Farewell to my Xperia Z

[ianrobbie]

Guys, sorry for posting a thread like this but I don't feel the Devs get enough praise on here.
I take delivery of my Z2 today and leave my Xperia Z behind. As a result, I am jumping ship to the Z2 forums.
Before I go, I want to thank the Devs, in particular (but in no particular order) Monx, Niaboc79, Pandemic and Rajeev. Throughout my time as an Xperia Z owner, I have used all of your ROMs and have consistently been amazed by the talent and willingness to help the n00bs and experienced flashers alike. You guys get nowhere near the credit you deserve for all of the work you put in. Where you should be getting thanks and praise, I've found a lot of the time, you get whiny people who seem intent on just complaining because their precious device isn't working exactly as they want it to.
They take the risk when they flash and they must accept the consequences. How you guys put up with that is beyond me.
Anyway, time to get off my soap box.
Just wanted to say "Thank You" to the Devs and all of the other users who have chipped in with answers to my problems.
Hopefully see you over on the Z2 forum!

Great great!! I'm not in the list but thank you for the nice words. They deserve those good words!
And... Enjoy your Z2 and you'll find those devs in the Z2 forum too!

We're not shortlisted! xD But, U're right, they deserve it!

Apologies for anyone I didn't name check. I didn't try everyone's ROM but the fact is XDA is littered with amazingly talented Devs who all give their spare time and resources to help us make the best of our phones.
Every single one of you deserves much more credit than is given, even if it means just clicking thanks on the OP.

On behalf of all of the n00bs and experienced flashers, Thank You!

@androidfreak70, I just broke my digitizer and thinking of buying z2 too. Can you share your experience with your z2. Thanks.

Haha! I don't own a Z2 yet.

I've had mine for a few days now. Still have a locked Bootloader but is freshly rooted and running @niaboc79's ROM. My phone is flying!
I love my Z2. The menu is smooth, responsive and snappy. The camera quality is great and the sound from the dual speakers really makes you realize how puny the Xperia Z's speaker is.
The styling is fantastic, with it still feeling like a quality piece of kit (I tried the Z3 and it felt a bit slippy to me), the screen is as good as it's ever been on Sony phones.
But the best thing is, in my opinion, it's starting to feel like my old phone. Sounds like a strange thing to say, but I hate moving brands because nothing is ever where it was before and it takes ages to get used to a new UI (my wife recently got a Galaxy S5, which renewed my loathing for Touchwiz). I changed my launcher from Nova to Action Launcher but that's about it.

In short, fantastic phone. If you can, take the plunge and get a Z2. The Z3 is effectively the same phone with a slightly faster and more power efficient CPU. But to me it doesn't justify the extra expense.

EDIT - Ooops! Wrong quote!
