the dot/full stop isn't hidden. If reviewers took time to look through settings you'll find that there's a keyboard layout option to include the dot on the main screen. Also this keyboard as one of the best swype features I've ever used. The swype is very accurate and intuitive. Also a number of reviewers question the position of the built in speaker, lower right side. If you're right handed then you'll probably have the phone in the left hand, using the right hand to operate the phone.
I want this phone, but my cellphone provider doesnt have it, I've had the same cell for like....5 years, it's a blackberry and it's pretty much destroyed.
I just got my xperia Z yesterday. Loving it ;) I used to think apple was the best mobile manufactures , but since I got introduced to andriod and sony , I immediately got hooked to andriod and sony SONY XPERIA FTW!
If you set the Samsung Galaxy SIII to "Natural" screen setting the image quality and colour saturation is perfectly natural. I agree however that unless you do go into the menu and do this the Amoled screen on the Samsung will show colours with much too much saturation. It's just a setting in the menu and the pics on the Samsung are normal.
I just can't believe you said the camera was disappointing, one of Sony's major expertise is the camera and it was the major feature for the Z in particular as it featured HDR functionality, a first for its kind. You're apparently disappointed by most smartphone cameras. Is it possible you couldn't optimize it?
Ive had this phone for 8 months though specs are dated now compared to recent phones still very reliable, stylish, nothing wrong with it. I'm keeping it till 2015 before buying a better phone haha love it! And can people please start knowing the difference between WaterPROOF and WaterRESISTANT cause there's a pretty big difference :/
no they are saying its physical damage and i have to pay 20,000rs to get it exchange . they said this phone is not repairable and can only be replaced. When i went to service center there were many people with the same issue , cracked screen near the power button. And when checked on the internet there are hundreds of issue. Ony option left i guess is consumer court now.
it was an excellent review for me as it addressed a concern i had. I dont have the Z, I bought the xperia sp lite today....and on using it i thought something was wrong with it. I doubted that the call Quality could have been so poor! I was thinking to return it as i thought mine had a fault. But it seems that the z as well has the same issue. So I'm assuming that it is a general con with these xperias and not an issue wit my particular handset. I really find it displeasing though.
I really like the phone, but my main concern is the battery life. Some people are saying that the battery just lasts for 6 hours others say they make the day easily(both with intensive usage). What do you say about that?
It doesnt matter the NFC (Near Field Communication) dropped, its a sticker and can be peeled off. That just for you to know that the NFC is there. Its for you to connect with the SONY'S Wireless Speaker, Headphones, TV etc.
Hi Christer, it's all about the taste of how you like your phone. I do like this 5"screen display. Everything looks so much better than in a 3.5" screen. And I think one of the reason is that if (an example) I get a 5.5 or 5.9 screen, I don't have to use my tablet, so I can do everything, well, not everything, but most things that I do in my tablet, do it in a phone like this or bigger. At least that's my believe. If you use a 3.5" display smartphone just to make calls, then that size it's OK.
hmm and when you say intensive use are you specifically talking about gaming? web browsing? Apps? talk time? Could you please elaborate more on that? Because I travel daily to Connecticut and back and forth to NJ and NY and I mostly use my current android for twitter and web browsing but the battery runs out pretty fast. I'm using the HTC one X
Got this phone 2 weeks ago, and it is pretty good, however if you consider buying this phone you must be aware that the battery life is terrible it will not take you through more than a hour of flat out usage, even when the phone is charging the battery will still go down if you are using it because it just soaks up so much power. The camera isn't that great either. However the built in Walkman music player produces the best sound quality I have ever heard and you can really tell the difference
it's mainly been browsing and a lot of app downloading. It's currently at 48%. Came off charge 5 hours ago. Had browsing, music and video playing and a couple of app downloads.
Not sure if I'm too late, I would recommend the S4. I personally wouldn't get the Z, but that's just my opinion. I have a nexus 4, I love it, I would recommend that too.
