Without a doubt.

If you have spare money - don't even think, upgrade. It's a phone you'll be happy with for many many months, and it's so much better than S in almost every aspect.

I guess i should have expected thosr answers im just a student though amd dont really have a lot of money

For those who have had/used both how do the screens compare i was more than happy with my XS.

I have both the S & Z, The Z is so much quicker and responsive everything is just a better experience,
But if money is tight It may be worth waiting to see what the S Jelly Bean experience is like.
Of course if you want the bigger beautiful screen and are in the habit of dropping your phone in the Loo then the upgrade to the Z is a no-brainer easily the best phone available at the moment (In my opinion)

AW: Upgrade from XS
I guess ill just hope XS JB will ne good else ill wait till i have enough money

Strange you should mention that, I'm (trying) to port Sense to Xperia Z.
I don't think it will work.
Maybe some other member could do it?
I'm too busy.

I have seen this sort of thing many times. The usual result of porting sense is a partially broken really buggy ROM worth nobody's time. Not saying its impossible, but its a ridiculous amount of work especially if you want it to be stable. Best way I guess is to port it from a HTC device with similar hardware, then at least half the battle is won

I think Xperia'Keyboard is better than Htc'keyboard :highfive:

So many have tried and failed. Not being negative but you might as well write a modded android version from root

true haha, everything is possible here on xda

I would not say that as the LT28at is perma locked with no fastboot. I suspect the T Mo Z is the same way.

i guess will find out :good:

That's it its going back to the store. Its a 2012 phone. Its not polished its half ass. It can't compete with HTC one and GS4. I can't believe I wasted time believing this time Sony made it right. The whole phone is crap camera, screen, the power button looks like a nipple. Sony is gone. Sorry guys for being hursh. Its just I wanted some quality but it was not it.

I got mine yesterday. I'm impressed with it so far and I coming from a S4. I had original Evo then switched to Sammy for the I think all of the Galaxy phones. Also had a HTC one but wanted to try the Sony for something different. Yes I have issues. lol

I purchased this phone yesterday and I have to say I'm not impressed at all. Coming from a Note II this feels like a really cheap phone! The battery is the most important feature of a smartphone. ..this phone lacks this feature among other thing. I switched back to my Note II and as soon as I return from my vacation the phone is going back to T-Mobile!

XPERIA T no update to android 4.3

Looks like it is made by a 5 year old and Xperia T is twice in the image, 1 with YES and 1 with NO.
Looks fake to me.
Edit: And the Google edition of the Xperia Z will be updated by google of course... and don't know why it is in here anyway

I don't care anymore. OmniRom is gonna be the bomb and after my T it's gonna be a Nexus

I was going to get a nexus 4 instead of my crappy xperia t but no sd card slot was the problem. I regret buying this phone and worst of all I can't unlock the bootloader

Different strokes... Wait until you take a picture on the Nexus 4 (or from what the specs say the 5). Unlike the Sony, it is truly horrible camera.
The trick is never buy a subsidized phone, then it won't be simlocked or bootloader locked. That was an option with the Xperia T. I picked up mine for $279 at newegg.

The camera on my t is rubbish. When you take a video all you can here is a clicking noise from the camera

just to make sure what u talking about...you mean a noisy autofocus rattle sound, in videos?
if thats what you mean, i had that too with some Roms, but with omniRom its gone for me. dont know why. guess its a problem with some mic or whatever. happen for me just with some roms, not with all...crazy huh
thats your problem?

Maybe the Xperia T LTE is the one getting 4.3 update. I think the 3G one will not get the update. Maybe i'm wrong.

Neither are just like what happened to my play. A phone with specs good enough but not given the updates on purpose. If sony want to gain the market they need to release 1 flagship a year and support their previous flagships for longer than 5 months. The galaxy s3 is older and is getting android 4.3 and why aren't we?

You should read the first line in that article ...
Update: Sony has confirmed that it has nothing to do with the image and that the it isn't the real deal. Move along guys, nothing to see here.

I also will no longer support Sony's devices after this, kind of a slap in the face. They can take their T and stick it

this is what sony deserve after they screwed my over twice. First with my xperia play now with phone. No wonder why xperias depreciate so quickly

Because no update to new version and sony bad, nexus cool because google. New version is good, because it keeps on battery half hour longer/lasts shorter but better. And profiles/new function in camera which i will use two times in my life/better integration with google plus omg! And no new version means that flagship abandoned. I am betrayed. sony bad.
To be honest i don't understand it too. When it comes - it comes. If not - who cares. Update from 2.3 to 4.0 was a big deal, because everything changed. API, nature of Android etc. GB slowly died and became incompatible with many interesting apps.
But update from one jelly bean to another? Dudes... It's only features!
Please just be happy that Sony released quite recent well written Android version. It's highly optimized and allows to do almost everything that is available to 4.2 and 4.3 devices..

apart from the fact that it melts the back of your phone so hot you can't touch it

Helllo, I have a xperia Z1 (unused) should I change it for a nexus 5? Is it really worth it (the Z1)?

Nexus 5 - camera sucks, battery sucks

Well not for me, it depends on your preference.
LG G2 design and quality is better than S4 I came from S4 to G2 before owning Z1. I really like the way LG designed G2, from buttons, bezel, screen size and curve sides, the only downside for me is the lack of sd slot.

I have owned a Galaxy nexus and a nexus 4, the Z1 is very nice, the only thing I really hate is the bloatware, and the slow OS updates (still in 4.2.2), but the Z1 looks great, other than that I really like the phone. The nexus 5, well is a nexus.
