Check it out guys
These are used as a replacement for the default cover so it seems. Pretty nice, not too fond of the brush effect though.
Really nice just like the Xperia X1 effects, and gives it an Xperia ion look!
WHATS A huge turn off is the text moaa, is that the seller name to label its his pics or am actual stamped name on the cover =/?

cheers.
If it's real metal, wouldn't it totally mess with the NFC reader that's on the back? Not an issue if you don't use the tags i guess.

Don't think its real metal, just a metal finish over a plastic cover.

I'd assume just over the images... otherwise they look randomly stamped on as the placement is nowhere near consistent.

If NFC doesnt work with metal, I wonder how sony got it to work with the Xperia P. Nice looking back though. No NFC sucks as I like the Tags.
Just got one of these, messes up the touch response. Shame!
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
just got one of these, NO REGRETS. gives it a premium feel, and NFC is overratted, style for the win! all my friends envy my phone, and now with this, *drool
Got one to try. Luckily it wasn't that expensive because for me it is a waste of money. It doesn't fit right and it is just not looking good. And almost twice as thick as the normal cover.
If it wasn't soo thick I would get one. It does indeed look nice, I wonder if they will have a similar textured plastic one in the future. I would hate to lose my NFC functionality.

Is there any battery covers with the same matte style like the black note, but for the white note? I don't care for how smooth and susceptible to marks it is. I'm considering swapping out for the black one if there is no alternative.
I don't like the feel of the white back either very slippery.

I guess we could take the free cover and detach the front cover and just use the back.

I had something like this for my last phone (iphone 3gs). Make sure that you take it off once in a while to clean off the dirt that stuck in all that holes; dirt could scratch the surface of the back cover from friction. The look is awesome, btw.
Thanks. Good advice. Its also the lightest case I have.

I find that applying a full body shield that is a wet application type that yields a rubbery like finish is best route. I felt the same way about it being slippery so ordered one and have it sitting on my desk now waiting to be applied. I discovered this by accident when I applied one to my Vibrant and fixed the problem I hadn't intended to remedy. I know alot of people don't like wet type because of the rubbery like finish, but this may be a plus for you at this point, I know it is for me.
I have 3 galaxy s3 here today, white. When i look at it in bright light on the back cover its a pattern in the plastic, it looks like a oily map, holograms or something like rainbow colors reflecting in patterns.
Can anyone else check the back cover under a lamp ?

I tought i saw a sony stylus on some z ultra pics ages ago, anyone know where i can get this, id rather get theirs as im terrified of scratching the screen with non sony ones.
I'm pretty sure even sony official one (if it does exist) WILL eventually scratch the screen (even if the stylus didn't, something else will.. say, dust particles)... or I should say the lousy pre-applied shatterproof film instead of the glass screen. If you're really terrified of scratching the screen, apply disposable screen protector. I think there's no way around this on any smartphone unless somebody decided to use sapphire crystal (still they shatter)
I just picked up a couple of these.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-IN-1-Ca...ting_LaptopAccessories_RL&hash=item5656adebda
I know you don't need the capacitive support, but it may come in handy if your paranoid about scratching the screen etc. Plus there's a ballpoint pen built in and you can retract the ballpoint and just use the metal tip if you want. Finally there is a clip on it so I'm hoping I can find a flip case which will have room for me to store it inside.
I found good pen for our phone guys

Great, that looks like the optimum stylus. I would prefer a 100" version of the Ultra though because I think the present screen is way to small for precision with this bad boy.

Hi, I have tried an Adonit Jot Pro capacitive stylus on mine and its awful! Just doesn't work properly at all. Just in case anyone was thinking of getting one
Was scribbling with a mechanical pencil.. then i realized, the other end of the pencil is a smooth round-edged metal (protecting cap for the small rubber eraser). Used it as a stylus... PERFECT
I use Samsung Galaxy S3 pen, it does work. Better than any stylus with round tip. It does have the rubber tip, but way smaller and harder. More comfortable to use...
So... seems there's another "original" cover for the Z Ultra.
This one is called Style Cover CS10 and can be found on the Sony Mobile Portuguese version website:
http://www.sonymobile.com/pt/products/phones/xperia-z-ultra/
According to the description, it includes a pen! :good:
But still can't find a shop to order it

It does indeed say included stylus, can't see it in the images though.
Propably there is a little lug on the inside in the fold.
this cover doesn't have stylus. i have this included in my set.
Looks awfully similiar with my bundled flip cover. It has a place for stylus in the back using some crappy elastic-band. That is, if they're actually the same product. But since my case was bundled inside the zu box, I think they're the same thing.

I absolutely can't understand why Sony is giving such a piece of ... bad quality together with a premium device like the XZU?
They should better bite back and bundle nothing for free, instead of giving away things like this.
Its all about the small details.

That is really a nice case, I'm also intersted in.
Is there any news on if and where that case is available for purchase?
Btw - I saw that case in an unboxing video on http://www.mobilegeeks.de/sony-xper...lichen-unboxing-hands-on-und-vergleich-video/. That seems to be the same guy like on youtube, who is a German living in Taiwan - see the last post on the German page where he answers a question on pricing saying "Hier in Taiwan bei etwa 579 Euro".
Same here that case in the video is the one im looking for.
Just curious but I saw the episode and it looks pretty big so my wife said that is your phone!
It sure is an Xperia and I really think it is the Ultra. Anyone else saw that? :laugh:
PS, checking it again, I think is the Z3 as it looks big buy maybe because her hands are small.

Yup, that's the Ultra. You can tell by the earpiece, the power button, volume button, and the tiny "gap" above the power button where the SIM and SD card flap starts.
The Z3's earpiece is lower, and its corners are also rounder.
