Well I'm trying to patiently wait for the Z1 compact. Been waiting for it since December. =A=
I hope that it comes in this week / next week / within Febuary.
There're people on Sony mobile MY's Facebook page saying that it could be coming in next week. So i'm crossing my fingers =w=

Can't wait to get my hands on this phone OwO+
Opinions thou, which would you guys prefer? Pink / black?

Hope so. The magnetic dock cost rm180 to rm150. whistling.gif

That's....expensive blink.gif
Even for the Z1 when it first came out, around lowyat I saw it being sold around rm110?
This was between the first and second batch of course.

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..

At leas you all got the email ... till now I still got no news. lol.

Anyways, the media event in Jakarta is today. hopefully we will get an announcement on the Z1C today. *crosses fingers*
*
I emailed Sony a query about the Z1 compact and it's launch date.
And this is their reply :

"Thank you for contacting the Sony Xperia support centre.


In regards to your enquiry, we have not received any news from Sony HQ when Xperia Z1 Compact will be launch in Malaysia. Please stay tuned to our official website for more information."


=A= Don't tell me they themselves don't know when is it coming to Malaysia??? doh.gif

MYR 1800 for official pricing with unknown launch date vs MYR 1599 AP pricing from directd. Sony might losing one potential customer. T__T

I'll probably still choose to get it from Sony Centre though.
Depends on what bundle they provide. If it's like Sony SG's bundle, it's not bad an offer.

I hear from Z1's campaign that the bundle wasn't at all nice for Malaysia's.
Especially after first batch finished.
Dealers had to get the dock for Z for customers who's not getting from Sony, which doesn't charge as well according to my friend. shakehead.gif

I'm hoping that they'll include that dock and a memory card in the bundle.
Anything else is a bonus (to me). hmm.gif

On Sony MY's Facebook you get people saying it's mid Febuary / early March.
Now it's March / April. shakehead.gif

It's dragging later and later with each rumour. blink.gif

The seller claim that this is an improved version for the previous first gen. Dont know whether true or not. But no matter what Rm50 for the cable is cheaper than buying the whole dock from Sony.
*
But which is more efficient?
This cable or the dock? blink.gif

They say you pay for what you get right? hmm.gif

Well if you travel, the dock is going to be an extra hassle

Isn't the dock a usb thing also? Or is it like a normal charger (3 pin plug thing)? blink.gif

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Mar 7 2014, 07:08 PM)
Personally I prefer the cable coz you could bring it around without the hassle of carrying the dock.  nod.gif
Problem is, you need to cables, one at home and one in the office because you dont want to risk damaging the flaps when you open and close them too often.
*
Considering that we can lunge around bigger sized powerbanks than a small dock, bringing the dock around (comparatively) isn't too big a problem right? hmm.gif

Would you guys recommend buying ap for Z1C or wait a little longer for the official ones?
*
It depends on what you need?
I'm waiting for Sony's bundle.

But considering all things, like warranty wise.
Because if it's an AP set, have to go back to the same dealer.
When buy it at Sony, can just go to any Sony centre that's available. thumbup.gif

So probably i'm going to wait (getting frustrated thou at the drag) for the official set =3=

QUOTE(funny duck @ Mar 8 2014, 02:19 PM)
But I like the magnetic cable more than the  dock.You can use your phone freely while charging with the magnetiic cable but the dock just sit on the table and you can't take it with your hand while using.

And did you know that inside the dock is actually the magnetic cable.So you are likely to pay more for the dock which you can easily get the magnetic cable for a low price. icon_rolleyes.gif
*
QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Mar 8 2014, 02:06 PM)
Anyway, the magnetic cable is just an alternative for getting an extra non original charging cable for the Xperia Z1 Compact. Not meant to replace the dock or anything.  nod.gif
*
Again depends on your usage I guess. I don't like to use my phone while it's charging through wall plug.
Heats it up too fast. Somemore we're advised to not use for calling when charging :3

The dock is a definite buy.
But maybe i'll get that magnetic cable for outside purposes like powerbanks hmm.gif
For on the go, the cable is more suitable yes.

But if we stay put somewhere, the dock is still preferable for me i guess smile.gif thumbup.gif

seeing many country haven't get this yet, including US...
perhaps sony think that since nowadays smart phone grow bigger and bigger (S4 vs S5, Z1 vs Z2, etc...), so sony think their consumer who prefer small phone have no other choice, hence can let us wait long long...
*
But this really is too long adi wei yawn.gif
Excitement of getting the phone is dragged out until feeling bit weary adi.
I do hope Sony knows what're they doing. =3=

new z1c owner here (black)  icon_rolleyes.gif

bought it at directd earlier at 9pm-ish for 1599.. got the usual freebies, car charger adapter, earphone jack plug, mini s-pen?, microusb to usb adapter

i think this ap model came from china, looking by the words on the seal and booklet all chinese i don understand  sweat.gif

still configuring it out, but i really like how solid and sturdy it feels in my palm  thumbup.gif

So directd's bundle is as such.
I just really want to see what Sony has to offer before deciding which to get. unsure.gif

yes exactly, hope sony don't force me become ifag
they need know that they are not the only small and fast phone maker in the world.

They need to know that they're not the only phone maker. shakehead.gif
They're chasing a lot of loyal fans of Sony away, or at least, the market for this model, by being this slow. doh.gif
