                Looks cool !! Although a little improvement in the battery & graphics department would have made it "a perfect hardware combination".

                Let's see, what's new Sony is bringing through its latest version of USER INTERFACE.

Just by putting phone on table i had washed out display . Even tech radar and gsmarena people had the same complaints.

                      Like a year ago - Sony had its chance to be competitive if they have released these devices NOW. In two moths time we'll see more interesting devices from HTC, maybe Samsung and who knows - even more companies.

                        All i can say, whoever gets this phone is not a loser. Does it live up to competition ? time shall decide, but for now xperia Z seems to be a good device.

I have xperia phone. just turn on the backlit and you can have a nice viewing angle and will catch up with the glossiness of the glass.

                            With 5 inches , these displays are going to have terrible viewing angles and pathetic sunlight legibility . And i dont even want to talk about the battery life . What innovation is this ? Just bumping the specs thats all ?

They watch and abso... moreur right :D i like buzzes floating up here and there on how these phones be compared to an unofficial phone (s4) from samsung.. i know s4 will become 2013's smartphone again if sammy will listen to the concerns of the market.. ..if and only if.. u can prove that u can beat all 1080p displays out here even with this mobile BRavia 2, prove that u can make ur DESIGN more appealing and compact, make TOUCHWIZ more elegant coz im truly in love with the most elegant UI ryt now--Sony's timescape,.. add phone ACCESSORIES, improve BATTERY performance,use the newly released PROCESSORS, :D
                              anyways u hav a lot of money now, so im sure dat u have a wild team ryt now which are really QUIET i think, maybe tremendously preparing for s4 release..

                              more time to wait and compare the two :D march release for xperia Z, hoping that on march, samsung will make s4 official before the market turns in favor with sony..

                              htc butterfly, how r u?
