I just wanted to ask whether lolipop is coming to z1 or not?
It is coming, like February or March.
But c'mon, we have a good piece of hardware. How they can miss this model for lollipop?
All Z phones are
january for z3 febuary for z2 and z1 and march for z
@iain26 do you have a conformation of this time frame?

The Z1 is February not March. The Z1 compact is march.

Sony would get a lot of cred if they'd be able to tell that all of their Xperia Z are running Lollipop at the Mobile World Congress, in March.
If this calendar is true, they might just be able to do so!

Because I'm here temporarily, it isn't available to me on prepaid with either carrier, but when I do a network search on Smart, I can see the LTE network in some places, but I can't connect to it due to the restrictions on the prepaid service.
Should work perfectly fine though, as Smart is also selling the Xperia V, and both Globe and Smart's LTE frequencies are supported on the C6603

Smart boot loader status
Hey guys, considering jumping ship from Samsung, currently running a Note. I'm eligible for an early upgrade on Smart and looking hard at the Xperia Z. Normally I'm a Sony hater (root kit et al.), but I like how they are contributing to AOSP, and it is good hardware.
Only thing holding me back is knowing if the boot loader is unlockable on the Smart provided Zs. Any feedback much appreciated.

Hi everyone!
I'm planning on selling my XS and upgrade to an XZ (or the rumored Honami), how much does a second hand XS fare nowadays? Is it a good upgrade or do I wait for one more wave of smartphones (sony, of course).
Also, I heard that Smart carries the XZ exclusively. I've been on Globe since primary school (year 2002 i think), is Smart a good network? Is their LTE stable? Kasi, if I won't buy the Z from the Xperia store, I might try jumping to Smart just to avail Z plan \
Maraming salamat!

Xperia s noong panahon ku ibinenta since close family kaya pabigay ko benta 12,000 at instal pa for 1yr. kainis huhu. Talo ako dyan alam ko kasi may kumakagat pa nun 14k install pa. Honami??? Estimated ko labas ng 3rd qtr kapag hintay mu yan sinasbi nilang flagship phone. Malamang nxt yr or december pa darating at may flagship ulet c sony haha. Ang suggest ko sayo ok pa bumili ng xz ok pa up to this month pero kapag lumagpas kana go to 2nd flagship na. Btw lte ng smart i dont buy it luge ka kasi ang lte ay parang hotspot palang ang liit pa ng coverage puro hspda at 3g pa rin labas yan. Mga 2 yrs pa bago sulet lte. At alam ko may limit yun data usage.

If you check last yr sony xperia lineup they are releasing two times a year. Xperia s release on jan. Ces 2012 and xperia t or v release bet. Aug. To sept. So given to the pattern, their will be another flagship by sony this year.

I had a friend who received a deal from another friend for a 2nd hand Experia Z at $634. Is this reasonable? Do you guys know how much is the price of a second hand Experia Z? Thank you so much!

I've paid 320€ (~$440) for one month old xperia Z... I think $634 is too much... in Europe you can find it new for 450€ (~$620)
A *new* Xperia Z (C6603 = 4G/LTE model) is now €389.09 on Amazon.de. That's approximately $535, so $634 for a 2nd hand is way too much.

Can you share your experience on KK on XZ? I read from their forum that 4.4.2 is not working so well on XZ. Hope that Sony will give us 4.4.3 instead.

Thanks

Thanks for the update, Eagerly waiting for KK release for my Xperia ZR
i have my XZ1 with kitkat on it.
it's not that big of an upgrade... most noticable is better camera algorithem, so a little less noisy pictures, and little better night shots.
there is a MAJOR sound issue with kitkat, sound is coming from earpiece instead of louspeaker, so people don't hear thier alarm and incoming calls...
sony promised an update this week, other that that ram handling is bad like in 4.3, it's getting low all the time and the device starts going slow and closing apps....
not much of a promise... and we didn't get any cool features from the Z2 like tap to wake or smart call handling...
kitkat confermed for zr an others nxt month
cant wait for Kikat....
Eagerly waiting for Kitkat for my ZR. just one more day, and may starts.
So I hope, we can expect the release any day.
KitKat firmware already certified. Release is near:
http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=23227
A 10.5.A.0.227 ECO Apr 29, 2014

The firmware being certified, Can we expect the release in like a week or less ?

I just saw this:
