Need a some opinion here, is this worth still worth it to buy even a yr later?
Phone spec wise seems decent, 2 gb ram, internal 8gb, adreno 320..
Water resistant seems like a plus.

Z1 compact looks like the updated version of it, but i sorta like removable battery. Just a preference though..

thats the price these days... dang, acceptable phones are 800 in the least for min 8gb internal memory and 2gb ram. Then again what worries me is the brands though.
Lenovo - aint spending more than 800 for their phones, and all their phones below 800 tend to have average cam (played with a few, pinch zoom once and all you see are blocks)
xiaomi/huawei/alcatel - dont know how things will be, but imma stay away for now
lg - hard to come by in malaysia
samsung - dont think it is the hardware prob, just that their updates will mess you up so that you will have to upgrade phone when they want you too (my bro owns a s3.. top of the line, when it first came out, but not even a yr later it is coming up with all sorts of problems, very unsatisafactory)

is the charging dock worth it? Whats the cheapest you guys got it for?

there is a zr2?

.. Dang was hoping it was true..

Btw even if there was to be an upgrade for zr, i don't think they will go with removable batteries though.. Seem set for all manufacturers to push for non removable.
Only ones steady enough to offer is samsung since they are huge and can make/do whatever they want.
