I use sonys manual and can challenge anyone to make better shots than my z1c, except nokia1020 users, that is a good 40mpx cam, although with some downsides too

    Ryen, 26 Apr 2015Sony’s mobile phones have always been sub standard. Sony f... moreWow! you seriously have a cracked brain which is filled with hate against Sony! all your points are straight forward wrong!
    about Battery - well Sony has the best battery performance in the mobile industry! and you say their battery life to be poor! lol on you
    and about screen cracking, well that again is a pathetic comment because Sony has the best and most durable Phones ever made! I owned a Xperia Z and my phone fell numerous times but still is working like a horse! once it fell with its screen down on a rocky ground but still it was as normal as it could be! so stop hating Sony for no reason, and you are hating Sony even without using a single product from Sony!
    now, about 10 years ago, well Sony had the best tech even 10 years ago, but people wanted more simple phones like nokia produced thats the reason Sony sold less, but still Sony was way better in terms of features!
    and when they came up with Ericsson, they achieved new heights.
    do you remember 2011 when smartphones real competition started, Sony had the BEST midranger ever.. Xperia Go, Xperia Ray, Xperia Neo V, Xperia mini pro, Xperia live with Walkman... none of the companies were able to beat those midrangers!

      Ryen, 26 Apr 2015Sony’s mobile phones have always been sub standard. Sony f... moreAhah, not one word true, so delusional... :-D
      Mobile product companies come and go, Sony remains...
      Only other company that was there from beggining, but not as long though, and still going is...samsung
      But samsung is there due to mass production of mediocre, and marketing
      Whilst Sony...still here due to quality and innovation

                  I think Sony has outstanding phones, better than Samsung or Apple. It's just that, I think Sony's marketing strategies are not that efficient as Samsung's.

                  Sony Xperia rocks \m/

                    These were pretty good phones.. then turned on my Z3C again and i just gave the 2 others back.

                    Sure, the Z3C camera isnt great at all (main reason for testing other phones) but everything else is just way more convenient. 2 or 3x the battery time, size, waterproofness, and its fast ... its even pretty

                    I feel like sales atm are purely brand fanboism.

                                  There are teo things that i have never understood in my life,the first thing is that;if dinosaurs realy ever existed and the second thing is that why SONY is thinking to sell it's mobile division,i can't realy think of any other smartphone even for a second,I'm not saying samsung is bad but I've tried alot to convince myself to get along with the design but i realy can't, Xperia phones are my only choice
