I really wanna own this one...tis quite a looker actually
But having a pretty bad experience with my battery life... I'm thinking about waiting for Google - Motorola's project XPhone instead
Cmon man, what's the point of having super smart phone if you need to get it recharged every 6 hours? Only to use it to read emails and getting social
Currently pleased with my nexus 4, but once again... Battery life's suck

Based on other phones' specs, this phone's 2330 mAh battery should have no problem in reaching the 48H mark. Phones with the same chipset & CPU lasted more than 40 hours with smaller batteries. I'm longing for the complete review and the battery test. Thanks in advance GSMARENA!

AnonD-107998, 14 Feb 2013but you can always watercooled it :DWell, it will be an hassle even if this way works. Imagine you are outside taking pictures and the phone keeps shutting down. Or you are just watching videos and it shuts down.
I read that merely playing the phone for 15mins already heating up quite a lot. I hope things will get fix when the retail sets are out.

Nice love this phone. Contrast might be problem for now but if it islike xperia s contrast then thats fine with me. But I read some article that they will come up a software related screen to calibrate it right maybe this might solve this contrast issue. On the other topic well satisfied for processor down to all specs. So will wait for actual and ready to spend money. After this 2 years perhaps will be a next purchase. Since hardware is now slightly effect in terms of overall experience due to fact that quadcore krait ahd its 2 gb ram is enough to maximize os. Screen uardware quality is also slightly effect. I hope I had a right decision.

there's no use for big screen if i want to watch movie while browsing or doing something else in the same time. so for me those features will be not usefull.

I love Sony products since childhood and want them to rise again to the top like they were in the 70s, 80s and 90s. This phone is beautiful, but now we know the real manufacturing costs of phones since High Spec phones from JiaYu and the worlds fastest Tegra 4 with 72 graphic cores from Xiaomi will be 200 to 300 USD. So paying 529 UK Pounds or 850 USD for the Experia Z which might not even be made in Japan feels like a ripoff.

less impressive user interface, i mean, there are no fancy tricks on the software side like the double screen tricks which video can be played and seen while doing something else.

finally.. very good replacement for my iphone 4. it's funny when people said SGS4 will beat Xperia Z.. of course will beat Xperia Z, different generation, eight core, probably more RAM.. but for today Xperia Z is better. and i believe sony will launch another High End Xperia and will get better. Good job Sony
