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.

I din play spiderman though. the game failed to work on my phone :/

After the update i noticed worse than normal battery drain ,it rebooted on me once while surfing using Chrome and another time the phone start vibrate with no reason while using MX player and need to be rebooted.  Other than that ,
its ok. Seldom use the camera and did not notice any rebooting while using it.  tongue.gif
*
try other browser? dislike chrome coz it use GPU also and cause phone warm faster.
my battery din drain also though. Feel like usual. Can easily last me a day with heavy browsing on night time before bed and send it to charge.

Need more info on your usage to gauge properly. What apps were you using the most, brightness level, signal type (LTE / 3G / Wifi)? What usage - games, movies, music, etc.?
*
Mm mentioned in previous post, usually can last me a day until I sleep. Used mostly on whatsapp, Facebook and abit lyn browsing during lunch time and most on heavy browsing on lyn Kopitiam before sleep. Using 3g/Lte (digi not stable lol) when doing that and connected to wifi when not using the phone (inside office lol). Brightness 0% most of the time.

Thx but it exceeds my budget and its almost similar to z2 .at least z1 is good enough as compared with s4 .but I heard xperia phones lags is that true?
*
no lag for me. In fact Sony and HTC UI is very fluid.
Those who said Xperia phone lag is either using entry lvl or pure haters who never use before.

hello there ,
i still haven't got the z1 as i was really considering the lg g2. after an intense research , the z1's camera is still acceptable though honestly the g2 is slightly sharper,but i can live with that . NOW, my question is ..im lazy to adjust settings and edit like everyone does here. does the picture turn out to be lousy if taken in AUTO mode in every shots??

tq
*
Why lazy? just use the M mode and leave the ISO auto then u r good to go

Photo spamming time LOL

wow ! brilliant my friend . absolutely captivating .
so whenever u need to produce great pics u need to press on m mode every single time u open the camera? cause mostly on most phones the setting will be back to default and u need to manually reset them back when u open the camera.

and also , do u suffer from voice calls,loud speak or voice messages(whatsap/wechat) quality ?
i read from many reviews and complaints here saying this is a very big problem and such poor quality.
*
if u already preset it in M mode, whenever u click d camera app it will be at M mode. Unless u trigger the camera via long press on shutter button, that will automatic go to AUTO mode.

I dont use wechat nor voice msg on whatsapp so cant comment. Normal phone for the speaker work find for me smile.gif


EDIT : forgot to mention, make sure it is 8MP for better oversampling result tongue.gif

Thanks for answering to my queries .
I heard the battery is fake.and so called 3000mah but battery only last 4 hours .maybe it depends on usage.

For me example,I like to use brightness level to fullest.standards are data and some apps running.how long would the battery survive?
*
My usual SOT is around 3-4 hours. I am more heavy usage on data + social app, didn't really play game. More or less it'll last me a day. Most also half day. I always turn on stamina mode.

QUOTE(Darkcity212 @ May 30 2014, 12:09 AM)
Wow thanks ! The godfather of z1

But what about low light to dark conditions?  I see some photos and most are saying it comes out blurry
*
First thing first it is better to learn abit photography smile.gif
Know what is the camera strength and weaknesses. I dare to say Z1 camera is one of the best for Android but when come to low light, there are still limitation due to small sensor size.

The camera sensor size in Z1 is 1/2.3" which actually the smallest sensor size that usually use in compact camera (to compare with usual phone camera sensor size are 1/3"). Hence, how your usual compact camera perform (don't take high end compact to compare because they are using bigger sensor like 1/1.7", 1") will equivalent to Z1.

To put it simple, smaller sensor will result grainy image in low light and less sharper (if u push high ISO). Photo blurry in low light simply because shutter speed not fast enough plus handshake. To fix the issue just simply bump the ISO to higher or use flash if you wanna using low ISO.

Some of my photos taken with Z1 but with old firmware https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.5...13094648&type=3
