Yes, it can be completely submerged into water (up to 1 metre and up to 30 minutes).

Ignore the one who went back to Note 2. He has been modding his phone and encountering problems and then blame it on the phone rather than his "skills" or the mods.

For the one who's on his 3rd set, I believe he dropped his phone before (search his posts).

A lot of us have been using the Xperia Z since its launch, and have no issues whatsoever.

You can check this out for camera comparison between Note 2 and Xperia Z:

Nice. Maybe should get this phone and be different from the hordes of iphone and samsung users

For NFC to work, you need a NFC SIM card. I got mine from Singtel (FOC). Just walked into Singtel shop and asked for it. Got it in less than 15 mins.

The Ezlink feature does not work (yet) for public transport.

Problem now is not many shops support payment using NFC methods, so usage is limited.

Besides payment, you can also use NFC tags together with your phone. See some examples here.

yr welcome.

Anyone is using the default Email app & has issues with it after latest update in XZ?

Mine was running fine until after yesterday's OTA update.

Seems that it is unable to download and install my email server's security certificates/SSL/et cetera..

****s man... cant work on the go...

tried all I could, bt found something is lacking, certainly nt my company IT side..

Hi, may you advice how & where to disable the security feature please?

TIA.

Solution found!

after screening thru google for relevant answers, found something, applied & viola..

after keying in the necessities info when creating an Email/Exchange account, let it "Waiting to be sync", go to:
Settings > Accounts > Exchange ActiveSync(it shld be there once you activate it), check Sync Email box > (still on same page, top right small column 3 dots button) Sync now

Also, do ensure that:
Settings > Data usage > (top right small column 3 dots button) check Auto-sync data box

Thereafter, wait a couple of mins, app shows & press "Activate" as device administrators.

Done!

BUT..... no more quick settings from lock screen.
Screen Display can no longer select 30mins, max 10mins...
