You said like this, then is true.

This two things not means the whole phone system is very lag and buggy.

It only happen for Album app and lockscreen - ok la, just some issue on the animated part, it often can't show and direct login.

Album app - Sony did something wrong on it, now I am using leak Honami ROM and the more newer Album app which run perfectly smooth as it suppose, so this is high possible Sony did something wrong on current stock Android 4.2.2 Album App.

Two thing you conclude it is very lagging. doh.gif

Well the music widget automatically shows up when you playing music (just like iPhone).
So I think still ok?

Sony shall make the widget for WALKMAN compatible with 4.2.2 lockscreen.

By default of 4.2.2, they is no Music Widget like what Sony did last time, and Sony remove it probably need for slide right to access the lockscreen widget.

But Sony can do a separate widget for it.

Also, Sony really need to redo the whole lockscreen, current Sony lockscreen for 4.2.2 is the worst I ever seen/play. It just something not correct, if the 3D flip part not working, then Sony shall remove it and implement with others effect or even stock 4.2.2 which run much perfect.

I discuss back to last previous post i failed to upload photos. now ok ady.

Z/ZL camera should be same with using Exmor RS sensor. with ability to capture more brighter images in low light conditions. It's true. In superior auto, the settings itself will automatically set brighter white balance and capture the image in low light and its appear brighter photos. Some users are prefer to actual white balance.

Below i had post some samples like in Cinema super low light condition, superior auto mode. and some comparison of superior auto and normal manual setting mode..

For me, i'm impressed with the capabilities of sensor.. smartphone camera is almost like that, got noise but still can complete with digital camera. (dont compete with DSLR). For smartphone, it's was top high camera ady, so no complain anymore.. I do compare with HTC one and S4.. HTC One must more noisy if zoom in, S4 have better stabilization in camera.. but also noisy as same as us..

How do u guys think?

Box is must use. 50gb online storage. Super useful. I store all my photos in there almost 25gb. Used almost 10 day's to full sync to Box.

I had tried, no issue for me.

This is always get on 1st attempt to download every file, it must fail one time first then it will only download succesfully, I find this frustrating.
