Does the new Xperia line such as Z / ZR have any pull down toggles for Wifi, Bluetooth and such? This is one feature of Samsung phones that I like a lot.
The Sony LWW that I have has been updated to ICS but I have to go to homescreen to toggle those things. Annoying.
Can anyone tell me about the performance of CPU / GPU on the Xperia ZR compared to Samsung S3? I am debating which one to get among these two.
The ZR seems to be better on paper w.r.t. RAM, water resistance (very useful in coastal Kerala), 2 GB RAM!!
Really worried about 8 GB internal memory of which only 3+ will be user available. I tend to install many many applications and need that space. And that too when they do not allow them to be moved to microSD.
And wonder why there is not a single review of it anywhere yet?

Yes, Z and ZR have pull down toggles. 4.2 update will give us 8 toggles.
Performance wise even the cheaper SP will own Galaxy S3, the Z/ZR totally owns the Galaxy S3
The 8 GB internal memory is a big issue. U will get around 5.3 or 5.8 GB depending on ur phone. Apps and games,alongwith their temp file,downloaded file,save file etc will be saved in ur internal memory. Games like NFS MW will eat up nearly 2GB ..i have like 50+ HD games,all ranging from 200MB upto 2GB, and i cant install more than 4 or 5 high end games at a time. There is no way u can have Real Racing 3, NFS MW and Bards Tale installed at a time.
Not just games,apps causes headache too. My 9gag app has over 60MB cache,cant modify the destination ofr saving pics. Video editors like FX Guru saves all "effects" in internal memory and that hogs up space like anything.
btw,my bro who owns Xperia Z is already low on internal memory
so i guess it all comes down to our personal usage..

No chance buddy... Galaxy S3 is a powerhouse. Superb camera, great screen, powerful processor, highly optimised implementation of Android.
Xperia SP is not in the same league as Galaxy S3.
Xperia Z/ZL/ZR is still using the same SOC as the Nexus 4. You can't get a better phone than that at the price. Even a Galaxy S4 cannot beat a Nexus 4 in smoothness and fluidity.

So many FREAKING Sony devices!
I hope they don't end up like HTC did back in 2011