Just want to let people know this is a great phone and you will love it if you get it, but from what i have experienced there is some bugs and glitches in the Software of it...mine has crashed a few times over very little things and also had a blank screen problem which sony have claimed they fixed but i dont think they did unfortunately -_-
You should start doing gaming performance in these reviews. I for one would like to know how a possible new choice of phone performs with the latest games.
I have had this phone. I think it's almost perfect. Slightly on the big side bit features and screen quality (1080p) make up for that. Downfall is the battery life. Even with battery stamina mode on and no apps ruining in the background and having stamina mode on 100% so it's always on. I would say you won't get mote than 6 hours out of the xperia z taking into consideration medium use.
The Bravia engine on the Xperia S is not the same one as on the Xperia Z. Because of the very big screen (5 inch!), the Xperia Z only uses the Bravia Engine 2 for watching stuff in your gallery, because else your battery would be dead in less than half a day.
Looks good but I am dilemma buying it oneside it has got the good looks and you can play videos audio songs connecting to t.v as well this is the only feature I am execited to use it
Yea, I stand corrected about the Samsung phones. I did more research, and yes, like I said, the iphone IOS software is very decent considering older models
I've given it some right welly over the past couple of days so can't be too accurate but I'm feeling it's going to give me around the same as what the HTC One X did so in other words after about 6 hours of intensive use it'll need a charge.
Sony needs to present themselves as a company that provides classy products. When I look at the Xperia Z I see a grand black piano, I see something that looks professional from all angles. If Sony wants to play with the big boys with Apple & Samsung, they must create quality products that gets the word to spread around.
Hows the battery life? These reviews are always almost vague on this issue. The only reason why I like this phone is because of the 13 Mega pixel camera, but I don't want to get this and be dissatisfied with the battery life
Shame Sony hasn't done much with the UI unlike HTC with the new One. The interface looks identical to JB on the Xperia T which I own. One gripe I have with Sony's UI is the small grid size making widget placement very limited. Also, contrast ratio and angle of view on the T is lacking which looks the same on the Z. I think the S4 is going to have to be something special to out do the One with the Xperia Z coming in 3rd place.
Hi! I'm using Sony xperia Z which is great but it has grown increasingly irritating with this zoom in feature that zooms in whenever I tap too fast / too many times, bcos of this it has brought many disadvantages. Is there any way to disable this feature? ( found nth on Google )
what would you recommend between this and lumia 920 ? I'm in a serious dilema , especially because of the different operation systems :( They say 920 sucks on apps hard
Not me. I love the S3 just not the stock launcher. I also have the Xperia T and that doesn't come close in any respect except the overall look. It may look nicer but doesn't feel as good in the hand.
I heard that the picture quality is bad if you look at it from a side angle. Is this true? Is it worth the $600 price? If so, I'll pick it up tomorrow.
obviously, this is more advanced than the s3, but, should i get this phone? I mean, it comes out here in holland end Februari, my subscription allows me to choose a new phone from march till may ( when it expires). I don;t like LG, the sgs4 might be awesome, the iphone 5s maylast to long and it still won't be as good as android what else is there to wait for?
Alot of people judge the phones these days with the quality of the camera. If it sucks this bad like you said, people wont buy this phone. The only thing i like this phone are that its waterproof, dustproof, and that stamina feature for your battery. Other than those, its just a regular android phone with better specs...
When will this be released in the U.S? I was gonna get the HTC DNA (my contract ended a whole ago) but my dad keeps saying that I should wait for this phone. I CAN'T STAND THE WAITING!!!!!!! :p
Hello, As you own this phone could you tell me is the ringer loud ? I was stuck with the HTC Sensation for 2 years and its speaker was so ridiculusly quiet. Thanks
Acctually, the new Samsung 4 isn't as Great as every one expected. It does have a killer processor, 8 core if I'm not misstaken, but there's no need with that processor yet. And whenever the processor is useble, most phones will have the same processor.
when the stamina mode is on, is that able to let the wifi thering function keep working? casue I'm using wifi from the 3Ginternet of phone for my ipad...
I don´t have the budget to this phone, but I want to have a Sony. I Think I am going to buy Sony Xperia V or Xperia SP, which one is the better one of those and why?
