The XL does not have a glass front and back like Yuga. Only plastic. But build quality is pretty good I guess. I like the fact that it has a great front and it's compact. A thicker body is better..less chances that it'll slip from your hands 
But I guess I'll try out both and then buy the one that feels the best!

Are there any advantages this phone has over the Z? I sort of like the front of this phone better.

Xperia Z has camera shutter. Not sure about notification light, but I hope it's also there. |

Are you living in a cave?
Z doesn't have any camera button. And that's a bummer.
As for light - Z probably has something similar to T..
ZL though has a nice light stripe.

I think doministry is right, but you guys forgot the main difference... Z is water resistant, ZL is not.
Edit: oops, just realized you were talking about ZL advantages and not just differences haha
I think the ZL will be more comfortable to hold.

Honestly? I don't give a sh...t about it.
I don't buy a smarphone to swim with it, you know.
I care about the features...
But yes, that's proably the biggest difference between Z and ZL.

WOAH!! Wickend.
- if there is an aftermarket solution that can make this IP5/7 for dust and water resistant and guaranteed full retail price of the phone if it fails without backing out of that warranty by said vendor a LOT of people will do this with the ZL.
I'm in Canada so the ZL will not be released where I live (probably in the USA as well) so the Z is suited to my tastes, yet I still must have that camera shutter button; unless volume keys can be used.
What gives ... why no camera shutter button? Volume keys are there so there is no reason for no shutter key is there!?
EDIT: Guarulhos, this ZL, like the Z does allow 1080P video recording on the front camera - or should.

I stand corrected my good man. Thank you.
PS: Any full time Ubuntu users here using Android phones have any experience or issues?
