**** Sony Xperia Z3 ****

First day 'out in the wild' for my Z3. Due to a very productive day at work, cough, it's had a fair bit of use and the battery is still at 74% after a full charge overnight. My old S3 was normally down to around 30% after a day at work, so that is very impressive indeed!

Can't get 4g reception in the office at all but works fine out in the car park, and more importantly, at the fag shed :)
 
Amazon are showing 8 Z3 blacks in stock now.
I ordered the Copper which now says in stock on the 3rd Oct.
Oh well, I am not stupid fussed on colour but I didn't pay for Prime to have my stuff delivered to whoever their courier decides is my address...

Good news is my case and magnetic charger cable arrives tomorrow.
 
Got my Copper one coming tomorrow along with the dock :)


One thing that really bugs me is that companies cant get the official cases out the same time as the phones. Is it really THAT hard to do? I think they should offer free repairs or replacemnets for damage done to phone in between the phones release and their cases.
 
Pics of the Copper please :) And your thoughts on how you are finding it?

THIS, Oh man!

Ah cool. Can you check your power management screen to see what's on by default? I changed mine all around and forgot :o
 
Ended up ordering the Z3 last night. Should be here tomorrow, was a tough decision as I really do like the Z3 compact too. I've also ordered Crystalusion liquid screen protector.

Just logged into my order it's gone from 'waiting to despatch' to 'Awaiting for arrival' No stock.. :o
 
After much waiting I've decided to go for either the Z3 or Z3 Compact. Coming from an Xperia Arc S after 3 year. Just can't decide if the Z3 is too big but the better specs I want :( The Arc S was a giant phone in its day when it first came out but got used to it within a week and realized that a bigger screen is much better. But not sure I will think the same with the Z3 since it is a monster.
 
I picked up my Z3 from my local three store today. After getting the phone home and having a little play with it I have pretty quickly decided it is not for me. I havent put the sim card in yet for the new contract. Do you know if I am able to return it? Getting a bit worried :(

Took out an S5 on contract not too long ago although it was with Vodafone I was able to return it as long as it was within the 14 day period.
 
I'm not sure tbh. I'm not an Apple fan boy but I have always had iPhones so I'm not used to change! It was an impulse purchase this morning!
