yea im.. white unit..


gta is not fully optimized to most android phone especially 1080p phone.. which is higher 4x pixels than 720p phone.. where developer it self didnt proper optimze to support most phone.. of course there will be the difference a little bit within S4 pro and S. 800.. but no doubt, ZL was fully optimized by Sony and useful on daily usage.. i'm not very high tech person.. most importantly can type msg smoothly is enough..

im not sure whether Z and ZL do got any different.. but in ZL i feel its ok and can compare with normal DC.. but just now i had taken some photo with friends with ZL and DSLR D7000.. 13mp vs 16mp.. wait i get softcopy from my friend DSLR first..

depend on what object and background u are taking.. Normal mode for complicated scene.. preset scene mode i think works well too.. normal if group photo then use landscape.. can get better contrast photo quality.. unfortunately i cant direct upload over here due to size of photo here

superior auto mode a little tricky here.. better fix in 1 scene mode if u know which scene.. if scene mode cant serve u well then go for normal and adjust ur settings..

post your bad photo and let us see what are u shooting.. depend on ur judgement.. either u want details or overall good photo.. if details, i think smartphone cant serve u well.. if overall without 100% crop, i think smartphone are ok ady..

Overall colour produced are ok.. all in landscape mode.. but if looks on 100% crop.. significant pixel~

erm.. sure can improve again.. but even now if u going to print the photo as hardcopy from 13mp in 4R type, ur photo will still super clear.. unless u print a banner size..

in above all in scene mode> landscape.. let it landscape process and auto improve contrast..

i will post the comparison between Xperia ZL 13MP vs Nikon D7000 16MP later for few examples.. uploading to my flickr..

without xenon flash I worry quite difficult. previous only able to do that with Se satio based on my previous phone.

I don't think now Sony smartphone can do that even z1.

Comparison of photos between Xperia ZL 13MP and Nikon D7000 16MP. Both are using tripod and capture.

Photo are only uploaded for fun to compare in same scene, same time, same pose.. Xperia ZL photo size around 2.5mb vs Nikon D7000 photo size around 6mb.
For full details please enter to the Flickr link and check to full resolution.. but for this size, i think ZL also perform not bad since it compare with DSLR. Looking forward to some comments from you all.

recommend use burst mode if the light in ur situation is enough.. Pool picture like u all are going to jump into pool with fast movement, burst mode can done well.. (Choose either High or Medium speed).. For me i will recommend medium speed, high resolution and much better to look overall.. If you are saying taking photo underwater, i recommend select normal mode, auto ISO, increase little bit exposure, white balance auto should can help u, metering average. Adjustment over exposure should can play the trick.. Xperia Camera always underexposed. sometime increase 0.7~1.0 exposure will get better result..

definition of warm(hot) for each person was different.. if im using gps or surfing firefox, of course there temperature increased.. for me, its warm even im was use naked.. if i play 3D gaming, i will feel hot on touchscreen..

in ur case, if u said apps are running in background and feel phone very warm and unbearable, i recommend you go to sony service centre and direct facing to the technician or staff there.. show them how unbearable over there..

mediaserver is included many things, mainly is due to sound produced from walkman, movie.. If you are watching movie or listening to walkman, there are alwayys actived and u are not possible to close or force stop it.. if u found mediaserver consume much battery mainly is because u watched movie or listened walkman.. nothing hv to do with it.

i got selling iMAK transparent case.. or u can go to look for nillkin if u want flip case..

next time add new contact to gmail.. then everything made into gmail.. then dont worry for change phone or what anymore..

if u are dont want use casing, black suits to it.. got texture on back, wont get dirt. white is easier to get dirt.. red is different quality more.. much cooler.. if u said budget is limited, ZL can serve u well.. im not sure aboout z1 mini in future, but newer model will get better support in future..

depend la.. but i think normal users, aslong as stable firmware and system, i dont care about the android version..

4.3 is on the way.. 4.4 is confirmed for ZL as well.. assume very best ady..

ya very nice price right now.. my friends asked me for phone.. i direct tell him if want budget get mine.. rm1300 like that.. best choice from branded choice.. 2gb ram, 16gb internal, 13mp, stable firmware right now.. net worthy products right now..

of course value of secondhand very low.. but normal users will trying to use the phone till broken or got problem only change.. only 5% ppl will follow the tech and keep changing phone.. ZL really not bad. but mostly out of stocks ady.. depend on your lucks ya..

i got sell ZL screen protector as well.. personal using too.. clear and diamond type.. if anyone need buy for spare or change can direct find me..

ZL/Z i believe the camera concern, in my opinion its can compete with normal digital camera ady if u know to use..

Daylight-Very good quality on colour saturation,contrast and overall..

Recently will keep find time to capture the my university life before im end my study.. previous i got post up some photos comparison between ZL vs DSLR.. and personally feel nothing much different, and if u know to use, i think ZL can compete with DSLR as well in daylight.. like my friends, using DSLR but not so know to use, photo quality a little bit lose to my little ZL.

Night scene photo - will try capture in end of Nov and will post up here again for sharing and let u all comment..

yea.. i got extra order for Z,ZL,Z1.. Z out of stocks.. ZL left 1.. Z1 left 2 more..

every case are same price.. rm25 include poslaju.. if wan add on SP, RM6 clear, RM8 diamond.

although waterproof feature very attracting me.. but since im a student.. and need part time job to buy phone, so i better buy a best value phone and save others money for my phone bill.. in future get job and income only purchase the things i want..
