It’s flagship phone by Sony. Display: Excellent display despite having TFT LCD display. Though lower than the Super AMOLED of Samsung.not easily differentiated by ur eyes.+ triluminous display with Bravia 2 engine having x reality .simply great. Design: No one can put like this, man.awesome.front-back glass material with framing of aluminum.that’s the premium looks you have with it.very slim.water proofing design-none other phone company have it. It has been improved water proofing than Sony Z.No chance of water getting Z1 from you.! Camera: Best thing of phone manual mode: 20.7 mpx auto mode:8 mpx( more detailed than Samsung note 3 -13 mpx.surprisingly) Having 1/2.3mm sensor size more than any other phone in the world.people surprised by megapixels but that’s not thing to be amazed. But it’s the sensor size to be looked upon. Having G lens from DSLR professional camera.it’s award winning.great integration. Music system: it’s done good work. having many options. Similar level achieved to Samsung note 3.just external speakers the thing U won’t be satisfied.but that can be ignorable. Performance: Sat before in Bullet train?.! very fast speed.with out any hangouts.u can’t make difference from Samsung note 3.main feature of phone.must to be looked upon. Battery: large 3000mAh with highest duration of talktime than any other phone in market. Slightly weighty thing with 170gm becoz of incorporation of large size battery and High level G lens hardware. User interface is quite good. Dust resistant, scratch resistant display. But some carefulness needed because of glass display.not a major thing. Very user friendly.good customization options. Video quality quite well with full HD recording. For extra codec support needs application from market. Expandable memory option.
