3 store had a dummy version today which I had a play with. First impressions based on design:
Top quality design, best from Sony yet and easily one of the best on the market at the moment. The glass back is lovely and it just feels a very premium design. Quite weighty but that is a plus point. Recessed rockers and switches also very high quality and robust. Shame about the port flaps but other than that this phone oozes quality and design.
It's a big phone, there is no denying that. It feels big and that screen is huge. I wouldn't want to drop it as it looks like it could break!
My biggest concern is more the ergonomics of the design. Size wise it's only marginally bigger than the S3 but unlike the S3 which imo gets away with it's large size by having tapered edges and curved back, the Z is very slab like.
With it's squared of edges I envisage that it could be awkward to use one handed purely because you can't get enough reach to the whole of the screen. The depth is also quite thick and box like so it doesn't sit that naturally in your hand.
Saying that I haven't used it in real life so it may be something you can adjust to. The S3 imo just pulls the whole large screen phone issue off by being more aware of the need to use your phone comfortably.
I can't see phones going beyond 5". For me 4.5 - 4.8 is the max the screen can be and I wonder if this is the largest we will see the smartphone go.
All in all looked a lovely device. Now for the real working version!

Now I don't really see any major difference. Hardware & Battery is one place where it's still not on par but I still believe XZ has got it's own charm in Design/UI & Innovation like water-dust resistant.
P.S - All above Specs/Images are rumours[ This Message was edited by: Indiandawg on 2013-02-07 20:49 ]

It really excels in low light. A new standard for cameraphones imo.

Could you post a pic with Xperia Z and Xperia S, side by side, and one on top of another, on every angle (bottom, top, sides, front) and on the side, .
