If you go down that line of thinking you will be forever waiting and never buying.

Hey guys,
Just wondering when do you guys think is the best time to sell your s3 before upgrading to Galaxy S4.
So that you don't lose too much value of your handset before the next model is announced

honestly this phone is pretty decent. i guess if you are the like of those who are always on latest then you can sell it when the S4 is announced. if you sell it before that no one may buy coz of high value. but when the next comes the price will drop and some people will get interested about it. for me as i said its pretty decent and i think i won't sell it for another 5 yrs before i change phone again.
Only thing this phone is lacking, imho is the 2gb ram.
I reckon the best time will be when you are ready to buy the S4
Seriously...what kind of a question is that?
To late price has dropped now if you look around for new phone .

In the summer, I got my wife an Xperia U for £10/Month T-Mobile contract, she is overjoyed with the phone, it's so much better than the other crap that's at this pricepoint (HTC Desire C, Samsung Y). The Xperia U has a front facing camera and dual-core and a good camera and screen (for the price), along with the funky design.
Anyway my mothers contract was up last week, and tried to bag another one. No such luck, T-Mobile said they didn't do it anymore (only Tipo, which is similar to DesireC).
Anyway, phoned the local EE store, and they had a look in the store-room, and came out with a Xperia-U on T-Mobile, and the best bit, no £50 pay needed. If you are after one, it's worth phoning the store, they do have them
LOL, T-Mobile lost out on the £50 we were prepared to pay.....
Hey guys, I work in Virgin media and have phones4u next door.
I was speaking to someone and they said its on sale at the minute because its being discontinued. Apparently people come back saying all the xperia line are terrible. I've had nothing but good news from the people who buy the ones we sell.
But yes, they are cheap at the moment. Around £300 for unlocked. Or £27.99 on contract.
I find it hard that its so bad Sony are discontinuing one of there phones, maybe they will unveil a new ultra?
This also means no more support. I reckon an update for 4.4.3 will come out. Maybe 1 extra update after that and I'll be dead
What a shame.

No it won't be discontinued that fast. the fact that GPe version exists and that in Japan, there are additional version of Z Ultras that just have been announced 2-3 months ago, should not end this mighty of a phone that quick. But if we're talking for the next Z2 Ultra might be pushed early, that should be the reason.
In the mean time, Sony should stick with 18 month of policy for at least their Z branded Xperias. heck even the original Xperia Z might taste KitKat after all, which for the Z Ultra should be updated at least until the end of year 2014.
Glad i got one when i did then. loved every minute of ownership and dont see that changing anytime soon.

I highly doubt that Sony is discontinuing it. It's more plausible that Phones4U is getting rid of it, and therefore having the sale. They are probably waiting for the Z2 Ultra.

Perhaps, I wouldn't of thought Sony would make another Ultra, it doesn't seem to have sold well at all, and you can make the phone any bigger without it being a tablet, and you couldn't make it smaller because what's the point.
It seems phones4u and EE are not doing it anymore, haven't checked other carries

I'm sure there will be another version, just look at the large phones in Asia.
I probably wont be getting the Z2 Ultra - cant see the point in upgrading every year, lets see what the Z3 ultra brings to the table:laugh:
Hi guys, I am very much looking forward to sell my HTC One and get an Xperia Z2. I was just waiting till the price of the xperia z2 drops a little bit more. Right now on ebay and amazon is about $500.
Based on your experience with previous phones, Do you guys think it will drop even more once the z3 gets actually released in the U.S? :fingers-crossed:
Thanks :highfive:

i somehow really feel bad i bought mine at sony store because its on "SALE" for about 579 and thinking it was already cheap and yeah its more cheaper at amazon but it says No Warranty. i don't think it will get any price drop since sony store started to put Z2 on Sale

Yeah i got pretty excited when i saw SALE on the sony site so i grabbed one instead of Galaxy S5 well still i think sony z2 is a better deal than S5 but yeah i could save 79 bucks from amazon eitherway im happy with my Z2 and based on readin z2 and z3 have minimal difference so on topic starter you can buy Z2 to save more but i dont think it will get price drop it was only released this year
378 4g here in Greece. 411 for S5

Of course it will, and the longer you wait the greater the price drop, look at the price of the Z1 now!
it will surely drop wait sometime
The z2 will be discontinued/no longer offered?
I have 2 (first one got a cracked screen, which sony will be replacing and i will be selling it).
The second one ive had no issues with but i have a carrier insurance (150 deductible) that allows me to get it replaced if its broken, stolen, etc..
My buddy used his warranty on his z1 shortly after z2 came out and they gave him the z2 in replacement.
Imo for 150 it seems like a good upgrade? Think theyll stop selling z2 soon?
18 months after release unless the device shows popularity then 24 months
Its been 6/7 months from release

Are you planning to get your phone stollen at some point? Don't let your insurance company know about it... just joking.
I don't believe Z2 will be discontunued soon, as I've just read that Sony is gonna change their six month flagship ship launch, starting with the z4 probably during Q1 of 2015...
