Out of curiosity, did anyone have their order from Clove shipped yet?

Kind of wish that manufacturer will sell unlocked version of these products outside of Japan. Definitely would buy one of these, even if there's a premium, if I can actually use it with my carrier of choice. Honestly, with the Z1 design, I think it would look nice if they have some sort of Anime/Manga theme in the back.

So looks like Z1 viewing angles may be made perfect with software updates?  |

@king-james - i thought you were skipping Z1 and getting note 3?
@randomuser - i think that's unlikely. it's the similar argument of increasing the color gamut of an LCD panel using software alone. Viewing angles are a property of the LCD panel itself. I personally don't believe any type of software update can improve on it.. i call shenanigans in that video!
I think this is the same "problem" that was talked about earlier.. where brightness level is simply just too high for such a completely dark room, allowing for backlight bleeding to occur and giving the illusion of much worse viewing angles. I bet if he did the same tests in a well lit room, it'd be fine.

Also, if I recall, UK launch is today. If you get your Z1 today or in the next few days, please give your first impression thoughts as to the most contested issues being discussed in this thread.
1) screen colors & viewing angles
2) camera use & current firmware picture quality (post samples with firmware if you like)
3) one handed use due to its size
4) overall impressions
Thanks!

Moogoo, where did I say that I buy Z1? I'm using Z Ultra at the moment... Z1 has a too small display for me and it isn't so sexy like ultra.

It's an Asian with small hands.
That is probably why it could look thicker than it usually does.

Bad news for those who are ordering from UK, more so for Clove & Handtec, the white Z1 is being delayed to 9/23.

http://blog.handtec.co.uk/in-[....]d-sept-free-sony-smartwacth-2/
Also, do not be surprised if your SmartWatch 2, if that's your free gift, does not come along with your Z1. It's actually going to arrive later, around the end of this month.

Not trying to attack you, just want to let you know something about your comment. That comment is a bit inappropriate regardless of your intention because it sounds very racist. Could've word it better, maybe along the line of, "That's a small hand holding the phone".