woop woop getting it in 3 days!! its exactly the same as experia s apart from bigger ghz and its waterproof, i am so keepingt sony's. had 3 already all experias. love them.
Nice phone.. I'm tempted to get it but the battery really is a let down.. And I don't know if the do a converter for it to my dre beats docking station :/
Good,I just got one and it's my first smartphone after got stuck with the trusty cell not-so-smart phone for 5 years (Sarcasm for that not so smart part but really that's all I need the phone to do just call and receive calls)
If the pictures shown in the video were taken with the phone, I have to say they look fantastic quality. Not sure why you would be disappointed. I have the Xperia S (will upgrade to the Z) and day time pictures are amazing. If anything, I'm a bit disappointed with the night time picture quality of the Xperia S.
I decided to upgrade to the white Xperia Z stylish omni-balance design is so sleek and elegant! Should arrive sometime this week ^^ if I had the budget would have got the best of the best Ultra Z or Honami oh well just will be patient for a new Sony tablet as my next choice of tech piece =)
It's not as thin as the samasung though.... still loving this phone for now..... but can I afford it or do I need to go for the iphone like E V E R Y O N E else
Help me please. I can't decide between the Optimus G and Xperia Z. Xperia Z, despite having high ppi seems to have bad colour reproduction and contrast white optimus g with lower ppi seems to have better quality in terms of colour etc. Also, i dont think a ppi above 300 is very noticeable at normal distances. The internals (CPU,GPU etc) are roughly the same for both so i'm really not sure which to choose. Help??
I LOVE my Xperia Z. For those bitching about battery life - Go install a custom ROM - remove all the bloatware and garbage running in the background massive improvement.
I must say I'm everything BUT dissapointed. the only things I can think off is, that even though I think the phone is easy to handle, for some with smaler hands this won't be as easy. And a second is that the screen, compared to an amoled, looks a bit dull, washed out. However i like the sony screen more because I always tought of amoleds, that the colours were too enhanced to be realistic. other than that, it's fast, nice to look at (again) easier to handle then you might think, and waterproof!
Why don't you make a video sony xperia z vs xperia zl I heard that becouse the display on the zl is different we can view the pictures and videos in a better resolution ( or something like that )than the z and i want to know if thats true
@DavidThompson ohh well.. I had the same problem that's why I switched from Xperia x10 to iPhone 4 in 2010... But now I have the xperia Z and trust me, I have no complaints with this phone. I agree the display doesn't have very good viewing angles but after a while you start loving it ;D
I'm really thinking about getting this phone. Someone mind telling me how durable the front and back glass is. Because i'd be really pissed if it gets cracked during the first week.
i completely agree, to be honest i just want nokia back, it was so much similar back then, when nokia were the market leader - i just hope they can get the OS up to date before they completely crash.
what are you talking about? the "walkman" is part of sonys history/ heritage its nice to see that its still there, dunno what you want? it does the job doesnt it,
Really great, in-depth review. The Sony is a good performer, it does well against the main smartphones which are dominating the market at the moment. We uploaded our own review of the Z on our channel, and was pleasantly surprised with it's performance.
I so wanna buy this phone but I'm afraid of its battery life . I've had many sony phones and they l have week battery and I have moved to the RAZR HD in which I love the battery . How is the battery of the xperia s
Simple question, I don't have this phone because I'm too poor xD, but if for some reason this phone gets stock how could we reboot it? We cannot open it to remove the battery because this phone is sealed right? maybe some people tell me "Dude it is an Xperia Z that can not happen" but it's just a question... ;D
this phone looks really nice. not only that, but its specs and hardware is great. i think it beats the sg s3 and possibly the s4. (def the iphone 5, no doubt). im not so sure about how this does against the htc one (m7). prob better tho.
please help me. In two months ill buy a new phone Xperia Z or ZR. Now the question is, should I buy the Z now or wait for somethig like A or UL with Snapdragon 600? So basically, it`s 600 vs S4 Pro. Will the Z work good in 2 years, without any major lags during gaming and just the UI?
Thank God for the 1.5x speed. Thank Lawdy.
the dot/full stop isn't hidden. If reviewers took time to look through settings you'll find that there's a keyboard layout option to include the dot on the main screen.

