Sony Xperia 10 IV

The Sony Xperia 10 IV is a great choice for anyone looking for an affordable 5G Android device that does a bit of everything. It combines a practical and attractive slim design with a long battery life, a sharp OLED display and simple software. However, the smartphone falls short of the competition in some areas.

It shows that a brilliant OLED display, a good camera and more don't have to cost a lot.

Class warfare: entry-level devices push down the price, mid-range devices want to be an alternative to expensive ones, and high-end models outperform the already strong flagships. Of course, you can't tell how good a smartphone is by its price. The test also shows that. Devices over 1,000 euros like the iPhone 14 are not necessarily better than those under 1,000 euros like the Google Pixel 7 Pro...

Making phone calls, sending messages, surfing the internet - for most people, everyday life is hardly conceivable without a smartphone. It is therefore all the more important to be able to rely on the devices. The Stiftung Warentest smartphone test answers the question of which model is the test winner and which ones lack stability or basic functions.
