I actually ended up with the mint green by mistake. I said to the guy what colours do you have in stock. I said I'll have white or green but would prefer white. Anyway he came back, paid for it but I didn't know he gave me a green one till I left the store. But now I actually think it looks nicer than the white one so am happy  Just need some more sunlight for some more photos

I really think the Z3C is the smartphone of the year. It just simply can't put a foot wrong and I've yet to read a negative review. It is probably the best Xperia device to date and I would think it is out selling it's big brother and this is the phone Sony really need to push it simply is that damn good.
Well perhaps not immediately...i'm enjoying the exclusivity element at the moment.

Between 4.6 to 5 inches is the sweet spot(though many women would say different)  screen size!! I,for a long time was always loving massive screens but started to feel handling them on a day to day basis I was forever scared of dropping them. And whilst we're rushing about our daily lives these days using a smartphone one handed with ease is refreshing. I have heard many people in stores before laugh at the size of say a Lumia 1520 for example

I've paired a Smartband with my Z3C which is always connected. The battery life is still amazing.
I never have to unlock my phone with a pin as long as my Smartband is close by. I press the powerbutton and it unlocks instantly.
I'll be upgrading to the Smartband Talk.

It's a pretty nifty little gadget. Press the button on the side then click your fingers and the media player will play / pause. Love it!

No, it can't be used for data transfer. Just charging. £22 is a good price. I've not seen it for less than £20 yet, well I have but I thought the site was a bit dodgy. I post the link but when I clicked on it it took me to a software download page.
Found this on eBay though. link

Ah OK never mind I want to open those flaps as little as possible. Be awesome though someday if Sony brings long exposure to their mobile cameras like Nokia has and HTC. Am sure they will soon.

Interesting, is that with the Smartband or Smartband Talk? I had a Smartband and I had to tap the button and then tap on top of the band to control the media player. It worked about 1 in 3 times I tried so I gave up on it.
The clicking your fingers technique sounds like it could work better. I'll be getting a Smartwatch 3 I reckon, the design has grown on me.

Smartband. It doesn't work 100% of the time but I think a bit better than the tap method. I found it hard to work out how hard to tap.

Was just listening to some Jamiroquai on the Walkman player. It sounds stonking 😁 I've still got the Sony live headset from the Xperia Ray 😁

Yeah, the Walkman media player is one of the best around. It's nice to have so many options to tweak.

Original
Using night scene shutter is decently fast and steady with very little noise
