I can understand the different between S3 and XZ for the video playback due to the higher resolution on the XZ, but why the 3G talktime has a big different between them ? Xperia Z can last 4 hours longer than S3. Why ?

Newer antenna technology that comes with the Qualcomm SoC.

Obvious troll is obvious. I'm not making excuses for the Z. Unless because I was stating the tests were unfair for LCDs I'm making excuses for the HTC One, One X, iP5, Optimus G, G pro etc.
One point of the post was saying it was a good result. Then I explained why the S3 can not be used as a comparison, and thus pointed out the unfairness of the test. Keep failing.

So essentially you are making an excuse, the other phones just make it more convenient. Even among the LCDs of those phones there are major differences e.g. The LCD of the iPhone5 is much smaller than the others at 4.0inches and has a completely different resolution, then get on to the sort of SoC used, then memory management, CPU clock speed, we could go on and on and get deeper and deeper into the differences in a desperate attempt to make your point valid, and we would come to the conclusion that actually, nit picking the results the way you have will lead us nowhere.
What GSMArena do is try put the phones through the sort of usage that most users would do, they try as much as they can to then even up the playing ground e.g. Setting screen to a certain brightness etc...
If you can't accept GSMArenas results then just say so, but to make excuses and claim bias, well that...that is certainly as you say, "failing".

Here is my small experience with SXZ a week after receiving it.
Screen
I compared it with the Xperia T, the Z is little bit less bright at 100%, which is good, T is way too bright I believe.
Colors and videos look great, blacks are OK at normal brightness. The screen is lovely and people are wowed when they look at pictures or movies.
Stamina mode
Is great for expanding battery life, you choose the applications you like to keep active when Stamina is on, the Z kills the others and it works
More than 6 hours after charging the battery was still at 100%.
Battery
Screen at high levels of brightness consumes a lot of battery.
Overall I find the Z to have a very moderate battery consumption on standby!
Therefore with an average usage (and 3 emails syncs and whatsapp) after 3 charges, battery is on 50 hours with 90 minutes of screen on(stamina mode is off).
Camera capabilities
I took the Z with me on a Ski trip to the French alps, we had beautiful sunny days and snowy days.
You can judge of the results, I'm posting many photos. Some of which were taken in Torino,Italy also.
Camera cold start is very slow compared to Xperia S or T, more than 4 to 5 seconds
Superior Auto mode is capable of the best and of the worst : During low light indoor conditions "Superior auto" chooses "Soft snap" and massacres everything by softening and eliminating noise.
Here is an example of 2 photos taken a few seconds away, results are very different:
Stabilizer is on by default, no options to disable it like in the normal mode.
UNDER THE SNOW
VARIOUS PHOTOS
Overall I found the photos to be good depending on the selected mode, and compared to my Xperia S, colors are natural.
I took 2 comparison shots with Sony DSCTX20 (16mpx, water and shock resistant compact camera, Exmor R with Carl Zeiss optics) not the best compact camera at all, but a good comparator I think.
Cheers

I never found the T screen too bright at all and in stores the Z screen is a little dull to me. As for superior auto mode, I found it inaccurate on the T update. I was focusing on a night shot and it kept jumping between night scene and macro at a distance. I NEVER find any auto mode accurate on any camera. Making a night shot on the T on superior auto mode came out worse and more noisy than using manual settings.
