Seems a lot but for the extra time it takes to charge, you will still get more talk time. Just look for a more powerful charger.
2 day battery life is here at last! Remember they days when your phone would barely last until the end of the day? How frustrated you were when it died on the way home from work? No more!

I really don't understand the long charging times.
Z2 needs 3.5h,
Z3 now 4h!
Z1C 2.5h,
Z3C now 3.5h!
It's horrible, the only time when you can charge is over night.
@XperiaJunkie: Z3C looks brighter and a bit sharper.

Yeah but logically, you will get more up time per partial charge because the battery is so much better.
Plus, because of this increased battery performance you're less likely to run out in the first place.

But in this time you can charge other phones twice!

But they won't last half as long.

That's because the charger that comes with Sony phones has weak power output usually between 1 - 1.5A.
For comparison LG G3 comes with charger rated at 1.8A and the mighty Oppo 7 at 4.5A.

I had a high powered charger for my Xperia Z. It really makes a difference. I use it on my Xperia U and it charges that to full in about 1h.

Goldenface: why not half so long? You mean almost same.
I have here a Z Ultra, Z2, Z1 Compact, T3, OnePlus One, S5 and a G3. They all reach about 7-10h DOT!
Only the G3 can not, it reach max 6h. A Mega 6.3 is also here, get also about 6-8h DOT.
Hilmawan: I have also tried stronger charger like 2A and 1,8A, it's a bit faster, but the difference is small, cause Sony uses a protection in it's devices.
For example, normal chargetime of my Ultra (3000mAh) need exactly 3h. When I use the 2A charger it needs 2.5h.
The G2 or G3 both 3000mAh battery need with a 1.8A charger only 2h.
Or better example, T3 has 2500mAh battery, the original charger has only 0.85A output, it needs 3.5h for full charging.
I have used then the 1.5A charger, you will wonder, it was only half hour faster, at the end 3h! Although charger is almost twice strong.

fast charging could be degrading your battery too quickly. based on reviews, your G3 should last longer than your z ultra. or is that some typo?
