I have ordered mine via O2 in the UK and I have conformation my white Xperia Z1 and free QX10 Smart Lens will be available for collection at my local store this Friday.
Did you order online? I did but all my order says is 'in progress'. As far as I know it will be delivered on Friday. Did you request to collect? How did you get confirmation? E-mail? Text?
Sorry for all the questions. I travel to the states on Saturday and want this before I go!
I actually work for O2 and yes all orders made before 6pm on Wednesday the 18th will either be delivered to a store of choice via click and collect or to an address of your choice on Friday the 20th along with your free Smart Lens. You should receive a dispatch email within the next 48 hours just to confirm it all.

This is from an italian blog I really care (the only italian blog I care about actually)... this are the only italian review I read because it's different from the others, this guy is not really expert, but he knows it and his review do not want to teach you anything, ho do not use strange words or talks too much about geeky hardware... he uses the phone and talks bout impression, feeling, normal life usage! I love his reviews and his videos 
BTW I was in love with Z1 before and now I'm completely lost in it It's my perfect phone... sadly I'll have to wait till december/january... but it'll be mine! I'll eat every pic and impression you will post 
Thanks guys! |

a video review .. pretty much covers everything we've seen before.. but he also reviews the QX10 lens with it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEHd4kLNotc&feature=youtu.be&a
main points according to him -
1) sturdy and premium design, looks nice but finger print magnet (we knew this)
2) screen is gorgeous but doesn't have perfect viewing angles, however, isn't a a real issue (we knew this)
3) speaker placement is not great (personal preference i guess..?)
4) too big for one handed use (again personal preference)
5) camera is not that impressive (he just shows some samples but doesn't discuss too much on how he tested it)
6) conclusion - best smartphone sony has to date and great phone overall.
qx10
1) easy pairing
2) nice sharp pics in good lighting
3) low light photos suffer a bit as its difficult to focus cause there's no flash
4) zoom is good (he shows a 1x, 2x, and 10x example.. 10x is kinda funny but i approve! (you'll see))

This video clip just shows how good the image stabilization is.
Not that we didn't know about it already.
The image quality in full zoom is abhorrent, but just look how insanely stable it is still.

If you are going to spend money on a phone this expensive; you sure as hell want to be sure you get the better Z1 with a display that has 1500:1 contrast ratio.
I simply want to have the opportunity to try my phone out, before I purchase it.
Should it fail on me, my money will be spent on Sony RX100 II instead.
After all my Galaxy Note II is still an amazing phone.

Still not... he buys his phone and also has a radio program, he need to use the devices for at least 2-3 weeks before reviewing them  ... so his review normally takes about a month or two to come, it also depends on how much the device impress him he did not review the LG G2 still because, design wise for him it was horrendhous, but he is already trying a Z1 because he found it AMAZING  |
