I cracked my screen while in my pocket. I actually dis assembled my phone today and was surprised by the build. The phones frame is actually poly carbonite plastic with aluminum trim added to the sides. The top and bottom trim is also poly carbonite I'm guessing for the anttenna signal. I'm gonna make a post of my phone disassembly. But the main reason for screen cracking is cause the phone is so big and so thin. The screen glass looks to only be 1- 1.5mm thick so when it flex the glass cracks. I feel they should have made the phone thicker simular to the z1 with the 20.7mp camera with a thicker battery. I would have replaced this phone with the lumia phablet if it didn't have windows on it. Windows phone is a definite no go. Anyway I strongly recommend a case that adds rigidity to the phone like the aluminum bumper case. Anyway photos attached.

Back cover is the easy part. Just use a heat gun and a plastic trim tool or plastic razor. The hard part is figuring the order of disassembly. I would have sent it back to Sony but they couldn't give me a price on how much it would cost. I also felt that added to the total cost of the phone I paid especially since I paid full pop.. And I also thought about how mad I would be if it cracked again after sending it in for repair. So im going to order a new screen assembly and see if I can fix it myself. I do work on cars for a living so a phone "should" be easy...lol. If I cant then I'll either buy another z ultra or similar phone. Not the note 3 though cause I hate touch wiz and its not big enough. I have my eye on the HP 7" tablet that suppose to have calling features as well. I may end up getting the new asus padphone.
I note that it is only a 3000mAh battery not 3050?
Here is a video from YouTube and explains how to disassemble a Sony Xperia Z...
What the hell, aren't we supposed to have a 3050 mah battery ??

Got my new Xperia S today, and so far loving it.
What are other owners finding the build quality like?
Might seems reasonable, the only niggle I have is the rear battery cover. The top edge is sitting slightly proud, in the centre above the camera lens hole, but it is all flush around all the other 3 sides (and it is correctly fitted in place). Its not massive but noticeable.
This leads to a creaking when you hold the rear. Worried it might get worse over time.
Anyone else's like mine, or are your's flush at the top?

Same here, tiny little bit, just doesn't sit as nice as the other sides. Also noticed the black scuffs really easily.
Build quality is excellent..........feels good to hold it..........
My only complaint is the flaps for the USB and hdmi port.
It takes real pain to close them once they are opened.

When I took the phone out of the box, it was like... holding some kind of expensive new technology. I was thinking myself: "Don't you f...ing drop it".
Coming from a iPhone its slightly disappointing. If the htc one s was out I think I would have gone for that instead knowing the camera would be not as good. The htc is also quite alot slimmer.
I guess the xps has the spec and the htc the look in my opinion.
Sendt fra min LT26i med Tapatalk
I personally don't understand the apparent desire for slimmer phones, I've had the HD2 for the last two years and I upgraded to the sensation xe very briefly before I returned it to order the xperia s.
The sensation always felt like it was going to fall out of my hand,I was gripping onto it for dear life lol.
In all of the two years I had my HD2 I never dropped it once or felt like I was going to drop it, and even though I've only held onto a dummy xperia, that also feels comfortable in the hand, so for me it's the xperia build any day.
Still each to their own

I agree entirely.To me, a phone should feel like a phone, not a piece of paper or a heavy credit card. I'm a butterfingers when it comes to phones, and if i drop it, I don't want it to snap in half.
My X10, which isn't a small phone, dropped a few times (give or take 10 or so), and lived, working perfectly. The Xperia S is a light phone for its size, but I love the size of it, and it works perfect with the size of my hands. It...feels like a phone should feel I guess. It may not be as durable as my X10, but it feels and looks perfect to me.
I'm a big sucker for the look and feel of a phone and tend to pick aesthetics over the actual specs. This phone has both for me
The only negative I have is indeed the port covers, but even then, I think it's something that I can adjust to over time.
But back on the phone size thing, it's not the size, it's how you use it!
I'm hearing some creeking underneath the the transparent bar. The Xperia black plastic. Hope it will last

Plastic is lighter and more durable than glass. iPhones have always had their build quality issues as well dont dont give me that. If you drop a plastic phone with a shatter proof screen protector, chances are it wont break. Drop an iphone from a metre and it shatters into a million pieces. Front AND back. Youre right. Nothing subjective about that.

