Xperia Z Officially Announced |

1) Show me more rugged devices that offer the same level of functionality as S4 Active and Xperia Z. I specifically said rugged devices that offer full smartphone experience, runbo x5 is closest thing to this kind of device (and actually is quite nice with great battery life, almost one week with dual SIM)
2) And yet we don't know how many were unintentionally exposed to water without full protection.
3) Maybe so, but some of use users here act like there was this holy grail of devices and nothing else can even compare.
4) As I said, his words never mentioned that service center said anything about unglued back cover and just because things like that happened it doesn't automatically mean that this it the case with OffLineR's device.
5) I'll try to find first information regarding GPU clocks of samsung octa used in S4. Cause IIRC the public knowledge at that time was that it runs at max 533mhz then something went terribly wrong in Samsungs PR department. |

Knowing how many problems and headache has Z given its owners up to date, and now comes this... Well, I can't help but feel sorry for all the unlucky people, who spend so much money on this small piece of sh*t...
Display and camera issues, overheating, sudden death, poor battery life, Wi-Fi dropping, low speaker volume, consistant lags and now poor water resistance... Is there anything Xperia Z is really capable of? Some suffer from this, some suffer from that, some suffer from something else... Well, is there at least one Z owner, who hasn't faced any problems with Z at all? I mean normal people. Not the fanboys in this forum, I don't expect any of them to have faced any of the already mentioned problems or take them seriously, because:
First option: they have managed to buy some special Z's that don't suffer from any problems at all ( very unlickely );
Second option: they have already got used to fixing or living various problems with their phones and finding and fixing another one is not a big deal ( that's why they love Sony and just can't understand why others don't ). Their excuse in this case:
Nobody here ever said that any phone has no flaws.
True, but this one has quite a lot of flaws, and saying "a lot" I mean - A LOT! Much much more than any Galaxy so far. I am not saying "buy Samsung", because from customer view everything is better than Z.

The new update for xperia z improves a lot. I was not very happy with previous update, luckily the new solve everything. And I like the new socialife app a lot. Now socialife app is my default fb app.
I would love to use Socialife as well since it looks so good.
But it doesn't give even half of the functionality you have with regular FB app.
And I need this in my usage.
The new socialife provides good fb functionality. The only lacking is share button, as of now, I couldn't find ways to share any status. Other than that, I think it can do everything pretty much.
Are you kidding? There is no video/photo sharing. There is no people mention in posts. Etc.
And you can't view the person's whole profile either, AFAIK.

Absolutely nothing wrong with my Z. Firmware updates over heating. The phone is very pleasant to have. Poor battery life?? Compared to what?? The battery life is pretty decent/good especially with stamina mode on.

Thanks to poor support from Sony Mobile Turkey, Xperia Z seems to be my last Sony(Ericsson) phone after quite a long time.
T18i
T28i
T68i
P900
P1i
Xperia X10
Xperia RAY
Xperia P
Xperia Z
Xperia Tablet S
Xperia Tablet S 3G
I still have these phones in my possession apart from T18i and T28i.
Sony Mobile Turkey Customer support is useless

Honami is touted to have a new UI. Can we expect to get the New UI with the Android 4.3 update?

T-mobile in the US has that phone now available. I am tempted to upgrade from my S3.

The new UI on honami is actually the same as what Z Ultra has. So isn't really 'new' as Z Ultra has been on the market for a number of weeks.
I believe we will get a UI update with 4.3, but I don't expect massive changes.
@offliner What happened with the customer support?

I don't know all the differences as I've not had a proper play with it but as far as I know it's things like the settings menu background is very light instead of black and a few of the icons have had a minor facelift. I don't know of much else but probably a little more home screen and app draw customisability. It is still 4.2 as we have on Z and so doesn't have any new android features, only minor visual changes.

It came to my attention that there is no longer the sms feature Doodle in the messaging. I had it on my Xperia TX, my sister have it on her xperia SP. I thought i had it on the Z. So where did it go? Can i get it back?

My music doesn't play through my headphones anymore. Everytime I insert my headphones the music just plays through the speakers. Can this be a software or hardware issue? I have the latest 4.2.2 |
