I just ordered a Sony Z3 Compact. Battery life, small size and water resistance sealed the deal, and the low price didn't hurt. The performance of any of these three phones is more than adequate for my purposes, which are mainly e-mail, navigation, Web browsing and plain old phone calling. However, I carry my phone always and everywhere, so water resistance and durability are big for me. I've had issues with both Apple and Samsung products breaking in normal or even light use with a Samsung phone, with less-than-helpful customer service responses in both cases (though to be fair I've also had a couple of dicey experiences with Sony customer service for a computer). My new phone will wear a case from day 1, and along with the dust and waterproofing I hope this will make it last.

It has stamina mode and extended low battery.. It has been tested to stay for 1-2 days without charging.. And iphone can't do that.. Also powerbank is available for both devices so z3c has an edge..

They all have wins. Though I debate the useful of the "design"category where so many aspects are lumped into one big score.. kinda meaningless.

But Z3c's wins are where it counts, and its losses are minor:

Major wins:
-Water-resistance
-Battery life
-Expandable storage
-Price

Main lossses:
- Camera (still works just fine)
- Screen (still perfectly usable)
- Marketability (if this was your game you'd have already bought an iphone).

No question for me, Z3C by far the best balance, and gets things right that really make a difference.

Z3's camera & photography segments are not as unique as like in Alpha. Despite having my loyal support for Z3 compact, I must agree & admit, that overall camera performance of Samsung galaxy Alpha is much better than Z3 compact even after having its so called 21 mega pixel camera.

How many guys agree with me.

Daparagon, 19 Oct 2014Hey dude. The sony xperia z3 compact got a glass back vs iphone's aluminium back. Which one do... moreDragontail glass is actually the rear panel is so unlikely to crack compared to a conventional Gorilla glass used for front screens. Plus glass is better looking than aluminium, its funny how ifans loved the glass in the 4 & 4s but now they like the aluminium! I do have a good memory and they were mocking other phones with aluminium construction claiming its too heavy and will scratch easily.... well talking of scratching easily.....

It's a new method to keep others from peeking thru our phones when we enter PIN or Passwords or Patterns, etc... I'd still go for Knock code though. :)

As for the i phone 6 getting the best design, I dont think so, it's too big for one handed use and with the aluminium it will scratch plus them massive bezels.The Z3C should of won that test but there is a bit of biased reviews on GSM for a while now

It's only me who thinks that this would be perfect last year?

One Alpha with 4.3" 720p would be a better deal, and it's sucessor would be free to this 4.7" screen, but 1080p res.
Would Apple launch 5S and 5 Plus in this scenario?
