contemplating that oso  tongue.gif

3 factors i'm considering, camera performance, loudspeaker and battery life

p.s. i have no issue with the viewing angle of my XPZ, so not an issue for me  blush.gif
*
camera performance is a must. seeing the zoom from sample picture, it would be great.
loudspeaker, hope the dedicated walkman chip does it work. some more the large grill, i hope the sound would be the best.
battery life im actually doubting it would last long. even now my Z already eating battery life, being lasting for 1.5 day. later with 3000mAh, plus the 1080p screen, it would maximum go for 2-3 days in long term. that is being a heavy user like me.

viewing angle is no problem, like Z before, this is an early firmware. later on sony will improve like the current Z firmware, where everything has almost achieve perfection. smile.gif

Don't people get tired of talking about viewing angles of the screen?

Who will benefit from good viewing angles from the side?
Your buddies?
Will they enjoy watching the screen sideways at the wrong angles?
Ask yourself, do you actually view your phone screen sideways for 3 seconds or more and keep it that way?
Or view from the bottom?
Or view the top?

OF COURSE NOT!
You hold it straight to your face!

the answer to your question
people wanting to watch prawn together. hehe

price differ so much leh.

Of course Z1 la.

If u bring out s4 zoom, I think I will laugh at u.  laugh.gif
*
hehe.. but i actually also think, who would buy it?
the back is too heavy due to the camera-like design.

QUOTE(jloi @ Sep 11 2013, 11:03 AM)
Personally tested with S4 zoom and dislike the jpeg quality + colors. And the aperture is slow f3.2
the only advantage over Z1 is the ability for optical zoom  whistling.gif

i see..


QUOTE(ckchan @ Sep 11 2013, 11:06 AM)
yeah... looks like ip5c gonna replace ip5, but with "cheaper" plastic material. and yet gonna sell it at a price just like ip5 initial launch price...

and the ip5s gonna be the real "premium" model, gonna sell it at even higher price than all other previous ip model...
*
saw the price too, and was quite surprised they dare to put hefty price for a plastic phone(karma is it?)
how can it be said as a "low budget" when it's that high?

5s i can understand with additional features inside but as we know, iphone do have high price tag..
even now i just saw apple malaysia site, they have removed all traces of iphone 5. only left with ip4s with 1499 price tag..

QUOTE(neo0915 @ Sep 11 2013, 11:57 AM)
Need more night photo sample to really see how really Z1's camera performs...
*
i do agree to you..
night shots are somehow less in all pictures taken..

wat if the phone itself defected? and cause water to leak in@@

that would only work for 7 days 1 to 1 replacement.
if after 7 days, they still would consider void.

I think got people post before, anyway more and more such video will popping out showing how bad the display use in Z1.

It not only look bad in different viewing angle, it even can't fight with others panel in straight view.
*
but it was the same as Z right, viewing angle was an issue..
later then firmware update it changes a lot..

No flash - not important to me, I never use flash for mobile photo taken, never ever use before.

The touchscreen is not too over sensitive during use, but it is when not in use, like water dropping or screen to dirt, it will automatically registered as input for you.
*
that would not be suitable for me.. sad.gif
even reading about Z1, a bit down on the display. not up to par.
from my original plan to trade in my z, now already thinking twice
