if u have money.better choose Z.actually first i'm interested in ZL..but i dont know,i'm getting z.have been used it from 14/3...so far i think this is the best smartphone i ever have...everything is fine.fast....no prob at all...but bare in mind not everything perfect...so the thing thats make xperiz z not perfect is :

1) the quality of speaker.average quality.(guess because it's waterproof)

2) fast to get hot (the processor is quad-core)

3) the camera (the sensor is best but camera software from sony not really good) for the camera Iphone did a great job even using exmor r instead of sony use exmor RS.

and the best part is what i love about this phone i wash it everyday.this is the first ever in my life i wash my electronic device everyday with axion.  thumbup.gif

The problem u list above will not happen in ZL right. Cos never heard ppl complain wif ZL. I hope can hear more problems wif ZL then i can compare but somehow ZL seem like so perfect cos nobody talk about the bad

Number of ZL users so few n naturally you will hear less problems vs Z users
Basing on user opinion is inaccurate as product defect depend on luck too during purchase

That's weird, you set it to "Always" right? Did you install any other battery management software that could cause such problem?

Sony should listen to us and upgrade they camera to less post processiong and produce better details.
Just like HTC did for HTC one this morning.

Like what others had said, depends on your budget, if the few hundreds is a lot to you, ZL will be a better bargain for having most of the important specs and features. Color-wise, the ZL white looks much nicer and elegant than black. The plastic pattern at the back of the black 'exacerbates' the plastic-ness of the phone. Give that same Samsung's plasticky feel in Galaxy Nexus. The smooth back of the white compliments nicely with the silver Xperia logo, giving the same high quality plastic feel like those Lumia phones. In fact, I like the white ZL more than the black Z but I picked the Z over ZL because i'm constantly exposed to "water-danger" area and i really dislike some of the asymmetry and almost afterthought design elements of ZL, really deal breakers for me.

The micro USB is the worst offender, its ugly and not centered, and bulge on all the wrong places. doh.gif

The sim opening at the back really spoils the cleanness of the design, i don't understand how they can do it in Z and thinner some more. Almost felt as if the top SONY fella instructed the designer to make it look crappy after they completed the design because its cheaper. Looks worst in black. rclxub.gif

I think his power button problem is an isolated case as I didn't hear anyone else having it, and my power button is fine

What are your priorities? If you care more about bling and showing off like dunking your phone for no reason into a bowl of water and such by all means go with the Z if you don't mind paying for extra. I'm choosing the ZL because it's smaller so it fits better in pockets, and the curved textured rubber back offers better ergonomics and just feels more comfortable to hold and those annoying flaps mandatory to make Z watertight going to get loose or broken in few months, I just can't live with that.

I like the way my Z looks, truly a classy looking phone.

Very comfortable for my hands, and does everything I need it to do. The water resistant bit, as well as the dust proof bit is a pretty sweet deal that should be included for every premium class phone and I'm glad it's there. I don't want a smaller phone, or I would have stuck with my older Nokia or SE phones.

It's all to do with personal preference.

I personally find the white Z to look like crap. And the ZL's shape, camera/microsim placement completely unacceptable.

The first problem is more of an OCD problem than anything else laugh.gif

The second one is quite a bother but who look at the back of the phone all the time? wink.gif

Oh another reason I chose ZL is the loudspeaker performance is excellent since anyone being harping about low volume on the Z, that is one thing I can't stand at all because I HATE bad speaker and low volume because tons of cheap laptops nowadays come with a speaker resembles a mouse try to squeak. With big display and good speaker I put tons of movies on it and watch it on the go biggrin.gif

It's all self preferences, there are no perfect devices so live with some sacrifice to gain another.
