My Z3's screen completely detached when using a "sticky" car mount *on the rear of the phone*. I did not go for warranty repair because I need my phone more than I need it to be waterproof and it was still operational, albeit not even water resistant any more.
Today it broke from a small fall, and is now completely worthless. Lots of promise as the great new sports phone, but in practice it was simply fragile.

I've had my Z3 LTE dual sim for 10 months now, and previously owned a Z1 and Z2, all now running Android 5.
The Z3 it's noticeably lighter and slimmer than the previous phones. It is a bit faster but it's hardly noticeable. Camera and lens are also slightly better.
The Z1 had an anti-shatter film over both the front and back. The Z2 had a scratch-proof glass on both sides. I had no noticeable scratches on them ever, even when I don't use any covers or cases. The Z3 was disappointing, it has no scratch resistance and no film, it had noticeable scratches after just a month of careful use. I installed tempered glass protectors (front and back) and now it is no longer slim. It is now about as thick as the Z2 but the tempered glass' cuts for camera and sensors make it look awful and it won't fit the Z3 dock unless you fit it with the little plastic intended for the Z2.
In conclusion, you have slightly better electronics but the trade-off are much more delicate glass and frame. I should have kept my Z2, which was a notable improvement over the Z1.

First I love the z3 when I didn't update it to the latest version. Now my z3 doesn't work..my display has it's own life and I m not even swiping or doing anything. Before I can take pictures, now I can't take normal pictures. I can't even text. This is sad because my z3 is still new and unddr warranty. And they can't do a thing, they've told me, my lcd will be replaced and I will wait for less than a month so that Sony will either replace the unit or change the LCD.
Much better Samsung s5 for the water resistant phone. My sister and husband had the Samsung s5. And they are happy until now.

Very disappointed -
For an alleged waterproof phone it is pretty easily damaged by rinsing with tab water. For the second time the phone was damaged by water, and yes all ports were closed. After the first time I had it repaired under warranty (which took 6 weeks) and I thought it was all sorted, I rinsed it to clean it. Again the buttons wouldn't respond and there was moisture on the inside of the camera lens. Not sure what to do because I can't afford having the phone for repairs for another 6 weeks... Verdict it under performs and over promises. Same with the slow and not at all customer focused service.

GSM Arena is wrog. The Z3 camera is the best camera phone on this segment. I know people with samsunge note's, LG G4's etc. None of the pictures qualities come close to my Z3. The whit balance is absolutely superb. I can take a pic dirctly into the sunlight and still see peoples face and all surroundings detial. Overall, Fantastic phone. Only downside is that the phone does get a bit hot when gaming. Baterry life is out of this world!!! So its a 9.5/10.