I want this phone, but my cellphone provider doesnt have it, I've had the same cell for like....5 years, it's a blackberry and it's pretty much destroyed.
exactly the same situation!
Jordan Smith Me too
At least you have a blackberry. geez,, my phone cant even get on the internet. its 2g.
tbh its getting that way
sonofhendrix is it trick2g?
You can put the dot next to the space key, you only need to change it in the settings!
who's watching this in 2016 ??? where z5 and X series is already out............
:-)
I am lol
Watching this in 2020 Lol time flies
I just got my xperia Z yesterday. Loving it ;) I used to think apple was the best mobile manufactures , but since I got introduced to andriod and sony , I immediately got hooked to andriod and sony
SONY XPERIA FTW!
Even through its a waterproof phone, i will never drown it into water
I recognize it... TRUE LOVE!!
true that thou.

There is a keyboard setting you can chose if you want the keyboard has a dot and comma symbol right on the both sides of space key.
Ive had this phone for 8 months though specs are dated now compared to recent phones still very reliable, stylish, nothing wrong with it.

thanks for the great review and the time you and your team put in to try out the phone.

I have this phone & I love it! I would definitely recommend you get the case & screen protector.
it's mainly been browsing and a lot of app downloading. It's currently at 48%. Came off charge 5 hours ago. Had browsing, music and video playing and a couple of app downloads.
yes, the only thing I hesitate on the sony xperia sp is the camera but everything else seems fine with the SP.
Any word on if and when this will land stateside and for which carriers?
You can ad dots in the text message settings. Super easy.
Not sure if I'm too late, I would recommend the S4. I personally wouldn't get the Z, but that's just my opinion. I have a nexus 4, I love it, I would recommend that too.
thanks for the advise. But do you know the date of release? i can't seem to find it anywhere
Just want to let people know this is a great phone and you will love it if you get it, but from what i have experienced there is some bugs and glitches in the Software of it...mine has crashed a few times over very little things and also had a blank screen problem which sony have claimed they fixed but i dont think they did unfortunately -_-
You should start doing gaming performance in these reviews. I for one would like to know how a possible new choice of phone performs with the latest games.
I have this phone.. I love it it's super fast, so good looking and amazing quality.
in the beginning, when you show the back of the phone, is it me, or did a spot a dent on the back cover? Or am I wrong?
I have had this phone. I think it's almost perfect. Slightly on the big side bit features and screen quality (1080p) make up for that. Downfall is the battery life. Even with battery stamina mode on and no apps ruining in the background and having stamina mode on 100% so it's always on.

Dear Phoneareana, what video camera do you use to record these reviews?
Looks good but I am dilemma buying it oneside it has got the good looks and you can play videos audio songs connecting to t.v as well this is the only feature I am execited to use it
Yea, I stand corrected about the Samsung phones. I did more research, and yes, like I said, the iphone IOS software is very decent considering older models

will sony launch a dual sim version of xperia z?
Sony needs to present themselves as a company that provides classy products. When I look at the Xperia Z I see a grand black piano, I see something that looks professional from all angles. If Sony wants to play with the big boys with Apple & Samsung, they must create quality products that gets the word to spread around.

what would you recommend between this and lumia 920 ? I'm in a serious dilema , especially because of the different operation systems :( They say 920 sucks on apps hard
how about scratch resistance ? have good protect or?
Not me. I love the S3 just not the stock launcher. I also have the Xperia T and that doesn't come close in any respect except the overall look. It may look nicer but doesn't feel as good in the hand.
I heard that the picture quality is bad if you look at it from a side angle. Is this true? Is it worth the $600 price? If so, I'll pick it up tomorrow.
you can customize the keyboard to show the dot button
I might get this phone on december/january. Can't wait :D
obviously, this is more advanced than the s3, but, should i get this phone? I mean, it comes out here in holland end Februari, my subscription allows me to choose a new phone from march till may ( when it expires).
I don;t like LG,
the sgs4 might be awesome,
the iphone 5s maylast to long and it still won't be as good as android
what else is there to wait for?
That's true. I ended up buying it a couple of hours ago. Loving it right now. Can't wait to test it in the waters. :)
The color calibration of the xperia z is unfortunately messed up. That in particular ruins the screen quality of this device.
Alot of people judge the phones these days with the quality of the camera. If it sucks this bad like you said, people wont buy this phone. The only thing i like this phone are that its waterproof, dustproof, and that stamina feature for your battery. Other than those, its just a regular android phone with better specs...

Hello,
As you own this phone could you tell me is the ringer loud ?
I was stuck with the HTC Sensation for 2 years and its speaker was so ridiculusly quiet.
Thanks

