Hi guys. Im just wondering if anyone else here have experienced this weird thing. I discovered that one of my pants' pockets has 4 holes in them and I'm sure they were caused by the Z's four corners because they are in the exact same position now I have to patch them! Haha.. The Z's really sharp... Literally!

Nothing here, because I never put the phone in my pants.
You should know that by putting the phone in your pants you're also taking quite a big risk. Many people screen broke while the phone was in their pants so be careful...

Sent from one of my many Sony devices using Tapatalk.
looool this happened to my old Jeans. Didn't think the XPERIA Z caused it I just thought they were a cheap pair of jeans.
The Xperia Z is large and edgy, so this can happen to any pants. It's very important to carefully slip the phone straight in your pockets (in the right angle), otherwise the fabric may tear after a while (even with expensive brand jeans).
Prolonged mobile frequency radiation can cause adverse effects in the pants department
I'm sorry to say this but,.. I don't suppose you maybe thought about not putting phone in pants pocket if you're wearing tight pants? Not only its can damage your pants, it can also break your phone and even worse, it makes you look stupid.
this is a dumb question. seriously.

No this is a dumb and unneccesary reaction and you are the one that looks stupid now.
I have two loose pants, one for work, they both have holes because of Xperia S and Xperia Z., very funny to find this thread about it
Yea, let's all blame Xperia now for your wasted pants, right? If I were you, I would mail their support and ask for new pants because their product caused the problems with your outfit That makes sense.
Let's complain to Sony for it's sharp edge designed phone causes hole in the pants..

To be honest I haven't noticed that, but considering the fear of getting the bloody thing wet im not surprised.
Not dying in the wet it half way towards usable in the wet at least

I did the same with light fluid (paint thinner, fingernail polish remover, anything that has some alcohol) after it started peeling off somewhat. This was several months ago. I do have to warn you about the excessive scratches that appear now. They are quite minor and I have had my G2 since day 1 of its release. And yes... it will may be shiny but it does get fingerprints like the display now.
Mine went off by itself after 10 months of heavy use. i am pretty mercyless with my devices though...

It is a mod. Your changing the phone from its stock look to something CUSTOM. yea it happened by accident. So what? The nexus s we had a bat door mod where you basically do the same except use sanding paper to give the door a black brushed metal look. Not only that I've only had this phone for 2 weeks.. sorry were not leet enuff for ya to figure this out ages ago AND NOT SHARE IT WITH THE REST OF US! lol some people lol always someone hating for no reason lol :-/

Scratching off something that is already peeling off is "custom"? You go on thinking that, bud.
As to why I didn't come on here and share this knowledge? Well, I thought it was pretty obvious that something that is scratching off (the clear coat) could be . . . . scratched off (TA-DAAAAA!!!!)
Its not stainless steel, anyway. Its aluminum. When I first read the thread title, I thought it was some crazy mod where you made a new battery cover out of stainless steel, or some kind of S/S coating. But . . . its not.
Although, I do appreciate the fact that some folks on here did not realize they could scratch off the deteriorating clear coat. So I agree that this is a useful thread. But I'd use something softer than a nickel (or other metal), to avoid scratching the brushed aluminum while you remove the clear coat.
Most of the material is off my panel door as well, just haven't taken it all off yet. But, it scratches up really bad, so be prepared for it to look pretty beat up after some time. Still though, it looks much better without that finish on there.
Post if you have done the same.
Disclaimer: Not for faint heart. Do not try this..
It hurts bruh!!
If you are thinking of doing this, wait for the killer at the end...glad to know I will have a nice looking paperweight if I drop it 3 times
But nice find.
But I'm really impressed with the vertical drop, where the speakers landed first. I expected the chassis to be filled with dents and holes from the rough surface. But damn our phones are sturdy man!
"Post if you have done the same"
Seriously, who in their right mind would do this on purpose to this piece of beauty
I'm actually surprised it holds so well (well, except for not working afterwards anymore hehe).

I don't like that video. As have been told, they didn't record it straight without video cutting also they didn't show if it works between falls, they didn't try to call if problem is only with display. If I want to guess what is wrong with that device I would rather say that only ribbon cable don't have good connection than device is broken.
You should understand guys that these people are sponsored. They might be getting so much from apple or sammy or lg, or even nokia. They need to make the competition look bad so that people would look the other way around. Sometimes they use these kinds of diversion "Oh I'm really surprised that the phone is holding up so well. The screen might be broken, chassis is junk, back plate/plastic/glass is also broken, but on the lighter side the phone still works flawlessly." ORR "This phone works quite well, but I just can't accept the fact that the loudspeaker isn't good enough."
About the loudspeaker diversion, they're just looking for something negative for their closing remarks. Because that's what usually sticks to people, the closing remarks.
Well, and one should always remember that one instance is no guarantee for other instances...
In these drop tests it can matter quite a bit if the angle in which the phone hits the pavement is just that bit off, or whatever other random influence. It is just AN indication, some ppl drop their phone once and it's immediately shattered. Others drop the same phone 10 times wth only minor dents as a result.
But my response was mainly because people shout "FAKE" or "PHOTOSHOPPED" at just about every video or picture posted on the internet, it was nothing personal @gm007

