To recap

Sony’s mid-range phone offers some unique features in its compact format and it has a high quality IP-rated (water-resistant) design. It’s paired with reasonable hardware and battery, while the software is pretty clean. But it’s overpriced for the hardware you get and the camera experience just isn’t competitive.
