Hey Everyone I just wanted to get some feedback from everyone on a youtube project I am starting. I want to make some video reviews that can show off some off the things the X10 and X10 mini can do.
I know a lot of people are not happy that we have NO MT or 2.2 but the X10 is still a great phone and I want to show everyone all the reasons why.
I have posted one already showing the X10 running psx4droid
http://www.youtube.com/user/xperiaproject
I know there is no audio and only background audio right now, but I did not have it on as it is choppy. The videos will get better and ill try to keep my reflection out of the screen . Thanks for any and all feedback.
If anyone wants to help with the project or has any ideas please let me know.
I hope this does not break any rules and if it does I'm so sorry and mods please feel free to close this post if needed.
I am sure you get more audience if you add the vibrator apps or light saber apps so the iphone user will be jealous of what your x10 can satisfy you every night while their iphone can't.
Thanks for the views everyone, if you have any comments or ideas im open to hear them. Thanks everyone

Buy a new camera.
I plan to, thanks for the feedback.
I think a demo video of the x10 running ADW would look great with the right settings/ background etc.. it swipes really smoothly a looks great switching from portrait to landscape, and into and out of preview mode... (Running on my X10i with R2BA026 !!)
Thanks for the Idea I will work on that.
I am currently using S3 and I love the display due to the amoled display. I am however tired of using Galaxy series as I have at least 5 phones which are galaxy.
I used to own Xperia S and flashing custom roms was a pain as I had to go through the whole bootloader unlocking process. Is it the same with Z?
Also I am a little concerned about the viewing angles and bad screen quality overall, is it all true?
This is the only phone that may be considered an upgrade over S3 due to the LTE and a full HD display. Else I can grab S4 but I want to personally avoid it...
Any comments/tips/suggestions are obviously welcome and appreciated.
If viewing angle are something of your concern then the XZ might not be something for you. Beside the viewing angles the screen is just great in my opinion (note: "opinion")
If the XZ you buy doesn't have an unlock able BL then you'll be out of luck.
You can still flash most custom roms, but you won't be able to get another kernel.

I buyed the XZ because it has great design and great specs. And the water & dust resistence is always a handy feature to have.
There are a lot of good custom roms and kernels, and most of them you can flash with a locked bootloader.
About the screen, i think the screen is great. And i don't mind about the viewing angles, it's good for the privacy. :good:
But of course, that's my opinion. You have to make your own decisions
Sold my GS3 last year and got the Xz.
Never looked back however I'm looking to get something new soon as my contract was up in May. Nothing has really caught my attention yet so still happy rocking the Sony. It's a great phone that does not even need rooting.
Go for it.

Don't be put off by unlocking the bootloader. Do a bit of research, in particular, TA backup, flashtool and towelroot. Once unlocked, the XZ is a flashers dream

Viewing angles doesn't matter.
Its just wonderfull how powerfull the XZ is, viewing angles give you some private usage and not everyone need to know what you do on your phone, its personal ^^

After the recent KitKat updates, the Xperia Z's screen has been really great, viewing angles are ALOT better than before, from what I've noticed and aside from that, you won't really get bothered about it unless viewing from extreme angles. Anywhere near head on to slightly tilted will be fine.
So unlocking the BL depends on luck? I never knew that because I never tried it on XS.

Unlocked the bootloader is not needed so far only if you wanna flash a custom kernel !
i still run on a locked bl and still have the "working" Bravia engine [Now X-Reality] and i dont wanna loose that for sure ^^

but for miui etc, you need a custom kernel, no?
EDIT: Also i heard that the triluminos display which is present in the latest Z1 and Z2, it actually gets rid of the viewing angle problem, so i wanted to know if that's something software based or hardware based.

Completely hardware based. I've never seen such a huge difference in a screen upgrade before. Z2 looks great. :good:

but z1 also has that...i was also considering z ultra because it's quite cheaphere but it's not practical.
I didn't make a TA backup before I rooted, which I regret. OTA updates are out of the question. Stock ftf flashing is no problem.
To the og post why not thank people who are assisting you with all your query.
So many helpful post but not even one thanked.

Trilluminous is just a fancy way of saying it's LED Backlit with better viewing angles, I actually have a Flickr Album dedicated to the color-tinge on some devices where there's a yellowish hue (this between my White balance adjusted Z vs a Z1 without adjustment) and have angled photos as well, they are pre-kitkat, which I feel re-calibrated/adjusted the Z's screen settings to give better viewing angles but still not the best. As for your choice between Z1, Z2, or Z Ultra. Honestly Whichever of the 3 works fine. The Z1 is still very capable as well as the Z Ultra and their displays are quite good.
You can refer to the Album if you think the display is something to worry about. Both devices are on full 100% brightness.

Dont expect camera improvements.
Dont expect camera improvements. [2]
Dont expect camera improvements. [3]
Why?
BTW I think it already takes good pictures.
Maybe not as good as a newer Galaxy or Iphone but still very good. (But yeah it could be better with those hardware specs but maybe they are using their bad sample sensors for their own xperia's and hide behind "software problems" and they couldn't do that anymore when they would allow RAW?)
jajajaja, what ?

It be in a few weeks but I certainly hope not end of August if it's according to this schedule.
Ey, is everyone getting the sudden battery drop issue? You guys sure it ain't hardware related? Cuz if it is, I be selling my phone next month if this 5.1 update don't fix it. Gotta go back to removable battery like the G4 or Note 4, really gonna miss my Z1C though.

I'm not having any sudden battery drop issue, probably is battery problem. You could easily change battery if you want to give a chance to new battery.

For demonstration here is my Screenshot of battery life so far, will post at the end of the day again one more
Wow, this mod works wonders. I'm 10 hours off the charger, with normal usage, and it's down to 60% with 2.5 Hours of Screen on time at this time of 18:30. I would have hit 50% around 12:00 and getting 2 hours of Screen on Time with the normal usage I do. Thanks a lot for the mod!
And I noticed that playing games would worsen the use of this mod, but what about watching videos? Such as Youtube or watching videos on BSPlayer/MXPlayer?
Hello members,
Along with my team, we have made a cinematic review of Nothing Phone 1. Just share your valuable feedback to improve us better. If it is not allowed, first of all, I will be really sorry & thus kindly delete the thread.
Fingers crossed
nice review!
Really nice
Video Review is the good word.
Congrat for this review, very useful for all customers with some questions. Personnaly i like my Nothing, like my previous OnePlus before 8.
Just FYI Battery life is amazing in my case with a 7.5/8 hours SOT, far of your 6 SOT and with a true usage (Video, Games, Chat, Call, Web). I have Root and deblot useless wakelock/service, pass all my apps not needed to be on background in restrict usage.
You have right for some point (Glyth color/Optimisation) but for me, for the first Nothing phone of the Nothing brand it's already really good.
