The Z2 and above series have metal unibody to protect the phone and the Z3 & Z3+ have adding the 4 corner bumpers to increase the shelter.

But Z5 is better for gaming because of better GPU. Also since the 810 is already fast enough, I think the difference between 810 and Exynos 7420 is trivial.

          don't get me wrong im an xperia z3+ user but i had a very difficulty to replace the cracked glass back on my z3+ and ofcourse i jhave just realized how important to have a removeable back cover on my phone.

              I would choose LG V10 since im coming from an Xperia z3+
              based on my experienced its very difficult when you dropped your phone with non removable glass back cover once it got cracked it will stays longer and that's not easy to replace.
              also i tried a demo unit of the Z5premium its very slippery as my xperiaz3+ since it got bigger its not more comfortable to hold its very prone to an accident (drop/sliding on my hands)
              and i believe the snapdaragon 808 is a better choice than snapdragon 810.

Z5 scores 62-65k without overheating, whole the G4 (808) manages only 50k. Also the V10 looks ugly, lacks stereo speakers. And since when is removable back an advantage? The Z5 offers better battery than V10. V10 is a huge gimmick. Stop promoting the V10 in this forum and irritating people here.

                          It is sooo simple, we are talking about phablets right? Wel then... almost every blog or tech site considers the Note series from Samsung being "THE" phablet, if we start from that we got this: premium looking phone, water resistant, the biggest battery (in a slim body) along with the best battery life, best camera, 4k display only when needed (awesome idea) and 200 GB of expandable, nothing but superior to the note 5.

                          If it's superior to the note 5, then, it's superior to all the others up to date.

                          4 GB of RAM? What for? My note 3 uses 3 GB of RAM with a SD800, the same amount as an 8 core galaxy s6? Can you see it now, people?

                              i am disappointed that Z5 only has 3 GB ram and no external battery. while the pics are good, they're not great. i expect more from such an expensive device. sony may have a hard time with this one.

                                the lg v10 does have a manual control for both camera and video recording.
                                plus the build quality is very solid and not slippery. unlike sony z5 premium is very slippery and very easy to got cracked the glass on the back once you dropped it on the floor cement(more chance to crack) and its difficult to replace it. unlike lg v10 you can change the cover anytime anywhere...
                                sony should learn from lg. lg did a phone with glass back before the lg optimus g.its not practical to have a glass back and not removable ...

                                  lg v10 has good 4gb of ram too.slimmer bezels, removable back and removeable battery. that finger print on the back is more easier and comfortable to use. that dual screen is very useful too.

                                  all in all lg nailed this battle for the phablet category.
