I am planning to buy my first smartphone and I want the Sony brand (and I am sticking with it, don't want Samsung, apple or anything else). Which phone should I buy, the Z or the Z ultra or wait for i1 honami?

Thanks!!
 
Solution
I would go for the i1 myself. Just because of the 20mp camera and a smaller screen. (It still a big screen dont get me wrong).
Reason of not to get the Samsung. For my own experience on the Samsung n7100 (note 2)
Kills 3 of my micro sd card in 9 months.
I did a drop from about a feet and I got a cracked screen.
My usb connection is dead in 6 months.
I hold 2 batteries because it doesn't last a full day.

Besides that it a good phone lol

yeah, I don't like Samsung. I can't explain why. I know galaxy s3 and s4 are very good phones. and I know that note will be great but I just don't feel he brand.

I think im just going to wait for the Xperia Z1 (aka i1 Honami). Z ultra is ultra large and its too large for a phone, its like a phablet as they say. thanks to all!! ^_^
