Customer Review

Hello to all readers,
with the help of my review I hope that I can be a decision-making aid potential buyers and let you have on my far-week experience with the Xperia Z2 part =)
Specifications I mention this only for comparison reasons, as these are likely to be well known. I go (calls, display, etc.) from my subjective point of view, which is why many would surely be valued differently or maybe even one or two things could miss in my review completely. In the weighting of the individual components

I handle the individual points according to their weighting for me from unimportant from too important.

Design: The delicate appearance and slim appearance are deceptive. The smartphone is significantly greater than it implies by its simplicity. Due to its bar form, it is anything but a flatterer and It's still fun to keep the Z2 in hand. At first keep it soon becomes clear that you can maintain a beautiful piece of technology in his hands and exactly this impression should convey the design of mobile phones also. With my average size hands one-handed operation is possible with restrictions, the upper left corner is no longer accessible. The design is overall very high quality and it's fun smartphone in hand to have. I forgive on the Z2 in the category Design 4 out of 5 points, since the bezel a bit is still too large in relation to the screen diagonal.
(4/5)

Battery: The battery of the smartphone for me was never a decisive selling point, as it was common practice in the morning the phone to separate from the power supply and to tie it in the evening back to the same. Nothing was more despite mentioned at this point that the 3200 mAh strong battery with average usage (about 100 Whatsapp messages, play 1 hours, surf 2 hours 20 minutes calls) problemslos by holding two days, which so far managed not a smartphone with me has. The battery performance is well above average.
(5/5)

Calling and texting: Making calls as a basic function of any mobile phones or smartphones also works smoothly here. The caller on the other hand sounds stehts clear, so clear that I did not even notice at first call, he had already accepted the call. As the voice of the Z2 user arrives at the interlocutor, I have not asked, but so far no complaints came in this regard. The reception is with my Galaxy S4 or my predecessor Xperia T. SMS write much better than they did (or even Whatsappnachrichten) goes through it very accurate and intelligent Swypetastatur very easily by hand, so you in the shortest possible time, a small fast wrote the novel.
(5/5)

Music: The music player of the Xperia Z2 is, as usual from Sony, designed immensely appealing. The structuring is clear, the symbols clearly and despite the linear structure of the player acts in no way boring. Regardless of the appealing desing of Walkman player, this can bring the best quality of the songs by numerous equalizer settings. Was praised here on the one hand, the stereo speakers to mention. Sony has it - as well as HTC already last year with his One M7 - understood that the speakers sound best when they sonicated your audience head-on, instead of sitting on the back panel and sound in the empty space. Secondly, I would like to mention the outstanding in-ears. This, coming with several essays headphones will play the music bass intensely and naturally. What completes the whole is almost incomprehensible, Digital Noise Cancelling. It is a fascinating feeling aufzuhaben the headphones to listen to music in full, dynamic range and to see the mouth of the friend who moves without you what she perceives says (which does not mean a word of the, would I not like to listen to my wife).
(5/5)

Display: Finally Sony has done it! After at least one year, weak viewing angles and gray veils Sony has finally an IPS panel installed and lo and behold: It looks really really good! The 5.2 inch screen is color vigorously again, exaggerating the contrasts not as extreme as a SuperAMOLED and has an incredibly clear white (it had compared to the Samsung Galaxy S4, which rather has a cool blue). If you are into extreme contrasts and even more vivid colors, is better off with a SuperAMOLED, I personally like the more natural colors, which is why I would always prefer a LCD. The viewing angle stability can be no reason to complain about and thanks FullHD and the already-mentioned stereo speakers on the front, making the movies look really fun, even for two.
Display (5/5)

Performance: The performance is, the Snapdragon owed 801 and 3 GB Ram, at extremely high levels. Like the rest of the smartphone elite over to S5 One M8 neither cooling-off periods are still perceive striking stuttering. Each application opens blink of an eye and that's the least that can be expected for a smartphone in this price range. All in all, a round performance that the Xperia Z2 puts to light.
(5/5)

Internet: Using the Internet, either by simply surfing, writing emails or claimed by Facebook, benefits from many before mentioned points. On the one hand from the incredible sharp, 5.2 "large screen, which font and images more than laudable resist are. On the other hand by the very good reception, which allows me almost anywhere to load video and websites. The reception performance has been built particularly through the LTE module improved remarkably.
However, the biggest advantage brings performance increase. Websites and videos load much faster, despite the same MB / s transfer rate.
(5/5)

Camera: For me personally, the most important feature in the smartphone package. The Handycam a modern smartphones replaced my opinion now cheap digital cameras, which really demonstrates the Z2 highly impressive manner. The pictures look very natural and do thanks to 20 megapixels on the television still fun. In artificial light and low evening light, the camera can brighten the images very well, would be seen without doing excessive noise. The numerous adjustment possibilities make fun and besides funny gimmicks like AR-effects there are also interesting features like Timeshift, in the parts of a recorded videos can be played in slow motion, or background blur, similar as in the new HTC One M8, this effect takes two camera lenses, is achieved with two photos taken in immediate succession. Since I work-related travel frequently, I am happy because the memories gained noon sights or evening with colleagues to hold the bar firmly on screen. A DSLR is not replacing the smartphone of course, but for everyday use it is far more than satisfactory.
(5/5)

Conclusion: The Sony Xperia Z2 scores with its elegant design, its powerful battery, the excellent acoustics, both the phone and while listening to music, the strong performance and the viewing angle stable display. I can write a very strong buy recommendation for each issue, seeking the most modern and most powerful thing to find on the market. Especially for camera enthusiasts and friends who want to enjoy high-quality materials, I can only recommend this smartphone. Compared with the S5, it stands out by those very choice of materials from the camera and suggests that the HTC One M8 to lengths (remember subjective impression!).
Anyone who calls this device its own, I hope you enjoy it.
Overall impression (5/5)

Update (04/06/2014): In the meantime, it has been found that the smartphone as the Z Ultra is to operate with each conductive pin as well, such as with a pencil.. Very nice gimmick, but actually makes it easier for the post of notes.

Update (11/07/2014): The features of the Z3 are now passes to update to Android 4.4.4 also on Z2. The system is still Ruckelfrei and liquid, according to benchmarks it has even become a bit better performance. The camera has received many new add-ons, as well as many apps carry a fresher look. Now, it is also several small apps at the same time take into operation.
Bin since the date of purchase still extremely satisfied, the Xperia Z2 would not want to miss!
