cant wait to have it, kaso wala naman pambili… hehe
i would like to see it in action. perhaps a hands-on in Xperia Z2.
we can call it “the upgrade version of Z1”. not much differs in Z1.
this is a good match up between galaxy s5 and xperia z2. i wonder which product gain more audience and consumer.
i would vote for xperia z2. cause the style and design of sony xperias are more elegant/superior looking than galaxies!
how much the STM10 Stereo Microphone? and does it compatible to Xperia Z1?
yes it should work in xperia z1 also.
i bought the xperia z1 last year, and now they quickly release xperia z2… does xperia z1 users will get an update for android 4.4 kitkat?
yes they will release update to xperia z1.
@Monica wala naman yan sa style and design. it should be rate by performance of the phone. For what i know, Sony is the best in terms of camera details.
i would recommend this smartphone for some users who would do mobile photography, this would be the best smartphone for 2014
Xperia Z1 and Z2 look the same to me.
