QUOTE(wc_how @ Nov 2 2014, 11:03 PM) Does anyone know what is the white dot on the top of left side? I have no idea which is the app causing it. It pop out randomly and there is nothing in the notification bar. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « that's for ur google now notification.

QUOTE(mode893 @ Nov 2 2014, 09:52 PM) The official wireless charging plate and casing pack is out. I got it today, pretty cool as per attached photos. This is my simple review: The charging pack consists of separate boxes of charging plate & charging cover but contained in a single package. The charging plate box consists of the charging plate & charging cable (different from normal usb / magnetic cable) while the cover box consists of the flip cover. How it works is the flip cover has magnetic points that will come in contact with the magnetic charging port of the phone once you fit the phone into the flip cover. There's a really classy circular led underneath the plate that lights up in a pulsing glow fashion the moment you place the phone on it. The charging is FAST unlike what I've read before and I'm fully happy with the charging rate. However, it does heat up while charging but nothing to get alarmed about. That's all that I can tell for now as I've only had it for about 2 hours. I'm a happy camper  Nice, i didnt know the plate has lights below Plate bundled with flip cover? Definitely not from Sony Online Store

Ok i sent my phone for service about a week ago and they said no spare parts so need at least 3 to 4 weeks to service.... BUT i just checked the service website to check the progress of my phone and i was shocked to see ''READY FOR COLLECTION'' so i am wondering is it a system error or the spare parts magically arrived recently... Cant bother to call their service center cuz always fail.. gonna check it out at amcorp tomorrow.....hope for the best...

Can't blame him . I went to SenQ that day to try , hmm.. nice build and screen . But the phone really lags a lot , ask him the customer service with wallet in hand , he replied : " Demo unit and out of the box unit very different , demo unit never set up , a lot ppl touch simply click here and there , some even bluetooth songs and stuff into it , i guarantee you the new unit very different " . But no money so just walk away .

I came from the Z1, 1 thing i noticed is the Camera lag on the Z3, its pretty noticeable only if you previously owned a Z1 or Z2. Doesnt really bother me just something that ive been noticing,
Been comparing certain things from Z1 with the Z3, there are differences in the responsiveness between boths interface wise, Z3's overall OS itself just feels a tad rushed. Is this something related to the 4.4.4 KitKat entirely im not certain, though i do know this, there was some initial teething issues on the initial release of KitKat on the Z1's
Lets see if Android L makes any difference. Been using it for a week. It's a really good phone not the perfect has its issue's but overall its been great. especially the battery life. I can average around 7H SOT without Stamina Mode turned on.
