Never buy this phone. My son had his for less than a week and while driving in his car with the phone sitting in the console the screen cracked and the phone stopped working. The phone company that he bought it from will do nothing about it because they claim it is physical damage, so not covered under warranty.

    Till now I use Xperia Z, satisfy with it after the earpiece not working is solved. The charging time if I let it standby (the phone is active) is around 4 hours more using the stock EP800 charger. I don't do many test for water resistant, too risky, we can't guarantee one a day or later the speaker will be damaged or not, and the camera will have problem or not. Water resistant I think is useful for undeliberately accident like drop it water, falls in a pool or the other things.

        AnonD-336590, 29 Nov 2014Could you plz tell about a Sony Expedia Z LTE phone... Suc... moreI use Xperia Z HSDPA version. Now in Jelly Bean 4.2.2, so far it is good. The bug I found was earpiece not working during a call, you have to squeeze it the earpiece speaker to make it sound again, but later the problem will occur again. I found the solution, suggested by someone in here too, installed SoundAbout Pro, it fixed the problem.

Suc... moreIt's the same phone as all others(Sony Xperia C6603, Sony Xperia C6602, Sony Xperia Z LTE, Sony Xperia Z HSPA+) that are mentioned ,it's just under a different nick, mostly done by companies providing mobile services in order to sell their products faster .Example is you've got two mobile devices on market one is xperia Z and other is xperia Z LTE actually it's the same phone but the one of them is worth less money and they profit ....So no bugs, no nothing. We have a killer price here in my country which should be around 110 dollars with a contract which is pretty well for this kind of phone considering the specifications . Best of best .It's in the top 10 smartphones of the site . 6130 people have voted about this phone's design features and performance you won't get any other phone to be that good it's amazing. Watch where you buy it from !!!!!

You can find one from aliexpress around $10 AUD. I highly recommend you to buy a glass screen protector as well and install it on top of it. That way you'll protect the sony logo screen protector from scratches.
                    I'm using it this way so it does work.

                    Cheers

                      Because Xperia Z front screen is covered by anti shatter glass, I think it's better to take care of it, don't let the screen scratches, if we remove the temper glass anti scratch, the logo of Sony may loose too. Here I copy paste from XDA:

                      The xperia z has a glued on anti shatter film that you can remove
                      and replace with any screen protector of your choice. The only
                      downside is that you lose the Sony logo

                      Yeah it's only the anti shatter film. But if you do remove it you will
                      loose the Sony logo. Some people find that a plus. Also some
                      reporting more responsive screen.

                      In another forum, a guy said he was part of screen technology,
                      which because it is thin, it would be impossible to press the Sony
                      logo.
                      He had posted a picture explaining!

                              Due to lot of scratches I had removed the ASF (screen guard) and I lost the Sony Logo with it.. Is there a way I can get a screen guard in India with Sony logo on it.. The phone looks dumb without a name.

                                Than service kills battery incredibly fast.

                                      So far I satisfy with Xperia Z C6602, works fast and almost no lag. The earpiece malfunction during a call is fixed by installing SoundAbout Pro and set the phone call audio to earpiece. I had updated to Jelly Bean 4.2.2.
