I have only had the tablet in for review for 2 weeks, so I am afraid that I won't be able to answer your question

The photo comparisons of all three phones, Is it me or does it look like Galaxy S5 camera is better :/
In this video I will compare the 2 generations of Sony’s compact flagship models from the Z series and show you all of the differences between devices. Will the Xperia Z3 Compact prove to be a worthy successor to the brilliant Z1 Compact?

Well...
After watching video, considering everything, I'll not change Z1C for newer model... :angel:
Anyone familiar with the kickstarter project COBI?
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cobi/cobi-worlds-smartest-connected-biking-system
Looks really nice for biking enthusiasts, only problem is that our Sony Xperia Z3 Compact is not supported at the moment.
If you also want support for the Z3C please vote here: http://eepurl.com/-x2zD

+1 That's going to be nice if it makes it to market. And with the Z3C being waterproof we wouldn't need and extra cover.
looks to be an innovative solution. One flaw is the Z3 needs to be in portrait to be visible with polarised sunglasses.
I've modded a Z3C as a bike computer and having good results so far
very interesting project, thanks for sharing

Haha, thanks for the link. I came here after surfing the web and reading every article on WMC. Sony launched the z4 tablet, and the M4 Aqua mid-range phone. None of these two products interfere with the z3 compact, and so far I'm thinking we won't actually see a z4 tablet compact
I'm hoping we will though, because that will mean a huge price drop for the Z3TC - but unlikely as it isn't even a year old yet.
Sony said they will cut down product releases this year. I was surprised there wasn't a z4 phone at mwc, I guess they will release it later, with probably the same specs as the z4 tablet. Also, the z4 tab is more of a z2 tab succesor.
The good news is that the new devices come with lollipop pre-installed, so we're probably getting it soon as well.

Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet First Look!: http://youtu.be/sjo0IUEy3Ec
This a hands on video with the new device and a small preview of the new xperia ui with lollipop.
My z3tc is white as well, and when I'm looking at the video it's like like seeing a bigger version of my tab. They look very similar and the materials are probably the same.
So, Is it really worth waiting for Z4 or can I get Z3TC? No reading, just watching videos and a bit of browsing. I'm driving myself nuts trying to decide between Z3TC and Nexus 9.
I tried different tabs before getting the sony, and having a note 3 I'm pretty spoiled with quality. The z3tc is a really great device, solid build qualitty, decent screen and great performance. The z4 is definetly better, with a much better cpu and gpu, and also a very good display. It's obviously better for watching videos and mostly everything. So it's up to preference, I prefer a smaller and more compact tablet, but if you prefer larger devices, then the z4 is definitely the better choice.
Hi-res bluetooth
For me one of the most interesting things about the Z4 is the new Sony LDAC Bluetooth codec.
The Sony LDAC codec allows Bluetooth audio streaming at 24 bit Hi-res quality.
Whereas with normal Bluetooth you can stream up to CD quality 44khz the new LDAC codec can supposedly stream 3X the data.

Of course you also need LDAC headphones and speakers.
If it is just software then hopefully Sony can give us an update with it.
Here's my video review of OPPO's Find X5 Pro not as an Oppo Ambassador but viewed as a tech reviewer and user. Exactly what you can expect out of this Find X5 Pro flagship. The pros and cons. Overall it's a great phone and with a few software fixes like the audio bitrate plus a minor price reduction, it will be the 2022 Android flagship to beat!
