      jeetindia2, 22 Jan 2014Adding to what benjamin said about ZL's pros over Z, please... moreI'm trying to use ir blaster to save my AC to become a air cond remote,but when search for it,no Ac also,so i go learn signal from remote,also same,,not working even signal is learnt,not really functioning on the signal learn i guess

        Adding to what benjamin said about ZL's pros over Z, please note the following also.
        1. Big hidden difference is the screen. The screens are not the same. ZL screen is much brighter, contrast ratio is significantly more and specially the sunlight legibility is close to HTC one. Please go through review of both here in GSM arena and you will know.
        2. ZL has an IR bluster which can be easily programmed for any type of electronic device like TV, AC, DVD, SAtelite BOX so on. Z dont have this.Note this is a hardware and can not be downloaded.
        3. It has a dedicated camera shutter key, which Z dont have. It can be long pressed to start camera anytime without unlocking the screen. Thats what required when you need to capture something fast

        Although it was mainly its high compactness & high screen to phone ratio for which i love it & can use as regular usable phone.

Hands down the best phone I've owned so far. It's not waterproof but honestly who gives a shit.

                    I never saw any problem in my Sony Xperia ZL.

                          Sony Lover, 20 Jan 2014I am totally confused.Which one should I buy Sony Xperia Z ... more- I don't see the need for me to carry a water and dust proof phone.

                          - A very compact 5 inch phone. It's even smaller in dimensions as compared to the Samsung Galaxy S3 (4.8 inch)

                          - Cheaper than Xperia Z.

                          - ZL has a better very nice back cover. Very nice to hold on to your phone.

                          - ZL is not available in Singapore's telcos. Thus, I have seen people using Xperia Z, Z1, Z Ultra. And I hvae not seen anyone with a Xperia ZL, which is some kind of uniqueness since I'm using ZL.

                          - Great device for daily usage.

                          - Battery wise, it's best to bring an usb cable or charger. If not, switch off wi-fi and data when not in use.

                                      As for the camera, I've got to agree with you. I have to use 9mp for a longer ratio photo. Even though ZL camera is 13mp, I would say that it's not the best when compared among its fellow competitors.
                                      The images somehow lack the details and slightly blurry when just zoom in a little.

Ph... moreBtw i forgot to mention about the camera which is extremely pissed now the way it looks its cool but there is a compromise which im not ok at all tat is the superior auto mode is now at a max pixel of 9 oly are you kidding sony. Why are you doing dis it was much betta in 4.2.2 cuse tat tym t was 12 nw instead of 13 instead of optimising it you made it to 9 wats on sony mind i dont know now with this 9mp supr mode i took indoor pics and found out that it had more noises than b4 Superior 12mp.I am truly upset im just goin to continue for a couple of days to see whether der r ne updates for these bugs if sony arent sending dem im goin back to 4.2.2 they wer more godly.I will not compromise for looks cause my prime importance is batry nd performance.Hopefully sony sees this and gives a proper reply with an update.
