nearly the entire phone itself is glass, with just the edg...
Abstract: I now have 3 very good smartphones with awesome cameras in my possession, so it would make sense for me to do a “camera face off”.We are going to compare the Nokia Lumia 1020 and Xperia Z1 against the new-comer – the Huawei P7.The test is in no way scient...
