the picture from before which showed it not very straight. both me and my brother got z5 all 3model we got all have the same issueissue.

 

[amazingone]

depends your needs.
are you a phone chaser who want the newest and latest or just want a good high end phone?

if not going for camera, is the Z3+ a better buy than Z5?

For the record in Sony phones, with the same display size it will be Z3 and follow by Z2.

used a z2 before. the battery life is superb!

can say that.

but it seems that heating issue is apparent on Z5 too, even with its dual heat pipe design.

can say that.

nice to know, not so anal on camera specs so if it's acceptable then I'm rather okay with it.

tbh if it's that "bad" with the z5 (which thus far it isn't tbh) what more a louya cooling solution ?

I think so bah... we'll see. my brother made an interesting observation, that it curves at the power button /fingerprint Reader.

Well, it so happens that most of the Sony phones owners are very particular about the physical appearances of the phone, that they might do a microscopic inspection for every inch and corners.

Anyway, I simply pull a case over my S5 since I think the phone case looks better compared to some using their Sony phones naked or with phone underwear.

Not to mention the later batches could have price drop, patience saves you some cash after all.

But not always like this. When i recontract and getting z2, actually it is better to wait for a week for z3 to arrive....

Could the heat reported be because of the dual heatpipes taking the heat away from the concentrated area of the CPU to a larger area of the phone to dissipate? On that note, I'm wondering whether the hot S810 CPU still throttles excessively under sustained load in the Z5... any ideas?

I am still skeptical about the heat issues that some users are talking about. Apparently some reviews are saying there are no heat issues, only occasional heat ups during intense usage like gaming and installation of a number of apps while the others do not agree.

I will reserve my comments when more reviews are out.

I think you are waiting for too long then.... ?

How's the fingerprint unlock? Fast and responsive? Also I hear u need to actually press the power button in order to activate it.

How long is the battery? Can last one day under heavy use at least?

Yeah. Initially I thought the sensor will help wake the phone, end up only help unlock the phone -____-

In the end still have to manually wake the phone up...
