Definitely ZL hehe. Dont need whatever proofing as all those flaps are annoying lol, and matte back much nicer than glass back imo. Bezel also barely there which makes the phone even smaller than s3!!2MP vs 2.2MP front facing camera is not really a strong point to argue about lol. But this is me la, others might like Z if they want the IP57 rating smile.gif

Million Percent confirm Xperia Z. smile.gif elegance phone.

which is better overall ? LG Optimus Pro G or Xperia Z ? hmm.gif
LG have 1.7 GHz CPU sweat.gif

is it G Pro or Pro G ? tongue.gif
*
LG Optimus G Pro higher clock CPU at 1.7Ghz where Xperia Z is 1.5Ghz, means it run slighly faster.
It have much higher 3000mAh capacity battery which is a pros here.

But beside all this, LG Optimus G Pro design less elegance feel, and no waterproof & dust-proof.

End up, I still prefer solid elegance look of Xperia Z. smile.gif

agree
the only way to capture the market is to launch earlier so that those who are waiting will not wait
it is the same strategy adopted by Samsung to convert those iphone users
and with Samsung's aggressive the similar phone will lose out.
and bear in mind that Samsung's spec is never a slouch too
*
Ya, human easier change mind, if something even better out, what for still ops for it.

Samsung so success not means it product is superb, it was because great on advertising and release ASAP once announcing.

Any product once announced, need to sell it ASAP.

their product is not superb, but usually top notch during their launch. this undeniable apart from the plasticky design
and last year, they managed to launch s3 in Msia within a month after announcement
*
Ya, correct, but in actual experience, it never was. S III 1GB international version is kind of not smooth, similar product One X or One X+ is smooth just crap battery and I don't like it design include their Sense interface.

But not denied Samsung never release smooth phone much. Until now the only consider really smooth was Note II that is 2GB phone, maybe S III 2GB LTE also smooth - this I not sure as I never try before.

agreed on the TW launcher on S3.... it sucks in terms of smoothness.... its so bad that it will kill the home launcher when mem is low
but apart from that, the camera. the batt. and it was the fastest proc untill S4 pro got released

anyway, i think other players have catched up including Sony.... a good thing for us consumer  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif
the phone i hate the most now. HTC!

Ya, this was great, at least I can leaving Samsung, Samsung having high spec but bad software developed team.

My personal opinion , I prefer 1st HTC Products, 2nd Sony and 3rd Samsung..
I been using HTC products since year 2009, my first HTC Sensation and Now HTC ONE X, even tho I also using S3 which not that smooth as HTC ( my own opinion). Just waiting for Xperia Z /ZL to see how its performing when it out in Market..
*
I agree on that, my friend was using One X, it was really smooth a lot than Samsung in stock launcher.

What i dislike on HTC was it battery and I really don't like it sense interface. Too cartoon in my opinion, I more prefer simplicity.

I beg to differ. The HTC One X apps drawer is jerky not smooth at all vs Samsung S3/Note 2 apps drawer. HTC sense homescreen UI is slight  smoother than Samsung Touch Wiz. HOX+ similarly too though the jerkyness is improved in the apps drawer
I don't like HTC Sense, Samsung TW UI, Xperia Arc UI too and always replace all of it with Nova
*
Haha! Actually Nova or Apex was better so far.

App Drawer I can't remember much on One X, he is using One X+ now as changing seems FOC for him due to SingTel contract. I know is what you said main launcher was smooth.

BUT ... I hate HTC Sense interface. It too fancy and too cartoon.

wat the function of the dock? Just able to charge without conect cable?

You can just slot in and charge, much easier than opening up the seal microSD slot to put in charger.

yes, shatterproof sheet 2 protect the glass from shattering
but the sheet is not scratch resistance, only the glass beneath is scratch resistance
if the sheet is scratched just remove it

i think the video is a bit bias, bcauz they didn't test on the screen after removing the sheet
thn furthermore didn't mention anything about oleophobic coating wear out
n set the brightness too low just to purposely show the reflection of finger print

bcauz on my xperia if the brightness is being set at 30% u can't see any finger print reflection
unless u turn off the screen  sad.gif

c video below
http://youtu.be/KPRD_iCQG5c?t=2m45s

The video do a bit biaz, but my concern was, if the Xperia Z really print the SONY logo at that stupid shattering sheet, then... big issue once remove it.

and I am the person SUPERB DUPERB HATE screen protector, this shatterproof sheet is a kind of it as well.... hmmm..
