Review :: Galaxy s5 or Xperia Z3 Smartphone

Welcome to New Techno. Without any doubt, Sony scored big time with the successor of the Xperia Z2, making it water and dust resistant (IPS67 certified) like the previous model and offering a smaller version called Xperia Z3 Compact, with reduced components for those fans who can’t afford to buy the Z3. Against Sony’s flagship are fighting three other excellent smartphones: Samsung’s Galaxy S5 (IPS67 rated), LG’s G3 and Motorola’s X 2014 model, which is splash proof.

Designs and Dimensions

The  Xperia Z3 smartphone looks almost the same as its predecessor but it was equipped with two visible speakers on top and below the screen. The previous model has its speakers integrated between the frame and display. The device weights 152grams, it’s available in four colors and measures 146x72x 7.3mm. The back and the front panel are covered with shatterproof glass and the frame is metallic, and this is why the phone weights so much.

The Galaxy S5 smartphone has its unique polycarbonate rear panel with perforated dots, rounded edges and corners, it weights 145grams and measures 142×72.5×8.1mm.

The LG G3 smartphone has a brushed-metal back panel with an aluminum frame, its body dimensions are 146.3×74.6×8.9mm and its weight is 149grams.

The Moto X smartphone 2014 has a curved backing design and the real panel remind us of the Moto E. This phone weights less than its opponents, 144grams, while its dimensions are 140.8×72.4x10mm.

The last three phones are using Corning Gorilla Glass 3 for protection against scratches.
