They're basically the same. Identical specs etc.
Only differences i've been able to track:
- ZL is 5-6mm shorter
- Z is water/dust proof while ZL is not
- ZL has infrared port to act as a bravia remote
- Different build. Z is full glass while ZL uses plastic back
No info on the price, although it might be almost the same. Shame they won't bring Z and ZL in the same time to most countries - seems like half the world won't get one of them. ZL won't be available in the UK.
no i did not know there were 2 diffrent models of the same phone
But looking again the z is better as in
IP57 certified - dust and water resistant
- Water proof up to 1 meter and 30 minutes
there are a number of features that's different on both.
Infrared - ZL
water/dust resistant - Z
Size - ZL
camera shutter key - ZL
battery - ZL
glass body - Z
Dual Sim - ZL? Please confirm this one
that's all I think.

ZL is *not* dual sim.
ZL has IR blaster, camera button and slimmer bezel
Z has full glass body, is thinner and is waterproof.

Thanks if that's true Can't really confirm that one since almost all blogs state that it's dual sim
and a sony moderator can't even confirm this one.
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/101891
Nevertheless how can you say that it's not dual sim? Need some credible source to believe it.

It is not dual sim. Look at any video when they open the back. The cover on the back gives you slots for microsim and microsd, not 2 micro sim cards. Also the battery is not really bigger. It's about 30-40mah more which is basically the same if we look at 2370mah capacity.
ZL also has a better notification light.

I wouldnt consider Z to have a notification light because of how small it is, it's just like my xperia T which I barely could see.
Ok then at least call it notification led since that thingy that's glowing is a light emitting diode LED.

Do you want slightly bigger phone with water/dust proofing (Z) or smaller sized device with ir remote and no water/dust proofing (ZL)? Other than that they are basically the same with some design differences.
The Z scored better in data speeds and battery times in the spec lists on the gsm link above coupled with waterproof and shatterproof that's the one I'd get my dad lol
From all the stuff I have read from both Xperia Acro S and Xperia Z, I have but one question remaining. Will the current specs of the Acro S be sufficient for the technology 2-3 years from now? Is the Xperia Z a good investment? Obviously, xperia v is out of the picture.
I ask these questions for the reason that I intend to purchase a new phone and plan to keep it till God-knows-when. Your expertise and experiences will be highly appreciated.
to the mods,if this is the place to post this thread, I apologize.

I actually own both (went from Acro S to Z) and here is what I found:
Speed:
I decided to upgrade from Acro S for a quicker running unit and I did notice a huge difference in how smooth things will run now... browsing through photos, loading time of thumbnails was very quick.
Display:
I really did not notice much difference in quality of display, just a much bigger screen
Connection Speed:
Thou I can't get the LTE to work in my location, I'm still getting much quicker speeds compared to the Acro S
Interface:
I use an aftermarket launcher on mine, so not much I can share about that other then some of the "setting's button" location has moved and around and will take some getting used to
Battery:
Acro S was WAY better compared to the Z (from my experience so far, same amount of apps and stuff running compared to my Acro S)
General:
The Acro S was a comfortable size, and the Z is really big for my taste, but of course, I sucked it up and traded size for speed.
The Z has a much tougher screen (glass/plastic/ what ever it's made of) compared to the Acro S, my Acro S had light scratches (after the 1st week) on the center where I use my thumb to scroll up and down a lot.. screen protector is a must.
So, I'm looking for an upgrade to my ages old Xperia Ray.
With Xperia Z2 now out, and Xperia Z1 and Xperia Z1 compact priced less than $50 higher than the Xperia Z. Is it still a good grab?
I've been in this dilemma since quite a couple of days now.. I saw the Z in a store and found it the best size. I know Z1 might feel a little awkward coming from a 3.3 Xperia Ray(its bigger than Z), and I just don't like the bezels on Xperia Z1 Compact. My other options are HTC One and LG G2. But I don't trust LG as a brand.
So back to the point, is Xperia Z still a good buy over the Z1 and Z1 compact? and why?
htc one

