Technology can be seen as greatly improving itself every day. Within the highly competitive mobile phone market, it’s not always the phone with the largest spec sheet that wins, but one that is able to have a good mix of performance and value. Compare them to get better insight into the features and match them with your requirements.
Sony Xperia Z
This phone has been well received in the largest gadget forums. It was released in September 2013 and since then people have generated a steady interest in this particular model. But are the features provided by it, still meeting people’s demands?
Design & Display
A sleek design is a specialty of Sony phones, and this phone is no exception. This model is powerful and sturdy, making it an ideal purchase for a casual user. The display feature boasts a 5 inch TFT screen with 1920 x 1080 pixels resolutions, which is in full HD. Sony has gone far enough to make this phone a waterproof one, and also dust resistant. It also has a TRILUMINOS display with X- reality feature.
Specifications, Camera & Battery
The camera deserves a special mention with 20.7 mega pixels primary camera and a 2 mega pixel secondary camera. The camera is equipped with high end features supporting the image editing. If you love photography, this is your phone. It also has digital zoom up to 8x and full HD recording video feature. However the 3000 mAh battery life is what gives it a cherry on top.
Nexus 4
This phone is quite popular among users. Owing to the reputation of its producer Google, this phone had promised the users to give them a high end phone. But can this phone beat the others of this category with its downright popular features?
Design & Display
Design wise this phone resembles Z1 – both are bar phones with an almost similar size. Nexus is 4.7 inches while Xperia Z1 is 5 inches in size. But Z1 has a TFT screen which the Nexus 4 lacks. Nexus phone does not have TRILUMINOS display but it has Corning Gorilla Glass 2 along with IPS display feature. So they both provide different quality of features.
Specifications, Camera & Battery
Compared to the 20.7 mega pixel of Xperia Z1, the Nexus 4 has only a 4 mega pixel camera. Not a reason to worry, if you do not worry about the camera feature of a phone. It also has a digital zooming up to only 4x, half that of Z1. It is however much lighter than Z1 in weight. The battery life of Nexus 4 is 2100 mAh Li-Po.
Overall
Nexus 4 is lagging behind Z in battery life, camera capacity as well as processor speed. Nexus 4 has 1.5 GHz while Z1 has a 2.2 Quad core processor. These key features make a clear distinction between the two phones.
