Is the Sony Experia Z3+ coming to O2?

Anonymous
Not applicable

I received an email from sony all about how the Z3+ has 2 days battery life etc and wondered if O2 is getting this new device?

 

I have looked at the phones on offer and there doesnt appear to be a Z3+ just a Z3 and Z3 compact.

 

This is the email web link: http://view.news.sonymobilemail.com/?j=feca15737260077e&m=fe9713727564017973&ls=fe5816777d61057f701d...

OK, devil's advocate here,
Get the standard z3 it has EXACTLY the same features with exception to the overheating cpu (which I and others predicted would happen)
The z3 is on offer everywhere for 30 quid a month and is worth every penny...
This is not and the only way you can get a good experience with it is either through massive throttling or getting snapdragon 810 revision 2.1 inside it, which is impossible to tell unless you already have it on to check on an app.

The old Z3 is the one to have right now.

Sony has accepted it as an issue and have an update planned to throttle the CPU - Admitting that it's the cause of physical damage though is a different story altogether.

Because they have so much riding on it,

I'd they admit it, they must recall all z3+ and all tablet z4

They can't afford to

Just to clarify, the z3 will do EVERYTHING the z3+ will do, excluding burning your leg.
One of the best phone I've had.

Why do you guys think the previous model is better out of interest? What are the sticking points of the plus do you think?
