With headphones plenty loud enough. The speaker on the phone is loud enough four notifications and YouTube videos. But it's only one speaker. If you meant headphones you will have no problem.

Does your C6603 Model support both 3G (Hspa+) and 4G (LTE)? can you verify this for me please? Also how long does your battery life last?!

Of course the C6603 supports both HSPA+ and LTE. It supports GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSPDA, HSUPA, HSPA, HSPA+ and LTE.
Wow! amazing! My initial doubts were aroused due to Gsmarena which states that there are two models of the xperia Z
" Sony Xperia C6603, Sony Xperia C6602, Sony Xperia Z LTE, Sony Xperia Z HSPA+." so i thought that one model would have LTE and the other would not, and how long does your battery last in a day?

Check out the video.
Lower benchmark score than the Galaxy S3 and battery drops from 97% to 93% in 5 minutes of use.

Not impressed Sony.
Benchmarks, are you serious?
Benchmarks mean nothing. Rating a phone over benchmarks is stupid.

If you really think the S3 is better then so be it.
Don't come onto device forums saying about how that device 'a screw-up', in my opinion the S3 is a huge fail on Samsung's behalf.
'Not impressed Samsung.'

What they screwed up is non-removable battery... i really dont feel confortablr with phones that dont offer an easy battery replacement, no matter how amazing they might be. Stamina or not, sony or not, batteries do not hold their capacity after 6-8 months...

Waterproof + 6.9mm thick phone = sealed battery.

You may don't want that but waterproof with removable battery is impossible.

Agreed. And I'll be hiding the on screen buttons completely, and using gestures instead, meaning that I get the complete 5" !!

Very glad Sony did this, was waiting for someone to stop making redundant buttons.

Now if only they actually gave it a removable battery, then I'd be sold 100% (mostly talking about the ZL, I can understand the Z)
I have been searching everywere for this feature, but couldn't find a demo or even a screenshot for hiding the onscreen buttons and using gestures instead.

R u sure this can be done? This would be a big plus for me...

Only after root and after someone manages to remove the on screen buttons, and they can be replaced with gestures such as Pie gestures!
