I owned an iPhone 5S and honestly, it's so boring and repetitive. I finally grew out of it and bought an Xperia Z and could not be happier. It's done me better than any of the iPhones i've ever owned. I love the Android OS, much better than the iOS. Sony is ahead of its time with technology, if only people would actually do a little research, they'd be lining up in front of the Sony store for new phones and tablets rather than the Apple store.
You got rid of a iphone 5s and purchased a sony xperia z ?? Are you crazy ? If you wanted the change that bad to android and was determined to get rid of your iphone surely there were better android devices available then the xperia Z
this is not a fair review. I had iphone 5 and switch to xperia z and i can say there is a huge difference. In terms of performance and display xperia z is superior. You say that iphone 5 has the most accurate display? That is not true, 1080p, 441 ppi and bravia engine 2 is much better than the iphone. You are an Apple fanboy....
Xperia Z offers a much better experience overall than iPhone 5 , people who used both at least once will understand , for everyone else , well just don't talk about whether one is better than the other you clearly don't know much other than specs on paper
great review! Keep up the good work! These reviews are great as it gets down to the bottom of whether or not a phone just looks good or great to use! :D
Iphone 5 640 x 1136 pixels, 4.0 inches (~326 ppi pixel density) Xperia Z 1080 x 1920 pixels, 5.0 inches (~441 ppi pixel density) retina display is NOT as good obviously
It's PERSONAL PREFERENCE! Yes, they are not customisable, don't have a massive computer / tablet screen...but it works fine. It's definitely the most beautiful phone out there, the only phone you can still fit in your pocket and people are impressed by it like they would be if you bought a Mercedes. Only a geeky guy with glasses would walk us to you and say, wow is that the "Samsung galaxy s4" or is that the Sony XPeria Z (Get what I'm saying).
I've had all the iPhones... I'm bored to death with them - so I'm buying a Sony Xperia z tomorrow. Way more interesting, bigger, faster and its waterproof... you can't beat that.
You didn't see that i said the s4 active? Sometimes i wonder if you all are just in a hurry to throw insults instead of reading. I actually just bought the s4 today to replace my s4 active
Ever noticed how confused Apple user look every time they have forgotten their charger....quite fun to watch. I'm using an old HTC Wildfire charger for my Xperia Z. Xperia Z is anonymous, stylish and practical while the Iphone is the gimmicky and flashy, while being a loner who wont play with other then its own kind when it comes to software and hardware.
I love my experia z it's twice as fast as iPhone five bigger display water proof and the set up is amazing I use to love iPhones but I'm bored of there same old stuff android is the new age of phones
Wow this guy was biased. He claims how over saturated the Z's screen was, when in reality the 5's image was simply washed out. Just look at the damn yellow fish lol jesus this guy. Glad they got rid of him.
Yeah...get lost iphone..racist phone.. Can't bluetoth with others only with their own kind... Sony xperia z is the best.. Waterproof, battery last long, and im sony xperia z user approve my message..have been using for 1 year and it still at the best!
The camera in the Sony looks alot like the iPhone camera but the Sony is much better. Sony is known for their cameras. I had a Sony camera a long time ago and I would still buy another. I had an iPhone 4S and sold it recently to get a used Xperia Z1S with a 20.7 MP camera. That was the best electronics decision I have made. I like the covered ports on the Xperias. Sure the covers are known to break off but you can get them online. I have one on order from Hong Kong. It is not a genuine Sony part so I will check that it fits at least as well as the other ones that I still have. The one missing is for the USB port and that is probably one that is commonly missing/broken since that would get opened and closed alot. The Xperia will also remind you to close the cover if it detects it has been unplugged. That is nice because some people might assume that it is waterproof when open but I can see the light of the display through a small hole by the USB port and I would definitely want to close that up before I take it outside. I could use the magnetic charger instead (it is not inductive but attaches using a magnet) and I would not have that problem. I find it odd the magnetic charge port has exposed pins. They might be protected from shorts and other things but that is hard to say without contacting Sony or a knowledgeable sales person.