I'm still waiting for my pre-ordered Xperia S and using my iPhone 4S. I guess I'm very careful with my gadgets but so far I have owned three iPhones (3G, 4, currently 4S) and all of them were kept mint through their life (without case, only using carrying pouch or in the pocket), my old 3G survived a couple of falls with just small marks on the silver bezel and the 4 survived its only fall without not even a mark or scar (granted it was like 2 feet).
Have you ever owned an iPhone? Even though one assume glass can break "more easily" I can tell you that unless you drop it more than 4-5 feet or you're unlucky (as with any phone) Gorilla Glass could probably withstand the fall with barely scuffs.
And what's better is that this Gorilla Glass won't easily scratch with daily use as many shiny plastics phones I've used (Samsung Galaxy S, Nexus S, Arc, etc.). One of the reason I'm sold on Xperia S is the matte plastics than I'm hoping feel more premium than others, and hopefully it won't disappoint me. I can tell you, apart from the iPhone the only other phone I liked its build quality was the HTC Nexus One, I loved how it felt in the hand! as much as I hated the Pentile screen...
Fallen from my table this morning, straight on the marble, approx 1 meter.
Everything works ok, no screen cracks.
Just a very minor scuff on a top right corner. Just polished a little bit with some tootpaste, now is barely visible.
Will go the hobby store tomorrow to buy some black finish paint, and should back like new
if the screen is ok then of course everything will work fine
if it landed on anyhwere other than the screen(for this phone, also the glass back side), the most youll get is a scratch,,, same for any phone

Au contraire mon frère. Have you seen Android Authority's Z1 drop test on YouTube? The Z1 uses the same DragonTrail glass as the Ultra, and even after three drops or so (on concrete), the glass didn't crack at all, but the screen stopped working.

My z1 have dropped a lot of times and in all direction, screen protector and case mate cover, it's like out of the box! I think is very durable, my SGS2 had a broken plastic with cover applied and used like a baby. Now i've bought z ultra , look well made but is very thin! Someone had problem with dropping even cover applied?
I too, like to live dangerously. Lol. Yea, even the thinnest TPU case makes this thing a little unwieldy. I use a skinomi skin on the front and back. I had the pieces around the edges but they only attracted hair and lint from my pocket and got stuck in the dock so i removed them. The Accidental damage plan from Sony is the only protection i've really got, so until i destroy this one and have it replaced i will likely not be using a case. I also notice i'm much more clumsy with a case than without.
I've bounced mine off concrete 3 times now, the last fall broke the corner on the ridged flip case.

WHY would we need to drop test a mobile phone? This is becoming a social norm to see such 'tests'. I have to ponder who needs to be informed that if they drop such an item the chances are its going to break. If we think about these 'drop tests' they are absolutely absurd!

Agreed. Drop tests are stupid since no drop is the same. It can probably survive a 5 meter drop just fine, but that's just pure luck and nothing else. Drop it again and it'll break.

What a waste of a Z Ultra. Seeing the photo hurt me.
The back of the glass has a powder coat that gives it its black shine, I simply went over it with a Stanley blade for 30 minutes and it came off a piece of cake
The only thing keeping the phone waterproof is some adhesive tape that you'll find holding down any phone display which was a shock to see something so basic to keep the water out.
I only Tried it because I've got an Expensive vinyl gold carbon fibre film coming and a glass screen protector in the post tomorrow so if it did go wrong id be covering it up anyway. its a shame there's no motherboard to look at though just a big ass battery
not digging it... but congrats?

