Z play vs z2 play

[bryanmsi]

I decided to go Z2 Play. it came with free JBL mod offer which sweetened the deal. I like the metal back. or mostly the idea of it being more durable since I rarely carry the phone naked an so never see the back.

The camera sounded like a step up and I hope that I get Android updates for one additional year vs. the Z.

battery life on the Z2 has been incredible. I get two days of normal (normal for me) use so I can only imagine how amazing the Z Play is. But the Z2 is more than enough battery for me.

I doubt the speed is much different between the two.

At $408 with free JBL I skew toward Z2. At $499 unlocked with no free mod the Z is a no-brainer!

I love this phone!

How's the camera compare?

Hard to say since I don't have a Z Play to compare to my Z2. The Z2 is 12 mpixel vs 16 mpixel on the Z, and should be better in spite of what might seem a lower resolution. Z2 also has a wider aperture (more light let in and shallower depth of field) and laser autofocus.

Where did you find the deal with the free JBL Mod? That is my favorite mod out of all of them.

If your on Verizon go with the z2, it's $10 a month. Build quality is even better then the z play. And the battery has been pretty close to the z play. Just my 2 cents
