Lol. I was just about to post this. Personally I'm disappointed with Z1's camera. I mean it's pretty good, but not as good as I thought it was. I was oversold on the G branding uhuhu

Maybe you expected to much from Sony's ad?

Hi guys, I'm planning maybe to get a z1 for myself. Can some of you guys give a review on battery life and the phone?? thanks biggrin.gif

My normal day usage... Gaming, whatsapp, web browsing, call and sms...
Last me from 7am till 7pm, usually with 30-40% juice left.
Sot about 3.5 hours, with at least 1.5 hours on games.

Speaking about battery. After the KitKat and firmware update, my battery drainage seems to be a lot faster. I know there's someone here shared a link to XDA thread, telling you to uninstall VoIP apps in order to avoid this for now. But I just want to share it here, once again. I leave my phone on Stamina Mode all the time. Before all these updates, I can leave my phone 100% charged and having it drop only 1% the next morning I wake up. Now, it will drop at least 7% next morning. Also, I will always try to let my phone charge until 100% before I go to bed every night.

So, any idea when the next update will come to fix all these issues?
*
No news on next update. Maybe you can highlight this issue to Sony via the Xperia care. Write an email to them. But in sure they will ask you to do factory reset and repair. Just reply them you did if you have already done so. If more people complain about it via the correct channel maybe it'll speed up their release of updates. Just my suggestion

Why not use the stock app back up & restore? Works great and I have been using it each time I factory reset my phone.

New bug found, on my phone. This started to happen 3 days ago I think. I've not been downloading any apps for almost 1 month. My screen display sleep time will auto change. Sometimes it will goes off in 2 minutes, then suddenly change to 30 minutes. I don't know what is happening. My usual setting is to let it goes off in 30 seconds.
*
weird bug indeed... is there any background apps running that keep the screen on longer than usual?

While alot people complain 4.4.2 update, mine still work perfectly from day 1 kit kat till now tongue.gif

Mine too...

And I think the spiderman game is not so stable. Each time I receive a sms, it will pop up the message saying the spiderman game will be close even when I am not paying the game at that time.

hi guys i need your honest opinion . does the z1 lags after some time using it with accumulative apps ,pics and storage ? obviously u cant tell the difference when its brand new or tester because there's no storage yet.
and how about the signal ? i heard many said its poor and unable to detect waze as fast as samsung ? please advice .tq
*
I think it's normal for all smartphone to slow down a bit after install many apps cos there will be more apps running in the background, whatsapp, Facebook, wechat, line, widgets,...

I too have no problem with gps in waze thus far.

previously i heard many good reviews of this phone ( for those who just got it or just by surveying )
but i came across many negative feedbacks from this thread
*
negative feedback like? every phone will sure to have someone complain. this is not to say the phone is bad or the person picky. but everyone's needs and expectation is different.

feel free to voice out your queries.

btw, y not consider z2 instead? hardware wise it improved on all the weaknesses in z1 especially the screen.

Given a choice for z1 and mi3 which one u guys would choose?tq

I think mi3 no lte right? That's a major set back to me.

And I still love my z1 as of today. Still nothing really interest me to change my z1 now.

I have no problem with the camera.

which mean i would have high possibility to have above problem
how do i check?
could i send for warranty repair/replacement?

no need la. if u have updated your phone firmware, you should have the white balance under the display settings which can easily adjust the colour tone of your screen

hey guys just want to ask your honest opinion if the camera pics of z1 looks washed out ? ive watched the comparison video and pics all over youtube and it seems z1 is the worst of cameras because it produces whitish washed out images.so far are u satisfied ? tq
*
i'm not expert in photography. but so far the camera on my z1 never fails me. quick snap, day shot, portrait, night scene,... i'm satisfied with the results.

did not notice any washout pic. if u talk about the screen then yes. screen will appear washout when u are not viewing it straight on

have u try some hands on on the z1? just go to any sony center and test it out kau kau
