Hi all,
I want to buy the xperia z1 this days,but im afraid it will have the same problems as te orginial z.
The most im afraid of are the cracked backs and fronts out of the sudden whitout dropping and lose backplates?
Are there already people who have this problems,cuz i cant find one on google yet.
Grtz
I don't have it yet but the new bezel is Metal I believe (aluminium to be specific? not sure) so its going to be more durable than the original Xperia Z.
Haven't have any issues with either Z or Z1. I don't think the problem was very big to begin with. You're more likely to hear from someone who has a problem than someone who hasn't had an issue since day one so it may seem like it's riddled with defects.
Problem wasn't big?
There's forums and blogs everywhere reporting the back plate starting to raise due to heat. That's one reason I got rid of my xz. My network and Sony would only repair it. Personally it's a major flaw in the design
So i'm going to buy the Xperia Z1 , but im scared that it heats up and it would have heating problems and other problems . should i go for it or not?
THANKS
Go for it, almost all the problems was solved with the FW .136 Update and with KitKat it will be much better. BTW there is no any Perfect phone on the market, all of them have + and -.
so heat problems were proved to be software problems? what about touchscreen . im afraid because in my country if it has minor problems like this ( They consider it minor ) they dont trade it for me. and why your phone is back to sony center @eclyptos ?
THANKS!

Yes, problem was solved by Software. I sent back my phone to Sony Center via warranty for Touch Screen issues but that was before the FW .136 was released. Many reported they do not have problem with the Touch Screen anymore after update to .136. So in few days my phone will be back and I will check what exactly they did, replaced the Touch Screen or just Updated the FW to .136.

I have my z1 for two month, sometimes I play asphalt 8 for two hours, the phone does warmup ofcourse it's no light game, but it's still comfortable to hold, defenetly not OVERHEAT.

It's an amazing device and probably the best one out there.
Do bare in mind that a lot of new devices are being released in March (after MWC) and new features as well an next generation CPU and GPU's will be implemented, so if you do have the money and don't mind waiting, maybe it is worth holding off till then.
Z1 has amazing performance, is waterproof and the camera can take astonishing pictures.
The screen has vibrant colors but the viewing angles are not great ( could be a no no for some). The external speaker is also a disappointment as it has waterproofing membranes.
I would advise you to read reviews online and see if that's the device for you. Other phones to consider would include (LG G2, Nexus 5, HTC One, Oppo Find 5,SGSIV, Note 3 etc). None of the devices available in the market is perfect, so you just have to choose the one that suits your usage best.
I have quite a few Z1 videos on my YouTube channel so if you have time, come and check them out.

Thanks all
If you looking over portability then go for Z1 Compact, if not then go for it...

Go for it!
it`s awesome at performance i had not really heating problems with OC and hard gaming like gta for hours
Of course it gets hot like every phone would at this specs but not that hot in my opinion at least.
Hello Everyone, So, i was about to buy 2 moto g's (1 for me and 1 for gf) But since she saw xperia sp led's she's in love with it and she really likes it, But i have some doubts if i should get it for us or not...
My question is: i did read alot that there is a serious touchscreen problem that plagues most Xperia sp, ghost touches, touch not responding.. problems like that
weak wifi signal, randomly rebooting, overheating for no causa..
Has this been fixed? what is the actual state about SP ? I don't care about it not beeing kit kat yet, i can just place a custom rom if needed
I just won't buy a phone for my girl knowing it'll probably give us more trouble than fun, thanks everyone.
The actual state for the Xperia SP in Android 4.3 Laggy, Buggy, por RAM Perfomanence , but in 4.1 .254 only have WiFi bug. i have cm11 oficial and have bugs in Led
I wish not bought my xperia SP. I wish buy moto g or iPhone 4s
Oh wow... Thanks alot, i guess this is a big no no, I'll just head to moto g along with my girl, thanks alot mate..
Moto G is a good phone but lacks of SD slot, and that makes the phone useless for me...
Now, Xperia SP NOT always is laggy and blablabla, mine have .201 (latest 4.3 update) stock, just instaled once when update was released and works perfect, no lag, no overheating, touch responding, good battery life, no RAM problem, just Wifi sometimes but that was always since 4.1...
Your or your GF has tried to repair or go to service center?
IF you don't upgrade to 4.3, you will have a decent phone. But you will need to root it to solve some issues.
I'm happy with my SP. wouldn't change it for nothing.
Root to solve issues like what?
And QBertoo, we don't have the phone yet, but since sp has so much problems we'll probably head to moto g despite it beeing weaker in terms of hardware but better in everything else.. sorry for double post
You can wait for the moto g LTE

Usually cleaning the screen from time to time solves that for me.

Wifi is good enough for me. Random reboots do happen every few weeks or so, but I'm using Xposed Framework and replaces lots of system apps so that may be the cause of it. Overheating hasn't been a problem for me, it gets hot when on mobile internet, but not very hot and all phones I have used do that.
The Xperia SP is a great phone, I think it is totally worth it and much better than the Moto G.
You could wait until Sony releases the next update this month to see if it fixes the problems.
Hey guys,
I need a new Phone because my old one (xperia sp) died of water damage...
I made a list and now I've removed the LG G2 (no expandable storage, only 16gb model available) and the S4 VE (too much issues on custom roms). And the only Phone left is the xperia Z1!
Does the xperia Z1 still perform well? It has a cm12 build now, is it stable for daily driver use? Should I give sony another try because the xperia SP is an absolute POS it lagged like crazy, even on custom roms!
It is water proof so I can't kill my Phone again and it seems like a very nice Phone!
Any issues with the device?
thanks,
noahvt
i my self have xperia sp, and looking to buy xperia z1
my friend has one, and it's uncomparable to sp
lightning fast phone, all my attempts to make it lag failed lol, if you buy second hand, mak sure it still has sonylogo, beceause it's ugly without it , camera is superb, my sp's camera feels like a vga camera next to z1 camera
also all z1 phones have touch screen issues when the phone gets little hot from use, your screen will respond to ghost touches, so you have to turn it odd, then on and continue using it

Just got my Z1 put cm12 on there and I'm happy as hell! Best phone I have ever had! No lag at all! Almost got the same antutu score as 1+1! So happy I didn't get the one, got a device with much better build quality and similar performance!
I also came from an XSP. i bought my z1 at december and i happy with it. The price was good, and the phone is a beast.
did anyone face some ghost touches ?
i recently purchased used sony xperia z3 plus.While recording video its heat to much and suddenly cam app closed.pls help me to solve.
You've got wrong decide. Better get rid of it fast.
