Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Sony Xperia 10 II (4GB + 128GB)

  • Excellent, high-quality 21:9 OLED display, great for watching movies and multitasking.
  • Outstanding battery life, often lasting a full day of heavy use or up to two days with moderate use.
  • Lightweight and narrow design makes it easy to hold and use with one hand.
  • Durable build quality with IP65/68 water and dust resistance, a rare feature in its price range.
  • Includes a 3.5mm headphone jack and expandable storage via microSD.
  • Near stock Android experience with minimal bloatware.
  • Photos taken in good lighting conditions are crisp and detailed.

What we don't like about Sony Xperia 10 II (4GB + 128GB)

  • Performance is a key weakness; the Snapdragon 665 chipset is considered dated and slow compared to similarly priced rivals, with noticeable lag when opening apps or multitasking.
  • Camera performance is disappointing, with slow autofocus, shutter lag, and poor results in low-light conditions.
  • Lack of stereo speakers (it has a single, underwhelming mono speaker) hurts the multimedia experience despite the great screen.
  • The shiny glass back is very slippery and a fingerprint magnet, making a case almost a necessity.
  • The vibration motor is described by some as noisy and high-pitched.
  • Does not include a fast charger in the box, which must be purchased separately to achieve 18W fast charging speeds.

Verdict

The Sony Xperia 10 II (4GB + 128GB) is a sleek, lightweight mid-range smartphone with an excellent 6.0" 21:9 FHD+ OLED display and a durable, water-resistant (IP65/68) design, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 6. Key specifications include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 processor, a versatile rear triple-lens camera (12MP wide, 8MP telephoto with 2x optical zoom, and 8MP ultrawide), a 3600mAh battery, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and expandable storage up to 1TB via microSDXC. Main pros are its unique cinematic OLED display ideal for movies, premium build quality with IP ratings, slim form factor for easy one-handed use, and a nearly stock Android experience. Cons often mentioned are its comparatively slow performance and occasional stuttering due to the mid-range processor, a disappointing single, mono loudspeaker, and a camera system that struggles in low light and can have slow autofocus.
