weak speakers listed under the cons?
so the htc one speaker volume level is now considered weak?
this same guy demonstrated how powerful the speakers are when turned to full volume. he even posted a youtube video of it. |

Thats why I don't read and watch all those reviews and compare stories.
Always keep your own mind open and think for yourself.

Maybe weak speakers for incoming calls ringtone & speaker phone... I've read it in several places that it's weak compared to playing media and most other high-end phones...
Xperia blog even reported that ringtones and speaker phone will use only the lower speaker, the top speaker will not be used for these...
it's seems the top speaker is only used for media... I hope a future update will make it work...

He clarified his position on xda by saying:
"Weak speakers from low to medium, but acceptable at the higher range. Sorry should have made that more clear." |

He even put together a video showing the volume in different actions... calls/music... at different level...

blind photo comparison
http://translate.googleuserco[....]rhggxRAVQkN0vz92JxKqNkQk-4MVQQ
i find the photo comparison questionable but expected. they are taking photos with the xperia z2 from a distance farther than how they are taking with the two other phones. the m8's (3rd photos) should be the ones that look farther here because the m8 has the wider native aspect ratio. but it's the z2's' (1st photos) that look farther. they will naturally capture less detail based on the same size of represented image because of this. in their crops, the z2's images are blown up to match the size of the s5's photo. a blown up image will naturally look less sharp.

"Against
Size, colour saturation excess, uncomfortable to hold, Sony bloat software, vibration alert is over the top
"
As most of the review they complain size and shape, Sony Bloatware...
This is the first time I see a review complaining about vibration alert  It could became a sex toy I think!
In order as they appear on screen... from left to right... I think
HTC ONE M8---------------Z2------------S5
it screams 4 MPX------------pics looks good, a bit out of focus here and there----------------good pics but colours are oversaturated, unnatural...

i think it's Z2 - S5 - M8
if you look at them more closely, you can see that the third photo has the more obvious lower resolution. i've also seen gsmarena's s5 vs m8 comparison and m8 typically produces dark daylight photos.
the z2's too much exposure is quite apparent in the first photo. also, look at the photos of the texts, the first one is clearer than the third. i can say that the one in the middle is the s5 because of the way the light rays are shown. in s5 photos, the light rays don't look natural, they look noisy and smudged. also, the middle photos are generally darker so i am somewhat certain that it's really the s5. |

LOL
we disagree on every one
But after looking again... probably you are right about M8 being the third... especially in words and macro shots...
stil not sure about the first two tough... |

Screen I believe its Z2, M8 and S5 from left to right, one shots shows the last 2 with rounded corners gave them away anyway. first being the best, beautiful colors. Though first and last looks close, middle shows a good 2013 screen but now beaten by the competitors. Middle screen is also smaller than the rest so I am guessing its the 5" M8. Camera I am guessing its Z2, S5 and M8, first shots looks decent most of the time better than 3rd but also have focus issue lol Damn it sony sort out your software already. But things are looking better, noise level is significantly cut down from before (z1 old fw) Getting there lol

HTC One (M8), Samsung Galaxy S5 and Sony Xperia Z2 screen comparison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNLMpU7bZRI
basically he says that the Z2 has the best display when looking straight and comes last when looking from angles but angles are still good. this is very good for sony.  |
