More expensive and more drivers doesn't always mean it's better, but most of the time yes..  But usually there is some level that u already satisfied, and at the end of the day, that justify your money worth spending.. I mean, if triple driver can satisfy me, I wouldn't go for the 4 drivers which is of course more expensive..

I'm still observing the XBA3 sound signature.. Hurmmm... Not sure if I like it..  To my ears now, my cheaper re400 is more lovely..

Anyway, a quick note about sbh52.. I can hear degradation of sound quality when I play music thru sbh52 than directly plugged into the phone.. It takes down the level of details, mixed the sound to be a bit muddier, and take away the lowest rumble and the highest chimes.. As expected, a bluetooth audio device is not able to retain the analog sound signal properties, rather losing much of the sound quality white it converts it to digital.. In spite of that, sbh52 is the best bluetooth audio device I've ever tried, at least the sound still enjoyable, but the previous device that I tried sounds were totally crap that I couldn't bear off.

XZU audio sound is quite low. Most of times I play at full volume or slightly lower.. Damn I hate it.. While I can't bear full volume on my ipod..

You should try , not necessarily to buy it, especially you already decided on XBA3. I can tell you, this XBA4 is noticeable different with 3 for sure, but of course, preferences is somehow very much individual.

As for bluetooth, i owned Smart Wireless Headset pro before, and it is not to far from SBH52 in term of sound reproduction. smile.gif

but HTC's are known for expensive devices,
So im guessing in the RM 1.8k or RM 2k range for the One Max?
Correct me if Im wrong
My 2 cents
*
Above RM2K for sure. HTC is reputable brand and well known as premium built phone. Only i see the drawback of Max is snapdragon 600 and lower internal 32RAM compare One for 64RAM. But still then it has fingerprint sensor and big screen, so no way for lower than 2k price range....in dream maybe. doh.gif

Anyone in Penang got their hands on XZU LTE official units already? I been calling every Sony Ctr and none of them have any units for sale yet....zzz

They don't even seem to be aware of the 17th Oct availability date zzz

Some even say yes they have when I approach their outlet but when they brought the unit out, its 3G units  sweat.gif  doh.gif

Same thing happen in JB. None of Sony Centre carry LTE yet. What is the 17th for??? mad.gif mad.gif I think the only way is to get from LYN here. I am so worry about transportation wise.. rclxub.gif

Yeah, I am also concern about shipping, RM2k+ is a lot to me if it gets lost in transit sad.gif

Seller has no responsibility over transit loss and the most Poslaju claims for max RM300 provided goods is not prohibited. I think electronic goods cannot be sent thru poslaju....you bear own responsibility.

I don't think the case is worth that price, official or not. I have one myself and I'm willing to let go for RM50 or lower.

I sell it for RM40 too...

Okay fine! RM80 + RM6 Postage! Happy?

Nothing personal. We all just try to help,make sure you can sell off here. Maybe you can try places like Lelong or Mudah, where potential buyer not origin from here, and they are willing to buy as long as price lower that Sony RRP. Nothing wrong to sell it at any price level as long as below RRP, for sure will be buyers out there...Good luck to you, friend.

How you diagnose your proximity sensor? Not necessarily hardware issue here, since so many SOD and FH happened in XZU. maybe you should reset back to see it work or not and last resourses is Sony service centre.

Tired from waiting for the availability of LTE edition at Sony Centres in Penang, I am placing my order from directd and paid him. Now waiting for the arrival of my purple unit tomorrow. Hopefully the transaction is smooth as this is my first time buying from them.

Didn't expect Penang is the worse of Sony interest, they can delay till today where whole Southern and central part already getting it on 18 or earlier... buying from directd is completely safe , just you have to worry transit from pos malaysia.

If you're in Penang, I think it will be worst waiting for SenQ / Harvey Norman than waiting for Sony Centre. Better buy thru Directd or other trusted seller here.
Yes!  doh.gif  It's totally mind boggling to have even got replies such as :

1. Sony Gurney : Malaysia wont be bringing in LTE edition at all.
2. Sony Queensbay : LTE edition have not launched yet (reply on 20th Oct).
3. Sony Mobile MY Facebook : Whatever post / message to them will never get you any reply at all.
4. Sony Malaysia Facebook : There is no tentative date for launching of XPERIA Z Ultra LTE. We will keep you update from Official website once the launching date confirm. Thanks again for your interest. (This reply is again on 20/10/13)

All I can say is WOW  sweat.gif   doh.gif   wink.gif   rclxub.gif
Sony : Make believe huh  yawn.gif
Yep, transit from pos malaysia is the most worrisome. But Directd does provide shipping insurance if you pay additional 1.5% from the item price which I paid for and which turns out not so bad. RM2020 + RM20 since I went for the Purple colour so RM2040 x 1.5% = additional RM30.60 and add RM12 for poslaju so total : RM2082.60 is a fair price. Still RM116.40 cheaper than getting from Sony Centre. Can get a casing & SP and still have balance for teh tarik.

Well...hopefully it arrives tomorrow though  thumbup.gif

It is somehow unbelievable to have such a statement from within Sony..We can never trust any information from whatever sources as long as Sony is concern. It can explain why Sony phone will never have good sales figure in Malaysia. doh.gif doh.gif
