Which one to Buy?? s4 or xperia zr or xperia z ultra - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys!
I'm planning to buy a new phone in november as my xperia neo v celebrated its 2nd b'day recently I'm very confused whether I should buy samsung S4 or Xperia ZR or Xperia Ultra...I've never used samsung and to be true I'm not that big fan of all the bloatware they stuff into the phones. But again, samsung phones are more perked than any other running same android version Xperias are water proof, bravia engine and s4 has that beautiful lockscreen...I want to use the new phone for atleast two years, always running on latest android version available..(I was so mad when sony declared 'no jelly bean' for neo v:silly: )please let me know your views about these phones and help me choose..

Please ask this question in either of these two stickied threads:

Hi all! I have a budget of 200-230€ and i want to buy the best smartphone i can buy with this money... So i looked this phones: Xperia U,Xperia Neo,Xperia Ray,Xperia Arc S or Galaxy W. I want to ask at all the community wich smartphone is the best between those,or if there's any other better phone that costs the budget i have!
Sorry for my bad english but i'm italian
Thanks at all! :victory:
Up?
For me I will skip Xperia Neo n Ray( I bought a Neo V but now a bit regret)
Xperia U got the largest user accessible memory which allow u to install a lot of apps compared to others phone( but sad with its smallest screen)(+maybe upgradeable to jelly bean!)
I tried Galaxy W n found out it is really smooth( unfortunately no ICS)
Xperia Arc S is my choice because it's large screen,perfect design,high performance processor.

helpppppp

hi , i have finally saved enough money to buy unlocked either xperia z or galaxy s4 , i have researched on gsm arena, cnet etc websites and all of them say the galaxy s4 has some good hardware and features and xperia z has awesome design but less features , i currently want the phone with the most developer support for custom roms and stuff , the problem is the galaxy s4's variant with quadcore is available here , can any person who has used both phones recommend which one is better ? no fanboyism please thanks :highfive:
I would take xperia z
Reasons
Snapdragon based... So sources are available and thus developer friendly..
Awesome looks
Water proof so u don't have to worry abt rains or toilets or tubs
Regarding s4 octa core...
Poor developer support... No sources... And belive me 8cores dun work SIMULTANEOUSLY
regarding quad core variant... A bit similar to xperia z ... And again snapdragon so MAY get good support...
My pick xperia z ...
http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/reviews/...galaxy-s4-vs-sony-xperia-z-comparison-review/ says the battery is same but users here claim s4 has more battery life ? , tbh it doesnt bother me much even if XZ has a bit less battery life i think i will go with the xperia z thanks for the quick reply anyway.
Xperia z ftw! Simply because Sony is way more supportive to developers than any other oem out there

I bought the Arc s as in my opinion its the most stylish phone and good specs for my needs.
I was going to upgrade to the Z but it does not have a removable battery.
What happens if it freezes

P.S. I would watch the commercials and pick the device solely based on which device had the best looking spokes person.

The Z3 is an incremental change from the Z2 when it comes to specs, and has a physical redesign. Compared to the Xperia Z though, it's a much better phone. Better camera, much better specs, far better screen (IPS LCD vs TFT). The Z is still a very capable phone though, so it's up to you if you actually need the upgrade or not.

The answer is clear: Moto G, 4G LTE version from 2013 or you can buy 2014 version but it doesnt have 4G for now. maybe later Motorola will release a 2014 4G LTE version of Moto G.
Quad core CPU, Android Lollipop 5.0 update granted for this year, HD display, 4.5" on 2013 and 5" on 2014 version plus stereo speakers on 2014, highly customizable with Moto shells with a lot of colors, great cameras on 2014 version, and it costs 179$ for 8GB and 199$ for 16gb plus SD slot on 4G version and 2014 version. What else do you need? :good:

Nice phones, but are they in your budget?
The Xperia Z is a really nice phone too, slightly better than the ZR, and almost the same price. Check that out too. Plus, now that the Nexus 6 has come, the prices of the Nexus 5 might have fallen, and that's an amazing phone as well.
If your budget is closer to the Moto G range, the best phones, in my opinion, are the Moto G (any version, really), Xperia E3, and the ASUS ZenFone 5. Not sure if any of these has LTE, though.
Also, in the range between these is the first-generation Moto X - also a pretty amazing phone.
thank you dude and you mean to say sony xperia Z out does ZR ??

Not sure if actually budget in the US, ($199 on a 2 year contract) check out the HTC desire eye. Don't go with sony unless you go with the equal of the Z range. I'm speaking from experience (Xperia Tipo, Xperia U, Xperia Jlo)
Otherwise, check out motorola or even an older Nexus will do.
If you would check nexus 5, check lg g2 - It's price is similiar, but better than n5 in some aspects. Xperia z is an older phone, but I guess it would do ok too, same goes for zr
If you want something cheaper, then there is a big choice in the mid-range - moto g lte as mentioned before, Lg f60, f70 and f90 should be a good choice too, also g3 s and g2 mini. Htc one mini 2, desire 816, maybe desire 610.
As for sony, there's xperia e3, c3.
C3
