            GSmarena team you made a small error in the ast page of the review, the conclusion, under this paragraph:'' An interesting, if rather exotic, alternative to the Sony Xperia ZR is the LG Optimus GJ. The waterproof version of the Korean company's soon-to-be-ex flagship is a tad larger than the Sony smartphone, but packs the same processing punch and has a screen with better viewing angles. It only has IPX7 protection though and isn't the easiest handset to find this side of the Urals.''
            You have put the photo of the Xperia ZR rather than the photo of the LG optimus GJ.

              AnonD-101488, 30 Jul 2013Still waiting for the 1020 review. Q5, S4 Zoom, HTC One ... morenobody is waiting other than microsoft trolls, those phones being reviewed now are much more popular and demanded and important! what do they need to review?? The old chipset, the bad screen, the big thickness of 2003, the useless os, the very high price, the plastic body or the waste of 41mp?? (why waste?? Because 808 pureview offered much better photo quality )

                Still waiting for the 1020 review.

                Q5, S4 Zoom, HTC One Google Edition, now Sony ZR review - they are all distractions... When we're all waiting for that 1020 review.

                GSMArena being a awful teaser.
