                              sid, 30 Jan 2014Hey Guys Genuine Advice needed, I have to buy a smartphone ... moreBought my ZL in October 2013, a great phone to have and mine is still working fine.

                              As for sudden death issues, I think it mostly occurs to users in South and North America?
                              I think you're from India?

                              If that's the case, asian ZL users should not be a big problem and it's pretty safe to buy it.

                              My two cents worth. Cheers.

                                  Benjamin , 29 Jan 2014Your comment and is very subjective. HTC and Huawei are ... moreMy apologies if it hurts you ! I use it just to compare quality of Sony Xperia Zl and Quality of cheap Chinese phones . Perhaps China phones like any other Made in China brands never show it's good face in quality (sorry no offense ) . Maybe now the way of thinking is changing. For example me i would never buy anything with brand Lenovo,Huawei or ZTE , need time to pass to start trusting this brands or any other ones (gsmarena has 15 brands here in phone columns) as I said it's my humble opinion ! P.S. as far as I know HTC is Taiwan brand but quality is different I personally had HTC Incredible S and Sensation XE , + I had ASUS tablet and quality is very good no complaints at all

                                    HTC and Huawei are both Chinese brands, and yet they do produce good quality phones.
                                    So using $20 cheap Chinese phone in your context is very inappropriate.
                                    Are you even aware that various Chinese phone makers are releasing pretty good phones with with decent specs and price point?

                                    Are you so sure that Chinese phone makers only produce cheap phones?

                                    Despite Apple Samsung and Sony being the well known and powerhouse if current phone market, you can tell from the recent CES that various Chinese brands are stepping up their game and have a foot in the current phone market.
                                    So don't use cheap Chinese $20 phone in your opinion in the future.

                                        Anonymous, 29 Jan 2014every device has issues, some ps4 have had issues, some ps3... moreYeah well said ! Everything can break down nothing is perfect , Samsung is overheating, Apple iphone 5s has battery issues , some of HTC has network issues nothing is perfect ! But percentage of this particular line of the phones (Z) it's very hight on bad hardware assembling and it cost like other good phones like S4 , G2, or HTC one, so my question why we should pay same money for this crap(ZL) ? If we can easy buy good device with no problem ? And Sony service is horrible ! They still sell it worldwide and they never fix the issue, basically they lie to people selling defective phones starting from Xperia Z till Z1 , people pays a lot of money for phones but in response we get same devises like cheap Chinese $20 retarded phones ! Yeah no doubts people likes Xperia designs same as me but what we gonna do if it goes in "sleep of death" after when warranty expires ? hang on wall and look on it like $600 5" portrait ? I don't know how in other countries but in USA and Canada Z line it's full of issues (aka crap)
