^^^Mine also takes almost 3hrs for full charge...so is it normal???
I think we will have to buy the "Quick Charger" if they launch something like that. Xperia S had one. They might launch for Xperia Z.
I tested the headphones. They are good and the sound is great. I have one gripe though. In my earlier phone W960 it had to keep the volume at just 2 or 3 notches for a good volume over earphones, but in XZ it have to keep it at almost max (2 notches less) for proper volume.

As promised comparison photos from my own Xperia S, TX and Z from top to bottom. Maybe next week I'll have a go at comparing against older Cybershot Sony Ericssons.
Full auto, 9MP, 10MP and 9MP respectively. Z seems to have better clarity but an odd pink heavy colour balance, TX was poor. Hopefully a FW update will fix a bit of the colour reproduction on Z unless the colour is in the lens coating or something.
Top to bottom:
Xperia S
Xperia TX
Xperia Z
Original
Original
I'll try and show the difference in the TX and Z screens later. Obviously the screen tech is different. When the screen is off the Z screen has a slight blue/purple tinge to it. When on Z has a better contrast but TX has far superior viewing angles, Z washes quite quickly, TX doesn't have a bad angle.
TX screen type 'b' (which I read as the best), Z has Sharp made screen. It's fine when viewing normally, but TX screen is the best screen I've seen on a Sony phone hands down.
I have a dig bick You read that wrong |

I don't know if this had been posted. Anyway, the contrast and black are nice.

Maia: it's a little hard to believe you got any Americans to import the Z from Europe and at the full unsubsidized price, let alone 110 people. But congrats anyway on that achievement! |

i can post there names and there Clove accounts if you want ))
my main problem i face it before that most of them more than 90 of the 110 are either ex Apple or ex Samsung
and to promote a device to compete with Apple or Samsung , you must have the device itself , and in this past time i didn't have any device as a show device , but i keep send them videos for Dragon Trail , for the welcoming of the device and how many people watch the video , nothing was in my hand except videos , video about the beginning of SONY , and SONY will come back , etc , for all of them SONY will not making a mobile phone , they always laugh at my Xperias and said to me that i am nut & crazy to buy this poor devices instead of the most popular one , even one of them named me SONY freak and the other said i have phobia from living without SONY , and just from one hour those 2 paid already for there new XZs so the number now is 112 , lastly most of them have kids that always damage there Sams & Fruits , and after they saw what this phone capable for , the one that said before i am a SONY freak , he give his iphone 5 away for XZ |

Ricky, thanks for the confirmation! I knew TX would beat Z...
BTW, like I've expected, HTC ONE beat the Z in battery:
"HTC has been putting out some excellent screens recently and the One's display is just another example of this.
The contrast is impressive and the viewing angles are extremely wide - there's no shift in colors and only a slight contrast loss at extreme angles."
This is what I want from SONY!
