The Xperia Z3 may just be an iterative upgrade, but manages to create its own unique identity
Sep 25 2014 By Deepak DhingraLet’s get this out of the way first – if you’re a Sony Xperia Z2 owner already, an upgrade to the Z3 isn’t warranted. However, the new device has enough to make you envious, and we’ll understand if you want to throw vitriol at Sony for coming up with an offering which is way better, in a short span of time.The storm that the Indian smartphone pit witnessed in the recent months, that saw a smorgasbord of capable yet devices, has diluted the stand of super-premium dev
Read Full ReviewI went to the Sony Showroom and Checked out the Z3.. Its far far Better than Z2 in terms of Loudspeaker, Video Quality, Picture Quality , the Body Make and the Style.nnI would strongly recommend to buy from the Sony Exclusive Store or Sony Smart Lounge as they are giving on 18 EMI's with no extra charges, no processing fees plus 5% Cash Back on HDFC Credit Card so the total cost of phone comes to Rs.47,500/-nnIf you buy here at 18 EMI's with HDFC Credit Card you have to shell out total of Rs.56,136/- when you click on EMI option.. Then why the hell should you spend Rs.8,636 ..nnAnd WS Retail is the only authorized Seller for SONY, no other retailers bill would be validated by SONY if something happens...
Price of Z3 quite steep when compared to S5,G3,Z2 and one M8. But what to do? I have to blame COPPER colour. Copper colour is the culprit here! Yes that colour attracted me very much and i bought copper coloured handset. It looks gorgeous in hands.nDISPLAY: despite of having same screen size and resolution than that of Z2, there in nothing much to talk about. But i can say that display is too good.According to me, Quad HD display is simply waste and power consuming for mobile, but this has Full HD which more than enough! Outdoor visibility is too good.nDESIGN: typical Sony's design. It is having Aluminium frame around phone. And the built quality is very good.nCAMERA: the most important part, camera! Sony claims that tbe Z3's camcorder is best among waterproof smartphone. And it turns out to be quite real. Photos taken during day time is having lot amount of details and it turns out bad during low light shots. But i can manage with it. However we can't expect DSLR like quality here. Front camera is OK OK, good for Skype.nBATTERY: this turns out very impressive factor of this phone. I'm getting battery backup for 3 days with medium usage. Even with heavy usage it will last for minimum for 1.5 days.nAt last i want to say that, its just a minor upgrade from Z2, you can buy this phone if you want to experience the best of Sony. And yes, Indian Z3 version has 4G/LTE support which Z2 doesn't have. It also supports Indian LTE , TDD LTE BAND 40.nYou can also consider LG G3,Z2,S5 which is available for less price. If you want small screen size with same power house and camera of Z3, you have Z3 Compact also.nThank you!
