Nowadays, SONY does not carry or sell ZL anymore...need to go to those normal phone shops to purchase. OK lah...will wait for Galaxy S5. I feel SONY has lots of gimmicks....claim ERMOR camera 13 Mega pix but cannot compete with 8 Mega pixel out there. Even the Bravia Engine is a let down from diff. viewing angles.

Xperia .....gimmicks? Actually no, compared to Samsung. Its Samsung that's king of gimmicks.

Yes the camera was so-so that I have to agree but other areas are pretty good. Don't understand the complain on viewing angles, I am pretty satisfied with my XZ and view angle is fine 45deg left and 45deg right - with not much colour shift. Maybe it's becos i like to look at my phone within that angle ....... I also prefer the screen colours saturation compared to Samsung - Samsung is like cartoon where XZ is more natural. The xperia launcher is also way ahead of touchwiz. Xperia launcher is functional and quite elegant where as the touchwiz is like loud and LOUD. Look at the native sms app in samsung - yuks.

Anyway the above is just my view, to each his own. I was considering the XZ and S4 and in the end the XZ works better for me both hardware and software.

You have convinced me...think I will try the ZL....just now, I saw the C version...so so...RM999

I wanted to go for Z1 but the incoming call ringtone is soft compared to ZL, think it's the IP rating

Guys, how to upgrade to 4.3 on SONY phones like Z or ZL...over the air??? Safe?

Any tough casing for ZL like otter box,...kindly recommend.

Also, for ZL, what are the main issues...so far???

Don't let me just convince you. Get one that suit you best. Some people find smart stay, smart play etc useful, some also like the screen with colour "pop" etc. Whichever you choose, all the best. Also don't forget to include the Nexus 4/5
