Get mocolo brand. Comes with oleophobic coating too. Can get below rm28 

i was using iphone then switched to an AP snapdragon lenovo, but the usage experience was not as good.

does that mean i prefer ios? or would a sony/samsung android give a better experience?

anyone here think z3 flash light is not bright enough?? tried to use camera flash as a flash light...but for me not bright enough...even my old samsung galaxy s2 flash light was more brighter...lol..

Would you mind stating which apps that are buggy for you? It could be just your selection of apps
A study shows that apps actually crash much more often in iOS, just that iOS hides the crash by returning to homescreen immmediately.

I've not used Xperia Z3, but my Nexus 7 2013 running Kitkat 4.4 is smooth, no lag, very fast with 2 gb ram and 1.5 quad-core Tegra. Since Sony's UI sticks close to the vanilla Android, I don't expect much lag. I also read that most users of Z3 here state that it's smooth and fluid.

Personally, I think Android is easier to navigate. With the back button, home, and recent apps/settings I know what to do.  With a single home button on the iPhone, if I'm in the middle of an app and want to go back to a previous page/settings, what do I do?

Well in all honesty, my Xperia S does lag quite a bit compared to when I first got it.

I strongly suspect that's because of RAM, since it only has 1 gb RAM and stuck on Jelly bean 4.1.2 (last update by Sony, don't intent to root it). Looking at memory usage, Swiftkey and the notification bar app takes up quite a bit of RAM. If I'm running certain games, it will hog up the RAM and cause other apps in the background to close. And I get the the "Unfortunately, Maps has quit" notifications quite often.

Running the same game, with Swiftkey etc on my Nexus 7 2013 is no problem. Even then I see the RAM usage approaching almost 700-800 MB, so without Svelte optimisation and only 1 GB RAM it's little wonder lag happens.

That's why i'm looking forward to upgrade to an XperiaZ3 (or maybe Z2, depending on the price difference).

Xperia S, era of the 4.0.4

Its actually the white pullout with the imei and serial no of the phone no?

As long as you dont crack or chip the glass its ok. In my experience tempered glass are more forgiving to re-application compare to plastic screen protectors. plastic screen protectors you need to be very very gentle not to make it even a little bit out of shape. Once out of it flat shape the plastic screen protector will have bubble already. Even when done with a tape will still have 50% chance of that happening.

Tempered glass problem is that you cant use tape to redo it because it attach really really well to the glass. So i uses something with a very sharp point and gently lift it up. Just need to make sure you dont chip. Then gently lift it up to avoid cracks because tempered glass can also be quite fragile if you apply bending forces to it. They are only strong against compression force.

which one? the white pull out paper with the CE XXXX number?

Im currently in maldives and I brought along my z3 to snorkel,guess wat, I forgot to clean the sea water after that and I just found the few spot of the body that contact with the casing got rusted.becareful if u guys are going to use it under sea water. Aiks.
