i was initially thinking of using it naked or with some thin bumper, but seems like it'll need extra protection to stay pristine.. dont know if we can just stick some "screen protector" over the back to prevent scratches.. wanna keep it thin and light, otherwise defeat the purpose of buying a small phone in the 1st place if i were to use some big ass case/cover..
also worry that those wrap around case wouldn't fit the charging dock as i dont wanna pull and plug the USB flap cover too frequently, a lesson i learnt from my previous Moto XT720.. flap covers dont last..

read the XDA link.. if it's just 1 user, then of course i'd agree that he's probably a hater...
seems like this is an even wider-spread issue than flash leak..
Z1F on the other hand got special treatment to glass back.
really sad, why do they have to cut this 1 corner to ruin the phone..

anyone travelling to japan?

USD745 = RM2455...
TBNT.

i'll wait it out, see if any company will release a front and back tempered glass protector, so i can keep the Z1C naked.. or see if there are other surprise during MWC 2014..

mostly wont happen as white paper spec also changed d..

Yeah i have the exact same thought as you, just using thin layer of external protection to cover the phone so that it wouldnt be too bulky in the pocket. I think if use screen protector for the back also need to use anti scratch film, maybe need put 2 layers to make sure really no problem
Ultimately when it comes to z1 compact we want all the power of the bigger bro Z1, compressed into a 4.3 screen which will not make mobility hard for us especially when we want it with us all the time / in our pocket.

Even if the backcover is made of glass, it is still prone to scratches. Why would you still install screen protectors on your screens when it is already gorilla glass, etc? No matter what, if you really want to protect your phone you still need a back cover to protect it.

My current 3 year old HTC is fine without any form of protection in both front and back panel. Granted that I put keys in the same pocket with my phone but the outcome is not as bad as that shown on by the 4 days old "intensive use" on z1 c. That saying i'm not quite sure what is the material used for the rear but its definitely not glass (i'm going to go with mixed component with mainly plastic), but comparing to Sony's updated white paper of "high rigid" plastic and also the many complains on xda, based on preassumption i think Sony really skimped on the material that badly, which is really a shame.

when i say "surprises", i mean other manufacturer, not sony...
i dont expect any changes to the Z1C, especially on the hardware side, since that'll likely lead to recall if not mass return in markets which protects its consumer.

wow, Finally AP also come d..

Ap set rm1788...

Only the seller have your answer..

It doesn't really matter anymore since it comes with the white balance setting. Yellow tint, blue tint, green tint... All can be adjusted.

Now sony include this setting...
