Guys, what is the rrp of this in Msia eh? Any leaked news yet? I tried to search xperia z1 in lelong.my and mudah.my and the price ranges from 2199 to 2699....mudah.my got 1 shop at penang selling at 2199 with 1 year warranty...
official RRP - 2399 include charging dock as standard
any higher price consider as rip off
there's sellers offering lower price than RRP now for pre orders. but be careful don't get conned by tempting offers

I know lumia 1020 is very good in camera, but really the reviewer have to bash the xperia z1 so badly, at the same time praise other flagship like HTC one, s4, and lg g2 ? htc one capture great photo, but Z1 Not to mention that even the downsampled shots are nothing to write home about and the full resolution 20MP photos are lackluster
this time gsmarena is really opposite from phonearena haha. this time round phonearena give Z1 a 9.2 / 10 which considered very high for a sony phone. well i guess different reviewers got different opinions

i pointed out that the conclusion is biased and not fair for z1, and my comment got deleted =.= what should i say? a very trusted and fair website for phone now turn into what?
haha gsmarena slowly biased towards samsung and lg maybe ? lg received good review as well
but reading back their Z review, it seems they do tht review just fine. maybe they expected way too much from Z1 like certain forumers here

i love myself just jk
but yeah gsmarena certain part of their reviews sux, especially camera part. but their loudspeaker and audio quality test is good, and also their review of hardware and design aspect.
a more serious review would be from anandtech, but their focus is not on smartphones. they more on pc side

yea, still contemplating whether to go ahead with this deal or wait till official sony launch roadshow..who knows they might give QX10 to early adopters during roadshow
i have same dilemma with you, thinking bout waiting for official launch day and see what they offer for free gifts. if qx10 or smart watch 2 then im interested, if portable speaker then
but 2138 is really very tempting for ori set, summore got free gift

is there any case where the pre-launch price is cheaper than post-launch price?
AFAIK, pre-launch price is sort of a premium price where some people can't wait to get first hand to own the device after launch, there will be an abundance of stock available. i doubt price will increase then. maybe different freebies.
well, just my opinion.
however now there's seller offering 2180 for ori set with free gift instead of the rrp of 2399
i afraid after official launch the seller will change back 2399

the battery life seems differ from review to review, would it cause by non consistent test, such as turning on the x-reality or more background apps running...
chrome is a very demanding browser. if the review use chrome to decide the total browsing time u will see the result will be vry poor
