Anonymous, 10 Jul 2013Yes, they are. An IR blaster is totally superfluous. I gues... more1. Removable batteries are more practical. Instead of waiting for hours to charge if you're a heavy user like me, is just change the battery in less than a minute. I charge the spent one at home. Carrying that flat battery is better than carrying a battery bank.
2. A Wacom digitizer has 1024 pressure level sensitivity and this is whati can do with it with Adobe Touch on my Note II:

And this one with the Sketchbook Pro that won me a Galaxy Note 8 in a competition:

Do you see the details with the graded airbrushing? Those are done easier thanks to the pressure controls of The S Pen. The hard pointed tip detecting technology the XZU has will only give you uniform lines and uniform "pressure" while on airbrush mode.
Don't comment on something you don't need or use.

I can stop to tie my shoe laces with my Note II in my front jeans pocket, without the need to take it out. I can put my Note II inside my top pocket shirt with a pocket cover. You need a bag or belt pouch while commuting to carry the XZU.

TheNeighbor, 10 Jul 2013Those aren't minor features.Yes, they are. An IR blaster is totally superfluous. I guess if you offered me one, I'd take it, but who doesn't have a remote? Better yet, who watches TV on a TV these days?
The removable battery has become the last bastion for Samsung diehards. After Samsung has been steadily passed up design, build quality, display quality, and performance, that removable battery is now the only thing that Samsung defenders can claim in Samsung's favor. But the fact is, with today's long-lasting Li-po batteries, it IS a minor detail. Just give it up.
S-pen is obsolete now that Z Ultra can use anything as a stylus. In reality, most people don't give a crap about the stylus at all, let alone wacom. It's far more convenient to be able to use anything lying aroud as a stylus.
I cannot believe people are actually complaining about not having an LED flash. Ever used one? I have. They always make the picture look terrible. I leave mine off all the time. And if you miss the torch function, just spend $0.99 at the drugstore and get one of those keychain lights. I'll even give you the money.

Not a good idea to have so many different types. However if true pls ensure that the premium version is available in India.

Why do you want smaller and lighter? If you wanted smaller and lighter, you shouldn't be looking at phablets.

Samsung fans are strange.

Virtually unbreakable. More brands use plastic, even Apple is coming up with plastic iPhone. Plastic is rugged - high impact cases are made of them.

But the mega is 12mm shorter and 4mm narrower than the ultra z which is a lot when it comes pocketability.
(personally the 6.3" mega is too big for a phone but these devices cover the 6-7" space)
