How is the audio recording in this Phone. I am looking to get a new phone. The recording in my Huawei Ascend Mate is hopeless, its sounds like a radio.
My friend has a NOTE(1) and the recording is amazing. It was sounding like a professional live recording. this was a quiet outdoors.
I play the guitar and sometimes I get some tunes in my head and I want to record it and all my past phones were really bad recording.
In my room with the fan nothing is audible I even tried the Huawie earphones but its still bad and lot of static.
But the NOTE of my friends records very clearly and you can hardly hear the fan sound in my room.
If the sound recording is good I would try and go for it though its way above what I would pay for a phone.

Also a second question Anyone know any other phone that has good audio recording(should have 720p display at least 1GB ram Preferable 2, quad core and a battery life atleast that of the Z2 or more.)
I tried searching the net for the best phones for audio recording and nothing shows up. Looks like people are not bothered about audio recording.
But I feel it is an issue its the reason why NOTE has such good recording. Because its supposed to record dictations I guess

    Ali, 11 May 2014There are some serious problem with X2. First there is an overheating issue. Second the camer... moreOnly when recording 4K videos over a very long period. The phone warns you and then shuts the camera down to cool off. Clever eh! I can't see the point of recording 4K videos, included as future proofing by Sony, when 99% of people do not have a 4K TV to play them back on! In general usage, the camera is stupendous and has no problems.

Who the hell wants to use their phone as a remote when I already have a remote control? If that is the only reason to buy a phone, suggest you don't but go buy a universal remote control instead and save yourself a lot of money! Duh.....!!

                    [deleted post]I don't have z1 and z1 has the worst screen I saw in my life after xperia z. It is accurate but the contrast is washed out and viewing angles ate pathetic. Z2 is a serious advancement in picture quality and contrast but z2 has a less accurate display.

                      [deleted post]I absolutely agree to you. The z2 has a great display . Just read my comment carefully. Just it is not accurate. A non accurate display doesn't mean display is bad. The display had vibrant colours. Just that's the reason for its being non accurate. See, natural colours look dull and the display is not so good. But I'd you increase the colours or the color gamut, the display pleases the eyes and looks better.

                      I am also saying the same. The display looks good. But that doesn't mean it is accurate.

                      I hope you understood me. Thanks for understanding.

                                  100% brightness is no need in Z2 and it is hairsplitting and a jealous opinion
                                  Z2 is more detail and amazing viewing angle
                                  If you curious to know about Z2, you will buy Z2 firstly
                                  Unless you have Z2 , you will comprehend Z2

I did not say z2 has a bad display. It's just not accurate than z1. Accurate colors and eye pleasing colours are different my friend. The display of z2 is indeed good. But it's not accurate as colour gamut is above 100%.

                                    If you do not know what color gamut is, don't reply and show that you don't know anything.
