It's now been over a month since I bought my Sony Xperia Z3 and it continues to serve as my primary phone on T-Mobile.

The fantastic Sony SmartWatch 3 helps make my mobile experience complete, but there are also several reasons the Z3 remains my favorite Android device.

Here's my top 10 reasons the Z3 is my current top phone, not in any particular order:

Audio experience : While the front facing stereo speakers are good, the support for active noise cancelling earbuds is awesome for my daily train commute and flights.

Magnetic wireless charging: I would love to see Qi charging, but the ability to set the Z3 in a dock or use a special magnetic cable are also great ways to charge without pulling open the microUSB cover.

As you can see, the Sony Xperia Z3 is nearly the perfect smartphone for me and I think it will be with me for quite some time. Because of this, I have purchased two wireless charging docks (one for home and one for work), a couple of cases, and a glass screen protector.
