            AnonD-316798, 09 Oct 2014Ya im deals with z3...n still fact is Z3 is far better then... moreyes sony and Samsung phones are good just in theory and on the paper.but in face to face competition they have no word against htc in softness and quality.i tell an ex that I said before.
            "if more cpu or ram mean better phone .how htc one M7 won the 2013 best mobile ,best design and in europ the best gadget in 2013???(best gadget in T3 site)
            if more cpu in sony cause to softness or .... how z1 and z ultra and z1 compact loose to one M7???? so htc with one M7 proved that more cpu or ram or screen or .... don't mean better and faster.drop the coin??? it's too hard to explain reality for you.because sony fans are equal to Samsung fans and very fanatic person in acceptation the reality.
            please don't ignore one M7 against z1,z,zultracompact or.... ! one M7 would teach you that I said.don't ignore please.bye :D

              darkraver, 08 Oct 2014I shall repeat very slowly: ...z2...is...better...phone...... morevery laughable.and how about z1 and one M7? in your opinion z1 is better but all of us saw one M7 won the crown of 2013 in best mobile and design.
              and now you tell z2 and z3 are better!!!!!! because you think they have more ram or....!!!!!!!! if you are right why one M7 squashes z1???????
              I tell yo an ex,and now I promise you that M8 is far better than z2 and z3.with no doubt.bigger or more cpu and hardware don't mean that phone is better. they only cheats many baby like you.samsung does it too....
              at the end thank you for your good joke.

                  Who gives a crap about i-phone 6 or S5, I'm highly satisfied with my Z2 which is enough to beat the crap out of the two junks (i-crap 6/ shameless S5).

                          Its not true at all.

                          May be There are two reasons behind that
                          Assassins creed identity

                          1 - This game is not launched worldwide , because its still under development
                          That's why its only available at new Zealand or what app store .
                          They are fixing bugs .

                          2 - iOS 8.0.2 is buggy some how , iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1.2 was beast
                          Ios 8.1 is coming this month for fixing bugs.

                          Otherwise forget about iphone6 , even iphone 5s never lagged on ios7.1.2



                          I m not apple fan , up to now I never bought any apple device .

                          Here in my country India

                          S5 is cheapest , than Lg g3,M8,Z2 priced same .
                          While iPhone 5s is in Z2,M8 range .

                          And iphone6 , Z3 are almost same priced

                            Don't Buy a Sony Xperia Z series phones those which are not have a corning gorilla glass. The touch has hairline crack in many of the z series displays, while in a normal use. If you need to change them it will be around 9000 INR because you cannot change the touch digitizer without the LCD.
                            I personally lost my phone due to this hairline crack on touch digitizer just expiry of warranty.

                            See the proof:

                                So I am guessing you really havent even held the Z3 in your hands before posting this "analysis" of yours...

                                  Status window and app window opens instantly just like on IOS, it is just that fluid and responsive

                                  Iphone6 lags like hell when pushed to limits, due to its 1 gb ram
                                  http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xsxgE058rrI

                                  Build is miles ahead of iphone6, and s5...

                                  Video recording is ahead of iphone6+ with IOS, better stabilization all the way...
                                  S5 video is not worth even mentioning

                                  Z3 in manual mode makes best shots overall on a phone, but I guess to some it is arguable yes, yet facts show
                                  But videorecording is not...

                                  Z3 screen toped 700 nits so it is brighter than iphone6 and s5

                                  I dont know why there where you are z3 is that expensive, but where I am it is even cheaper than 6 month older galaxy s5, even cheaper than m8 and lg g3, and about 300$ cheaper than iphone6...

                                  You are right about the price drop and value of iphone, I cant even comprehend why that is so...
                                  But it definitely doesnt make it the best phone for it...only most overpriced lag phone....

                                  So I conclude you are actually only an apple fan...
                                  Which is all right but claiming to be objective in comparing you can not be... ;-)

                                    darkraver, 10 Oct 2014I also have friends with m7 and m8.... So I can tell you s... moreconsidering the price of z3 , its 49k in india , while iphone 6 is 53k , so price of z3 and iphone6 is almost same , while galaxy s5 is much cheaper at 35k.
                                    u can install cm11 rom on s5 and than it wil be fast and smooth .

                                    ui is personal opinion , and I found iphone 6 is best , simple and amazing , u can see how super fluid it is , notification and control tower and all things is so smooth , and no one android phone come close ,
                                    in terms of gaming , ios is best ,with metal gaming and best fps ever ,

                                    browsing experience is also better on ios ,
                                    each and every ANDROID phone always lags , when it comes to zooming in and out .iphone is much fluid

                                    sony give 21mp sensor , but quality is not that good as iphone6 and galaxy s5 ,
                                    also video recording is best on iphone6


                                    display of xperia z3 is best ?
                                    display of z3 looks a cheaper colours lot like their midranger xperia t3 , t2 ultra etc.

                                    in real life , iphone 6 , 5s display are best attractive display and best brightness , iphone 6 having 3.8 score on the sunlight visibility test .


                                    also iphone 6 is iphone , its having its own standard , and everyone will be jealous on u if u have iphone 6 , its good to show of , apple is more reliable , having best service centre as u know , while sony service is worst.




                                    I bet u , re sell value of iphone 6 will be much more compared to xperia z3 .

                                    in india , iphone 6 is available at 53k ,
                                    I bet u , price will remain same , untill iphone 6s come out next year .


                                    so considering price
                                    while this isnot in case of z3 , it was launched at 49.9k about 10 days ago ,
                                    but in just 10 days , price drops to 48k
                                    next month it will be 45k , in early 2015 , it will be under 38k haha ,

                                    if u sell ur iphone 6 after year , u will get 35-38k ,
                                    but if u sell ur z3 after 1year , u will get 20k haha


                                    currently moto X frustrated android user ,
                                    in next 2 month , I will get new phone ,
                                    I think iphone 6 is best for me ,
                                    galaxy s5 (will install custom rom) if budget is low at 35k

                                      AnonD-12498, 09 Oct 2014Today I used Z3 for 30 min. And here is my opinion. Soun... moreThe displays of sony phones are CORRECT! Not washed out. There quite the difference. Sammy AMOLED is not correct, it is over saturated and not compatible with any content. Even any and all websites uses sRGB color space.

                                      4K recording is a option, for those having a 4K TV or oplanning to buy a 4K TV. It is not obligated to record video in 4K.

                                      UI, change it with new launcher. Boom!

                                      Conclusion:
                                      You are a samsung fanboy that does not know how colors actually look like in reality. You prefer laggy and dated UI and not optimal battery life.

                                      About waterproofing and idiocy. Idiots does not recognise that if dirt comes in betwen the ports and the cover it can cause water to come through. It needs to be cleaned regularly otherwise that will lead to leakage. This is informed on a note that comes with all waterproof sony smartphones.

                                      Also this is written:
                                      "In compliance with IP65 and IP68, the Xperia Z3 is protected against the ingress of dust and is waterproof. Provided that all ports and covers are firmly closed, the phone is (1) dust tight and (2) protected against low pressure jets of water from all practicable directions in compliance with IP65; and/or (3) can be kept under 1.5 m of fresh water for up to 30 minutes in compliance with IP68"

                                        i think Sony should include spare flaps along with the phone. it's very easy to replace it if only a spare was available...
