Z2 vs Z3

[amfirbek92]

Hi Sony

i bought my sony z2 from 2 months and i believe this is a superb phone.. WHICH SHOULD LAST AS SONY's 2014 FLAGSHIP UNTIL I BUY UPCOMING Z4 2015's FLAGSHIP

today after z3 family announcement i can see that my z2 is getting old somehow while both devices doesnt differ so much in terms of hardware..actually z2 is kinda better in terms of battery while cam sensor,lens and stereo speakers are similar

now what i am kindly asking u as an old sony fan to improve z2 cam for low light pictures (iso 12800),battery life,sound enhancement especially with ur new improved engine found in z3 as we all know these are just software improvements and development, while i should expect my z2 to last more on battery usage (3200mah-quad core 2.3 vs 3100mah-quad core 2.5) as well as android updating (we're still missing 4.4.4 while we should be waiting for L update) and plz do something for bluetooth connections problems while wifi is on (i usually connect my smartband SWR10,SW2, MW600 all together and i sometimes face disconnections and wifi internet getting slow)

i cant be the only one wishing this here..and plz i dont want to feel my z2 getting old before z4..

many thanks in advance

You know what **bleep** me off ? I brought my phone one or two month ago , and it's already OLD , you know i paid 600€ for a device that already got a news version under 3 month, serisouly this is joke, also my Z2 have some issue like screen eating like mad battery , also that screen under 5 min of playing get very hot to point that it burn my finger , I throught Sony would be good way to avoid Samsung (that you know under 6 month you get a news model) But I guess it's same thing.

I paid even more and the last year i was the first guy to buy xperia Z in lebanon really! (it was 1040$) just 6 months later Z1 came and kicked Z in everything especially hardware..i didnt say anything i agreed and waited for Z2 but now what pushed me to talk is that both devices have almost same hardware and the improvements i'm asking Sony about are just software things + Z2 was just released 4 months ago!

So plz sony we are waiting for ur response

And sorry about ur problems but i dont really face such issues with my phone,check what games are u playing and their compatibility with the device and android version..bcz i play large ones on mine such as asphalt 8 and mc5..it takes good time to heat up..the real heat is with 4K recording which i wish to be fixed in the upcoming software releases

Just playing classic free to play I'll list them , Top eleve, ; Game Of war , clash of clan , z hunter , swamp attack, any of them make the screen like burning **bleep** , also I hope but i guess sony won't care , would be change Z2 owner to Z3 for a little price or free of charge

[amfirbek92]

We're both playing top eleven..i dont have heat issue with it

Logically they should care as respect for their fans, and this is very easy due to hardware similarity i mention again

I wont go for z3 i will wait for next 2015 flagship z4

I think what makes it seem worse is the fact that the Z2 was delayed by nearly 2 months. I'd assume that Sony had already planned the release date for the Z3.

[amfirbek92]

Maybe..that's why i asked them to add some new stuff

Well, nothing is made from day to day, it needs plans, strategy, technical backup, designers work... I think they knew how the Z series will look, when they released Xperia S. Also think that 6 months flagship life is all about money... to get more, faster. I'm wery pleased with my Z2 as an outstanding device considering friends still using Galaxy S3, or LG L7, and I tottaly disagree with my Z2 getting old, watching Z3 specs I'm tottaly peacefull that nothing really changed, just a facelift made. Z2 will be over it's time for a while with it's 3 GB RAM and strong quadcore even for next gen android 5.1 or 6.5 or whatever... we'll be ready. Many reasons and issues, but I'm a 100% sure, that's the best phone I've ever had... ever!

[amfirbek92]

I totally agree with you..Z2 is a powerful device and outstanting device comparing with my friends even having newer phones like S5 and G3.. I'm not really impressed by what other brands add to their phones (useless sensors bla bla..) first things i care of in a phone are design,platform,performance.. After I will surely care of a good camera and good speakers and i will ask to profite to the max from the hardware my phone has.. That why my main subject in this thread is asking sony to give us these new software stuff (camera,sound) and improve battery and connectivities

I am surprised that people are still asking why Z3 was released 6 months after Z2. Sony had since Z1 confirmed that they will release a series every 6 months.

What I would love to see is that Sony also do a total upgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4 for Z2 since they already did so for the past Z series.
