Ich bin gespannt, wie kratzresistent es ist. Habe aber eben mutig am Rand probiert, mit einer Nagelschere zu kratzen, und da ist GAR NICHTS passiert.

I've been browsing the web for a long time, reading about peoples "tests". Most of those people weren't even sure/didn't know about the factory applied protector so i didn't trust those.
Now that someone who exactly knew what he was doing said it's very durable.. Did anyone else remove the protector and can confirm that the display is as tough as Corning's Gorilla glass?

Confirmed with my XMP. Removed the protector, put in my pocket full of nickels and key, scratch using my locker and my motorcycle key, and got bitten by my son (2 yo) several times. Should be the same on ray too....
Mine fell down while riding my bike. Whole display broken, but it works gr8!
In Germany it costs about 150€ and the support wants 150€ for a new display, so I use the broken or buy a new xmp

I won't buy a new xmp. I like sony, but i want a better phone, bigger screen,etc. Maybe a xperia sola
If I try to fix it by myself and it doesn't work, I can't use my phone any more. And atm I can use it, it works very well. It only doesn't look good
Buy a new one, yet the xmp get fixed. In the end you'll get 2 phone...

What does refurbished means?
Is it like a new one?
Does it have any thing wrong?
Because the Asus transformer has a very epic design

Refurbished means it was returned to to a defect or something similar, then it was fixed and 'refurbished' and now it's sold for less. Sometimes you have a shorter warranty on refurbished devices.
I bought a few devices refurbished (macs for example) and I never had a Problem with any, still you should check if the discount is worth it if it's only a few dollars.

Hello,
I know that Galaxy S4 has water protected version and Xperia comes built in with it.
How about LG G2, If I wil go on the street while its raining would my phone go under any risk?
Thoughts?

I haven't seen any waterproof cases yet. Try Amazon ? The G2 is much more popular in the states than in the rest of the world.
Normal S4 is not waterproof either... the S4 active has inferior specs...

You surely didn't expect it to be waterproof did you? Did you buy the phone blindly without knowing the spec, as if you wanted it to be fully waterproof then why did you buy it?
You need to ask, do you really absolutely have to use it in the rain?

Its not like I am going to use it in FACT in rain. Just generally what if it happens that I talk and bang rain starts and I i am in critical call, few seconds of Rain will finish the phone?
I've gotten some drops on my phone during the rain. Obviously if I need to use it I shield it and try to keep it safe but I've never had any problems with rain damaging any of my devices. I'm just careful, and if it gets some drops on it, I wipe them off.
I don't think the G2 is any better or worse than anything else out there (not including waterproof devices.)

Ahhh, well, no, a few drops of rain aren't going to do anything. Unless they happen to fall right into an open port or something, but that is unlikely. As ling as it isn't torrential rain for a long period beating onto the phone you should be ok.
I've had a few drops of rain get on mine, like most people. No problem caused.

Ok need find a good case as I dont want loose 950USD device due to some accident....
Hi there, since yesterday was my birthday, I decided to get a QX-10 as a gift: I was perplexed at first, but now that Sony decided to give us a proper case/adapter, I went for it.
But, the only news I can find is the one saying that it was announced.
Has anybody any guess on when it will be available?
Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
Supposedly end of Jan but don't quote me on it. Only announced for Hong Kong so will have to be an ebay jobbie.
I am looking around as well.

Well, I actually ordered the QX10 just because they announced this case, they better release it in Europe and US too... but hey, I may import it as long as it costs more or less the same...
20/30 euros are fine, 50/60 are NOT.
Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
My QX10 is finally here, and I'm impressed with the overall quality.
But, there is no freaking way of attaching it on the Ultra.
I'm thinking now of getting some double sided tape on a case and attach the included adapter to it and see if it actually works...
I don't want to get a Z case just to cut the edges off (also because my wife has a Z, so it would be handy anyway)...

I waited to unlock the bootloader just for a thing like this, and now I'm so getting used to stock and am so comfy with it that the sole thought of zeroing all the data to begin from scratch is making me shiver.

Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
Little update: sick of waiting on Sony to give us a proper release date (they never do), I decided to get my just replaced case, the original clip and some adhesive strips i had lying around.
I simply attached two of them on the clip, attached the clip onto the case, and that's it, solved once and for all.
Every single strip can hold up to 2 kilograms, so I think 4 kilos will be enough for the lens...
And as a bonus they are detachable (you have to rotate applying a certain amount of force, or better yet going under it with a sharp object or a credit card etc), so they won't ruin the original clip.
Now when a colleague or a friend asks to try it I'll reply... go get yourself one, you cheap bastard!

Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
Most of you know me, or have seen me around.... so are probably aware of my, 8 week cold turkey stint without my Ultra.
Reason being: There was a small repair needed.
... However today I took my family on a small tramp, in the sun, to a water hole for a swim..
I was taking some picture with my Ultra, and the screen started flickering... so i powered it off and then back on... 'black screen'
Everything was still working, but black screen. (obviously can't see anything) Went to do a hard power off, by holding the red button, and hmmm whats that. the white humidity paper is red. **crap!** the lens on both the front and back have fog all over them. No I've never even taken my device underwater, it may have received a few splash's today, but caps are always closed... and they were today.
conclusion:
The last repair was completed, and the device was not sealed properly...
So... awaiting a response to my rather lengthy email... (very polite) and will see what the company say whom i bought it from.
They are based in Hong Kong, and it cost me $120 NZD to send it there and back... (I had to pay both freight costs)
SO.... there you go. fricken awesome! My device is dead again!
Oh god no.. I don't know what to say. The typical thing now is that you'll ship it away (again) and we'll receive 4.4 the day after. Just watch it happen.
hey lord I send you a private message. nothing important but. i'm going off topic but can you tell me or any body knows how to make the screen home page larger or to expend once the DPI has downsize to 280 DPI
In the imortial words of Toyta: Bugger
Oh man that sucks. Maybe you could buy a new one and when this one finished, you just have to sell it?

I've used it in the rain, before I had the initial repair. worked fine, the humidity paper was still white. BUt the last repair company was complete rubbish. Was not my call as it was shipped to Hong Kong (where i purchased it) and they had it repaired.
So if your device is new, and not been opened then you're safe.

This is a little concerning if I am honest, the 4K video heat thing is a bit obvious though and you should only be taking short videos with it.
Definitely going to be waiting a little while to see how the launch in the uk goes before deciding what I get

I also do not see it as a problem but as normal, since 4K requires more processing power!
Yup its true... I think this problem is in international set. Taiwan uses another model.

I believe that in the next batch already fix the problem!
Are having problems with Dead or stuck pixel?

if that is true, I guess the question is if the next batch is what is currently being shipped around the world? Has the whole of that first batch already gone out to customers???

Hmm no such problems.
I've gotten two Z1 Compact and both had the gap. One more than other.
I don't know if it is relatively normal or simply a not so good construction by Sony.
Has it been confirmed that the gap compromises the waterproof qualities of the phone or is it just sloppy construction??

I guess it's the construction. But I didn't pay my money for sloppy QC.. My front camera alignment is way off. The hole is nearly touching the glass edge

Mean that these problems are only in units of Taiwan?

Read and understand first before writing something. The phones with problems from Singapore.

Mine have the gap too.
White unit from Taiwan.
Actully, don`t care about the gaps, it`s just not quite exactly glued the glass, need to rotate counterclockwise just a little bit
Much more concerned about single speaker plaiyng when incoming calls
This is a fail of the fails!
This is a little worrying. But as with all new devices, there's release bugs.
Ordering my Z2 (Purple with any luck) in a couple of weeks when we have them available here in Australia. Hopefully the batches coming to us are a little more refined. The single speaker on calls should be a simple software update I would imagine. Same for 4K recording overheating, but hell, the power of such a small camera in a thin device, can't expect to record much more than a few minutes regardless.
