I am so happy! I am a proud second owner of a Sony Z5!

Got it yesterday...bought in Ebay.uk.

I am using it now and my K700i has been demoted to its box. Haha!

Its simple, text and call, no hassle and its so stylish!

I love it!


Anyone else have this phone?

Congratulations mate that is a great piece of hardware you have there! I never actually had the pleasure of owning a Z5 but did however get the Z7 and still have it and it is great!

Happy Fishing!

I loved my CMD Z1 argh memories that boomb mic that used to drop down from the side...that phone was ahead of its time. I think I should go hunting for one...be a bit retro.

You got this instead of K700? I'm confused.

Posted by BobaFett
yes, imo he do prefers to use this now, but i liked to use retro fones as second fone mainly

Z5 was my first ever phone, may get another one just to refresh my memory

I'm lucky, I have two....

1 bought within the last year for spares, but works!

The other.......is still in daily service.......since 2001......

That Z7 is pure style, definitely a classic.

I remember everyone raving about them when it came out.

Mmm, thinking of buying one now.

I tried to get one of those knocked of when they were hard to get lol
unfortuanatley no luck pity ESATO wasn't around back then

For now, this is my primary phone because I have yet to buy another SIM card for it. So I'm just enjoying my new purchase.

It's not in perfect condition though..has some paint chips on the side. Fortunately, its not very noticeable.


Anyone know any tips/tricks on this phone?


Pics coming soon!

CMD-Z1 rocked the world! Not Z5 or Z7... That sticking out Mic was a stunning thing!!!

I wish they would do a successor for the Sony Z series that is:

1. small like the Z5
2. flip
3. jog dial
4. good quality materials.
5. fashion phone

There arent many flip phones out there except for the P series phones which are huge! The jog dial is also a plus.

IMO, the Sony Z series still look great compared to many phones released today.

I agree with that. There might be a problem with incorporating the larger screen that people see as standard these days but I'm sure there would be a way around it.

It sort of look like a P990i but with the screen half as big and the number pad where the qwerty is.

I have a J70 in mint condition still with charger, brilliant phone.


Posted by Supa_Fly
quilla_b thats the one.

I couldn't tell it was in another person's avatar. even THEN sony had quality headphones!

That Optical Digital cord was amazing! I had it on my MiniDisc Record MZ-70 and it was perfect for copying CD's to MiniDisc without a PC. I wish more Sony Products still had this feature. I shouldn't have sold my desktop stereo that had it. Now I gotta look for one in the ghetto shops to see if its still available.