Xperia z is agood phone but the only problem is it's around an year old now, sony said we will get 4.4 update but i don't think we will get any ore after that , Z1 and z1 compact being newer,will surely be updated for a long time, and as they have s800 soc so they are more future proof
Bdw,go in for LG g2 if you dont like the z1 or z1 compact as that is a great phone, and is also future proof as it has the same specs as nexus 5
pick htc on lg. if i were to pick, i'd take lg because I've never had an lg phone and specs are awesome.
sony? i think i'll never buy it again. throwing out 5 different flagship phones in 1 year, customer support sucked, warranty problems sucked, display was dissapointment,... ui experience however was great. other bugs may annoy you.

not really better than Z.
The best would be lg g2

Depends what you need from a phone. Contrary to what lots of people say, the screen as compared directly to the Z1 is barely different with properly adjusted white balance and saturation. The camera is excellent but the battery life could be better. I like that with a 5 inch screen it's still smaller then the Z1, the Z1 feels much more slippery because while the edges are made from aluminium, the bezel of the front and back panels is surrounded by a super slick plastic rather then the soft touch finish of the Z. I'd still go for something like a Z1 Compact, Z2 if you really want top end specs and a much bigger battery.
Lg have really gotten their **** together with the G2.
people have reported excellent performance with excellent battery life.
it also got 4.4.2 kitkat before the xperia z1...which still hasnt gotten it yet.
and despite it having a 5.2inch screen, it honestly doesnt feel that big.
I would not suggest you to go with the Z1 Compact if you do not like it's size and bezel.
Whether to go with Xperia Z or Z1 will depend on a few factors:-
1. Snapdragon 800 vs S4 Pro - Do you need or want better performance and battery life?
2. 3000 mAh vs 2300 mAh - Do you want better battery life?
3. 170g vs 146g - Are you alright with the Z1 being heavier?
Personally I prefer the bezel size of the Z as Z1 has thicker bezel but it all comes down to personal preference.
Based on the specifications alone, Z1 will be the winner if the price of both phones are very close.
hey guys im gonna buy a new phone tomorrow night.
but im confused if i should buy xperia zr or z.
i wanted to buy z at first, but then after a lot of research, most people say z has battery issues. and zr has better battery life than z and battery life is important to me. that is why i looked into zr as my second choice.
what do u think guys? zr or z???

ZR has a better water and dust resistance rating. It's screen is 720p as compared to 1080p of Z, hence better battery life.
If you can manage with 8 GB internal memory, go with ZR.

Hello i have felt the sony xperia SP before and the Z.
The SP's wieght is quit low and when i carry it it feels very light and not heavy like the Z. However, i want to confirm the user experiances other people have had.
So i want to know if the SP wins or Z wins in terms of performance. When i touch the scren of the SP, it feels very smooth but im not sure if that is still good with the Z or not. Is the Z's screen ok and same as the SP or not?
The cpu speed of SP is more then Z so doesnt that make SP more powerfull then the Z. i KNOW THAT z has quad cpu but it has 1.5GH istead of 1.7ghz.
Thanks.
SP is sleek and so is the Z but i really want to confirm there usage. I want the loud ear speaker volume and videos and music should be played with out any bad quality

1) Z Wins here. The Touch Screen Is Very Smooth On Z. and For ur Information SP 's Display the worst ever . Just use a Z and see the difference. Z Display is awsom
2) SP has 1.7 Dual Core CPU. Z Has 1.5 Quad Core CPU. The So the speed does not matter here. Sure Z also win here too. U will get 3 times faster performance with Z
3) SP Is sleek . Z also. its little bigger becuase of the Screen Size. But design , Screen display quality and performance wise Z is the winner. And SP has a poor camera too..
Z Will get Android 4.4.2 KITKAT update by next month.
Overall U can not compare SP with Z. Both r different. Final Conclusion .
XPERIA Z IS THE REAL TIME WINNER . GO FOR IT... :good:
