Sony Xperia Z Ultra review: Thinking big

03 September 2013
With the Xperia Z Ultra, Sony is finally turning its attention towards a market segment it has avoided so far. The market headstart of their flagship Xperia Z along with the subsequent releases in the upper midrange has set quite a serious foundation...

      I'm a three-day old owner of this magnificent device. And a 6 year-old Samsung user. Its hard to compare the two but I must say that I have no regret for this device. Yes Samsung may have more features...but many of them you don't really use everyday. Take it from an S4 user. I loved the phablet size! Its like outgrowing the Samsung Mega. And the battery life is much more longer compare to S4. S4 usually heats up when used and I already have it fixed due to short circuit and battery problem. The Z ultra did a multi tasking for me but still in cool condition. Plus, when I upgraded the Z ultra to kitkat version, it was so good! The camera was enhanced so far. And I just downloaded more movies I can ever imagine. To be the best, a must have phone is this beautiful Sony device. The Z Ultra.

        I really like this device..i currently owns nokia 700, it is very compact and easy to use..i want to change ma phone..so the only compact phone in market was iphone..turning to android..i don't like samsung..so planning to take tablet..i saw z ultra..6.4" means a phablet..i can carry it easily..keeping my 700 along for calling..i don't think placing a tv in ear for calling...Overall my initial look if this device is good and i'm gonna take this device ASAP..i prefer black..it seems to me fair look in black

                    @ the monster - one more small point. why on earth are you on a sony forum when you are a samsung fanboy, is it because you really have the z ultra and not the s4 ? i wonder

                      AnonD-168700, 04 Sep 2013Your comment just shows what a troll you are. Saying the S4... moreDon't you dare call me a liar you troll, the only reason Samsung sell so many phones is because there brainwashed into it, my brothers didn't have a clue what to buy and so they bought the s4 but they certainly won't be buying anymore, the phones very poor, I've handled the phone and used it, it's total rubbish. You probably work for Samsung the way you're supporting them. The fact is the screen is rubbish, the shape is very odd, the materials very poor form of plastic and you certainly can't see the screen in any kind of sunlight at all. Carry on playing with your plastic toy. Oh yes go and google the extensive problems people are having with the S4, is it any wonder they're bringing out the S5 six months early.

                                  kalu, 11 Sep 2013Which one looks better..white,purple,or black..i actually l... moreDear Kalu, your loving colour -purple also is a fingerprints magnet, actually, you no need to worried about this product is fingerprints magnet or what, you can just stick one anti-fingerprints on the back panel.If you lazy or wanna to save money, I think you should go for white colour cause it is not magnet of fingerprints (back panel is white, our fingerprints are white colour, that's the fingerprints is invisible in white colour )

                                    After Note 3 release, is it Note 3 will beat ZUltra? In my opinion, NO! it can't! Although it's packs 3GB of ram, but it Still Suck!

                                      I have been using Xperia Z Ultra for a month now
                                      It is huge
                                      Experience: Wonderful
                                      Android Customization from Sony: Simple and great
                                      1. Homescreen is close to Vanilla Android
                                      2. Apps like Album, Movies and Walkman are amazing
                                      3. Walkman is a great app, but Google Play Music is no less
                                      4. Camera app is great. it has many options
                                      5. Vodafone India activated two month Unlimited 3G downloads for me
                                      6. Themes are cool and great
                                      7. Triluminos Display is crisp and clear
                                      8. Sound is OK
                                      9. Camera quality was good. Low light camera quality was also good
                                      10. Battery life can be increased using STAMINA mode. This really boosts the standby hours
                                      11. Performance is smooth and buttery
                                      12. Slim and very comfortable to hold
                                      13. Use the phone in landscape mode, as the beezels in top and bottom will help a lot
