much better than using pencil to write?

u r right, i also full time using stylus if operate using both hands .. i just worry, the stylus might drop or missing due to mine is very easy to pull out

pencil has the tendency to scratch the SP.... wheareas stylus.. depending,
i dunno this guys using the hard edge one or like the ball one at the end haha

Will pick up the power bank from Sony tomorrow since 50% off. Already have the larger 7000mAh one that came with Tablet Z last time. Oh well, since it is a Sony, might as well get it.

Hi interested on xzu... but ultimaye decision lies on this gadget... how much u bought? Forget check out this one when visit Sony just nw..

My fren xperia z ultra digitizer crack suddenly in his pocket.
there is no impact to the phone as him remember.
maybe a small force of being in the pocket make it crack.
the screen digitizer not tough enough.
be extra careful guys. just want to share his experience.

XZU 4 sure...now high MP dont matter any more since picture can be edited very nicely with instagram big screen all the way haha

Haha you are right

But have to take care XZU nicely because his slim body easy get bent

Already saw a sad news about XZU get bent

I have previously reported my dissapointments in firmware v257 ( UK version). My main complain was on the XReality which does not work at all
I have since than revert back to v532 ( Spore version) and 3 days back I got a notice to upgrade OTA to v257. I than proceeded to lockup the root function and proceeded to update it and was only a 72MB upgrade file. The update was successfully done and root function was kept.
Hoping that this v257 could be a better version than the previous UK version, I was again very disappointed
Youtubes playback on the web browser was again disappointing - all the HD videos playback was blur and grainy, more like 240p, 360p quality !!. Disabling the XReality engine was of no use at all unlike in ver532. The same videos was perfectly played on the web browser in HD quality on my Note 3, Nexus 7, LG Optimus G Pro, Note 10.1. My conclusion Sony is making the firmware update a worse affair than before
Those same videos if I played it on another player such as Tubemate, Instatube, Viral was perfect. So is a matter of software incompatibility of the firmware with the default youtube app
So I decided again today to use flashtool and flash back the older v532

Ok thank you..

I know I long not using XZU.

But I still remember in previous firmware I use (that one with fake hang) where the YouTube quality is terrible! It is pixelate when you on mobile data. The quality switch to HD quality when you connect to WiFi.

I had once revert to old YouTube and it play both perfectly in Mobile Data or WiFi. That moment I assume is YouTube issue, but I was wrong as I don't see differences when playing in my current phone - Note 3, so I believe it had something to do with Sony firmware on the YouTube part.

But the video chopping cut issue always happen in my XZU when view YouTube video from browser - Chrome without running the YouTube apps or download it using third party apps. Against I don't face this issue in any phone I use this year, include Z, XiaoMi2 and Note 3.

Yeah its weird but im using it while Im driving with the phone holder. Sort of trying using landscape mode.

I just tested it. No issues making n receiving calls on landscape mode
