I will buy this phone tomorrow. Really disappointed with DiGi and its Nexus 4 offer.

In the meantime, watch this:

Buy from Satu Gadget Dot Com. The shop is very near my place.

The White TX is finally in my hand.
Need some time to get used to the larger 4.6" size.

Just a little reminder, don't forget to ask the shopkeeper to trim your SIM card if it is still in original size.
Also, if you are buying from non-Sony shop, the white TX may have a higher price.


For those who wish to know, my unit's Touch Firmware is 'c'.

I think touch firmware 'b' are from a very old batch. All new units are 'c'. If anyone want to look for 'b', you may have to search for it in the area where TX was available earlier. Again, the chances are slim. Just my opinion.

Has anyone tried USB OTG on TX?

Thanks.

You need a US PSN account. A Malaysian PSN account cannot work.
I got the 'Samurai Beatdown' just now.

For phone call vibration, there is only ON/OFF.
For english keyboard, there is an option to set intensity if you turn on 'vibrate on key press'.

I can see that too. It is the touch digitizer.

My TX's battery charge from 3% to 100% in about 1 hour 30 min. Is this normal?

No lah. The grid is the touch digitizer. The circuit to detect finger touch.
No need to border about the b or c touch firmware. Just use the phone and enjoy it.

Z will be definitely higher price than TX. I predict Z will be RM1899 ~ RM2099.
If you have budget and want Quad Core, wait for Z. If not, get TX.
Sony Mobile MY facebook already showing pictures of Z. Coming soon...

For those who has experienced bad battery performance on your TX, please perform a calibration of the battery.
My unit's battery wasn't calibrated correctly when I bought it. So I was getting a really bad/weird battery performance for the past 2 weeks. I can see the battery number dropping in front of my eyes even when not doing anything extensive. At 1 time, battery already at 1% and I can still play 1 hour 30 mins of youtube videos.

To calibrate, just follow these steps:
1. Charge your phone to full 100%.
2. Drain all the power on the phone until it dries up and turn off by itself. See the tips below.
3. While the phone is OFF, charge it until it is full 100%. DO NOT turn on the phone now. How to know if it is full? When the notification light is green, just press the power button (don't hold, or you will turn on the phone), it will show a battery image. When the image does not have a 'lightning bolt' on it, then it is full.
4. After this, turn the phone on and use.

Do not do calibration so frequently, or you will slowly spoil your battery.

Tips for draining your phone's battery
1. You can turn on everything like bluetooth, NFC, GPS, full brightness, WIFI.
2. You can play a lengthy video and repeat it.
3. You can download some 'Battery Drain' apps from Play Store. But I found that playing video is already enough.

In terms of processing power, it should be the same, because same number of pixels.

I think it is about time we start a new thread. Just wanted to ask everyone within this thread.

Do you think we should have a separate thread for T & TX?
Or we should continue to create a V2 combined thread for both T & TX?

If you prefer to have separate thread, then I will create a V2 thread for TX. A T owner will create a V2 thread for T.

If you still prefer to have a combined thread, then I will create a V2 thread for T & TX. But forumer must state clearly their device when posting in the new thread to avoid confusion.

Your opinions are welcomed.
