I've not used either phone, but particularly if you prefer smaller phones I would go with the Z1 Compact. It's 4.3" as opposed to the Z's 5" screen.
Both phones have good specs, I wouldn't worry about either of them becoming unusably ancient over the next 2 years. The Z1 has a faster processor, but they both have 2GB of RAM. The Z1 also has the latest version of Android already available, while it's merely 'planned' for the Z (and as it's an older device, I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't see it at all or not for a very long time).
It depends if you can live with 1GB data too of course. But if you can and you want a smaller device, the Z1 seems like the best option.
