Just check out the comparison photos by NZtechfreak - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446868

My Conclusion:

Outdoor

• Nokia 808 - quite dark and dull, the photo missing light source, overall is not sharp.
  
• Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - crazy sharp, a bit over sharpen but still under control, color is more warmer from others.
  
• Samsung Galaxy S4 - Colorless, too bright, whole sky is whiten out. Over exposure.
  
• Sony Xperia Z1 - I find it look the nicest actually, the color tone is much better than rest, well exposure.

Indoor

• Nokia 808 - Awesome, nothing to complain.
  
• Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - Quite ok also, but seems this time S4 is much sharpen.
  
• Samsung Galaxy S4 - Sharp, but color a bit cool.
  
• Sony Xperia Z1 - Weaknesses of Sony algorithm is out here! bad noise control, check the top left corner, the only show noise here. The worst output.

Summary

• Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - It might not win in all category, but it is the safer among all, no worried snapping in any condition.
  
• Nokia 808 - It never is my favor since launching, I not talk about the OS, but the camera itself, I know it had crazy great lossless digital zoom but I always find it photo a bit under expose when snap outdoor.
  
• Samsung Galaxy S 4 - Not my favor also as it always colorless, thanks Samsung fixed it under Note 3.
  
• Sony Xperia Z1 - As usual, Sony still cannot proper control it auto mode, I believe the tester snap at Auto Superior Mode, and I notice that indoor photo has been push up to ISO 1000, that why noise appear, where others only in between ISO 125 to ISO 160. Z1 is still an awesome camera if you know to manual control handle it, by the way it is the second company out lossless digital zoom. Zoom lover will like it.

Comparison with 5S was posted not long ago - http://www.eprice.com.hk/mobile/talk/4544/...eria-z1-review/

evilhomura89 Now I know why you feel not trusted also, and eprice is always Sony fans site.

Edit: I just read the user review, it seems the user play manual mode in night shoot, in this case it is really unfair if photo not shoot in same ISO if want play manual mode. I am going to by pass this user review then.

It is obvious the user pick the safer ISO range for Z1 (ISO-400) but pushing over limit for Note 3 (ISO-1000).

Lumia 1020 just overpriced. People play android or iOS more than WP

Sammy deny it.
After read the article, I also believe sammy cheat with overclock to get high score and use normal clock speed to save battery. So they get impressive high score and battery efficient.

no point denying it as there's hard evidence - http://www.anandtech.com/show/7187/looking...ions-galaxy-s-4

Managed to play around for 2 hours. I have to correct my previous statement.

The screen ppi is indeed much more superior than s3, its the color that s3 (super amoled) produce to me is much more better but hey, this is my personal view on it. My advice for those who is really concerns about the color reproduction that the Z1 produce would be to test a demo unit and see if you can live with it or not. As for me, I think I can live with it. Like I said earlier, its not bad, just not as good as super amoled.
The phone is indeed big, but I still manage to hold it with one hand without worrying that it might fell off. Just need to test out if I can slip this into my jeans or work pants for that matter and not going to be a discomfort to me.

According to Sony Malaysia only 1st batch come with dock in box(large box) limited to 1,000 units.

So far still no any news on which telco this device is going to be exclusive to right?  so slow!
