Thanks for the advise smile.gif
Now I'm really keen to buy XZU.
*
In short, the best selling price for XZU is the display and the overall design. The rest are still crappy..

Also the performance - Snapdragon 800 + Adreno 330.

Beside that so so stylus input and average loudspeaker. Z Ultra is solid features phone not a crappy device.

The phone performances are now dependent on the OS. In regards to the hardware, it's already good enough for the OS. It's just the OS optimization that is giving the drawback. Snapdragon 800 or not, more or less it's getting over killed. Much to the widely rumored 3GB RAM Note 3, I don't see a point now that the 3GB is necessary.
Again the stylus or pen input on the XZU is definitely a marketing gimmick. Purely a marketing gimmick to draw the attention of the public away from Galaxy Note.

Don't get me wrong, I like the XZU. Awaiting the LTE version before making the leap.

The optimization is well done by Sony & fixed issue faster than expected, it is far better than Samsung.

3GB is damn required by Note III since it is base on S4 features. Current S4 cannot run in optimal performance all due to heavy features of it where 2GB no longer enough.

I saw your short review on XDA.
Makes me very itchy to switch over to Z Ultra. brows.gif

One day if I pass by SenQ or senheng, I would like to try to put in my jeans pocket.
I'm more concerned about this currently.

Not sure if you guys encounter this problem before but I found that even after you disable the GPS via the Toggle Button The Google Service will still be able to use the GPS and this will give you alot of wakelock from NlpWakeLock NlpCollectorWakeLock & NetworkLocationLocator, which are the top on my wakelock list.

The only time i don't get these wakelock is when i disable the following:
Location Service->Access to my location->Off
Let Google apps access your location->Off
GPS satellites->Un-Checked
Google'sLocation service->Un-Checked

I get significant better battery life after i disable them. =)
I see, Thanks. Yes, i did call them yesterday to check. And they told me stock coming in maybe next week.
Going to drop by sony store the curve again this sunday since i need to go there anyway.
If still don't have then i will just get it from Lycus trading.

Every android devices had this problem even from the beginning . It's even worst in a nexus. Google is so hell bound to know where u are that they willing to sacrifice RAM and battery for it. In 4.3 even the WiFi would not be off if u disable it. Continued on triangulating our location with WiFi signal.

Hated it but disabling it would be annoying as I use Google map a lot

All these are standard freebies from SenQ and if you are a plus member you are entitle to extended warranty as well. The problem I didn't take the plunge is because no LTE and gazillion of screen problem reported from various forum. Would wait a month to see how things turn out and also for LTE.

Gazillion of screen problems??? I don't think any of us here has ever reported such
Amazing beautiful display. I would say is the best I have seen to date, better than my previous htc1 n S4
Don't get discouraged by just some negative comments. I have view some of these so called display issues n I conclude is mainly hardware problem. Again buying gadgets is sometimes based on your luck. I would say there are much more positive comments about display vs negative ones
