Main difference: processor prone to overheating vs stable cpu

I haven't got a z3 plus u can see on every to YouTube video that u can only take 2 seconds of video before the camera app closes because of overheating. I only have the z3 and it's battery is epic. I do have a z5premium but I just got it so did mention z3 battery is better than the z5premiums. Z5premium has more mah but z3 battery beat it like nothing

I bought the xperia Z3 on the first week of December and have no regrets. I've waited so long to the point the Z4/Z3+ and the Z5 series have came out. But i still went with the Z3 for a number of reasons. The Z3+/Z4 and the Z5 both have Snapdragon810 which is known as the 2015 flagship phone killer. The reason for this is any android device with Snapdragon810 overheats more so than the average Smartphone to the point it affects the performance of the phone. Sony has seemed to fix this with the Z5 by adding dual pipes inside the system to help combat the overheating which works. The Z3+ on the other hand still overheats and as a result the phone itself hasn't even made it to retailer stores in many countries. The Z3/Z3 compact in general are known to have one of the best (if not the best) battery life performances today.
The only good thing about the Z3+ is it's slightly thinner than the Z3 and Z5 but that isn't a good enough of a reason to choose the Z3+ over the Z3/Z5 due to the overheating issues mentioned earlier.
Buy the Z3 if: You want the greater battery life and a stable phone. Buy the Z5 if: you want the best camera and a fingerprint scanner.
Due to the great support from Sony and many updates to the Z3, the Z3 performs very well for a 2014 flagship phone. Also to mention the Xda community for this device is awesome and great.
In my own preference: Z3>Z5>Z3+ or Z5>Z3>Z3+ (you choose if you prefer the Z3 or the Z5)
