Comparison: iphone 5 vs. sony xperia z

Despite the fact that the iPhone can be considered the forerunner of the smartphone world , many people think that it has lost its appeal. In a way, having put up a circus has caused the dwarves to have grown. And Google has made it easy for all manufacturers with its Android operating system.

Today we are going to focus on the iPhone 5, but above all we will focus on the Sony Xperia Z. Let's be honest, Apple is clearly at a disadvantage in many ways. For example, the tradition in Cupertino is clear: a single, high-end device, updated every year. As for the design, that is even worse, since it is updated every two due to the S versions, which only change the internal hardware . If we are frank, Apple is doing very well, because despite not having several models of the iPhone, it sells them wonderfully.

On the other hand, Sony, Samsung, HTC, ZTE and Nokia are also going from strength to strength with different strategies. Speaking of Sony, they are doing a good job with their Xperia. The Xperia Z is a much more complete phone than the iPhone in terms of technology.

5 reasons to choose the Sony Xperia Z

• The screen of the Sony xperia Z has a much higher pixel density, specifically almost 36% more than the iPhone 5, 441 ppi compared to 326 ppi, respectively.The Sony Xperia has a much bigger and more durable battery. 2400 mAh compared to 1440 mAh. This means 1.70 times more durable. The screen is larger, 25% more than the iPhone, which is "only" 4 inches. Although I give it as a positive reason, measuring the quality of a phone by the size of its screen is actually very personal to me. If we continue with the screen, the resolution of the Xperia Z is 1920 x 1080 pixels, much larger than the iPhone 5, almost three times more in fact. The Californian phone has a resolution of 1136 x 640 pixels. The processor: four cores with a frequency of 1.5 GHz happily move the Xperia Z, while the iPhone 5 keeps two at 1.3 GHz. This does not actually have because to be conclusive, since iOS is much more optimized for this processor.

Apart from the five keys, there are other characteristics that make the Sony Xperia Z much better than the iPhone 5. For example, it can be loaded with a standard USB cable, it has a slot to expand the memory if the internal one is not enough and as something really striking, it is waterproof.

Of the iPhone 5 I do not consider it even important to talk, because it is very much in line with what Apple has been presenting for a long time. Perhaps that is the biggest problem with Apple: it does not show anything new, as in this case Sony, which presents us with a waterproof phone. Frankly speaking, the Sony Xperia Z is much better than the iPhone 5.

However, if you are a Mac user, you have an iPad, I recommend the iPhone 5. These three devices work together in an exceptional way and Apple has managed to create an ecosystem of devices and applications that is almost unsurpassed today.
