    SHIELD TABLET UPDATE : 2.2 OTA (WiFi & LTE Models )

    I just got the same 2.2.1 update. What's this color-space correction?

    Moto X (2014) Pre-Order

    OK, here's how to fix that... I just dealt with both. Remove everything from your cart. Clear your browser's cache. Start the process from scratch. Make sure your credit card info matches what your bank has on file exactly. Make sure your ship-to and bill-to addresses are the same. Make sure...

    Xperia Z2: Available in the US on eBay?

    I noticed that too with some of the Z2 listings. I believe that they are listed as Z1 Compacts because eBay hasn't been updated to include the Z2 as part of their cell phone database. I wasn't able to find it in there myself. I'm not sure what the deal is with his shipping date. It was...

    AT&T LTE?

    Mine just worked with AT&T LTE from the start.

    Gap in speaker grill?

    I didn't have a gap in my speaker grille, but I did have a small speck of what appeared to be metal underneath the glass surface of the phone. I didn't even notice it for the first few days, and it was EXTREMELY minor... but once I knew it was there, my eyes always noticed it. I did an exchange...

    Xperia Z2: Available in the US on eBay?

    Re: Available in the US on eBay? The phone is awesome, I'm very happy with it. Especially the speakers! I am on AT&T, and I get about 40Mbps down/7Mbps up on their LTE in Minneapolis.

    Xperia Z2: Available in the US on eBay?

    Re: Available in the US on eBay? If anyone is interested in purchasing the Xperia Z2 D6503 (the version that works in North America and most of the world), I will be selling them for $869.99. They come with Sony SRS-BTM8 Portable Wireless Speaker and MDR-NC31EM Noise Cancelling Headphones at no...

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Who has ordered the Z2? No, I just zoomed in to see if it could manage to zoom during 4K video recording. I thought it might be laggy, but it was solid.

    Are there Americans who have bought/imported Z2 and can comment on network quality?

    Mine got amazing reception and speeds equal to the best I ever got with my AT&T-branded phone. I used to get about 11mbps down reliably with my Optimus G. My Xperia Z2 sticks around 40Mbps.

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Who has ordered the Z2? Here, take a look at this video. I made it last night. I'm going to make another one today, because the lighting was terrible. I always remember to take 4K videos late at night... Anyway, once I pan to the right and stop constantly moving the phone, you can see the...

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Who has ordered the Z2? No, my glass hasn't shattered. But there are people on YouTube who like to use hammers, keys, and blades to test the quality of the glass on phones. The HTC One 2014 was extremely resilient! Now that I look on YouTube, I see that no one has really tested the Z2 in...

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Xperia Z2 phone of 2014 thus far? Yes, it is. In the hands of amateurs who rely on automatic settings, any camera will fail to live up to its potential. Give the camera to a professional, and things change drastically. The camera was reviewed by experts recently, who determined that the Z2...

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Xperia Z2 phone of 2014 thus far? He's right. It's (4) 13MP images software-stitched to create the illusion of a 50MP image. However, it will always be 4 images. They aren't cohesive, taken at the same time from the same position. If I took 4 physical photos and taped them together, I...

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Xperia Z2 phone of 2014 thus far? Even an 8MP with optical image stabilization is worth more than patched-together 13mp photos.

    5 Reasons To Buy The Z2.

    Re: Xperia Z2 phone of 2014 thus far? Rob, I was merely speculating that the 2K version of the Find 7 will struggle with battery endurance. That screen should theoretically be quite the power hog. The Z2 and F7-2K are about the same price, and the battery on the Z2 is larger. Plus, it has a...
