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.

hello
I'm standing in front of a choice. I wonder if the three models. Specifically, the sony xperia j, xperia u and Gigabyte GSmart gs202. I depend mostly on performance (no delays when working on the system, browsing, etc). I do not play games. Each of these models has some advantages and disadvantages. Can I ask you to help you select a specific model above? Or do you have any other suggestions efficiently and in a similar price range?
Thanks in advance for your reply.

i wouldn't even consider Gsmart i've never even heard of it haha.
As for the other 2 choices, I personally would get xperia J because of it's aesthetic appeal, but performance wise, xperia u is better since it's got 2 cores as opposed to 1 of the former.
may i suggest xperia sola? it's basically the same as u but has floating touch and sd card compatibility... and it looks good and is cheap as well.
I'd say for looks, get J, for performance, get u If you want both looks and performance, get sola
thanks for your answer
Unfortunately, in Poland xperia sola is more expensive than a lot of xperia j, xperia u. Saw some videos where you can see that xperia j often ailing. That's why I decided to buy xperia u
THX and happy new year :silly:

Without the second thought go for xperia if u are nt worried about a 5 inch big screen form factor. Faster and better functionality.

Bear in mind you're asking this on XDA which is an Android (and Windows) development site. You're going to get answers biased in favour of the Xperia because most people on here love Android and hate iOS. To be honest though nobody can decide for you, there are far too many factors to take into account. It would be like asking someone 'what's the best colour' and expecting them to give you a definite answer.
Dont think much dude,close ur eyes and buy the xperia z mobile.
Go for comparing on mobile websites and see difference,.
any noob will not think about any mobile while thinking of xperia Z.
So buy Z and show ur richness...

Hi there!
My first answer: Xperia Z
My second answer: [can you root an iPhone 5?] Xperia Z
Oh and don't forget to click on THANKS.
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
Sorry, but I closed this thread. There are 2 threads devoted to questions about devices, please feel free to repost your question in one of these two threads: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1620179 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1846277
Thanks!
P.S. I would watch the commercials and pick the device solely based on which device had the best looking spokes person.
Simple question: new Nexus 4 or used Xperia Z (condition: noticeably used, but without big scratches, ~7/10)?
If you could, please write pros/cons. I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks.

Well with 13mp camera & 1920*1080 screen resolution u should obviously go with Xperia Z. But like u said its second hand please make sure it free from scratches and working properly.

If you want quick Android OS updates and vanilla user interface and lots of custom ROM development projects at XDA, then Nexus 4. But I've heard if the phone heats up regularly there is possible chance to get the backside cracked as its made of glass. Just enquire about it before purchasing.
Xperia Z has a good screen, good quality camera, nice UI, and also has the option for microSD card slot. And it also has great development support here at XDA. But only chose it, if the phone is in good state without any hardware faults or screen faults.
Phone Compare Link: GSM Arena
Also, in future please ask your questions in either one of the dedicated threads:

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