Loved your review.you are the first guy who sayd that android phone are not so smooth. Thats why i will always use an iPhone. Because i hate it when it is stutering
CPU power, GPU power, resolution, refresh rate, Corning Gorilla Glass (scratch resistant, too), customization, screen size, water and dust proof, cloud functionality, design (opinion), camera options, camera resolution, and expansion memory slot. That's off the top of my head. ;)
there is a reason why most people in comment threads on these videos favor. the type of people who would buy an iphone aren't the type of people who actually care about what their phone could do compared to others on the market.
Yes, the video is ... almost entirely subjective. I own both. The screen is more than fine, and it doesn't stutter to a noticeable extent. The camera on the Z is quite a bit better in low/bright light. The built-in speaker on the iPhone is certainly better. One thing not mentioned is that the Z has NFC. The Japanese model of the Z also has 1seg TV. I use the Z much more than the iPhone because things like Skype run in the background well. The main disadvantage of the Z is battery life.
It's low powered but it outperforms, period. Battery life, camera, speed. I have 30-40 apps open on my iPhone. Videos, streaming stock charts, Skype all seamlessly work when switching back and forth. In comparison, my Galaxy Note 2 has serious battery degradation when I have 10 apps open and it's a guess if I switch back to an app that's streaming if it either crashes, freezes, or actually works. So what were you saying about "basically paying...for an OS"? I would think we're paying for results
sony xperia z is nice only problem the silver bit in the charging dock is weak and breaks off happened to alot of people now i have to charge it with a charging dock
What do you mean with the speaker placement? I'm thinking of buying the Z, are there any other things you don't like about the phone? i'm sorry if he pointed it out already in the video, I didn't pay attention to this guy since he is a bit to subjective.
And again as I always say, if you want less saturation on Xperia Z, turn off Bravia Engine increases detail + sharpness, Bravia Engine (in this case Bravia Engine 2) is for more vibrancy of color and noise reduction. So to sum it all up with Xperia Z turning on and off Bravia Engine to the users comfort is the fact that they baked you the cake and yes you can eat it too.
"two premium smartphones", you call this iphone with 1GB RAM a premium phone? Besides, this is a David and Goliath battle. Xperia is way better in NUMBERS
I went for Xperia Z personally. I like HTC One but I don't like the UI and 4,7" screen. It's better for majority of people, I realy want that 5" screen.
Imho most accurate means that the colors, saturation, etc are the most accurate (it has nothing to do with the ppi), so the screen's picture is the most realistic (looks like real world).
Display accuracy is a function of many factors, such as pixel density. All else equal, 1080p displays are more accurate than 720p displays as pixel density is higher. Currently full-HD displays have the highest pixel densities, with the HTC One currently having the highest.
when you hold the phone firmly (portrait) the speaker is almost blocked by your hands palm, so the sound is muffled. and i just figured out some annoying things: data transfering from PC is slow because it's not recognized as a "drive" in PC instead of portable devices, the LED notification isn't working (can be fixed by factory reset though) and the phone gets hot fast while playing games or playing movies, other than that, i think there's no problem with the phone.
i got the xperia S in 2012, and i have it now, the S has Dual Core 1,5Ghz, so why iphone with a dual core can be faster to start some apps? Maybe cause the apps to ios is Optimized?! Thanks
the xperia z is the perfect size for a smartphone. it may look big in ur screen but when u hold it u will feel how comfortable it is to use the xperia z
It would be good if reviewers could write what are criteria for a good phone. Not all of us are looking for the same thing. IP5 likes: longer battery life, better apps, runs smoothly. XZ likes: bigger screen, w/d proof, customizable interface. Wanna spend more time with your mobile? go XZ- learn, optimize, customize, surf, watch video. Wanna do basic functions quickly, spend less time on your phone? Go IP5 - basic, no learning curve, no surf just check out, check out videos but listen to music.
