TCB only offers me 2.1% on PAYG handset sales?
Just about every camera on the market has to use software to correct lense abhorrence at some point in its focal range.
Sony have already said that it will be fixed in an upcoming update.

Looking at one of these. How do the speakers sound?

Oh its the payg price thats down to £360? Nice.
I was thinking it was the refresh deal
Sorry, I meant for Refresh.
As no one seems to go into the Z3 threads anymore I thought I'd ask in here - has anyone had their screen or back glass replaced by Sony and know the cost? They charge £20 to return the phone if I don't approve their repair quote but I'm not going to send it in if it's going to cost almost as much as the phone is worth to replace them.
You've contacted Sony support? It will probably cost £50+.
You could replace the back yourself for peanuts if you dont care for the waterproofing.

I've been informed that Sony don't ever repair the Z series phones as waterproofing them as they were when they were made is impossible, so they only replace them.

The UI is a lot nicer than it was before but I haven't used it enough to notice any quality improvements.
£329 GiffGaff limited stock.

I am really tempted by one of these, but the screen resolution is putting me off. The lack of space once the onscreen keyboard appears being a major thing.
I went from a Nexus 4 to a Nexus 5 and looking back at the 4 (my wife uses it now) the lack of screen estate bugs me.
What is the GPS like on these, the awful GPS on my Nexus 5 is one of main motivations to replace it.

This phone is great by the way. Compared to the Z3c its looks/feel in the hand are so much improved (else its exactly the same!).
You can vastly improve photos turning the exposure down - even better using it in manual. I still think Sony is lacking in this department (caveat, I haven't used the latest camera software)

By the way if anyone is looking for a case I ordered the Orzly flexiSlim case - its so good, so thin and barely adds any bulk to the phone. Not the best for drops I imagine but offers some protection, mainly for scratches.
Yeah I heard rumblings of Feb, and also - its been delayed but not date confirmed yet. Apparently other brand have done the same? Really not sure though.
