very professional and informative.

Thanks for sharing, yes it is a great and beautiful phone though with some bugs, the most annoying one is the upload of pictures to FB directly when they all become horizontal

Ahh yes quite irritating! I get around that by using iLoader or FriendCaster to upload to Facebook .

Wow guys, thank you so much for your comments, I'm glad you liked it .

I'm still on xps... I usually wear jeans and carry the phone on my pocket. How is xpz from pocket size viewpoint?

A really common question with today's flagships getting bigger and bigger with every generation. In all honesty i can fit a Galaxy Note 2 in my jeans pocket quite comfortably and i wear skinny fit! Sony have done an amazing job reducing the bevel on the Z as well as making the whole phone super slim, it would fit easily into any pocket, jeans or otherwise.

I am glad to see this kind of review and from some one who own the XZ! Most of reviews out there are from testers, who had phone for like 2, maybe 3 days. I shared your review on Slovenian android forum also

Also had my SXZ for one week now. I think it's really awesome. Some bugs at Google search, but it got fixed after the last phone update.

The Facebook picture rotation got better by the time. Just need to upload when watching the picture instead of going into face first. But I see when I upload it loses the BE2 effects, any tips on that one?

Batteri lifetime is much better than iPhone tho.

I picked the Xperia Z out instead of S4 because of the water resistance. Rather water resistance than a phone that can see where I see.

Yeah i always find it difficult to find a decent review for any phone, as you say, most of them are from testers, and its not their own phone that they use all day every day.

Thank you, Im glad you liked my attempt at a review, and liked it enough to share it on another forum . I wasnt sure what reaction i would get or even if it was any good but posted it here to get some feedback and im really happy the feedback has been so great .

Good review agree with you on most things but tbh I can't notice any lag. They should improve the speaker though.

And it would be nice if you could change the application drawer in some way.

It might well be that I have quite a few widgets and folders, but seeing that Apex never lags with exactly the same layout, there must be an issue somewhere but as always, every body's experience will differ.

my gripe is every pic on whatsapp shows up in gallery of the phone

Hi,

Can you run the sony widgets in other launchers?

i also enjoy the xperia z quite a bit.

i am a USA user, & the phone does quite well, although without 4g capabilities.

i was previously using a lumia 920. & this phone is much more of a beauty, & elegant than the 920.

i will have to admit that the 920 did take superior photographs in night time situations, eg: night club photographs, out @ night photographs with friends. etc.

i look forward to many more sony flagship handsets.