Personally I prefer the iPhone 5. My brother has the Xperia and we switched, we both preferred the iPhone it was easy and looked so much better quality and build wise
There are a lot of 1080p screens out there, be it on a phone or a TV. But pixel density alone is not a defining factor as to how good a screen is. Display type, the glass, distance between the display and the glass, viewing angles, brightness, contrast ratio. Those, combined with pixel density, are what made up a good screen. Educate yourself.
I think what he meant by "standard" was that the aspect ratio of the screen in Xperia Z is standard (1920 x 1080), compared to the strange number in iPhone 5....
Yes, it is a personal preference - a reviewer should try though to be as objective as possible. I'm not advocating big screens - actually they don't do much for me. But this review does have a clear bias and does not properly address the faults of the iphone and the pros of the Xperia. Only a geek anyway would walk up to a total stranger and compliment them on the aesthetics of their phone, regardless of the brand.
Well it depends on what you mean with accurate, the Xperia Z has a better display than the iPhone but like pocketnow said the colours are super saturated so you can argue that iPhone has a more realistic display.
Sony made a mistake to put 3 different lcd panels in xperia z. Pretty much all reviews have the JDC 2 with 700:1 Contrast Ratio. Retail units should have the Sharp panel with 1000:1 ratio.
is he seriously complaning that Xperia Z is too big for his hands ? yes mention that it might be a problem but for me that is a plus since i have large hands and iPhone is a tiny bit small to me
@pocketnowvideo ~ I agree with all of this review in regards to the Xperia Z (which is my daily driver) accept the stuttering thing. With OS navigation, I never see stuttering ... ever. I do see it from time to time in apps like G+, but that's arguably not the phones fault. I do own an iPhone 4S as well, and do understand where you are coming from in regards to the apps not stuttering on iOS as much, but like I said before... I find the OS functionality of Xperia Z to be stutter free.
I think I get it. Whatever the Xperia Z does better than the iPhone 5 is not needed or not cared about. Things like colors are more important (since the next iPhone might have that), right? Therefore, iPhone 5 is equal or better, right? That is artifically lowering the bar. It's the very definition of bias.
4 to 5 is a big leap. Much better camera, much better screen (bigger and better), and much much faster. The phone will instantly feel faster and smoother. But yea with a 5 inch phone with customizable or even switchable interface, you will enter a new world.
the guys owning only one devices stop saying F*** to the other ones. coz i have been using a old school Xperia for long time before getting an iPhone. the software wise iphone is rigid but still fun to use and very user friendly and on the other hand xperia has provided me a great service all these time, so very satisfied. Having said that, Apple d look into their OS upgrades and not make it more amateur looking [like ios7]. iOS was great in 2007 when it first came out but its 2013.
but they are in roughly a £30 price range. Z does have better specs but you cannot really comment on 'power' when they use different operating systems that require different specs.
gave up my iphones for xperia Z! dust, shock and water proof! had a prob with ipone's home and power button. wear & tear. 3yrs is a long time. was a staunch lover of iphone... until xperia Z came in the picture.
I saw multiple 1080p phone screens next to the Iphone 5's so called retina display. The Iphone 5 does not have anything on them! People say you can't tell the difference, well they're lying to you and themselves. The colors on the Iphone are dulled out due to resolution, thats why the sony looks over saturated.
i think the Sony Xperia Z has to win, although, if the iphone had an inserted screen protector and hid all the panels -except from the size- thed pretty much be the same, but for me? Sony Xperia Z wins.
The Xperia is better, most powerful, most pretty, is better
I owned an iPhone 5S and honestly, it's so boring and repetitive. I finally grew out of it and bought an Xperia Z and could not be happier. It's done me better than any of the iPhones i've ever owned. I love the Android OS, much better than the iOS. Sony is ahead of its time with technology, if only people would actually do a little research, they'd be lining up in front of the Sony store for new phones and tablets rather than the Apple store.
You should of got the Z1 it's way better than the Z
Matthew Chanthirat The Z1 is basically the Z but everything that was wrong was put right.... genius
Pretty much
You got rid of a iphone 5s and purchased a sony xperia z ?? Are you crazy ?
