60% Sony Xperia Z3+ review: Sony phones in another incremental upgrade to its flagship line
Source: T3 EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
So where does this leave the Sony Xperia Z3+? In many ways it’s a great handset, with a lovely design and some nice extras that you won’t find on its competitors. Its media playing capabilities are a particular highlight, and if you’re happy to go without the very latest technology, then the Z3+ isn’t a bad purchase.

60% Minor upgrades and heating issues mean you should wait for the Xperia Z5
Source: Tech Advisor EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Like previous devices, the Sony Xperia Z3+ is a nice smartphone. Although we like the capless USB port and the addition of the Snapdragon 810, it's simply far too similar to the Xperia Z3 to justify an upgrade – perhaps owners of older generations will be more tempted. It doesn't help that the firm is alienating customers by launching the same phone in Japan as the Xperia Z4. Compared to rivals, the Xperia Z3+ has a lot of good qualities but lacks a Quad HD screen and extra features like wireless charging.

What's new in the Sony Xperia Z5?
Source: Tech Advisor EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Sony Xperia Z5 introduces some nice upgrades over the Z3+, with an improved camera and a new fingerprint scanner. There's also support for more removable storage via microSD, although we suspect few users will take advantage of the full 200GB. However, with more than a £100 price difference between the Z3+ and Z5 when it launches, and no upgrades in the screen or core hardware, we would consider waiting for the price to drop a little before rushing out to upgrade.

80% Sony Xperia Z3+ review - not the Z4 we were hoping for
Source: Expert Reviews EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Xperia Z3+ is a perfectly competent handset, but it lacks that special something to justify its premium 'plus' status. It wouldn't be so bad if the Xperia Z3 was no longer on sale, but the fact you can now pick one up for £400 SIM-free or £33.50-per-month on contract makes the £500 or £39-per-month Xperia Z3+ seem a little redundant, despite the welcome increase in speed.

We almost feel sorry for Sony that what could have been a great phone is tainted by the overheating problem with the Snapdragon 810. It seriously affects the phone's performance, making it frustrating to use because it will need to be charged at least twice a day. Very disappointing.

Many have scoffed at the seemingly benign upgrades between Sony Xperia Z device revisions, somewhat rightfully criticizing Sony for rushing to update its flagship handsets twice a year. And as far as incremental, insignificant upgrades go, the Xperia Z3+ is arguably the worst It does look like Sony's irrational strategy finally got the best of them, as the Xperia Z3 is, essentially, last year's smartphone with a new generation chipset that's somewhat more powerful, but tends to heat up and is not as power-efficient, contributing to significantly worse battery life. Save for the fine 5MP front camera and the faster LTE Cat 6 support, there are no meaningful usability improvements whatsoever to counteract the aforementioned problems.

Overall, the Xperia Z3+ isn’t a phone that I can recommend over the original Z3. While the exposed water-proofed USB port is nice, the performance and heat issues makes using the Xperia Z3+ a frustrating experience. Add to that the rumors of Sony announcing a new phone at IFA in a few weeks and you’re left scratching your head wondering why Sony even bothered with the Xperia Z3+.

It's a perfectly capable handset, but that's not what we really want at this price range, and it's certainly not what Sony needs to reverse its mobile fortunes. There's nothing here that would make you ditch an iPhone or Samsung for an Xperia, and there are cheaper phones, like the OnePlus 2, which promise to deliver more bang for your buck.

75% Excellent camera, battery life; but heating issues and price point is disappointing
Source: Tech2.in.com EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Sony Xperia Z3+ blazes across when it comes to benchmark scores and raw performance. The camera performance is one of the best we have seen among the current crop of flagship devices, specially the steadyshot videos. And the battery life of the phone impresses. But heating issues is the major Achilles heel that the Japanese company has to take care of with its flagship phone. Then you have the price point.

Sony Xperia Z3+ (Z4) review – thinking of upgrading from the Xperia Z3? Better think twice
Source: Laptop Media EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
We are again presented with great build quality and design. Maybe not so practical as the glass on the back is slippery and the thin profile makes it uncomfortable to hold and operate with one hand. However, most users will not notice this as much. On the other hand, a lot of users have reported that the cap for the micro USB port wears off quickly on the Xperia Z1, Z2 and Z3 thus losing its water resistant properties. Sony has eliminated the problem here with removing the cap for the micro USB port – it’s a small but really noticeable change. The screen is again of a great quality and we are happy to see that Sony kept this panel for the release of the Xperia Z3+ – it’s just flawless.

