    Finally a decent spec'd Android phone that isn't the size of a house. I've been using a very tired Motorola RAZR M for over a year and haven't found anything worthy to upgrade to due to the ridiculous sizes of current top end phones till now. AND it's waterproof which is very useful.. great to see Sony being smart about things. Really can't wait for this to make it to Australian shores.

          So i been testing various phones to see if i can live with low PPI, and i think i can. I recon this will be similar to GNote 3 which has Pentile display of 386 ppi, since Z1C has higher subpixel density it should be good enough. Not great though, lots of farsighted people who are in denial of needing reading glasses dont believe me when i say that i can spot rough edges on small fonts on a 441 ppi display. I truly believe that 2560x1440 is the best resolution for 5 inch phones and that this will be standard for 2014 flagships, then its a bit disappointing that Sony goes the other way, but the upside is that with lower ppi Sony is able to make the panel IPS, not that viewing angles of Xperia Z ever bothered me but IPS in general increases the display contrast and thats a good thing.

                    james2312, 11 Jan 2014I agree. I put myself a limit of 500USD. According sony it ... moreWait.. You willing to wait until August if this phone cost $550 at launch? To save $50? In August it isnt worth $500 anymore, if you pay $550 in Feb/March you get half a year with a top of the line phone, 50 divided by 180 days, thats like just above a quarter a day. Your logic is illogical.