If you wanted the change that bad to android and was determined to get rid of your iphone surely there were better android devices available then the xperia Z
Z1 is better than the z ian walker better waterproofing to with no annoying cover for headphone jack
Your bad. The Sony Xperia Z is a billion times better than some iPhone. I can name ovet 100 things that the sony xperia z can do but the iPhone can't.
my Xperia Z tablet still rocks even after 5 years of constant use! Sony is a technological champion indeed.
this is not a fair review. I had iphone 5 and switch to xperia z and i can say there is a huge difference. In terms of performance and display xperia z is superior. You say that iphone 5 has the most accurate display? That is not true, 1080p, 441 ppi and bravia engine 2 is much better than the iphone. You are an Apple fanboy....
Xperia Z offers a much better experience overall than iPhone 5 , people who used both at least once will understand , for everyone else , well just don't talk about whether one is better than the other you clearly don't know much other than specs on paper
great review! Keep up the good work! These reviews are great as it gets down to the bottom of whether or not a phone just looks good or great to use! :D
You can clearly see that this guy is a apple fanboy. compare the number of apps on both phones, hundreds on the IPhone and 2 on the z.
Agrees, my point is just that people should understand that the way the iphone works is perfect for some,others find it useless. I understand that.
Iphone 5 640 x 1136 pixels, 4.0 inches (~326 ppi pixel density)
Xperia Z 1080 x 1920 pixels, 5.0 inches (~441 ppi pixel density)
retina display is NOT as good obviously
All apple phones and even others brands cant compete with Sony when it comes to sound and screen and durability
yeah i have Sony xperia z and i have friends with iPhone 5 and i am proud of my phone cus is such better
It's PERSONAL PREFERENCE! Yes, they are not customisable, don't have a massive computer / tablet screen...but it works fine. It's definitely the most beautiful phone out there, the only phone you can still fit in your pocket and people are impressed by it like they would be if you bought a Mercedes. Only a geeky guy with glasses would walk us to you and say, wow is that the "Samsung galaxy s4" or is that the Sony XPeria Z (Get what I'm saying).
the iphone 5 sucks compared to the xperia z
Sony is amazing - that IPhone can’t compete
I've had all the iPhones... I'm bored to death with them - so I'm buying a Sony Xperia z tomorrow. Way more interesting, bigger, faster and its waterproof... you can't beat that.
they aren't waterproof they could take a splash but not the being used in water. my galaxy s4 active was ruined due to using the underwater cam
C.A La B
you are fking dumb s4 is not waterproof.
You didn't see that i said the s4 active? Sometimes i wonder if you all are just in a hurry to throw insults instead of reading. I actually just bought the s4 today to replace my s4 active
ok ..
I have a question: why the fuck the Xperia Z's display look like shit in every review when in real life it's gorgeous?
Wow. Another Apple fanboy review.. Why can't anyone just do an honest review! "It's got an apple on the back that means it's the best phone!"
Ever noticed how confused Apple user look every time they have forgotten their charger....quite fun to watch. I'm using an old HTC Wildfire charger for my Xperia Z. Xperia Z is anonymous, stylish and practical while the Iphone is the gimmicky and flashy, while being a loner who wont play with other then its own kind when it comes to software and hardware.
I love my experia z it's twice as fast as iPhone five bigger display water proof and the set up is amazing I use to love iPhones but I'm bored of there same old stuff android is the new age of phones
one of the best reviews I've seen in a long time.
SONY xperia Z
This was exactly what I wanted. I have been stuck on choosing the iPhone or the Sony Xperia Z. Thanks for the video! Helped me make a choice.
Wow this guy was biased.
He claims how over saturated the Z's screen was, when in reality the 5's image was simply washed out. Just look at the damn yellow fish lol jesus this guy. Glad they got rid of him.
Dude you're propably not gonna get much likes because only android geeks are watching this to take out the iphone but you got my like
iphone5 was good,but the Z was better..
