What the critics say (scores are out of 100)

88/100

NotebookCheck | Daniel Schmidt

The Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium is a real heavyweight, something true both physically and regarding its hardware. Our only hardware gripe is Sony's decision to omit a headphone jack.

phoneArena | John Velasco

At the end of the day, it's still good enough to compete against some of the greats out in the space right now.

Android Headlines | Nick Sutrich

Sony's Xperia XZ2 Premium is one of the best performing phones on the market, with an unbelievably good 4K HDR display, ultra-high quality sound output amazing vibration motors, spectacular new cameras, and a refreshed design language.

Engadget | Cherlynn Low

Ultimately, the XZ2 Premium is a strong flagship with some quirky features. But it also has quite a few flaws. I won't harp too much on the outdated design, since personal taste is subjective, but I can't ignore the massive price tag.

TechRadar | Andrew Williams

This chunky number is not our pick of the year's ultra-high price phones, but the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium does excel at low light video.

Tom's Guide | Adam Ismail

The range-topping Xperia XZ2 Premium adds a 4K display and dual cameras to Sony's formidable Android flagship, but the phone remains stuck in the past.

Expert Reviews | Tom Bruce

Expensive, bulky and with below-average battery life, the Xperia XZ2 Premium lags behind the best flagship smartphones.

Trusted Reviews | Jon Mundy

It's a highly accomplished device by most technical standards, but it simply doesn't hang together as a friction-free, pleasant-to-use smartphone.

Digital Trends | Julian Chokkattu

Unless you desperately want to film in 4K HDR or often find yourself filming in low light, this phone doesn't do enough for its high price tag, and it's not pleasurable to use.

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM only deals are limited to 30-day and 12-month plans, excluding shorter plans and Pay As You Go rates.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
