Same goes to DiGi too. They pulled out Nexus 4 around mid of this year.
I saw Nexus 4 costs only RM499 if we sign 2 years contract with DiGi.

Beware of Sony, the uprising superstar of Android.
Xperia Z, Z1 and Z Ultra made Sony so famous now.

Big screen, S-Pen, go for Note 3.
One hand handle, fast OS updates, go for Nexus 5.

Both is awesome phone in market now.
*
I was really into XZ1 before N5 came out. Now I'm in a dilemma on which to
choose.

Why I like XZ1: Processor, premium feel design, cam
Why I like N5: Processor, OS updates, cheap

Since I'll only get a phone on Jan, XZ1 AP set would probably drop to RM16xx whereas N5 will just arrive in Malaysia. 32gb N5 by then would be RM16xx I think?

So more or less the same. Can u give me some opinions please?

I was in the same boat as you before,but the xz1's screen is a huge turn off. Sure some people got units with perfect screens, but some people also got bad screens which has no purpose in a high end phone. Other than that they are pretty equal,the xz1 has the better hardware while the n5 has the better software.
*
Why turn off? If you mean the viewing angles of the phone, then I'm totally fine with it. Who would actually view the screen at an awkward angle?

The viewing angles are not much of a problem,it's the high black levels + yellowish whites that i can't stand.

Ohh. Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the yellowish screen is only a problem for the earlier batch of phones?

QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Nov 3 2013, 06:08 PM)
my opinion, since i own Z1, but i like the nexus 5 as well. will get it if i haven't own Z1 now tongue.gif

XZ1

pros-
better camera, especially night shooting, and if you like manual settings
better build material (glass + aluminium)
waterproof
bigger battery - 3000mah
microsd expansion slot

cons-
questionable screen quality, it's either u like it or u hate it
more expensive as of now (price will probably fall to around 1.8 - 1.9k when nexus 5 reach msia)
software updates will not be as good as nexus
nexus 5

pros-
it's a nexus, updates are none of your worries
very worth it for the price, same internal as XZ1 (snapdragon 800)
camera with OIS

cons-
camera may not be as good as XZ1 when comes to night scenes and manual settings
much smaller battery despite same internal as Z1 (2330mah vs 3000mah)
no expansion card slot(normal for nexus anyway)

starting time before i own the phone i do hate the large bezels as well. but after owning the phone i do feel the large bezel help when handling the phone in landscape mode
*
actually i think i can live with the thick bezels unsure.gif but Z1 attracts me mainly coz of the design/premium feel.
Z1 ap set is 17xx currently, will drop 100-200 probably when nexus 5 arrives
i might be going to aussie this jan. some forummers said its RM1350 (after conversion) for 32gb. quite a steal leh. so now i'm freaking undecided cry.gif
