      Anonymous, 12 Mar 2014Why would someone get a secondhand Z1c for 550? brand new o... moreI count all phones sold from unsealed boxes as second hand. Being the only z1 compact sold in a street shop in the entire city usually means it was a display model or someone tried it out for a few days and sold it back to the shop in another country and then it made its way to Kampuchea. Sony phones are sold here in unsealed boxes unlike Samsung where the shop owner allows the customer purchasing the phone to break the seal. Still new or not this model remains unsold at $550.

                      I have one for a months , original !!not a copy , and it's look like old phone .

                      I can tell you that the front panel is jus a glass ( very soft ) and the back is plastic ( low quality )
                      For me it's not a premium phone and in Belgium it's very low demand for this model.
                      BTW the prise is already going down .
                      I post my on eBay on low prise and NOBODY is interesting .

We cant force anyone to like girls, and we cant force him to like this phone (i know noone can force me to like boys, same thing). What we CAN do however is rest assured that he would never buy this phone anyway, glass or not glass is obviously not the problem, he is trying to make a big deal out of it simply because... Well, because he can.

                                Overall, it is one extremely classy looking device, particularly in white.

                                  The build quality is a debatable aspect of a gadget , I like the heaviness of this phone when held in hand and the aluminum sides give it a really premium feel , reminiscent of the iphone 4 and 4s .

                                  This is easily one of the top premium feeling phones in the hand , also sony sticks their own screen guard on the phone which other users are mistaking for the easily scratch-able surface . If you dont like it just peel it off and the glass beneath is pristine and very much scratch resistant

                                  Let us not even compare it to the samsungs and the likes of it , the only phones that can be compared to this in build quality are the htc one series , the iphones 4 to 5s and the polycarbonate single shell construction nokia lumia series . But then none of them are water proof and will work just fine after an accidental drop in the pool or the bathtub

                                  Or are they ?

My point exactly. I don't want a phone that scratches badly in a few month's of use and polycarbonate plastic scratches very easily. If they made this Z1 compact with a more durable case I would think about it being my phone for the next few years. I'm a choosy consumer. I get what I like rather than being talked into liking what I get.

                                      It is a matter of taste. I was just so disappointed to find this phone was made of plastic I have three phones and an IPod and they are all metal and gorilla glass and are not scratched at all even without those fingerprint magnet screen protectors.

                                        Camera is very good iauto takes really sharp pictures 90% of the time , but then there is manual mode also if you have if you want to tweak the settings and get a better shot . I find this a tad bit better than the iphone 5s
