Sony Xperia Z1
LG G2
Nokia Lumia 1320

HTC One M8, M8, I'm in love...iPhone quality,Android customability and a camera that's more than good enough (so ignore the fuss) for everyone other than the professional snapper!

Also, you won't just be an isheep, Samsung fanboy etc etc but will instead be supporting one of the industries true innovators with an Apple like approach to design (my wife's humble desire 500 is simple but beautifully designed) and hopefully help mIntain some true competition in the industry rather than us ending up (as I fear we will with only;
Apple (IOS)
Samsung(Android)
Nokia/Microsoft Mobile (Windows)

the 1320 is more a low end to mid range handset, where as the Z1 and G2 are more high end devices.

Out of these the Z1 and G2 are more similar in specs so i would recommend one of those seeming as the 1320 is a more low-mid range handset.

I would actually recommend the Nokia Lumia 930 which is coming out next month, beautiful designed high end windows 8.1 handset, this is what i am getting.

The posters on DS are amazing. You spend time narrowing down your choices and come up with a shortlist and ask for advice. Then all the “experts” say you don’t want that you want this other phone that is either considerably more expensive or somewhat unusual.

I don’t think you would be disappointed with either the Z1 or G2 but for me the best one is the G2. It is smaller than the Z1 with a bigger much much better screen. It has great battery life and also the camera produces better images than the Z1 (although Sony are improving their imaging processing algorithms). You will be aware of the differing designs and that the Z1 is a big square slab with glass back and front, whist the G2 is plastic with the volume/power controls on the back. Both designs have drawbacks. Both phones have 16gb internal storage (the 32gb G2 is hard to come by) but the Z1 does have a micro sd card slot if that is important to you.

The Lumia 1320 is a different kettle of fish. It has lower specs than the other two but is also a massive device. You would not be able to use it in the same way as the Z1 or G2. You really need to see one in the flesh, I have seen the slightly smaller Lumia 1520 in O2 shops if you want to compare. It only has 8gb of storage but you can add a micro sd card.

I would go g2 over z1 quite easily. If you meant z2 by any chance that would be different entirely.