when the stamina mode is on, is that able to let the wifi thering function keep working? casue I'm using wifi from the 3Ginternet of phone for my ipad...
One of the best reviews. Thank you!
yea,but it has a micro sd slot . if u format a 64gb one to FAT32 you can use it,so total 80gb. i have it on mine.works like a charm
Great review. I think you need to take a more systematic approach to your reviews.
I don´t have the budget to this phone, but I want to have a Sony. I Think I am going to buy Sony Xperia V or Xperia SP, which one is the better one of those and why?
woop woop getting it in 3 days!! its exactly the same as experia s apart from bigger ghz and its waterproof, i am so keepingt sony's. had 3 already all experias. love them.
Nice phone.. I'm tempted to get it but the battery really is a let down.. And I don't know if the do a converter for it to my dre beats docking station :/
at 5:57 battery was 54% and 6:27 drops to 48% .in 30 min 6%
this videos are not shot continually ,there are breaks and editing for long , just like movies
Stanley Bwire
obviously that this one wasn't for long.
Good,I just got one and it's my first smartphone after got stuck with the trusty cell not-so-smart phone for 5 years (Sarcasm for that not so smart part but really that's all I need the phone to do just call and receive calls)
When does it come out for tmobile
hii
i was just wondering how much did this handset cost and were could i buy this phone in the uk?
I have the Miro which is entry level compared to this, and i love it, so im guessing this phone would be awesome.
If the pictures shown in the video were taken with the phone, I have to say they look fantastic quality. Not sure why you would be disappointed. I have the Xperia S (will upgrade to the Z) and day time pictures are amazing. If anything, I'm a bit disappointed with the night time picture quality of the Xperia S.
I decided to upgrade to the white Xperia Z stylish omni-balance design is so sleek and elegant! Should arrive sometime this week ^^ if I had the budget would have got the best of the best Ultra Z or Honami oh well just will be patient for a new Sony tablet as my next choice of tech piece =)
what is the thing attached above the xperia insignia on the back of the device and what could happen if you remove it??????
This is one of the nicest phones out now! Maybe throw in a querty keypad make it unique from the market and it could sell crazy!
It's not as thin as the samasung though.... still loving this phone for now..... but can I afford it or do I need to go for the iphone like E V E R Y O N E else
Help me please. I can't decide between the Optimus G and Xperia Z. Xperia Z, despite having high ppi seems to have bad colour reproduction and contrast white optimus g with lower ppi seems to have better quality in terms of colour etc. Also, i dont think a ppi above 300 is very noticeable at normal distances. The internals (CPU,GPU etc) are roughly the same for both so i'm really not sure which to choose. Help??
I LOVE my Xperia Z.
For those bitching about battery life - Go install a custom ROM - remove all the bloatware and garbage running in the background massive improvement.
When is this on at&t?
When does this hit America's markets for prices under 784.99 dollars
and sony didn`t hide the dot and coma, you can activate them in the settings
I must say I'm everything BUT dissapointed. the only things I can think off is, that even though I think the phone is easy to handle, for some with smaler hands this won't be as easy. And a second is that the screen, compared to an amoled, looks a bit dull, washed out.

Watching in November 2022
A criticism is camera start up time. And you didn't show it. :(
Wow I am totally blown away by Sony! This is my next phone for sure.
Why don't you make a video sony xperia z vs xperia zl
I heard that becouse the display on the zl is different we can view the pictures and videos in a better resolution ( or something like that )than the z and i want to know if thats true
@DavidThompson ohh well.. I had the same problem that's why I switched from Xperia x10 to iPhone 4 in 2010... But now I have the xperia Z and trust me, I have no complaints with this phone. I agree the display doesn't have very good viewing angles but after a while you start loving it ;D
Will you do a video on the aGPS please
I'm really thinking about getting this phone. Someone mind telling me how durable the front and back glass is. Because i'd be really pissed if it gets cracked during the first week.
a proper comparison would probably be the htc one vs this phone....yeah....that would be cool
Btw if you going to say specs say them right..It has a 443 ppi not 441
i completely agree, to be honest i just want nokia back, it was so much similar back then, when nokia were the market leader - i just hope they can get the OS up to date before they completely crash.
what are you talking about? the "walkman" is part of sonys history/ heritage its nice to see that its still there,
dunno what you want? it does the job doesnt it,
yup exactly, now even the htc one has some pretty strong aesthetic lines and gives the xperia Z something to frown 'bout!
Really great, in-depth review. The Sony is a good performer, it does well against the main smartphones which are dominating the market at the moment. We uploaded our own review of the Z on our channel, and was pleasantly surprised with it's performance.
To the Phone itself..
How about the Call quality?
I so wanna buy this phone but I'm afraid of its battery life . I've had many sony phones and they l have week battery and I have moved to the RAZR HD in which I love the battery . How is the battery of the xperia s
Also I thought the phone call quality on my C6603 is better then my S4 was.. This review contradicts a lot of my own observations on this handset.
Simple question, I don't have this phone because I'm too poor xD, but if for some reason this phone gets stock how could we reboot it? We cannot open it to remove the battery because this phone is sealed right? maybe some people tell me "Dude it is an Xperia Z that can not happen" but it's just a question... ;D
this phone looks really nice. not only that, but its specs and hardware is great. i think it beats the sg s3 and possibly the s4. (def the iphone 5, no doubt). im not so sure about how this does against the htc one (m7). prob better tho.
Since its glass does it break like the iPhones??
s4 is being announced on the mar 15, wait a two weeks
Noob question - Can I skype call while doing other stuff on the phone without loosing the call?
please help me. In two months ill buy a new phone Xperia Z or ZR. Now the question is, should I buy the Z now or wait for somethig like A or UL with Snapdragon 600? So basically, it`s 600 vs S4 Pro. Will the Z work good in 2 years, without any major lags during gaming and just the UI?
back in time 2003 , hey steve job did u see it ?? can u make any aaple device
