Question

Getting a new Droid phone!

Mar 21, 2013 1:02AM PDT

I'll be at the end of my contract this summer, so that means it's upgrade time. After looking around and doing a small deal of trial and error, two phones in particular seem like the best ones for me: the HTC Droid DNA, and the Sony Xperia Z smartphone.

What do you guys think would be better?

I'd go with a Xperia Z. It's resistance to water and dust is a major factor influencing the choice. Other than that, both devices are decent.

I don't know why (may be due to lots of reviews I read) but I trust HTC more than Sony. Even thought I used to be a Sony fan before.
