Not bad, but no dock?
*
Dock is incl I'm the std package. (For the 1st batch, I was told)

The device is snappy, one of the immediate cons I notice is the power button..it is much harder to press compare to my ZL

i guess during launching freebies is only casing and sp ? since you bought from sony centre and according to them both only coming next week

i think i will jz get from online sellers, before the 1st batch stock runs out
*
Maybe it is only the case and sp, but the sales person told me that he will only register my device on the 4th. So if there is any other free gift from the launch promotion, he'll let me know

successfully rooted my phone using vroot. no issue at all, but I do get takut abit when suddenly page have red "X" and a buch of words which I dont understand. But after I click the button once again and voila, all good. Ohh , you also need to enable the dev function for vroot to work.

ps: rooting is allowed to discuss here right? if not, admin please feel free to delete my post.
*
Yea, Vroot is pretty easy to use, except it is in Chinese...and also the superuser app installed is in Chinese as well (already uninstalled it and installed supersu instead)

What do you use for the last slot?

Last time on my S3 it was Camera, but since I have the shutter button I don't need the camera app for my last slot lol

Does anyone know how to remove the highlighted blue square? I find it really annoying..
*
Very weird indeed, mine doesn't have that blue square thingy.. Something to do with accessibility or developer options?

Optical illusion? I don't see how the screen on the same phone can be different. Manufacturing defect perhaps ... Anyone noticed this during the hands on at the curve?

they're still using different display panel for Z1 like they did for their previous model, the white unit i saw in AEON Melaka Sony Centre has perfect viewing angle (no washout), the unit i bought is better than my ZL but not by much.

so far wat do u feel about it?

thanks for your answer!!

From my bedroom, I have trouble getting Wifi Signal from my linksys AE4200 located in the living room downstairs. My iPad 3 & ZL have intermittent connection in my bedroom as well, just that Z1 wifi reception is slightly weaker, just slightly. If i turn on my wifi repeater located in another room, it should be fine then (hvnt tested)

smartwatch is able to read and reply messages, and also answer or reject calls

quite useful for me because sometimes my phone is away from me
*
2nd that, My Pebble is connected to my phone 24/7.

The uses for my watch now are as follow:
1. receive notifications from the apps selected
2. Able to view & reject incoming calls as well as monitor the call duration
3. Control my music player
4. View weather and calendar for any appointment
5. Change the volume or silence my phone from my watch
6. Use it with Tasker and automatically require passcode on my phone when my watch is disconnected from my phone
7. Read Msgs and reply using preset msgs

and etc.

Nice background. Pardon my ignorance but is that a tiny QR code above the SONY wording on rear? I guess purple not for me, I am not hip enough. Thanks for the pics!
Tasker dunno what is that.. I was wondering can you view calendar/upcoming events on it?
*
yup, using third party apps. (I'm using "PebbleApps" for reading sms, weather and agenda.

I'm pretty sure Sony Smart Watch 2 is much more capable than pebble.

(strangely, the Z1 magnatic cable no need to use PISEN to charge my Z1 through powerbank, but will only charge through my laptop usb if i use it with PISEN)

I think those microUSB flaps are supposed to be loose, it's firm only when it is in place within its notched slot. But still, it's a good idea to use that magnetic port to charge. Just that I'm skeptical of anything non-reputable from China when it comes to charging my baby.

some of the Xperia Z owner have water went into their phone due to loosen flaps....that's my concern on loosen flaps.
