So what do people think of the new flagship from Sony? The Sony Z1

I will have to wait till after work to mess about with it but so far the reviews are not good.

Masterwai - this is their standard answer. They tell you three days for anything.

They then sent me an email saying they were out of stock online so I had to go into a store for 'a compatible headset'

Haven't been in yet but told them I want sony and not some comparable rubbish, they said this will be ok but let's are what the shop has to say slight_smile

Regarding the image quality remember sony 'fake' a lot of this. So on your device you have all sorts of software rendering going on to make things look amazing. Any device without this can't show the same quality.

Worth bearing in mind!

I'm loving it, moved from iPhone 4 to it and it's just so fast! Taking some time getting used to the keyboard and size but it's fabulous.

Great camera, great speed and already loving the set up over iPhone .

Mine came with headphones as got it from phones4u / Vodafone when O2 lost my order. The headphones are great with different ear plug sizes and it's the handsfree kit so I would insist on getting them rather than a credit if you can

I think I'm gonna keep it and give it a chance!

The scene bugs me but less each day slight_smile

The battery is a million times better after a few charges and lasting ages now.

Camera is still a concern with the images being 'faked' on the z1 screen but this is sure to be fixed with later firmware updates.

For the weight, I have just hired someone to hold it for me......lol joke of course, I will just work out more 😛

Also if anyone wants an unlock to use others SIM cards (when you are abroad for example) just request it free from O2 online. As usual you get a confirmation saying could be 28 days but I received it by email in......20 mins!!!

Credit to O2 for this part, amazingly quick!!!!
