    Voice & Data simultaneously?

    I'm fairly certain that most new gsm phones (phones that work on ATT and T-Mobile) would be able to use voice and data simultaneously. Posted via the Android Central App

    So it looks like Lollipop in February!

    I'm a z3 owner on T-Mobile, most of us with carrier branded phones expect a 1-3 month delay after the release in February. The release in February is for the unlocked version of the phone. Posted via the Android Central App

    Thinking about getting z3. Had a couple of questions.

    Never heard of the burn in. I hanged my navigation buttons to look like lollipop. There is a theme. I've read the quick charge 2.0 is supported on the z3. You'll need a 2.0 charger and it only works using the usb port, not the mag port. With the long battery life, I don't have a need for quick...

    Should I get a Z3?

    Well, you'll need a case and good screen protectors, its got glass in both sides which is just asking for trouble. I have a z3, the only reason I'm hesitant to recommend is because of updates. The moto x will get updates faster than the z3. Other than updates, the battery life is shockingly...

    Z3 or Nexus 6

    Not sure what direction you took, I'm coming from the Nexus 5 and I'm really happy with the z3. Battery life was the big reason for the switch. I think the z2 could be a decent device as well. I financed the phone through tmobile so I ended up with the z3.

    Its a known issue with the z3. The minute I got the z3, I turned off VOLTE and wifi calling. I'm not sure if the Z3c has these features.

    Z3 vs Z3

    I agree, I was able to finance the phone so it was a better situation for me. Also, it looks like you can purchase the warranty by itself from Sony, even if you bought it from elsewhere(tmobile). Id check with Sony customer service to verify that they will cover the phone even though it wasn't...

    Z3 vs Z3

    Plus, the pricing is the same I believe. You are not paying extra to get the 32gb. One other thing, you can get the extended warranty for $80 through Sony(the unlocked version). I think it covers the device for 2 years and covers one accident damage claim with no deductible. Wish I could get...

    Z3 vs Z3

    To add to this: 1. The T-Mobile version has band 12 support (better indoor coverage). The unlocked version does not. Band 12 support is starting to be implemented, its not widespread yet 2. VOLTE support on the T-Mobile version (I turn this off because I've heard issues with MMS) 3. WiFi...

    What's New is Gone?

    I'm using nova, I'm also a former Nexus 5 owner. What's great about the transition is google downloaded all my apps when I logged into the z3. I then loaded my nova settings from my N5 to the z3. Phone instantly looked like my N5. I really don't even miss lollipop. Will be great to have a...

    Has anyone experienced the Xperia Z3 bending?

    Re: Xperia Z3 Bent I've seen a previous post on reddit or XDA. Sony didn't handle this well. I think they blamed the user. I'm a bit worried, I just got my z3, love it, waiting to actually use it until the tough case arrives. Sounds like the tough case won't prevent this though based on your...

    Which one should I get the Sony Xperia Z3 or HTC One M8?

    Re: Sony Xperia Z3 or HTC One M8 No, wait for the Z5 or the M10, I heard the one plus three is coming out. All jokes aside, get the phone you want. There will always be something on the horizon. Posted via the Android Central App

    Which one should I get the Sony Xperia Z3 or HTC One M8?

    Re: Sony Xperia Z3 or HTC One M8 I'm waiting for my rhino shield (front and back) until I switch to the z3. I'm still using my nexus 5 until the protectors and the case come. Posted via the Android Central App
