Most Sony stores here in Aus have had demos for about 1 week now... I was using one at work the other day, pretty impressive... (no i dont work for Sony)
Yea I was at the Sony nunawading store
$750 with no dock.
an amazing phone to play with.
How did you find the display?
amazing! , i have an xperia s currently. which has a nice 720 screen.
the 1080 screen on the zed/zee looks even better,
i think all 1080 screens will look great from the likes of samsung s4? and new htcs.
in the end i think the xperia z has the upper hand because of the ip ratings for water and dust...
and gorilla glass  - so the rep says...
because they use it in there new tvs.
all have their plus and minus (sam, htc etc)
in the end everyone has their personal preference and what matters in the end to them
i choose sony xperia z.
i asked rep if xenon flash coming back - said not anytime soon

Don't get happy so quick, GSMArena screwed up the camera settings, just look at the exposure values. Wait for a REAL camera review from DPReview.com soon. Then we shall see which phone stands where, rather than getting excited over reviews from sites who can't even get settings right.

How could they screw up settings? They do this comparison many years, and they pick best shot from at least 10 photos. Even so, with Xperia "Superior auto" the phone itself should pick the best settings, ain't that right? And enlighten me how did they screw up video settings? There aren't many settings when taking video are there?  This is just the quality of Z cam... What's really sad is that competition uses the same if not worse sensor made by Sony, it shows that the potential of Z cam is very big, but is destroyed by bad software or lenses, hard to tell... It's a big shame for Sony anyway. |

And what is your opinion?
The XZ screen looks very good from this video. I donnot see any problems with it.
Hey RamU
Any news about XZ launch in India (Mumbai to be specific). I am getting too impatient.... There has been no advertisements by Sony for this phone, no news about the launch date.... Please say Sony will launch this phone on 28 Feb in India!!!

Wow, Sony again fails to deliver. I wonder how many letters they need after EXMOR to make it as good as competition?:D
Left is photo, right video, it's an improvement from Xperia T, but still fails against almost one year old competitor 
it was compared to two 2012 flagships with its new camera in hand and still produced such poor results??? Wtf is going on at Sony? Seems all they will ever be good at is making a pretty looking phone.
Sad but true, isn't it?
My disappointment is the call quality on that review. I still believe a phone should be a phone first then a smartphone and all the other things.
My brother's Lumia 920 is absolutely brilliant in call quality... but then, Nokia has always had amazing call quality.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009 |

Handtec is pretty reasonable imho. £414.99 = Rs 34,976.25. Has anybody preordered from Handtec?

@Randomuser
Any idea how much extra would one have to pay in INR over the above price?

I'll repeat again.
As per Sony Center @ Opera House, Mumbai.
Xperia Z will be available to them either on 24/25/26 February for PRE-ORDERS ONLY.
March 1 is the date when the distributors will send to retailers and so between March 1 to March 7 it should be there in every local retail shop.
Price is expected to be between Rs.36,000 to Rs.38,000. Max Rs.40,000 is possible but for not too long.
T200 -> T68i -> T610 -> K700i -> P910i -> W800i -> P990i -> M600i -> P1-> Nokia E71 -> X1i -> X10 -> Arc S -> Sony Z1 -> Sony Z Ultra -> Sony Z3+ -> iPhone 6 -> iPhone 7 Plus -> iPhone X -> iPhone XS Max |

The call quality is absolutely fine. I don't know what the folks at PhoneArena did to screw that up. It has quite some settings, even an equalizer (3 simple presets) for voice calls. You just set it the way you like your calls to sound. |
