Same here. My Xperia Go is black. Just got it about 1 month ago. Really lag lar. Now regret already. Thats why Im waiting for this too.

Mine already used 1.5years. during the first year it is quite good.
but only this few months is lag. I dunno what's the problem. maybe some apps I using or the new firmware.
Anywhere i need to upgrade it, and Z1 compact is the best choice for me!!

Whopss... Looks like Z1c camera is plagued by flash reflection issue....
http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/02/04/xperi...th-flash-bleed/

I shall overlook this and buy it regardless... since I rarely use flash. Phone camera sucks at low light anyway... sad.gif

oh that's bad!!
if this is real permanent issue then it will be the main turn off for the Z1 Compact to be the best phone in the current line up!!
Hope this can be solved when released here!!
i want to change my Xperia GO so immediately!!

beyond RM1.8k, it will be hard to grab the market.
hopefully it fall below RM1.7k!!!

And the camera flash issue, hopefully it is rectified when it hit the shelf here!!

CHeck Sony Taiwan online store:
http://store.sony.com.tw/is-bin/INTERSHOP....36C47A18A7C125A

Z1=$21500 vs RM2199 ratio = 9.777
Z Ultra = $17900 vs RM1799 = 9.95

So the rate is about 9.8 to 10
Z1compact = $15380, so it should be RM1540 to RM1570 according to the above ratio.
So add a bit extra, it should be RM1599-RM1699.


If compare to Sony China http://www.sonystyle.com.cn/products/xperia/productlist.htm
Z1= RMB4499 vs RM2199 ratio = 2.046
Z Ultra = RMB3999 vs RM1799 = 2.223

So the rate is about 2.046 to 2.223
Z1compact = $3999, so it should be RM1799 to RM1950 according to the above ratio.

RM2058 is seems a bit over priced to catch those early birds!!
Hopefully when released here, the SRP is around RM1699-1899 then will capture more willing buyers!!

Now the AP price is RM1599, so the RRP should be around RM1699-1799 as estimated in my previous post.
so it is coming in Sony store this week? I want it so badly or else i might just get the AP set!!!

If the ori price over RM1900 then i sure getting the AP set, unless the early bird goodies is as good as the Singpore offered!!

Singapore will available from Mid of March, so Malaysia might not far from that.
But it is still at least 2 weeks from now which is quite late for me!!
My Xperia GO is in super lag and the screen is not responsive for quite a while!! ><
SHould I just get the AP set now??? But I want the Lime color set!!
Decision!! Decision!! ><

LYP Sony Center upstair offered RM1599 free SP, Casing. I manage to squeeze a free 8GB memory card but I didn't buy!! tongue.gif
The offer from DirectCD seems more tempting!!
or get from Sony Center by Sony Malaysia, then have 5% rebate points and +RM150 for 2 years extra warranty!!

so in conclusion the LYP Sony Centre has the best deal?

RM 1599 + free SP, Casing, 8GB and the option to take up additional 2 years warranty for RM150?
*
The Sony center in LYP is not owned by Sony Malaysia but just an authorized Sony Center, so i think you cannot claim rebate points or add warranty.
you have to go to major store like The Curve, KLCC, Mid Valley.

Don't get SD/Micro SD card from phone shop or camera shop!!
Get it from IT store, ie Viewnet or CZone, etc in Lowyat will have good price.

Techdybear, the volume is not loud i think is because it is a water resistant phone, not same like those normal phone design.

so i just got back from redang yesterday. brought z1c for underwater photoshoot tongue.gif
i totally forgot that the waterproofing only guaranteed for 30mins fully submerged below less than 1m water depth, i went ahead and dived for i think around 2 hours non-stop. at times i even dived more than 3 meters deep. lucky for me the phone still works wonderfully  thumbup.gif
what's the max minutes/meters u guys sinked ur z1c underwater? come come share brows.gif

nice shot bro!! this will make all other phone owner drool if they wanna go for underwater!!
btw, the IP rating is to prove that device have gone through AT LEAST 30min under 1M water. So it might go beyond that point!!

damn... i have to get one lime color soon!! drool.gif
can share what's the best deal and where?? brows.gif
