Very nice. But no details on whether the case has sleep/wake function support or not.
The distributor for Sony phones now still Midland?

Since certain sellers selling the XZU at RM21xx, I would reckon that the distributor pricing is about RM2000, which is in-line with the earlier distributor price you mentioned.

Personally, am interested to get the dock and SBH52.

Got forumer selling the casing already + SP

Not relly my type but might as well get it since there's nothing in market at the moment

My first 5 inch which I bought ( UK Set) was Dell Streak. Performance mediocre but because of its size I was using it as my main phone n the S2 as secondary phone. Than I sold it for Note (5.3) followup with Note2 ( 5.5) n lately Vega 6 ( 5.9), Mega (6.3) n Mate (6.1)
Oh I love big size phones
5 inch n below sizes macam toy to me only

HTC One is even worse. I hardly used it vs the S4 than when I have both of it around same time
Will STOP buying 5.5 inch n below phones no matter how good. Display size my main priority

Most likely yes. The thinness of the XZU is too irresistible! It feels like a sweeter version of my iPad Mini.
Yes, I'd order this too if there aren't any better cases from Sony directly.
Thanks for the clarification. I was thinking that would be the case, else no way the Sony Centres could have gotten their stock so fast!
From the XZU promo video by Sony, where the lady sat on the sofa and opened the flip-case, and the XZU turned on by itself. If you read the specs of the dock, they have special adapters for the cover too.

Yes, Haha. The metal sides on the white look so good! But I probably will settle for black. I love how the glass-back of the XZU shines away so beautifully!
Perhaps wait til the LTE version is out, then there 'could' be a price drop for the '3G' version. After using iPhone 5 and HTC One, it's hard for me to even consider plastic phones, and rumour has it that even the Note III is plastic, so no issue to get this XZU. Unless Samsung sees consumer trend towards metal build phones as something that they should look into, Samsung might just consider emergency mass-production of a metal build Note III (which I surely will consider!)
The size is good to use with an external keyboard. Hope it can work with my Apple Wireless Bluetooth keyboard though.
Some Penangites have gotten theirs from Sony Centres in Penang I think... Can check back posts here on in the previous thread.

There should be a noise-cancelling mic on the XZU, right? So even in noisy background, the earpiece should be quite good in performance. Haven't tested it myself but will check on it once I get my XZU.

One Max and Note III won't have the raw sex appeal of the XZU for sure. Other than that, yeah definitely also looking forward to what those 2 upcoming phablets have to offer.
Oh yea, I was mistaken then. Hmm, oh well, my hearing is not as good as my younger days too. So hope it's not a problem for me.
Can.

But I can tell you why HTC One will likely to the XZU right now:-
- Colour vibrancy loses to Triluminos
- BoomSound Speakers confirm win XZU
- Sense 5 looks good, but really bad in actual usage until the point of it annoying me. It is a mess and is not designed for user-friendliness even though it may give such a first impression. BlinkFeed is for novelty only and you would rather use individual apps in the end.
- Battery standby time is quite poor.
- Camera is terrible. Even if iPhone 5 has a 4MP sensor, it would still beat this Ultrapixel by miles away. Again, 4MP sensors should never be considered. I normally use my phone for scanning documents and taking notes written on large white-boards. This does not go well at all with the poor resolution of the Ultrapixel camera since I need to zoom into the photos for extra detail.
- Full aluminum build especially the back makes the phone too prone to scratches and even chipping/dents if dropped. A metal phone is supposed to be strong, but you need to handle this like a baby. XZU design is more practical.
- For such a small battery (2300mah) charging time is unacceptable - taking close to 3 hours or more to charge.

HTC One lasts longer for me definitely. iPhone 5 battery life acceptable only, but not a problem for me since the charging time is SUPER fast. For example, if I forgot to charge my HTC One and I will be out and about the whole day, that's it! The XZU should be able to charge fast due to the Qualcomm dual-channel charging, which HTC has smartly / stupidly disabled in their HTC One.

Finally can having fun with Xperia Z Ultra.

Cannot wait already. haha!

XZ no longer with me, can't compare, but can compare base on my memory. Hehe...

Just an opinion,

Its a newer and faster chip, larger display with Xreality (the only promising part) and its slimmer.

But ZU has draw back too. No removable battery, card slot, no camera flash, will have terrible battery life for Phablet,

In movie mode hitting 97% color accuracy while still having higher contrast, true black, and better white balance makes it way overall the closest to reality and screen has ever been

LTE Edition will not be any difference to to H+. Just a carrier thingy

P/S : And the worst ever thing Sony has done is to have forgotten the Video Call button? What's the point having front camera with no VC key. Yes, apps can handle it, but Samsung has done a better job on this aspect. C'mon Sony, will you eve realize?

Haha! ops! just simply snap.
Oh! then that one can, but I already decide give TZ to my sister as no longer need it. TZ will be last tablet as of now.

It's supposed to replace my iPad Mini! LOL. I'll see how it goes. The 30% lighter weight would be most welcome for sure.

People are selling XZU for 2099 in garage sale....

Haven't launched already price drop    but I gotta wait for the LTE edition 

dont worry Sony and Asus have good reputation for being fast, open and helpful...

especially from CynogenMod group, a bunch of them (elite member) jump ship from samsung to sony

ya sony is fast and they r willing to announce their commitment in releasing 4.3 for their flagship device
unlike HTC and Samsung, kept slient oni... 
even if they said they r going to release 4.3... we have to wait for 1year for it

if u hv time & interest, google why XDA elite developer all jump ship
nice story there... case are lead by CM head
Paranoid Android!!! (true tablet, pie, halo)
and dont forget MIUI!!!

woii... i wanna force them to release source code for Xperia SP and L
even XZU too 

Obviously a mistake
This seller often just cut paste specs. Few such cases I noted
Latest Example 2  month ago he advertise 16gb mega 6.3 but actually only 8gb AP set
Call him to verify

possible..
okay.. time to find some buyer. lol

I SMS him n he now say not sure !!!! Let me know tomorrow only
Yes I will smack my phone if is indeed LTE

Looking at Sony roadmap for 4.3 update, they seems to suggested all future Sony firmware would be Running AOSP. With Sony apps and X-reality being ported to stock android.

So essentially all Sony devices are like those google edition one

They told me screen protector came very soon. Case wise later.
