sup, 09 Mar 2014some one please help......on gsm arena it say that this pho... moreHi Sup,
This is for you.
Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is an 4G enabled phone both internationally and the version launched in India.
But You need to understand that the frequency of 4G that is deployed in India works on different Bandwidth as compare to most of the other countries. Carriers in India use the TD-LTE (Time-Division Long-Term Evolution) standard compare to FD-LTE (Frequency-Division Long-Term Evolution). Or in simple language 4G in India support 2300 Mhz of frequency in Band 40 whereas Sony Xperia Z1 Compact support 4G of 800/850/ 900/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 in band. 1,2,3,4,5,7,8, 20. So my dear friend the bottom line is that in India sony xperia z1 compact is available with 4G support but will not work with 4g frequency of India. So Sony need to make a new version of sony mobiles which support 2300 Mhz freq in band 40 Or Indian carriers must deploy 4G infrastructure which matches with the international standard. For more info none of the 4g handsets available in Indian market support 2300 Mhz frequencey other than iPhone 5S A1530 and iPhone 5C A1529. So any handsets which claims it is 4G enabled must follow this 2300 Mhz frequency rule else it will can not be utilized for 4g Support atleast in India and atleast for coming 3-4 years. Let me know if you need any further details. @ Rit..

            The phone has serious flash/low light issues. Google "Flash bleed" and read!
            Sony of course denies it.