I'm glad your happy with it's uniqueness but to my eyes it has completely ruined the aesthetic appeal of the device. Like it looks homemade and not in a good way.
So here is the Aluminium bumper from Devilcase (the plain aluminium version) which has not been sand-blasted and so it retains the natural luster of metallic aluminium
This is by far the most decent looking bumper I've seen for our z5p, what do you guys think? :fingers-crossed:
awesome!! same with mine.. my only prob with my z5p now is the fingerprint smudges hahaha, i'm still looking for an oleophobic coating..

Yo how is playing games with that????? Becausr the corners come huge on both ends. It looks like a problem when playing a landscape game.

But i really need that because the phone bends so easy .. If i walk 200 meters its bent (and i dont even have tight jeans or anything..) yeah so i still might order it or something hopefully i get it. (If you can play with it)

Is that the Wellpad or the ZLEDCO case and how does the build quality feel for that case. Thanks
After researching, I found this bumper as all ALU bumpers is killing the signal reception. Also many users report it is too bendable at the power buton area.
It is perfectly looking bumper by my opinion, but for these money with these problems I'll pass.
(If they can do the same shape using some semi-bendable plastic or hard rubber will be the perfect choice for me).
Just sharing the results of my research.
Are you saying the devilcase bends near the power button or the metal frame of the phone bending? I have a z5 premium dualsim and the devilcase. It is very rigid and I see no reason why my phone would ever bend. Also about cell reception, it can affect signal quality but mostly if you have weak signal to begin with. I haven't noticed degradation on my device and I have both tmobile and att on this dualsim phone.
Actually, I am sharing about the bumper which seems is bending. Sony Z5 Premium Devil case review In this case even cracked the back glass.
My signal is perfect, except in the garage, where I need all of it to stay in service. Not to mention the regular Mall's visits and other places in the city where you'll be unreachable.
But at the end this is only my opinion, and it is based on reviews only.
This thing makes a huge phone even bigger. Why would you do that??
I'm still looking but only have tempered glass or glass or gorilla glass protectors. Can anyone locate the plastic film types of protectors?
I've had screen protectors in the past as this is enough to stop key scratches and small drops.

Did you try ask Dbrand? They don't have Xperia 5 in the lineup, up to zx3, but I'm almost sure, they'll do you one if you ask.
And I guess even if they won't, you got nothing to loose by trying mailing them. :good:
Unfortunately I don't think this phone has anywhere near the user base for dbrand to produce for it. They're a Canadian company and Sony doesn't offer any phones there currently, and they barely sell any phones in the US.

Thought it was worth a try. ?
Maybe ES then? EasySkinz? You cant know, unless you ask?
Dbrand is to me known, for making skins to whatever, if they get the job. I could be misunderstanding though.
Otherwise. You could just buy some quality m3, and do one your self? With a scalpel and heat? You'll have some try and error in a single sheet. Can't see it should be that hard really. (Just a brainstorm idea, I wouldn't be scared to try, and in what ever color or pattern you wish?) Win win imo. You just need to do the measurements and cutting your self. See it as a fun challenge! And make some custom sh!t! I'd love to try actually, but I'm using a case, and I don't have any m3 laying around. And nothing to use the rest of a sheet for so seems brainless for me to go out buy. When never gonna be visible. But I'd encourage you to try, why not?
:good:
Lastly. If not in mood to try your self. Go down to a car wrapper, with a box of beer 30min before closing. They'll wrapp this no time. I suppose.

:good:
Lastly. If not in mood to try your self. Go down to a car wrapper, with a box of beer 30min before closing. They'll wrapp this no time. I suppose.
:laugh: :victory:
That's a wrap. Lol
Guess I got nothing but bad ideas. Sorry. :laugh:

BTW, Dbrand got back to me and confirmed there is no plan to add this to their portfolio due to low demand. Very reasonable.

Oh I see mate. Was worth a shot. Then do one ya self, is the option I guess. Or some pro wrapper if not up for the task.
Does anyone know a good silicone protector/case for the xperia 5?

I have used these protectors on other devices for years

They wasn't available so I requested them and the following day they we're released. Not tried it yet on the Xperia 5 but will do when these cheap ones are removed.
Previous experience is the ease of application and can even use water to help fit them properly.
