I have never had the z4v and always wanted to try a Sony device. Might snag one just to see how Sony does things.

No, will not be getting a Z4v. I have a Z3 on Tmo (which I truly enjoy) and have no desire to move to Verizon. Other reasons I won't be using a Z4v:

1. It is not a stock Z3+ / Z4. It is thicker so will require a specific case. I suspect 3rd party support will be almost non-existent.

2. I don't trust the SD810. The persistent over-heating reports concern me.

3. I think this is a stop-gap release by Sony. I think we'll see a new design for the Z series in the near future (late summer / early fall).

MHO....for what it's worth.

I agree with all of your points. At the same time I bet Sony will use most of these upgraded specs for the Z5. Probably the only spec that gets left off is the 810. Another processor will be used for sure.

I think I'm gonna get my son this phone as he's into his ps4 a lot. His Droid Ultra is starting to lose its charge and his upgrade is in July. When is this phone being released?

Think I'm going to replace my wife's S4 with this phone. Only concern is the 810, but the only thing she does on the phone that might trigger overheating is take videos. Hopefully Sony/Qualcomm have things sorted out by now. Wonder which version of the 810 Sony is using.

Just saw this artical this morning on v2.1:
Comparing Snapdragon 810 v2 and v2.1: More Memory Bandwidth, Higher Clocks

Me too. If Sony is using 2.1v that's fine

Running the z3v now. Yes will get it. As soon as foxfi support is released for it.

This is on my hit list, well the UK unlocked Z3+. It comes with extra headphones/audio bundle worth £275 allegedly. If it has great audio that may appeal, though I almost never have headphones on outdoors, except for talk radio features and sports commentaries. Hi - res music while away in hotels would be good. I too want to try a Sony.
I wonder how the Triluminos led compares to amoled for reading websites and books, but I can check out the regular Z3 reviews.
Not bad contract prices compared to S6 etc. Good camera, battery , 3 gb ram, water/ dust resistant.

Others on my list are outright buys on the 32gb Moto X 2014 from Moto Maker @ 269, Note 4 at 419 from Amazon, and some mid range phones.
I let my Note 3 go (for now) and use a Moto G 2013.
 
Really want this phone but concerned with snapdragon 810. Seems the z3+ is having issues overheating hopefully they have fixed it with the zv4

Have had the z3v from Verizon for couple of months now. Have had NO over heating issues. Even left it in a closed car for 2 hrs (92 ° outside) and still no issues. Maybe I am lucky.
