If you are already using a galaxy S6 i really do not see why you should dump it and get a Z5.

Yup, but don't think it is necessary to have pre-order purchase. U can always get your phone very fast as no queue.

Got it on the 1st day lunch time for few times, most of the times, the queue is waiting for me to form it.

Unlike ifruity/Samseng....queue nite or even risk their life to get it.

heh, i was hopping to have some telco pre-order promo, as my line can be recontracting soon (2nd week of Oct)

Mobile phone most of the times got freebies, unlike tablet, no freebies at all.

For non-contract free desktop charger, and tempered glass (if u redeem using xperia lounge).

Frankly not really but looking at the supposedly good quality digital zoom highly emphasized on the z5...turn out quality not very good leh from that video

Hmm actually all along I love Z series waterproof capabilities (for my runs outdoor and not to worry when it rains) but the camera snapping all along super slow until I saw the z5 auto focus and snapping speed so I supposed it is "on par" with the s6 so hands itchy le hehe

u mean to say Sony's new 0.03secs auto focus is on par with s6?

I went to preview & tried the digital zoom. Really improved over my Z3

I prefer comparing with more outdoors photos instead. I need to look at results like the dynamic range and noise handling, color saturation and photo sharpness, etc.

The latest shootout between, IP6s, G4 and S6 is interesting. I hope Z5 camera can perform on par with S6.

Me too, need the water-resistant feature because of my outdoors activities. Really do not want to cover it in thick casing.

I was really hoping the camera output quality would just solve that one oversharpening issue.

Been getting disappointed from false hope since Z1 when XDA people kept saying that a software update will solve it but it kept on appearing in Z2 then Z3 and now Z5.

Hopefully there are more mobile photography enthusiasts making noise so that Sony will take notice and put in a few more software developers to solve that issue.

I'm still looking for a sliver of official news in the next 1 month to see what they are going to do about it.

Nevermind about water colour or over sharpening thingy la
There are so many good things about Z5 already

Experience tells me that sooner or later, the phone will drop somehow.
So it's still better to get a casing lol.

The snapping speed also improved but I find it still slightly slower than other flagship S.. Sigh
