Sony Xperia Z is the latest flagship
device of Sony which was released earlier this year. In terms of design and
build quality it is the best available high end smartphone but when it comes
benchmarks and hardware Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One are better. Lately, I was
looking for a high end smartphone for myself which could suffice my every need.
I am basically a type of person who needs a huge battery backup because I
browse on the Internet a lot. I also listen to music, play games and make 2 to
4 calls a day. I started my search and asked a lot of people regarding the
perfect smartphone. I was a bit confused which device to buy from S4, HTC One
and Xperia Z. Finally, I made a move and bought Xperia Z. I must say I am
highly satisfied with this high end smartphone and here are few important
reasons which will definitely compel you to buy this beautiful design.
Design:
Xperia Z is certainly the best
device in the market considering its design and build quality. Sony has done a
great job in giving this smartphone a perfect premium quality look and feel.
Both front and back panel of this device are made from glass which gives it a
premium look and feel. To be honest it was one my priorities when I was looking
for a perfect smartphone because previously I was using SIII and its design and
build quality always irked me.
Water Proof:
It is the only smartphone which
is water resistant. Both S4 and HTC One lack this unique feature. So, obviously
this great feature separates Xperia Z from the other two devices. When I bought
Sony Xperia Z I was reluctant to try water resistance test but a friend of mine
forced me and I gave it a try. And to my surprise it passed the test. I was
ecstatic at that moment xD
Battery:
Samsung S4 has a huge battery and
one can expect it to perform better than Xperia Z I terms of battery backup. My
friend owns Samsung Galaxy S4 and I performed some tests on both Xperia Z and
S4. I tested stand by and browsing battery backup. I was surprised to see that
Xperia Z out classed S4 in browsing battery test whereas Samsung Galaxy S4
performed better in standby mode. However, you can increase the standby mode of
Xperia Z by using stamina mode.
Social:
We all use Facebook, Twitter and
other social networking sites. So, it is appreciated if we could get all
updates under roof. Sony’s Social app is certainly the best application which
offers the great social networking experience and keeps you updated with your
social networking updates along with news. Unfortunately, it is only for Xperia
devices. HTC One’s blinkfeed is another good option but it consumes a lot of
battery. With the latest update Sony has improved their Social application a
lot.
Walkman
App:
Music is must for me and for that
I want easy to use yet catchy app. I am highly impressed with Sony’s Walkman
application. It is intuitive, attractive and very easy to use. I can easily
navigate between Artists, Songs and Albums. Though it may not offer some
interesting features like Samsung’s music app but still it is better in terms
of user interface.
These are the major reasons which
certainly make Sony Xperia Z better than both Samsung S4 and HTC One. I hope
you will agree with me here.
