If you got jump, you can always switch when it comes out. You can also pay off the phone early and sell it. I'm most likely gonna just pay it off early and sell it if anything better comes along.



My new phone came in a few days ago and so far so good. No crashing, no freezing, no random restart/reboot. None of the problems I had with the first phone is here. :)


On a side note, has anyone bought that Sony magnetic charge cable or Dock yet? I was thinking of buying this generic brand and see if it works.

the VicTsing works fine, been using it for a few days. No more fiddly USB. Also the smart actions (or whatever they call it) works well with the dock.

I bought exact same one from amazon before I got my phone, and it worked well, and it worked well and cheap enough, i just ordered another one so i can keep it at work as well.

One thing to note about this, the cable (usb) is so short, I ended up using one it came with the phone.

I give you all props for both brave and able to use the phone without a case. The slippery back is a pia for me. Looks great but never liked glass back on phones especially not for a big phone. I gave in and bought the stupidly expensive tech21 tpu case from Tmobile. It was highway robbery but very good material and I have no fear or dropping it or it slipping out of my hands.
 
Just returned my Nexus 5 and bought an Xperia Z1s from T-Mobile. The Nexus 5 had horrendous signal and radio issues. Thus far, the Z1s has been flawless, definitely feels like a more premium device. The viewing angles aren't as horrid as some reviews make them out to be.
 
I have to agree the view angles are not that bad I played with one last week before they were available

I'm coming from Lumia 810 and bought the Z1s it's my first Android phone and so far I love it! Very impressed with the features this phone has to offer compared to my Windows phone this thing runs circles around any Nokia device I've owned. Googles turn by turn voice navigation is just the bomb diggity Here drive can't hold a candle to Google's nav mapping and I'm not out of the loop when it comes to apps. I feel like I was in a bubble with Windows phone with very limited business apps, now I've got Geico and a couple of banking apps and also Amazon mp3 app. Now I can play or dl to my phone from the cloud. Can't do it with Windows any of it.

This phone as far as features has way better support for videos and music. I was finally able to play my Led Zep flac albums on the phone and with SD support with up to 64 gigs and 32 internal I feel like I finally have a real phone built for my life style. I work in Natural resources industry and am constantly near water so I feel confident about not having to worry about dropping it water. I'm really impressed with the performance and battery life it's pretty insane on this phone. And the ability to back up to PC is a big plus in my book can't do it with Windows you can't do alot of things with Windows. 810/925 compared to this phone there is no contest hands down the Z1s with Sony's built in UI and the fact I can load any app is just a winner to me.
 
I picked up the z1s today and seem to be having some wifi issues. Very slow, wifi calling won't work...wifi works fine for every other device in my house. Anyone else seeing anything related to wifi?
Update:
It seems to be connecting Ok to Wifi now after a reboot and disconnecting and reconnecting to my network. Speeds are good, but wifi calling still won't work.

Wifi Calling does not work on my Z1s either. I can receive calls and even text, but I cannot make calls. This is a big deal to me. Everything else about this phone is perfect. I enjoy it quite a bit.

WiFi calling works here, but I know how picky mobile devices can be relative to different routers. Probably a function on internet service, speed, router, and network settings.
