Currently has the Xperia Z2 and I will exchange it for Xperia Z5. Maybe this weekend I'll buy.
I wonder of you the first batches of the device are coming defective and what kind of defect!
It is better to wait for the new batch?
Tks!
Mine is fine but if it is faulty then get it replaced ?

I got mine in another country, that is, there is no guarantee with Sony, just to the store, but it will be very difficult to replace the device.
I wonder why you have chosen the Xperia Z5 instead of Premium! I am still in doubt.
I choose the standard z5 because it's only marginally bigger than my XZ premium is to big for me

I also think the Premium too big! Just think of him by the battery! A larger screen requires more battery!

Well, usually with Sony (dunno bout the other manufacturers), the first batch comes with some defect/s. You have to check personal reviews, here in XDA and other forums.

I think I've got one of the first few batch phones as mine was built on the 40th week of 2015. I haven't experienced any faults with mine. Yeah it got hot when I was first setting it up but that was it. My Z2 heated more than this phone.

if i were you stay away from the UK batches, get it from Taiwan. It seems like most UK phones are REV 1-3, whereas Taiwan is REV 4. Dont have any concrete evidence yet but i suspect most defected phones are in the UK and not Taiwan.
Mine's fine and rev 2 I believe

Mine is a UK rev 2, there's no problems here. You can't draw a generalisation from a few reported cases.
With every shipped batch, regardless of Rev number, there will be faulty phones.

And how will I know whether UK or Taiwan? The device box indicate?
I got a golden Z5 (non compact) REV3. My right- and bottom sides of the screen are unresponsive. It's only a couple of millimeters but it makes it hard to press "p" and space on the keyboard.
Also reading that some people have back light bleeding.
My problem doesn't seem to effect many people though.
I have a rev1 from the UK with no issues. Screen is fine. Sound is fine. Camera is perfect. The only issues are software related which I hope Sony fixes in the near future.
From what I have read the rev3 series seems to be the ones with the majority of the issues. I wonder what the difference was in the manufacturing process?
Hi guys. How do you go about finding if your Z5 is a rev1 etc? I am thinking of buying my Z5 from Clove either this week, so it would be good to know.
Where to find rev?

Rev number can be found on the box by the barcodes

I'd recommend getting the Samsung Galaxy S2 for sure if you can get it on your carrier which is most now .

If you have any questions just ask (^^)b
Coming from a Samsung Galaxy S2 so far I love the screen (can never understand why people want a 150 degree viewing angle!) and the look and feel of the device is so much better )))
Some video would be nice, playing 1080p videos and games and some screen transitions with widgets etc.
I'd really want you to make some battery life tests, and as many UI screenshots as possible - that would ba great
Also, i officialy hate you for being in Japan while i'm not ( really really want to visit Japan! )

I'll see what I can do about taking a video of it playing a video lol
I only got it today so I haven't even fully charged it yet. I'll give it a full run out tomorrow and see how long it lasts.
Things of note so far, the screen is much more accurate than the galaxy s2. While typing at full speed I hardly make any mistakes but I made quite a lot more with
the s2. Also it seems to collect a lot of fingerprints so I would recommend getting a screen and back cover
You definitely have to come to Japan sometime, it's awesome!
yeah the phone is available in sony stores and I assume they are unlocked but I haven't asked them.
I bought it with docomo because it's cheaper

Nice of you to share your joy here. I'll be waiting till it comes out here on 1 March.
However, I'd like you to try a short test. How long does it take for the phone to wake up from deep sleep?
The reason I ask is Galaxy S2 and S3 takes a while to wake up as seen from my video:

You might be familiar with this behavior has you own an S2.

You're also getting a rebate on service (which effectively ties you to Docomo since the rebate expires immediately if you exit early on top of your ETF and remaining handset obligation - in fact the Japanese word for phone contracts has the same root as the word used for bondage).
Congrats man..Lucky you! Waiting for a hands on video..Maybe in a dark room [lights turned off].

Hello all
So after a nightmare getting a deciding on a new phone I got my hands on the XZ!
First I wanna say I have had 3 HTC ONE's, yeah you heard me 3! All had defects on some kind and trust me for a flagship phone the build quality is pretty terrible. I'm no fan boy I have had many makes and models over the years and this is my first Sony. But HTC need to really up the game here on there building and quality checks. Apart from that the HTC ONE is really amazing, under the hood that is, software is good ( dont like this new blinkfeed) and camera even though is 4MP/ultrapixels is still good.
Anyway the XZ is just as good in all departments! The camera is just amazing and Ive only used it in doors. Speed and pixels are lower then the ONE but you wouldnt know unless tests were ran.
I'm gonna keep it sweet for now but overall I'm glad I exchanged my HTC for this as theres more pro's for me with this phone then the HTC.
Oh one question. . . Why does it say my phones up to date and a new FW is out ending in 434? Mine ends is 350 or something like that.
Cheers for reading.
Couldn't agree with you more.
I had a One X - I was happy with my handset - I never had any issues, but I know many, many other people that did.
Now onto the One.... I personally have had 4 separate handsets, and all of them were of really poor build quality. After the 4th one was naff, I decided to go for the XZ - and I too am extremely happy with the phone.
The HTC One is a bad-ass phone, but as stated above - they really need to sort out their Q&A.
You can update your handset using an FTF file - I upped mine to 434 the other day.
htc poor build quality? o.o

HTC one isn't the best phone as some are touting it to be, and xz does most things equal or better, except for benchmarks.

Could this contain the fix for the dreaded overheating issue that's plaguing this device? I really hope so. The overheating is the only issue that's making me consider another device.

Id say you should return it if you have issues beside extensive 4k recording.
Heavy use untill it died, and i can only make it "overheat" with 4k camera work.
(Edit) Scratch that, just did another run with 1080 and just goto to 10m, now I am actualy alitle dissapointed.
As far as root goes, there will always be a way to exploit software. Just be happy we have the best minds on it.

I was testing the Xda app on my new d6503. In fact it is my first post on XDA. I've learned a LOT just be reading. Hopefully this new firmware fixes the 4k recording issue and low volumes (notifications and speaker) . I get an "unknown error" immediately after I start recording in 4k. Once a firmware is certified does that mean it will be made public via OTA or PC companion? If so, how long does it normally take from certification to rollout ?

I did not buy my z1s in the store. However last time I was in the tmobile store about a week ago they were pushing Samsung on everybody. Unless someone came in specifically looking for the Sony they would never point anybody in that direction. Even if someone came in looking at the Sony I could see them easily convincing them to get the S5 over the Sony. They are both water proof (now I know this is not true but to the average consumer who sees them both dunked in some water they are) they both have great cameras. Salesman follow it up with S5 is newer and there is no way Joe consumer is picking the Sony.
I am sure they are getting commission bonuses when selling Samsung phones. Hard not to do that as a sales rep.

I would never buy a galaxy s phone... the way the bezel is designed makes me think of girls and their bubbly letters. My rep was cool though. I went in there, got my dad a G2 for father's day, and told him I wanted to upgrade from Z to Z1s. He didn't question any of my decisions.