I appreciate that you actually admitted it is your opinion, it drives me crazy how people blatantly state their opinion as fact!
i choose every windows mobile ot android Phone above iphone
thanks for taking the time to do this!
even the 5s isnt better
Loved the way you explained :)
Yeah...get lost iphone..racist phone.. Can't bluetoth with others only with their own kind... Sony xperia z is the best.. Waterproof, battery last long, and im sony xperia z user approve my message..have been using for 1 year and it still at the best!
i wanna ask something, where u get the back skin for iphone 5? it looks great! i want it please whrere u get it?
mate xperia z beats iphone hands down..............chuck it in the bath and find out.
By that logic it's better than the best computer in the world :p
Pretty much

lol..xperia z is much- much better than iphone5..
"Both extremely powerful" Sony puts Apple to shame with the power!
1.2Ghz vs 1.5Ghz x4. Hahahahah
Sony Xperia Z1=2.1Ghz x4
8mp vs 13.1mp
Sony Xperia z1 21mp.
WTF SONY FU*KS IPhone 3-
This is the way all reviews most be, finally a review that say what i need to know
apple fanboy!
thx great review, planned to buy Xperia Z !!! hopefully in a month's time do share your reviews and suggestions
Iphones are pathetic!
very nice review , thanx for the tech specs and performance review.
I'm more concerned about Internet connection. Is the Xperia Z able to identify Wi-Fi hotspots better than older versions of Xperia such as the Ion?
great review!
Loved your review.you are the first guy who sayd that android phone are not so smooth. Thats why i will always use an iPhone. Because i hate it when it is stutering
CPU power, GPU power, resolution, refresh rate, Corning Gorilla Glass (scratch resistant, too), customization, screen size, water and dust proof, cloud functionality, design (opinion), camera options, camera resolution, and expansion memory slot. That's off the top of my head. ;)
this is a brilliant review dude
there is a reason why most people in comment threads on these videos favor. the type of people who would buy an iphone aren't the type of people who actually care about what their phone could do compared to others on the market.
Im Watching This with a Sony Xperia Z

sony xperia z is nice only problem the silver bit in the charging dock is weak and breaks off happened to alot of people now i have to charge it with a charging dock
HEHHE BIG TRUE I HAVE SAME PROBLEM HEHE
ino and apparently its out of the manufacturers warranty
l buy the dock station
Same but its annoying how we have to fund it when its there fault.
yes is true but still no possible used usb conect hehe l want buy now z1
What do you mean with the speaker placement? I'm thinking of buying the Z, are there any other things you don't like about the phone?
i'm sorry if he pointed it out already in the video, I didn't pay attention to this guy since he is a bit to subjective.
And again as I always say, if you want less saturation on Xperia Z, turn off Bravia Engine increases detail + sharpness, Bravia Engine (in this case Bravia Engine 2) is for more vibrancy of color and noise reduction. So to sum it all up with Xperia Z turning on and off Bravia Engine to the users comfort is the fact that they baked you the cake and yes you can eat it too.
The Sony has a standard display? Are you nuts? It has more pixels and is almost twice the resolution. Apple fanboy much?
can u let me know where i can get a back cover for my iphone 5 like the 1 in the video?
Where do u get those hd test videos?
impressive review, thanks taylor
"two premium smartphones", you call this iphone with 1GB RAM a premium phone? Besides, this is a David and Goliath battle. Xperia is way better in NUMBERS
I went for Xperia Z personally. I like HTC One but I don't like the UI and 4,7" screen. It's better for majority of people, I realy want that 5" screen.

Subscribed!
I'm an iPhone5 owner, and if I ever switch to android, I would be getting the Xperia. I think it's more beautiful the the HTC One.