SEVERAL TIMES? Dude, no offense, but are you retarded? after the first time, did you not think to yourself "maybe this isnt the best place to put the phone"?
And for the people saying about being fake? what? why would it be? a) the unit was probably free from sony anyway.. if not then b) the views they get on youtube for that video most likely pays for the cost of the phone. and c) they do this drop test with most of the phones they review. so remind me again why this could be fake?
The reason they didn't show the phone working after each drop, is probably coz it broke after the first drop, which meant that there was no point in carrying on with the drop test. And they wanted to carry on with the drop tests. That's all!! Stop with the bribing nonsense.

Hello everybody,
I am a worried owner of a Xperia Z5. I have had it for a little more than a month now.
I have discovered that my phone is bend and it's not the result of a particular accident. It's bend in my jeans pocket. It's my first Sony and i have never had this problem with other brands.
It's bend just where you put in the SD and SIM card. I guess the frame is weak at this spot
Am i the only one with this problem?
Kind regards
I don't have this issue.. I put my Z5 in the front pockets.. Do u put it in the rear pockets?

Sent from my E6653 @ XDA Portal
Considering the place where it's bent and the phone dimension I would say front pocket with 'heads' down or back pocket with 'heads' up and then a quite strong force applied by sitting down and having the pants get tight and thus bending the phone against your leg. A sturdy casing would be good in those situations.
Are you one of those lads who wears those skinny jeans that are designed for girls?

Maybe....but I have never had this kind of issue with another phone. I think I will avoid phones build of only glass and a metalframe. I guess they can't cope with my definition of normal use.
The other phones may be made of soft plastic instead of glass and medals. It happens more often than people think. Instead of a bend some phones it equals a broken screen even when the body is straight as if there was no impact.

ANY PHYSICAL DAMAGE IS ALWAYS USER'S FAULT!
I'm sorry, but I've got to agree with Sensination.
The phone didn't bend on its own. It was because you were storing it wrong. Sony has every right to refuse a return.
It's obviously not a widespread issue. Just make sure you store your next device in a better pocket.

As i said earlier they did not acknowledge the bend as covered by the warranty. The answer was that the bend was from wrong use of the phone. After that I decided not to fix the bend, because the phone isworking fine.
Okay so i was just looking at my z5p and i think its slightly bent... And i googled it, and saw that many other people had bended z5s and z5ps.. So has anyone made/ seen a youtube bend test on the z5p???? Im getting worried here.

You do know that Sony have renforced corners for drop so do you think the frame will bent.. And the glass can't be bent without heated to a certain temperature... And if you want someone to run a bend test please offer your device and for sure someone will do a bend test for you.. This is not iPhone forum people have better things to do here...

Junior member does not (always) mean an illiterate blab with no practical knowledge, mate Play nice
That being said, my Z5P did bend. It's quite usual with large metal phones and enough pressure applied. It was only bent on the Power Button side, so I assume it twisted in my pocket somehow. ( see attachments )
Applied moderate heat to the side (no idea if it helped but it didnt hurt ) and slowly bent it back. There is a very minor deformation of the steel where the bent was, but its all good.
Sony responded quite well to the issue. Advised me to switch off the phone and not charge it due to increased chance of overheating and fire, and told me to bring it to a service so they can inspect the culprit.
I decided not to, since I don't wanna go without this beauty for a second If it keeps happening, I'll take it back tho.
Keep in mind it took an immense amount of force to bend it back, so I am not worried. Its a very rigid phone. Just not immune to force

With enough force you can bend anything... It's a common sense.. I maybe look new to xda forum as I am using taptalk and it takes my Gmail login as I just moved to android few months back...

Just curious, how did you manage to bend the phone? I'm afraid I will bend mine as it is a bit tight in my jeans pocket and if I bend down, I'm afraid I'd break it.

Yeah mines bent too even when i have kept it with silk gloves and yeah in the jeans front pocket.. It bends abit no matter what
Maybe it wouldn't bend if using a devilcase aluminium bumper. I use one on my Z5 and just ordered a Z5P (for the 4K) and if I like it more than my Z5 I will order a devilcase for it too.
They are very sturdy and the precise fitting is essential for me.
