The UnboxingTN Verdict
out of 100
A compact, rugged Xperia with a sharp 120Hz OLED and versatile cameras, but limited battery endurance and dated Android 11 weaken the package.
What is good
- 6.1-inch 120Hz OLED delivers sharp, fluid visuals
- IP68 rating and 168g weight make it durable and manageable
- 12MP triple camera includes OIS and 3x optical zoom
What is not
- 4500mAh battery offers limited endurance
- 30W wired charging is modest
- Android 11 is an ageing software foundation
