I have no experience using this Z1 but I can verify and confirm Stamina Mode on the Xperia Z and Z Ultra is amazingly good and proven. It is the only phone where battery conservation really works unlike the HTC and Samsung battery/power savings mode. With 3G on 24/7 with active FB, mail notifications active battery drain often less than 2% over 7 hours overnight and infact I have recorded many times amazingly even 0 % !! My other Androids I will usually get minimum 2 to 5% battery drop under similar conditions
On my Note 3 , SOT easily 6 hours and that is 80% and more on 3G. If i used more WiFi - 7+ hours is not an issue. It is slightly better than XZU, can match Note 2 but loses out by approximately an hour to the Mate 6.1

do you add any apps to the exception list ? like whatsapp ?

QUOTE(WindChaseR @ Oct 13 2013, 12:52 PM)
Wanna ask.. if stamina mode is on and data connection turned off while screen off.. it means push msg like whatsapp not going to receive anymore msg until screen turn on? or it will turn on data periodically?
*
you can add whatsapp to the exception list. still can receive messages

whenever u buy your Z1, did you get temple run 2 already installed on ur device?

in my device, the apps stated "that this version of temple run 2 is for demonstration purpose only". I think mine might be a demo set..

maybe tomorrow i'm gonna ask the boss why i got a demo set instead of original set.

new owner of z1 smile.gif
very excited n like the camera a lot.

got a question wana ask sifu here.
z1 only can charge by using the docking? can't use the micro USB port to charge?

tqtq.
*
can charge via micro usb port as well

the reason many owners prefer the magnetic port is because to access the micro usb port, have to keep on opening the flap. in the long run it might suffer from wear out and affect the waterproof

Hi guys, I noticed the wifi reception is not as strong as it need to. I also noticed once we drop out of wifi area, it does not auto connect back. Anyone have similar experience on Z1 wifi?

QUOTE(derravile @ Oct 15 2013, 01:24 PM)
same problem, i guess wifi reception for z1 is not strong, was said before

settings > wifi > advanced > avoid poor connections

make sure this is off


settings > power management > location based wi fi

and make sure this is on

sony really did a good job on stamina mode in standby time.

but what really matters is the screen on time, what the use to have good battery life when the phone sleeping all the time?

from my test, Z1(3000mah) only on par or slightly better compareto  my previous HTC one (2300mah), Screen on time around 3.5~4hrs with 3g data on 100%. and my colleague note 2 can hit up to 5hrs screen on time at times with only 3100mah in the same condition. this is wer the Amoled show the energy saving power compare to traditional TFT.
*
have to take into consideration the difference between spec as well. htc one running snapdragon 600 @ 1.7 ghz and also 4.7" screen, compared to Z1 snapdragon 800 @ 2.2ghz and 5.0" screen. the 700mah is just enough to cover the difference

no fight against note because AMOLED is known to save more power compared to LCD

for me it doesn't matter with all these details, for now i don't have to rely on my powerbank when im out and that alone is already enough for me



btw i heard turning off x-reality will save power as well

I find X-reality degrade the YouTube video quality.

ya some1 did the comparison before. x-reality only work with the sony apps.

QUOTE(choonwai11 @ Oct 11 2013, 11:36 PM)
Seem like X-reality is the culprit for the grainy video...

when i turn off, the video is very sharp and fine.

When x-reality on, the process try to enhance the contrast, so when the object is small in the video, the edge(lines) seem to be blur, not sharp. but when display large object, it is fine.

X-reality give a more "3d" feel due to the better contrast~~~~

mine is abit wash-out, comparing to my ipad mini & motorola RAZR (Super AMOLED).

ipad mini felt just nice

RAZR felt saturated

but Z1 got abit wash-out, especially the purple & dark purple wall  flex.gif  i think is the gamma tend to be to high~ the graphic is like have a "white" tint

maybe we can have a TT session with all the Z1 members, then we can compare our screen~  tongue.gif
*
if compare to AMOLED screen then its expected the output will be more saturated in AMOLED. since AMOLED always known to give more saturated colours compared to LCD

i never compared my phone to other LCD, because i never played this game on any other devices before. so the colour is fine for me on Z1
