All photos come out with a smudged filter. So don't buy this for photography unless you're as fond as me of the added camera shutter button on the side - seriously useful sometimes. The stabilisation though is one of the best for its time. Don't update the OS to more than Android 8 as it will downgrade the camera software. Otherwise, it is OKAY. Average loudspeakers, average features, average basics, it is not a showstopper - but it does seem to be durable. Harder to crack it than an all-glass phone. Good battery saving function. Plays games well, does not overheat like the Xperias of old. Does not do random shutdowns. Does not flush the memory excessively. Essentially faultless, but in no category stellar.
