1st, BIG thanks for you guys @ HandTec as this was the most satisfied and professional treatment I ever had from an online store.. Now to the phone; well when you see this phone in person, you'll instantly notice that this is the best Xperia design that Sony has ever produced. Unlike Samsung’s plastic phone elements; Sony put some real expensive materials to its Xperia Z line by making each device feel as solid as can be. The Xperia Z feels very good when you hold it. And I’m sure if you chuck it at someone’s head it’ll inflict serious damage without leaving a blemish on the body. The Z is incredible when it comes to viewing photos and videos and my family photos look way so different from my iPhone 5 screen, and finally about the battery life as the handset includes what seems to be a gimmick battery saving feature called battery STAMINA. This feature supposedly saves up to four times the run-time by shutting off background data use when the screen is turned off. I didn't get that much battery savings, but it definitely improved leftover juice in the phone twofold.. Everything just looks excellent and rich.. Sony did a well-done job and I think this is the best Android based phone of all the competitors.
