Demitri_C Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Ive finally had enough of apple and after having various different iphones I am now looking at getting a android phone. I think I am going to get a sony z2, but im not 100% between that and the samsung s4. Any advice? I am edging towards the sony phone but never had a sony phone before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 OnePlus are having another round of pre orders for the One tomorrow. If you can get your hands on it, it's probably best value smartphone on the market at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lions_Roar Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 The things that puts me off the xperia phone is the update cycle. Rumours already that a z4 will be out in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 i ordered my z2 yesterday coming today cannot wiat. the way i look at it the z2 or z3 will be the equivalent of iphone 7 or 8 as pisses on both the new iphone 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) Why does a 6 month update cycle put you off? It makes it easier to get a more up to date phone from them, it's not like everyone upgrades at the same time. They also offer support for all of their recent releases, they haven't just forgotten about the Z2 now that the Z3 has come out. Either way, it's extremely likely that they will be moving to an annual release cycle, it's just not yet clear if the start of this will be the Z3 for a September annual release, or the Z4 for April, we'll find out soon enough.

Demitri_C Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 my friend has the z1 and he purchased that a while ago and its still a great phone and he is happy to keep it for a while, so even if the z4 comes out i expect the users of z2 and z3 will be happy with it for a significant period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
