    Anonymous, 27 Mar 2013I agree we can not judge the phone only for its design, but... morefrom the peiple comments u already knew xz battery life and over heat problem, but i wonder why u didnt know the answer because its already answered from many people here.

    Im agree site like GA, PA, MR etc is a good source for review, but for me i cant believe 100%, i always looking for reviews from users , real users and friends hat already own it for a lot enough times.
    I didnt own this phone yet but from their reviews i just knew that :
    - screen not grayish because status bar grayblack, not full black
    - camera result is really great, really differ so much compared to site reviews
    - battery is good after some power cycling
    - sound is great and clear with headset, but not doing good on speaker.
    - the phone never overheat, still acceptable compared to other fone and located only in small area
    - and many more

    I dont want talk much about Samsung here because this news is about xz, but i sure many people knew why and when it gaining momentum and popularity.

    And last, for the feature of s4 im agree airview, hover and other feature using same tech are uaeful, but say no for "dual" and "smart" thing

      Anonymous, 27 Mar 2013I agree we can not judge the phone only for its design, but... moreOh come on~
      Like you said people get bored with the phone design after a few weeks...
      How about looking at the same SGS3 design for almost a year?
      Then it's extremely bored to look at SGS4 on the first sight~
      Clearly no innovation in design for Sammy...
      People don't care about design?
      Sorry bro~
      I think you don't know what is design...
      Please compare the two water-proof phones below~
      Which one is nicer?
      http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_acro_s-4781.php
      http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_rugby_pro_i547-5019.php
      Sammy is really known for copying~
      The "new air technology" is actually known as "Floating Touch" came out in Sony Xperia Sola a year ago...
      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FK8w94e9zVw
      So~
      Actually what's new in SGS4?
      From the front view of the phone~
      You can see there's another extra "Black dot" near the camera compare to SGS3 (Sensor maybe)...
      Here we can guess the next SGS5 design~
      Another extra dot on the front...==
      And also the so called "Octa-core"~
      It's actually TWO Quad-core...
      Can you list out any of the apps that need to use 8 cores all together at a time?
      The apps till date only use a maximum of 4 cores~
      Generally only Quad-core chip is used at all times and the other chip is only for power management...
      Talking about power management~
      SONY Xperia Z also has stamina mode which improve the battery life...
      SONY can make their own software and don't need to waste another processor chip to do the job~
      How about Sammy the "environment-friendly"?
      Have you seen all the updated reviews?
      Many reviews say that SONY Xperia Z's battery life improved day by day after a few cycle charging~
      And the heating is also caused by the processor chip...

          AnonD-69171, 27 Mar 2013I agree we can not judge the phone only for its design, but... moreI agree we can not judge the phone only for its design, but XZ design really innovative for sure, for its omnibalance concept, full glasses, and the most insane thing is it all packed with dustproof and waterproof capability for a super thin body.
          How do you know S4 had better camera and battery life ? its still not available , we only can watch it from web review , for me, i'm prefer users reviews .

          I'm prefer XZ than S4 because i already knew its camera, video recording, sound, and display quality because i'm a multimedia lover, and its design + waterproof capabilty make me really fall in love. What XZ lacks to S4 ? Really, its only for its processor and for me it doesnt really matter, XZ already too overkill with its spec. And i knew S4 packing more features but half of that only a gimmicks.
          Choosing a phone just like choosing "life companion" , i prefer for a beauty, charming, entertain and always accompany me anywhere, any conditions although she is not smartest at her class, than the smartest one but ugly and boring.

          the evidence is from professional web reviews such as gsmarena, PA, and other websites... and they are a better reliable source of finding information about a phone, than any individual fanboys such as yourself or me, who could lie about anything because people love there phone too much even if its bad. Look at how many people who owns the ZX and complaining about battery life and over heating in the comment section? i see soo many allready.

          Why do u think samsung sells soo many phones? because of there good features aswell as everybody basic needs such as sdCARD slot, removable battery and 1 of the best software support. People dont care too much about design, sure its nice to have but it will get boring after a few weeks, and people will end up putting pretty plastic covers. Its what the phone does especially in features and camera quality that sells the most.

          And yes processor is important because u know its more future proof and less lagg with more heavy apps being used, and your also paying good money for 2012 specs.

          What you mainly care about is design and beauty like your phone is your girlfriend... me... i prefer a phone that gets the best software updates, over all user experience, great camera and fun usefull features such as air gestures, air view and split screen.

                      AnonD-128245, 27 Mar 2013will it stop download something when standby (stamina mode on)nope it wont. even if you have some apps on the notification bar it might not stop it automatically but it will give a notification to quit those apps instead.

                            was waiting for S4 but as usual a crap design, with no inovation at all, damn it we dont need octa core in a phone we are not operating a space ship with our smartphone, will sale my S3 tomorrow to get this piece of art. for me Samsung was done after S2 but kept my brand loyality and stuck to S3 which is the stupidist designed smart phone ever. Its time to move on. Good bye sammy, hope you find a good designer
