    [deleted post]And xperia z was released before optimus g pro and LG copied the note 2 design. It looked like it is made by samsung. And LG never update their phones even their flagships.

      [deleted post]Sony didn,t copy! No one did. Sony phones are good at awesome with amazing design and water proofing. LG makes good phones to. Stop bashing sony. Im not against LG. Because every company has their own flaws and disadvantage.

                that's the reason Samsung didn't lead in Japan (three largest economy in the world).

                    skyp, 20 May 2013lg optimus all the wayHey LG fanboi, AGAIN, ur comments do not matter here. Let me remind your brand will never be popular bec. reality check 1. People do not like their phone named as their crap appliance 2. Your designs are always samsung copy cats 3. Nothing special about your OS, not even in your hardware 4. You got Nexus now but Google still contracted Samsung to make the vanilla version 5. Google fed up of supply issues and customer returns, in short LG fail to deliver. 6. Flood all u want but LG will never rise into any rankings not even Gsmarena's.

                      Anonymous, 20 May 2013so this is exactly like the XZ or XZL but with a camera but... moreI guess the correct term would be its a fusion between the Xperia Z and the Xperia ZL in-terms of design. It has a curved back like the Xperia ZL but its smooth like the Xperia Z. It has a camera button like the Xperia ZL but has waterproof features that the Xperia ZL lacks. Button layout closely resembles the Xperia Z with the volume rocker closer to the bottom of the device compared to the the Xperia ZL with the volume rocker closer to the top of the device. The silver power button is also more exposed. So yes and no, the design does match its sister devices. That being said its design is obviously different if you compare all three devices :D.

                          so this is exactly like the XZ or XZL but with a camera button? i really dont understand fanboys saying all galaxy's looks the same.

                              I'm glad to hear that KDDI has a chance to get a flagship :D. So now DocomoNTT has Xperia A/Z, KDDI received the Xperia UL, and the rest of the world gets to enjoy the Xperia Z/ZL, without worrying about Sony pushing out a new flagship device making the one they just purchased obsolete.

                                  AnonD-100260, 20 May 2013For your information Google was interested in Sony to make ... moresony is better than sony?

                                    Oh cmon its just a phone, no need to argue which brand is better. Its japan only anyway what does it have to do with us ?
                                    Although iam a more of a SONY guy :D but i still respect LG since its my first phone.

                                    But what i dont get is why are there so much japan exclusive phones ? Japanese variants look like their better featured too if you asked me.

                                    And finally SONY is making a lot of IP certified phones are because in Japan it has become a standart and i wouldnt be surprised if every other manufacturer does the same thing. Its not copying, its simply the standart that SONY or particulary Japan sets.
