My missus upgrade was today, after messing around in cpw she decided on the Z1, the build quality and screen are beautiful, makes my N4 seem dated.
Typing this using the Z1, will report back on battery life.

It will do what you want with ease. Only 16GB on board. Takes 64GB memory card ~£40.
The only issue with this phone IMO is that it's too big for a 5" screen. Too much bezel.
Had a lot of look at reviews on youtube of the Z1. Then went to CPW and had a play. Got to say as nice a phone as it looks, the screen lets it down, camera isn't really a 'wow' factor for me. I'll miss out on it and get the 5s.
I don't blame you.
If this had the screen from the GS4 and body size of the ZL - thus would be a killer handset.
I didn't have time but I'm sure I saw a note 3 from far there. The screen on that looked so amazing and vibrant.
The sony is a great device, very fluid and quick. Just the screen so badly lets it down. As soon as the screen goes off centre the colours look washed out. It's a pity as I was contemplating a move to Android.
I need to look at the Note 3, that's my next bet looks to be a great phone.
Had another go at the Z1, I'm guessing the first phone I used was borked. The Z1's screen isn't too shabby, and off centre viewing actually wasn't too bad. It could do with more brightness but it's actually a nice phone.
I viewed the forum on it using Chrome, but some posts had large fonts and some posts had small? Is this a problem with the browser it's self or the phone?

Yeah it's just a chrome fault on certain websites. There loads of browsers to choose from on Android.
I set a single browser up for forums by boosting text size so I can view it in portrait:
I use chrome for normal website viewing - just not forums.
Use the sd cards for media - no use for apps without rooting.
That's fine, music/videos/pics can go on the sd card as I seem to carry a lot of them.
Next question is, note 3 or Z1? I'm unsure what I want. I do prefer the note 3's screen, but prefer the way the sony looks. The samsung also can record in 4k which is a nice bonus, but I like the UI of the sony, it seems less cluttered then the samsung touchwiz. The 5" screen seems more natural the 5.7" seems rather on the large side.
I'm really unsure.

To me the 4k is a bit of a gimmick- there's very few screens that can play it back and the lens will certainly let it down. I'd go for the sony personally, touchwiz has always looked horrendous to meThat's fine, music/videos/pics can go on the sd card as I seem to carry a lot of them.
