AnonD-526167, 14 Apr 2016I am choosing between the iPhone SE and the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. I have always had iPhones ... moreHaving used the Z3 compact for almost 1 year, I can confirm that it is a really great phone. The screen is 4,6" and actually much bigger than the Iphone SE/5S - but in a body of similar size due to lower top/bottom bezels. Camera is good, battery life excellent, headphone sound is good, dedicated camera button for fast start-up/focus (use that a lot), SD card etc. I have only used the Z5 compact in shops, but it should be similar experience to the Z3 compact.
I expect to upgrade to the Xperia X-line this summer, but mainly because I like the full-metal body design and to some extent the internal storage of 32 GB storage.

Huge disappointment! I had this phone for few months in which it was serviced twice for poor battery performance, excessive heating and display light leak. The problems persisted (excluding light leak) and this phone is retired last week from my use. Now happy with Samsung Galaxy S7. It tells a lot that even my previous Galaxy S4 performed better than this glass-sandwich!

In future I may Skip Z5 Series and would go for X series hope Z3 will not Disappoint me... :)
Peace, God bless you, God Bless this world,
By the way thanks a lot for everything which helped me to buy better device w.r.t Price.

Anonymous, 14 Apr 2016Thanks a lot my friend just want to know any cons or problem you have encountered with Z5c how... moreNo heating problems whatsoever and I play some serious games with intense graphics. Most of the heating problems that people complained about were with the Z3+ from what I know. Sony seems to have resolved this with the Z5c.
However, I just bought the Z3 for my wife on B&H for only $330, so if you are indifferent to size I would probably go that route before the offer expires. Just be aware that it only comes with 16 GB of storage versus the 32 GB in the Z5c. But a fantastic deal nonetheless.

I have friends who left Android years ago for Apple, went back recently, and were blown away by how much the Android experience has improved. So I don't think you will be disappointed if you switch from Apple to Android. But you will likely miss the Apple ecosystem if you have a bunch of other Apple devices. iPhones are sexier. Plus Apple is all about holding the hands of people who are either not tech savvy or prefer not thinking about tech things (I don't mean this as insult). There is something to be said for that model. Sony does have a great PC Companion program for backing up your phone and other functions.
But at the end of the day, you have to ask if the Apple premium is worth all of the above. For me, not now or ever. But that is because I buy a lot of expensive gear, and if I had to pay the Apple premium for my stuff, I wouldn't have nearly as many toys as I do.
Also, if you haven't experienced an Android before than you really should do yourself a favor and at least try it. If you don't like it, that is what eBay is for.

Anonymous, 14 Apr 2016thanks for your opinion but I am taking about normal Z3 (5.2'' 1080p display) vs Z5 compact...... moreOh my bad. I am not sure you can compare any of the Compacts to their full size brethren. One of the things Compact users love (and honestly just take for granted) is the super looooong battery life which is the MAJOR benefit of a smaller screen. You will not get that with the Z3. Plus one handed use is great. If you look at the spec side by side, the difference between the full size and compact really is only screen size and battery life. So suggesting the Z3 versus Z5c really is a preference decision that is up to the user. I like phones that fit easily in my pants pocket, but I don't want to give up performance. The Sony Xperia Compacts are the ONLY Android smartphone that meet this criteria. End of Story.

AnonD-526167, 14 Apr 2016Also would I be able to transfer my data from iTunes to Android? What data are you talking about? If you mean photos video and music you can transfer it from iTunes to pc then to Xperia. Also for the previous respond personally I think the z5 has a better multimedia interaction as it also has a better screen and you can have showbox on Android too which you can't have on ios.

AnonD-526167, 14 Apr 2016I am choosing between the iPhone SE and the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. I have always had iPhones ... moreThe iPhone se is faster has higher capabilities in terms of performance not by a lot but by some. Camera they are both about the same although the se camera is probably easier to use and has the 240 slow motion.

I am choosing between the iPhone SE and the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. I have always had iPhones so this would be my first experience of Android. I know that the Sony is cheaper, it charges quicker and has better battery life but, for me, it doesn't have the appeal of the iPhone. Any tips?

Z5c as much as people badmouth it unfortunately for them it's actually a really good device and the camera is stunning. To make the camera complete you can buy the Sony wx350 superzoom and download playmemories to get a perfect camera experience with 2 cameras working as one on your Z5c. Also this device can't be compared to other devices simply because each device has its own manufacturer and it's own style. When it comes to specs there might be same or better ones on other devices or even lower specs but again unless 2 devices are completely equal in every aspect from specs to price to design, they can't be compared to see which fits the overall better. There are reviews all over the Web about how this phone is better than that phone and so on. Waste of time really. Each person has their own preference when it comes to mobile phones and not everyone can afford the best of the best so therefore many companies make many phones to make different profits indifferent markets. They make their new devices according to trading standards and as tech moves forward so do the trading standards. Now weather the company chose to use a 10mp camera or a 20mp camera has nothing to do with what other companies use its just purely advertisement to create a media logo and to try and persuade buyers to purchase their product over others. That don't mean that there is competition between the actual devices but competition between sales and profit. Next time you buy a phone think about what you need it for not the specs and looks as tomorrow there will be a new version.
