Worth it to upgrade to Z5 Compact from Z3 Compact?

[tbessie]

Hey all...

I have a Z3 Compact and wonder if it's worth it to upgrade to a Z5 compact? Is it significantly more speedy than the Z3 Compact? I don't care so much about the camera, fingerprint sensor, or lack of USB covers - more about speed/performance, battery life and good connectivity.

- You'll have less Free RAM because Z5 uses Android x64 (the difference could be something like 700-800MB vs 1100-1300MB on a cold boot). This will generate more app redraws. 

- You'll have the USB port more accesible

- Fingerprint sensor.

- Better camera, but not great camera (IMO). 

- And there is a bug I hate with the Adaptive Brightness that makes your black colors to become gray when you light sensor detects a lot of light (i.e.: outdoors). This is the worst bug in the Z5 line to me.
