I'd definitely get the Sony, at these differences in screen size and resolution you're probably going to prefer the Z's screen.
Also the water resistance is a very cool feature and could save you from accidental water damage.
I personally love how the Z looks, the Note II is just another samsung style slate.
I've had a Sony-Ericsson and some people i know have a Sony device and, as far as I know, nobody is complaining.
The build quality probably won't differ that much, although sony tends to use a stiffer plastic than samsung does.
But that doesn't really tell you anything about how tough a device is.
One thing I found on the web is that the Z was shipped with a wrong kind of tempered glass that cracks by itself, but that Sony will replace it on any phone that suffers from this (source).
