How is the glass fit for everyone elses z3c? There is a decent size gap between the glass and plastic on the top side of my z3c, enough to where i can noticeably see dust and other material in the gap.
Am i alone? Is this a wide spread issue? It really takes away from the premium feel of the phone to see all this dust & crap between the glass and plastic :\. Will post up some pictures if they can make out anything.
It's not very noticeable for me, but there are smalls gaps all around the glass rear and front. It's not very visible on the black version, but I can see some debris stuck in there under bright light. I can also feel the gap with my nail. I have the impression that the bottom gap (backside) is a bit larger than the top gap. My previous phone, Xperia Acro S, had no gap around the glass whatsoever.

My first one - black - had this pretty bad so I sent it back. I got a different colour instead - red/orange - so any dust collecting would hopefully be less noticeable, but the gap is actually less in this replacement. There's only a small one at the top of the front glass now.
So I think the cut of their glass panels is maybe not as precise as it should be and there is a bit of variance. But most people will have gaps of varying degrees I think..

If you feel on the left and right sides with you finger nail, can you feel your nail "drop" a little bit between the glass and plastic, with the replacement unit?

Maybe just, but it's not enough for dust to get in any more. Only at the top now is the gap large-enough for dust.

Ah, sounds like how it is for mine. I think they all have this to some degree. I wonder if Sony has a technical reason for the gaps?
Going to return my z3c and get another one which will hopefully have a better fitting screen. The spacing between the plastic band around the screen and the "translucent plastic" is also big enough where debris gotten stuck in it. Very disappointing.

That spacing is always going to be there I think. Well it's not actually a spacing, it's just because the finish between the plastic band and the translucent sides is not a flush finish. This is just the design of the phone. It does catch some small debris on mine as well, but it's relatively easy to remove.
At least you can wash your phone if it gets too dusty.
Just don't do it under running tap water.

This is not the spacing i'm referring to. I talking about between the glass and the plastic. It definitely is not apart of the design of hte phone, as the right left and bottom edges are almost perfectly flush.

That is the part my reply was about.

Ah gotcha. Yeah that spacing is disappointing but i'm "ok" with it. The glass spacing on the other hand i'm not ok with.
also mine has the gap in the left part,the right part its perfect
as you said probably the screen its not fit perfect,but for me its ok because i only see it if i look carefully.
I think it could actually be a safety measurement: if the phone falls and hits the ground with that plastic rim, the relatively small gap could prevent the impact from being directly transferred onto the glass.

I could believe that if it was the same gal on top and bottom, front and back. But it's not, it's only front top.
Has anyone (without screen protector) noticed the appearance of small spots on the display glass, where the oleophobic coating seems to have rubbed off a bit? They appear as small spots that permanently look more greasy/smudgy than the rest of the display glass. It started with one spot, but now there are several of them. Never had this with any other phone.

Is this what you mean?
https://www.amazon.co.uk/ANEWSIR-Compatible-Pocophone-Protector-Scratch-Resistant/dp/B07H7HVWL2
Im using one of these and it does cover the whole screen, notch included
I dont think he/she meant protect the notch, more like hide the bars beside it from being visible, if I understood correctly? I have screenprotector like the one linked above, but it paints the notch part, sides and bottom black. You could probably take it a step further and paint the sides of the notch black with some color.

I got a pack of those. I laughed when I opened the sachet of what I thought to be adhesive for the edge liftoff, and found it was actually in fact baby oil. Still had edge liftoff and now baby oil to collect all the dust. Lovely!

I didnt realise it was baby oil It says in the pack that its meant to hide the white edges of the protector. It did make them less obvious, but didnt fully hide them

For me it just made the edges easier to push off / lift up by the spigen case I am using.