83% The best from Sony just falls short of the mark
Source: Androidcommunity.com EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
So there you have it for this in-depth look at the Sony Xperia Z3+! Nowadays, it takes quite a lot to push a high-end smartphone to another level without doing completely different. Unfortunately, Sony may not do as well as the other Android OEMs out there, and that is really a shame, since there are quite a few die-hard fans of Sony devices. Their products are fantastic, but they just don’t seem to appeal to the mass market. That is something they can capitalize on though by catering to the niche market, by focusing on features such as audio, and the IP certification.

70% Sony Xperia Z3+ review: Hot stuff (literally)
Source: Pocket Lint EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
From the lofty highs of the Z3, the Xperia Z3+ is, ironically, a big minus against Sony's Z-series. It's hotted things up in terms of design, but also all too literally: that Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor gets excessively hot, causing issues with battery life and making some features, such as the camera, approximately useless.

The Sony Xperia Z3+ is the same phone as the company's last flagship, but with inferior performance. It makes no sense for Xperia Z3 users to 'upgrade' to this and in the current market, it's got absolutely nothing that it offers over its competitors or even the mid-ranged flagships.

60% The Pros and Cons of Staying on Top
Source: NDTV Gadgets EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
We would have liked to say that the Xperia Z3+'s biggest competition will be the Xperia Z3, but that model is set to be phased out. The Xperia Z3+ will be coming in at a much higher price than the existing Samsung Galaxy S6 and even the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus which have been available online with hefty discounts over the past few months. It becomes difficult for us to give Sony's offering a recommendation under these circumstances.

Hands on: Sony Xperia Z3+ review
Source: Techradar EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Sony has managed to dust- and waterproof the charging port, ensuring the Z3+ retains its IP65/68 rating. Round the back you'd be hard pushed to tell the difference between the Z3 and the Xperia Z3 Plus, with the same 20.7MP camera and LED flash located in the top corner while the 'Xperia' and 'Sony' logos reside in the same positions along with the NFC image.

No, it’s not worth considering. It isn’t a wholly bad phone, but the camera overheating issues are a fundamental flaw you cannot ignore. Overheating when shooting 4K video is one thing, but doing so when just taking photos is something else.

In not levelling-up the camera, the photo side also falls behind the competition from Samsung and LG, and while the battery is still very good, it's not quite as good as its own predecessor the Z3. Still, that battery life remains class-leading, while its classy UI and a super-bold larger-than-life screen deserve to win it a healthy crop of fans. Maybe just not quite as big a crop as it would without those flaws.

Sony’s Xperia Z3+ isn’t an essential upgrade if you already own the Xperia Z3 or even the Xperia Z2, with just a slight tweaking of the specs and a couple of new features to boast of. Those heating issues are also very real and concerning, especially when using the camera.

Sony Xperia Z3+: First Impressions
Source: NDTV Gadgets EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Xperia Z3+ brings a number of small improvements over the Xperia Z3, although there is nothing really new or revolutionary. Interestingly, Sony will phase out the Xperia Z3 now that the Z3+ has been launched rather than let it fall to a lower price point. With no way to tell whether Sony has abandoned its six-month cycle for good, we don't know how long it will be till Sony's next flagship launches. As of now, it will be a tough sell at Rs. 55,900 when the Samsung Galaxy S6 and iPhone 6 are available for less.

Sony Xperia Z3+ review: The pre-sequel
Source: GSM Arena EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
With the Xperia Z3+ Sony has refined its OmniBalance design to near perfection. The flapless microUSB port has brought the demise of the pogo pins and now there's only one short single flap to cover the card slot. In effect, the frame has gotten much sleeker and together with the new materials exudes even more luxury. Couple that with the slimmer 6.9mm profile and the Xperia Z3+ is again one of the top choices for the vain buyer.

What's the difference between Z3 and Z3+ - new features in the Sony Xperia Z3+ - Z3 vs Z4
Source: Tech Advisor EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Z3+ is a faster version of an already very fast smartphone, and few users would complain that the Z3 is slow. However, the processor change brings it up to speed with its 2015 smartphone rivals, and we appreciate the extra storage space as standard (and Sony has managed it without removing the microSD card slot). The other improvements are nice, but unless you're a Sony enthusiast there's little here to warrant the expense of an upgrade from the Xperia Z3. In fact, we still highly rate the Z3 Compact - a smaller version of Sony's Z3 with a much more attractive price of £280 (Amazon), and that could well be half the asking price of the Z3+.
