QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Feb 26 2014, 03:50 PM) The Z1 was launched March 2013, so now its a year already and they have just announced the Z2. Launch would be later. So its one year. Z, 9 February 2013; 12 months ago Z1, 15 September 2013; 5 months ago, Z2, 24th February 2014, 2 Days ago. Copy pasta from Wiki... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xperia_Zhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia_Z1http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia_Z2EDIT: additional note, the Z1 is only available in Asia from 4th October 2013 onwards, which is 4 months ago, and now we have the Z2..

Apple don't control the resale value... it's determined by market,based on how much people is willing to pay for it.

QUOTE(Godevil @ Feb 27 2014, 08:37 AM) Still not officially launched yet... the hype has pretty much died out...  thats the problem with this kinda slow global roll out.. it stops people from falling into the impulse buy trap... when u are given time to use your head properly, the hype will die out eventually..  the more you know.. hahaha |

managed to molest a unit of Z1C @ Changi, feels reasonably solid, and it feels really good in the hands, just like the good old S2.. i'll see how long i can resist before i put my money down on one..  This post has been edited by kevin613: Mar 2 2014, 11:09 AM |

QUOTE(dembaba9000 @ Mar 3 2014, 10:07 AM) Hey guys, not sure whether i'm slow but as we all know de shutter button for "quick launch" packs some glitch and doesn't work as advertised often. Somethin hit me this morning outta sudden. I have bee on stamina mode ever since, so I thought hey lets white list camera and album app to stamina mode. Surprisingly now it works like a charm. Will test for a few days more to check on the stability. i also did a test about the shutter button, and found it too hard(and too small too) to be used for photo taking without introducing too much shake.. its only good for launching the camera app.. |

QUOTE(alpha0201 @ Mar 5 2014, 02:59 PM) Oh well. I'm suprised that Z2 has a shorter time frame than Z1C since they're gonna be sold at the same time. they already said their flagship is going for 6 months refresh cycle, so if they dont start selling Z2 ASAP, then they can forget about selling it at all.. Z3 is due in august-september if Sony stick to their new strategy. |

i use my phone till it rots unless there's something critically wrong with it, so 2 flagships a year wont affect me.. but for those who upgrade frequently by trading in, ouch.

QUOTE(Zer0 c00L @ Mar 5 2014, 03:33 PM) I also use my phone till it rots but can't help feeling a bit short changed if I pay top dollar for a non flagship phone given that the flagship is just around the corner you can always play the "wait and see" game, though some may disagree.. pandai-pandai lah, if rumours of a successor are spreading like wildfire, then dont go grab the current model and regret later.. |

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Mar 5 2014, 04:05 PM) Just buy bro. Dont be like some "procrastinators'. If within your budget, just get it rather than having the "Z2 new model is coming" mentality like some people here. Keep telling people to buy, but y u no buy? waiting for Sony? Or because don't want to pay top dollar for soon to be non flagship model? Just curious.. |

QUOTE(+Newbie+ @ Mar 5 2014, 07:34 PM) Hahaha, i know exactly how you feel man. I've been waiting for Z1C all along as well, but now got "new girl" in town, I feel like want to molest both first before deciding.  They're not allowed to interfere with marketing. Announcement of the exact date will be decided by them. I'm sure the marketing team already has a tentative date in mind. For now, the only confirmation we have is that it will be in April. I sense someone is going to scream" procrastinator" again... |

QUOTE(Godevil @ Mar 6 2014, 08:50 AM) can la... see many amoi wear hot pant still can squeeze Note3 into the tiny pocket.. my benchmark? as long as i can wrap my hands around it, comfortably.. i cant wrap the Z2 for sure, since its footprint is the same as Z1. S4 waistline is the limit. |