Why is it so hard to have an objective comparison for the sake of those who are still on the fence?
i got the xperia S in 2012, and i have it now, the S has Dual Core 1,5Ghz, so why iphone with a dual core can be faster to start some apps? Maybe cause the apps to ios is Optimized?! Thanks
What phone is ishit5? I checked google and i didnt get a result..
the xperia z is the perfect size for a smartphone. it may look big in ur screen but when u hold it u will feel how comfortable it is to use the xperia z
It would be good if reviewers could write what are criteria for a good phone. Not all of us are looking for the same thing. IP5 likes: longer battery life, better apps, runs smoothly.

Yes, it is a personal preference - a reviewer should try though to be as objective as possible. I'm not advocating big screens - actually they don't do much for me. But this review does have a clear bias and does not properly address the faults of the iphone and the pros of the Xperia. Only a geek anyway would walk up to a total stranger and compliment them on the aesthetics of their phone, regardless of the brand.
Hi dude where u got back cover like that..
Can you use it under whater
Well it depends on what you mean with accurate, the Xperia Z has a better display than the iPhone but like pocketnow said the colours are super saturated so you can argue that iPhone has a more realistic display.
i do prefer sony products over apple but i hate how you cant have itunes on non apple devices.
Yeah, apple is annoying that way!
How about battery life?
Sony made a mistake to put 3 different lcd panels in xperia z. Pretty much all reviews have the JDC 2 with 700:1 Contrast Ratio. Retail units should have the Sharp panel with 1000:1 ratio.
nice review
is he seriously complaning that Xperia Z is too big for his hands ? yes mention that it might be a problem but for me that is a plus since i have large hands and iPhone is a tiny bit small to me
im using Z and its really great just got updated its firmware!
AWESOME!
@pocketnowvideo ~ I agree with all of this review in regards to the Xperia Z (which is my daily driver) accept the stuttering thing. With OS navigation, I never see stuttering ... ever. I do see it from time to time in apps like G+, but that's arguably not the phones fault. I do own an iPhone 4S as well, and do understand where you are coming from in regards to the apps not stuttering on iOS as much, but like I said before...

I think I get it. Whatever the Xperia Z does better than the iPhone 5 is not needed or not cared about. Things like colors are more important (since the next iPhone might have that), right? Therefore, iPhone 5 is equal or better, right? That is artifically lowering the bar. It's the very definition of bias.
He means in colour representation, the iPhones displays colours more acurately, where most android phones display oversaturated colours.
4 to 5 is a big leap. Much better camera, much better screen (bigger and better), and much much faster. The phone will instantly feel faster and smoother. But yea with a 5 inch phone with customizable or even switchable interface, you will enter a new world.
the guys owning only one devices stop saying F*** to the other ones. coz i have been using a old school Xperia for long time before getting an iPhone. the software wise iphone is rigid but still fun to use and very user friendly and on the other hand xperia has provided me a great service all these time, so very satisfied. Having said that, Apple d look into their OS upgrades and not make it more amateur looking [like ios7]. iOS was great in 2007 when it first came out but its 2013.
guyz wat i should buy iphone or sony xpz. plzzzZz help me. t plzzzz
Do Sony Xperia Z Have a play store?
but they are in roughly a £30 price range. Z does have better specs but you cannot really comment on 'power' when they use different operating systems that require different specs.
now this is a real comparism GOOD JOB
does the xperia z have panorama?
gave up my iphones for xperia Z! dust, shock and water proof! had a prob with ipone's home and power button. wear & tear. 3yrs is a long time. was a staunch lover of iphone... until xperia Z came in the picture.
I saw multiple 1080p phone screens next to the Iphone 5's so called retina display. The Iphone 5 does not have anything on them! People say you can't tell the difference, well they're lying to you and themselves. The colors on the Iphone are dulled out due to resolution, thats why the sony looks over saturated.
Good review.I got the xperia t.free on contract.Great phone.Nearly as good as the z.
Im a massive fanboy of sony and apple so i have no idea which one to get for my next phone...
i think the Sony Xperia Z has to win, although, if the iphone had an inserted screen protector and hid all the panels -except from the size- thed pretty much be the same, but for me? Sony Xperia Z wins.
