I should get my new SIM by tomorrow. The problem with my currently used SIM is that it is a very old one, abt 6+ yrs old. I showed it to a dealer and he said it is difficult to cut the SIM as the exposed contact area of SIM is quite big. Cutting will damaged the SIM card. So wait for just 1 more day!!!

That's odd  thought we had passed the days when Sonys cant play mkv via the built in player, that's an issue I had long ago in my Xperia X10.
Is it a high quality mkv e.g. HD1080P@30fps? Maybe the Z has a problem with those.
mkv's can have different types of video and audio format, mkv is just a container, also depending on the profile level of an h264 video inside the mkv, it can have anywhere from low 480p to high resolution 4k, different framerates (although usually 24 fps) and could either be 8 bit or 10 bit.
so far 10 bit always has issues with phones, haven't seen a tablet or phone yet that can play a hi10p mkv video properly even if you use a dedicated video player app, hardware does not support it, and if done through software decoding, there's not enough processing power yet on a mobile phone that can handle hi10p software decoding.

Earlier my Z would show standby time of 14-15 hours and more than one day if I activated stamina mode. Nowadays it's showing standby time of just 7 hours and 13 hours if I activate stamina mode. What went wrong? Is it some app I must have installed? or is this the normal standby time?
My brightness is set to minimum and autobrightness is off.
Anybody has something to say about this?
@pbhat
When is the new headset slated to launch here? I love the MW600. When it works, why bother
Even I'm facing this. Anybody knows where we are going wrong?

Thanks Indiandawg!!!
I should be getting my SIM tonight. So its NEW PHONE from tomorrow onwards!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW... I think the phone might require some charging cycles before the battery capacity show. I too ama facing the same problem. When I newly opened the phone the battery was at 65% by end of the day it had come down to 35%. Mostly the screen and Bluetooth was used to transfer some file. I will do a proper test from tomorrow onwards.

If the answer to the above is "yes" ; does the xperia z support an usb DAC?

I don't think so as they don't mention anything related to it.
But I found somewhere else about USB DAC if interested: http://www.head-fi.org/t/595071/android-phones-and-usb-dacs

Yes it does and is called USB OTG in the Android world.

Yes it support USB OTG, usb flash yes but not all of usb hard drives, some might require external power adapter and some might not work even with that duo to higher power consumption of these hdds specially the newer usb3 ones...
regarding USB DAC, I remember seeing Xperia Z supports some in XDA-Dev... but I'm not sure...
