Today we’re going to recommend five of our favourite accessories for the new Xperia XZ2 and Xperia XZ2 Compact smartphones from Sony. These XZ2 accessories are designed to offer incredible value for money, adding new functions to your Xperia XZ2 or keeping it safe in the face of danger. Hopefully you’ll find at least a couple of accessory ideas that you really like. Without further ado, here is our top five list!
5. Roxfit Curved Tempered Glass Screen Protector
The most important accessory is one that keeps your Xperia XZ2 safe. No matter whether you’re using a case or not, adding a screen protector is the best way to ensure you don’t have to suffer annoying cracks or a costly screen repair. This screen protector from Roxfit is made from curved, tempered glass that provides a close fit and legendary endurance. The XZ2 screen protector is easy to apply too, thanks to its rigid design, and it includes an oleophobic coating which resists fingerprints, dust and other grime.
4. 4smarts USB-C VoltDock
The VoltDock is a simple concept: a USB-C charging dock that keeps your phone in a convenient upright position. If you’ve ever missed an important call, message or email because your phone wasn’t in your eyeline, then you’ll want the VoltDock. The dock also works great with other USB-C phones, so you’ll be able to use it for years and years.
3. Olixar Magnetic Vent Mount Car Holder
This clever car holder attaches itself to your car’s vents, then magnetically adheres to your smartphone (thanks to a matching magnetic pad that you place inside your Xperia XZ’s case, on the back of your case or directly on the phone itself). You would expect that a magnetic connection wouldn’t be as strong as a physical grip from a traditional car holder, but you’d be wrong — this is a super strong and secure connection that will keep your phone in place even on bumpy roads. This car holder also doubles as a desk stand; just tuck a credit card into the vent attachment to keep your phone at a comfortable angle on your desk. Given this versatility, it’s easy to see why we recommend this XZ2 car holder!
2. 4smarts VoltBeam 3-in-1 Wireless Charger
There are plenty of wireless charging pads on the market that will work with the Xperia XZ2, but I wanted to find a special one. This example from 4smarts certainly fits that description, as it includes three ports to ensure you can provide power to the universal wireless charger no matter which cable you have on hand: Lightning, Micro USB and of course USB-C ports are all included. The wireless charger offers good charging speeds and is made from premium materials too — awesome.
1. Samsung 64GB Micro SD Card w/ Adapter
Our top recommendation is a Micro SD card! This option from Samsung is a 64GB model that offers UHS Speed Class 3 performance — that means 30 MB/s as a minimum write speed, enough to write 4K video directly to the card! That’s pretty handy. The high read and write speeds also ensure you don’t waste time transferring media from the card to your phone’s storage, or from the card to your PC. Each operation will be quick and efficient, exactly as you’d expect from a brand new smartphone. By the way, if 64GB isn’t your style, you can find larger 128GB and 256GB options here too.
