If Sony Mobile, the smartphone division of the Japanese conglomerate, were a person, he would be the quirky uncle in the family, the non-conformist with weird but interesting stories to share.

Viewing Netflix videos is indeed one of the high points of the Xperia, with 21:9 movies such as Thor: Ragnarok and Roma filling up the entire screen without any black bars at the sides, while those shot in high dynamic range look bright and vibrant. For instance, slide your finger up either edge of the Xperia to bring up a list of apps - pick two to open in split-screen mode. Double- tapping the edge shows a list of frequently used apps as well as key settings such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi controls, while sliding down the edge returns to the previous window.

Despite supplying most of the camera sensors used in the smartphones of other manufacturers, Sony lags behind its rivals in camera performance.
