AnonD-116639, 25 Mar 2014because you have never bought a xperia device....you are just trolling.....my xperia Z1 compac... morePhone Arena have their own testing and said this about the Z1:

"Quite shockingly, the Xperia Z1 ranks last among top smartphones in its class scoring just 4 hours and 43 minutes of battery life on our test."

Nuff said.

My Note 2 can last longer with up to 7 hours of screen usage, with downloading over 1GB of torrents, over an 18 hours of usage.

Scott, 21 Mar 2014im an iphone user and im getting sick of people complaining about radio !! god download the ap... morethat's because your used to not having a radio on the iPhone. I have 8gb of music on my s2 and still want to discover new music via free radio not paid for streaming. you have summed up the mentality of Apple - products for people who dont want to think and are happy locked up in a padded cell oblivious to the freedom of the outside world. just like religeon. yes just load your favourite songs and play them over and over again ; )

So we are allowed to say what we prefer. Personally data usage is expensive in my country I'd also prefer a in built radio over streaming or extra devices. I'll keep my S2 until Samsung realises that.

sonny, 24 Mar 2014Z2 has Ominibalance design and water proof! Pencil input feature is better than s5* S5's cam... moreMy friend, it is a matter of choice. One likes Ferrari, the other one likes Lamborghini. Let me point out several aspects:
1. I am not planning to go swimming with my phone, would that be Z2 or S5 or whichever - although it is good to have some sort of protection.
2. I don't care about the heart sensor - still i DO NOT mind it.
3. Megapixels means QUANTITY of pixels - not QUALITY.
4. MHL3 serves for rich people to show off in front of their broke a*s friends with their 4K "SONY TV" :D (i do not own one, nor planning to - however, if you do, i salute you! ;) )
5. My previous S4 had an amazing noise cancelling, so i expect the same from the S5, if not better.
6. Once again, my friend, it is a matter of choice.

Take care! ;)

There are no perfect phone. Yes, i was a little disapoointed when i saw the official presentation and specs,bcoz there was a ton of roumors, but i still think Samsung will make somthing big this year. Either they will bring a Galaxy S5 with Exynos 64bit processor, or they will make a beast in Note 4.

For all people who dont have money to buy a high-end smartphone, go for Motorola Moto G.

- There are currently over 1 Thousand phones(models) in rotation currently throughout the world. For making it into the Legendary category of top phones; Apple and Samsung have gone through a long history of battle. They are amogst the most Elite along w/ other few models. There can always be a demand for upgrades. But giving this Elite phones the benefit of the doubt is only fair. I'm a Samsung phone, but will always respect other models in the Elite category.

- Jaguar(Iphone) vs Hummer H2(Samsung) - Well, even though Jaguar is a nice Luxury vehicle. I still would prefer to purchase the H2. Because its, what makes me happy. I'm just a Android/Galaxy person. I will always know Iphone is a great phone, just not for me.

If people are dumb enough to be brainwashed then anyone can brainwash them. What do you think about Apple? How do you think they keep selling that worthless phone to millions of Americans?
I ain't a Samsung fanboy, and never will be, but nor I am the person who will loathe Samsung for nothing. I use Samsung, for past five years I have been using them, so using them and then bashing them at the same time will be a disgrace of my character.
S5's design is horrible, same old same old, same boring old I should say. I never liked any Samsung's design after S2. Still I will pick S5 over Z2. Why? One reason is enough for me, and that's the super gorgeous S-AMOLED display. I don't care what people say, but literally nothing can beat that brilliant screen. If one has no care of a good display then there is no doubt that the Xperia will be a good choice over the S5.
PS : I am a huge Sony admirer by the way, always will be.
