            AnonD-71586, 07 Jul 2015Problem is people don't buy phones based on their needs, at... moreYou are right, but unfortunately not only in your country but in mine as well which is England. I live in central London and most phones you see are probably iPhones. Or is because you have an iPhone you want people to see it (and you)?

              Problem is people don't buy phones based on their needs, at least not where i live. People in romania only buy iphones or samsungs. I've got my z1 a year ago and in a year i met only 2 other persons with other sony phones and 2 other persons with htc phones and 1 with lg. All other persons with who i interacted and i interact with a lot of people have samsungs or iphones. They just care about the brand and looking cool and what other people think about those phones. They don't have the slightest idea of what those phones can do and they are not even buying them because they need them, they are buying them just as a status symbol. This is why at least here, good companies as sony htc and lg are failing even though they have great phones at great prices. I bought my z1 for 20 euros one year ago on a 2 year contract for 25 euros a month and i have unlimited minutes and messages in my country and 500 international minutes and 2 gb of internet. Had unlimited internet for the first 4 months. I would say that's a good deal. But people would rather buy an iphone or a samsung and pay 60 euros a month and another 300 at purchase.

                                Anonymous, 07 Jul 2015They probably would have said the same about Vaio. I am qui... moresonys products are quite good and reliable. The problem is that they are like diamonds, rock solid and also sell expensive. So they don't measure up in the numbers game. Sony needs to get their cost of production down. How they can do it is upto them. The number of people buying expensive electronics is less and the competition at the top is very discerning and fussy.

                                        After there were reports that sony exited the viao laptop there were apprehensions about similar fate of sony tvs and mobile phones. Those who had or intended to buy them would be left high and dry. So for now the apprehensions would be allayed. Good that sony has clarified it.
