Z1 owners, Philippines - Xperia Z1 General

Hi, Guys!
I just got my Z1 over the weekend and I more than happy. If you have one, or thinking of getting one, and from the Philippines, give a shout!

LOL I'm helping my friends ship 6 from SG because it's cheaper.

Got mine from HK for the same reason. The quoted Philippine price is always rather high.

I think price will still go down in a few weeks... demand of Z1 here in SG is just not that much... Note 3, iPhone 5s and to a certain extend LGG2 still sells more...
(secretly wishing the price goes way down, planning to get mine soon!)

I bought mine in HK last week, then I arrived at the Duty Free shops in Taipei airport in Taiwan, and saw it for 30 USD less than in HK.

I got my Z1 from Hong Kong Kimstore also sources their products from HK.

Got mine from xperia store in Glorietta3 for 34500 with one year sony warranty.

Was planning on getting one too but decided to wait for the Xperia Z1S I'm still one of those avid 1 hand texters so I really need a small phone... I really don't care about the display anyways

yes, i tried using filter your screen app, but uninstalled it after few hours. the yellowish tint is only noticeable when viewing the color gray, but only slightly
i do hope sony will include the white balance setting in the display setting like the one on the xperia Z/ZL

Xperia Z: Releasedate in Germany 21th February

just read it in the news: sony officially announced the releasedate for the xperia z in germany to be the 21th of february. but at this date, only in berlin.
on the 22nd, it'll be available in stores everywhere in germany.
yeaahhh...finally.....looking forward....i'm so exited... :laugh::good:
Ordered mine through Clove UK, hopefully it'll release on the 21th, not the 28th

This is going to be interesting.
I ordered it through a danish company that get their phones from Germany ( I live in Norway).
According to them I'm supposed to recieve it 7-9 days from now.
I could have pre ordered it from Norway but they have expected dates of 7th of march, and so far none have offered the purple one.
Although I have no confirmation for this I have a strong feeling the dk26 will be bundled.
Norwegian hands on review shows this, and I've read that people in France, Germany and others also will get this.
Crossing fingers and toes :fingers-crossed:

f****** s***balls
Just cancelled my order!
Found out now after asking for updated info that now the expected date was 1st of April. What an absolute JOKE
I will probably check a bit more around during the weekend if there is anywhere to get the purple one.
Seems like it is sold out across the board..
Well well, looks like I now might actually pass on this and keep my one x for a while longer and see what others are to offer.
Sad, i really liked the exterior of the Z
Where are you located and who did you order from?
Btw, black, white or purple?

Thumb uppie or downie?
And if you got the purple one I will surely hate you

Definitely uppie :good:! it's really an awesome device! Love it even more every minute. but maybe i'm the wrong benchmark, because i'm coming from a good old htc hd2 (leo).
i ordered the black one, 'cause i think it's the most elegant and timeless color. the white one looks nice, too, but the black screen on the front...
the purple one is a nice one also, but i'm afraid after a few month i'll be fed up by this color.
i don't regret purchasing this phone. it's just brilliant in my opinion.

HTC One Turkey

I think we could use a topic like similar ones.
How many people has it? Did you encounter any problems with your One and where did you buy it?
Darkhan total i brought 50 items none had complaint all had little line on gap very little 3 had headphone broken but they send it to Teleservice so all happy.
Mine were first batches but now i have bought another 5 from UK they seems much better build quality but i dont know which batch they sell at Turkcell
I bought from Turkcell, mine is perfect. They let me check the phone before I buy it.
I bought one on tuesday, but there were errors on microphone.
People couldnt hear me very well, sound was low and nor clear all the time.
I gave it back and waiting for a new unit.
This is my third phone this month,
I was using htc one x for a year, begining of this month I bought xperia z but i didnt like it and changed it to ONE.
I was missing my one x while using the Z, but one is really great

No luck about accessories yet. Noone knows they'll arrive.
But if you go Beyoğlu, check Turkcell Pera Mağaza.

Too bad there's no way to restore your TA partition and relocking your bootloader like Xperia Z. So once you unlock your bootloader you will loose your DRM keys forever
Hopefully there'll be something soon
Ordered mine today, hopefully I receive it by Friday
Can you root your phone without unlocking boatloader? If so, can it be reverted back to stock for warranty purposes?

Mine came in about half an hour ago. I ordered it yesterday from Vodafone just before lunch. I won't be using it yet though, as my screen protector and magnetic charging cable hasn't arrived yet. Hopefully one or both of them come either later today or tomorrow.

I don't think I have much patience once I get it . I need to buy a magnetic charging dock though. Where did you buy yours from? Ebay?
I have to send my Xperia Z to Sony for repair as it's both USB and Audio flaps are worn out and no longer seals properly. So really don't wonna see same thing happening to my Z2

Yeah, I ordered the magnetic charging cable from eBay. I ordered it 1 1/2 weeks ago and the seller is from Australia. I'm guessing he doesn't have any stock in like he claims.
The flaps were a put off for me on the Xperia Z (+boom sound) which is why I went with the HTC One last year even though I preferred the looks of the Z.
I'll be making a comparison of Z2 speakers vs HTC One when my screen protector comes in.
Hope yours comes in soon, BTW are you Om Shakti from Whirlpool?

No.. but I do have whirlpool account with the same nick "kamalmawa" as on XDA and I don't remember the last time I logged into whirlpool forums ... For my understanding HTC one have better speakers compares to Z2. This is due to waterproof seal covering the speakers of Z2. So Sony had to sacrifice some of the speaker loudness to keep the phone IP rating.. I remember someone remove the seal on his Z to find the speaker is way louder

Yes I understand what you are saying, due to it being waterproof the sound will not be as clear. About the loudness though, I saw a video comparison on youtube by btekt and he says the Z2 is louder then the HTC One M8, but the M8 has a clearer sound.
However I still want to do my own tests with my HTC One M7.

Nah mate, just the regular earbuds. Ive got a pair of MDR-EX210B's which I'll use anyway. Not too fussed about the noise cancellation anyway
I just order a z2 from Vodafone today. But they said that box will not include noise cancelling headphones, just standard headphones.
Only Telstra sell z2 with noise cancelling headphones.
Anyone got the generic au ftf yet?
I haven't found a reason for the AU generic, as I was able to uninstall all the optus bloat stuff. But to answer the question, no.
EDIT: aside from the possibly quicker updates as being a reason
