Been a while since I've posted in this forum, but I'm planning to buy a new smartphone in a month or so.
*I will likely be using this phone in Japan with Docomo.
I'm currently debating between the AQUOS ZETA and Xperia Z2, leaning towards the ZETA.
Here are my reasons for leaning towards the ZETA:
- Better battery, bigger screen, a bit lighter
- Antenna for TV isn't separate
- Orange and white versions are matte so less of a fingerprint magnet (would like impressions on this if possible)
- Camera functions (such as the framing adviser and photo sphere) are neat
- Doesn't get as heated (?)
- Has infrared connectivity
- Grip Magic and One-Hand assist seem neat
- Personally like the EDGEST design over the Z2
Reasons why I'm still debating:
- ZETA (well, Sharp for that matter) still uses the "glass safety film"
- Z2 has 3GB RAM while ZETA only has 2GB, dunno if it will impact me too much though
- I heard that one of the reasons why the ZETA has longer battery life is because it clocks down its processor and graphics
- Z2 is root-able while the ZETA isn't (I may want to root/flash in the future)
Is there anything I'm missing? I know posts will likely be biased since this is in the ZETA thread, but I'd just like some input from experienced owners. Thanks for any input~
