The LCD screen is sharp and bright, but colors aren’t as vibrant and the blacks aren’t as deep as the AMOLED screen on our Google Pixel XL.

Instead the XZ1 has a Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) pixel resolution. A good display, and daylong batteryĪt 5.2-inches, the Xperia XZ1 is smaller than your average flagship smartphone, and its size means you definitely don’t need a super high resolution like the Note 8’s 2960 x 1440-pixels. The MicroSD card slot means you can expand that storage up to 256GB if you need more space. You’ll find 4GB of RAM, which helps with multitasking, and 64GB of internal storage should be plenty for most people.

Benchmarks aren’t the be-all end-all of performance though, so don’t rely on it too much. Naturally, it didn’t come close to the iPhone 8, which scored a massive 214,492 on AnTuTu. These benchmark scores are quite good, as the XZ1 managed to beat out other high-end phones like the Samsung Galaxy S8, which scored 155,253 in its AnTuTu test. Let’s take a look at those Benchmark scores:

The smooth performance is all thanks to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, which is the same chip you’ll find powering most Android handsets of 2017, including the Galaxy S8 Plus, and the Pixel 2. It was able to handle graphic-intensive games, like Asphalt 8, extremely well, and the only stutter we saw was when it tried to load an ad in the game’s menu. It’s responsive and snappy, apps load quickly, and we didn’t have problems when multitasking. You’ll hardly have any issues with the Sony Xperia XZ1’s performance. The company confirmed we can expect to see a visual refresh in 2018, and hopefully it includes a fingerprint sensor. If you’re looking for something new in Sony design, wait until next year. We do like the XZ1’s design - the back is minimal and attractive, but the front looks dated due to the chunky edges around the screen. You’ll have to stick with a PIN or swipe pattern here. The lack of a fingerprint sensor is inconvenient, especially since you can use it to unlock banking and other security sensitive apps. Sony has long-claimed the reason it doesn’t have a fingerprint sensor is a “business decision.” It’s puzzling, because you can find the sensor on the international models of these Xperia phones. You may have noticed something missing missing: There’s no fingerprint sensor. On the top, you might be pleased to know there’s a headphone jack. The power button is indented - it doesn’t stick out like traditional buttons. On the XZ1, you can immediately launch the camera by pressing the button and use it to capture photos and videos. We always like to see dedicated shutter buttons, and wish more manufacturers added them in. On the right is the power button, volume rocker, and a camera button. Sony has been reusing the same design theme for the past four years.
