Chief decided to use dynaflo's liquid armour instead of traditional screen protector cause of the curve which results in bubbles

Just got an OTA system update notification for version 34.1.A.3.22. Anyone got it and updated? Couldn't find any related changelog online.

Some updates after using it for 20 hours including a 3hr run with it using a running app.

Initially I felt the power button is more sunk-in and tougher to press. I've more or less gotten used to it and also found out the fingerprint scanning is much more responsive than Z5C. The rounder side edges also give the entire body a more slender feel. Maybe also because it is slightly 'taller'. The GPS performance is on par with Z5C, the speaker though is inferior. Volume is lower, and at full volume, some frequencies will have 'breaking' effect. Not a deal breaker for me.

Anyway, am very satisfied so far, the SD650 is doing a fine job, the camera is much more responsive and next will be getting a better feel of the battery life.

Definitely better than what I've experienced with Z5C. For the past week plus, after usage from 7am to about 11pm, the remaining battery level averaged about 20-30%. On-screen time will be around 3hrs or more. I am mostly on 4G during this period with GPS, Google Fit, Lifelog, Google Now fully on.

Want to upgrade from my Z3 Compact, notice this thread nobody talk about Telco bringing this handset in.

Does anyone know if local telco will do so? XZ already on their shelves when I went to see.

Am quite sure the telcos won't sell this. My recommendation is to sign-up/re-contract your line with an iPhone 7, sell it to fund your X Compact.

If you put the phone in airplane mode and removed the SIM card, does the phone auto reboot ?

Why would you want to remove sim card? Don't think u will do it often anyway. Also, the sim and sd card tray are combined, could be that I remove it without unmounting.

It's not a matter of "frequency", the phone shouldn't have to reboot just because of sim card change. And based on past reviews I've read, last gen Xperia are also like this.

None of recent phones I owned had this behaviour. For those cases where I removed without dismount sd card, it merely prompted warning msg telling me it might lead to data loss.
