I have a Xperia Z2 and just used 4k for tests of overheating.
The limit was 11:28 till the phone get hot.
For me it's useless.
I always use 1080p@60fps or timeshift.
But is better with it than without it.
Are you nervous? |

For those who have ordered, there is the Style Up active cover available from Clove, although it isn't yet listed on the sonymobile.com site.

Apple iPhone 6 vs Xperia Z3 Compact
They will argue about the camera, they will about the display, even with the design. But the price, it's a no-brainer. This is a really big win for Sony, shame they aren't pushing the Compact to battle with the iPhone head on in terms of marketing.

Yeah, it's a great price right now. Clove are also sending out a bunch of accessories if they hit the 600 pre-order mark over the weekend, which I think they have done.
They really should push it more especially in the US, which they will be able to with the help of a couple of networks, if the rumours are true.
It should do really well in the UK as all the networks are ranging it (one having an exclusive on the green version).

Just played with a Z3 and Z3C at a Sony Xperia bus in Birmingham city centre. Will share photos later. Picture saving on the Z3 felt a bit slow unfortunately but I preferred the feel of the Compact.

@Bono What were your first impressions?
I'd have liked to have had a play with it before I dived in and made the purchase but I couldn't wait.
I'm upgrading from the Xperia Z so I'm expecting a smaller more refined phone with many improvements and much better battery life.
It's getting great reviews, I just hope I don't fall into the early adopters trap.

Tried it and was very impressed. I'm a Z1C user and straight away the additional screen size on the Z3C makes it look great. Nice bright display, excellent size and feels more ergonomic than the Z1C. I'm still loving my Z1C in lime so I'll skip until they make one with a 64 bit chip and the rumoured curved camera lens. The Compact phones are awesome and I'd suggest anyone who is uncomfortable with 5+ inch phones to check it out because it's a masterpiece. My negative points are that the plastic back may be a scratch magnet and the Z1C notification light looks better. The Sony UI looks a little dated but I imagine that'll will change eventually. All the colours look striking but I like the white front a lot. |

@Goldenface both phones felt slimmer and well built and a lot lighter than previous models. Prefered the feeling of the Compact a lot more. The Z3 I used the camera was a little sluggish but it's not final firmware. I might get a Compact in white not yet though I am not becoming an early adopter again with a Sony. And I wanna see how the images are from users in real life not just reviews cos the Z2 I had was terribly blurry

That was my first mistake when I was quick to buy the z1. I did notice the lag on some videos of the photos being taken. |

It was a little slow saving photos but as I said early firmware.
