What the Critics Are Saying...

The Sony Xperia 10 III is without doubt an unusual smartphone, and for the most part that’s actually a good thing, especially when it comes to the design and the display. However it does take its eye off the ball in a couple of key areas like performance level and fast-charging capability.

The Xperia 10 III is a clear upgrade on its predecessor, but familiar shortcomings remain. In the ultra-competitive mid-range space, it’s hard to recommend.

Like its stablemates, the Sony Xperia 10 III is to a large extent defined by its 21:9 screen, whose benefits will only really be felt when you're watching video shot with that wide aspect ratio. The build quality is solid and it's nice to see 5G support, but in other respects this feels like a phone...

The Sony Xperia 10 III is a solid all-round phone. It will be good for those who need a little of everything. It has a premium feel, plenty of memory, and a reliable battery. The screen is nice, the camera delivers good photos, and it’s tough (thanks to that Gorilla Glass) and nice to look at, too. ...

The Sony Xperia 10 III is well-crafted, that’s for sure. It reflects Sony’s expertise at making products with a razor-sharp focus on understated, elegant designs and good ergonomics, without paying heed to the latest fad. Above-average battery life and water resistance are big pluses for this value...
