                    There's a news to fix this with some phone not all first of all, and its so simple u just need to reflash the software using SONY UPDATE SERVICE and it will be good to go till the update comes in. FYI other Manufacturers dont even offer software reflash other than Apple and BB...so be proud to use SONY phones... I would say its a great phone and m surely gonna buy that soon once i store that much money

                      I was a diehard SonyEricsson fan too. I have two Xperias, the Acro S and the V. I find their WiFi reception poor compared to my two other HTC phones. My Xperias could not keep up the wifi connection when my HTCs were still going on.

                      Sony seriously has issues. This Sudden Death syndrome looks like its brought over from the Xperia V.

                      Does not look very good on Sony. They are just not doing enough be up there with Samsung and the rest.

                          I reckon these reports were made deliberately to put down sony's stauts... my xperia z works great because i take good care of it.... those wit broken ones most likely dont take care of their phones (naturally or deliberately)... the phone is fine!!!!!!!!

                            I am not a samsung, apples or sonys fanboy. Just a normal user of cell phones. I commented what i saw around me. This thing can happen to any mobile but my point was that two of the cell phones i bought from sony recently haven't been up to the mark. As far as Z is concerned, its too expensive for my kind of normal user.

                                    To all notorious diehards SONY FANS out there, I'm proudly present two of the most hilarious comments that makes my day... :D

                                    1. Maybe sony xperia z is so afraid to dip into the
                                    waters, so the phone initiated a self destruct,
                                    oh i mean sudden death..

                                    2. Sony Claimed its Dust and Water Resistant..
                                    Now they should claim that its USER Resistant
                                    too..

                                    LOLLED MANY TIMES! :D

                                      Apparantly, some people still don't understand that SonyEricsson=/=Sony, and how they work are totally different.
