Sony Xperia Z4 officially unveiled in Japan!

I’m with Tian and he’s right. Kazam of England I like em very much too and they copied their design to Xperia.Xperia is way better than Samsung. Eversince when handyphone launched,Samsung is nowhere and during that time Sony-Ericsson is among the leading brand. I was born Sony and everything at home made by Sony.@Easy E, let’s try man throwing away your brand and my Xperia in septic tank and we’ll see if your brand of smartphone will still alive. Easy E can only afford to acquire CM,SM,MP n TM. Just accept the truth that Xperia is too expensive for you. You never had experience with Xperia that’s why you have no idea how Xperia works.

Performance is wayyyyy better than design. pang may class ang design ng xperia hindi nila kailangan magupgrade ng magupgrade ng design di nman yun papakinabangan mo e. maliban nalng kung pasikat ka :)

Xperia Z still has some room to change the design:
1. Rear camera placement. They still placed it in a way that it can easily be accidentally blocked with fingers
2. Bottom bezel. I don’t care much about the top. It’s the bottom bezel that makes this awkward to use one-handed as your thumb have to travel further into the screen. HTC One btw is even worse.
3. Slippery body. It claims to be waterproof but it’s slippery to use with your hand once it is splashed with water.

I’ve used HTC One, Xperia Z and the Samsung Galaxy S series in my line of work. Among the three phones, Xperia Z feels the fattest and sharpest (on the edges) on hand which makes it uncomfortable to use for a longer period of time.

Both the HTC One and the Sony Z series need to overhaul their design if they want to keep pace with Samsung. Just because they look good doesn’t mean it’s all that. Ergonomically speaking, those two companies still has a considerable room to improve their design. And from a naming convention standpoint, their flagships this year should have been just called has HTC One M9s and Xperia Z3s respectively. They are now in the same position where Samsung was before for the past couple of years. They’ve become stagnant and drank their own kool-aid thinking their designs are perfect.

From a performance perspective, the three companies are practically the same with the exception of the camera where Galaxy excels and the battery life where Xperia Z excels.

What I don’t understand with Sony is why they could not excel at the camera considering Samsung uses Sony’s own sensors.
