Overview
What this part is
This charging port flex is built for the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. The Xperia XZ and XZ Premium have similar names but different internal layouts, so check your model number before ordering.
On the XZ Premium the USB-C socket is part of a flex cable that runs to the main board. When the socket wears or gets dirty, the plug loosens and charging becomes unreliable. Try another cable and clean the port gently before replacing the flex.

Professional installation
How a technician fits this part
- Power the phone off and remove the SIM and card tray.
- Warm the glass back panel to soften the adhesive and lift it off carefully.
- Disconnect the battery before anything else.
- Remove the parts covering the charging flex and unplug the old flex.
- Fit the new flex, reconnect it and refit the covers.
- Reconnect the battery, test charging and USB data, then seal the back with new adhesive.
Check that the part matches the device before fitting it or removing any adhesive backing. Once a part has been fitted, it cannot be returned for a change of mind. Faulty parts are always covered.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Will this fit my Xperia XZ?
No. Despite the similar name, this flex is for the Xperia XZ Premium (G8141 and G8142). It does not fit the Xperia XZ (F8331 and F8332).
Will it fit my Xperia XZ Premium?
Yes, if Settings › About phone shows Xperia XZ Premium (models G8141 or G8142).
Is the socket already fitted to the flex?
Yes. The USB-C socket is part of the flex cable, so no soldering is needed.
Is it made by Sony?
No. It is a brand new, OEM-quality charging flex made to fit the Sony Xperia XZ Premium, and it is tested before dispatch.
Should I fit it myself?
We recommend professional installation. The glass back must be removed with heat and resealed afterwards to keep water out.
