Hi. I have had Xperia Z phones in the past and although i was generally satisfied there were a few disappointments. I wanted to inquire and discuss about the Android Lollipop update for the Z3 Compact: 1. Camera Based on my own experience (with the Z1 & Z2) the camera bootup is still slower than expected, the shutter button is slower than expected and the picture quality is cooler, somewhat unnatural and an overexposed flash when night shots. This experience is equal to the reviews i have read. Has this been addressed & improved? 2. Speakers I underatand the waterproofing would somehow make the speakers muffled and it has always been the case with Z phones. Has the sound somewhat improved with the Lollipop update? 3. Music/Walkman Has there been improvements on the music player such as Flac support, gapless playback and general sound enhancements? 4. Does the Z3 compact support HD voice? And are there any improvements on incoming call quality? 5. Is there a "Cancel All" button on the multitaking pane? 6. Any improvements on battery life? 7. Is there an option to auto set installing of apps & files on the SD card? 8. Any improvments on the initial bootup? My Z2 lasts 20 seconds. The iPhone lasts less than 10 seconds with an inferior specs. I am not into rooting or ROMs. I don't depend too much on benchmarks either although figures does help. And you can't help but compare to the compettition which is the iPhone 6 and i am curious as to what Sony has come up with taking in complaints & suggestions and translating those into updates. Please advice. Thanks.
Since I installed on my beloved Z1 the Lollitop 5.0.2 up-date the battery is draining incredibly fast. I can't believe it. There is a huge heat near the camera chip, even when I don't use the camera at all. And when I use it, at best I can take one pic before it heats out and stops... What a shit this version ! How a can I pull it ? When is the next up-grade hopefully solving this bug that is destroyiong my summer vacations ! How can Sony have let such a problematic up-date fly to my smartphone with no prior tests. I talked to my nefew who bought an M2 last month and he has the same issue as me, with his new phone and same version 5.0.2 of Android. Why is nobody complaining and explaining the fix ? I DON'T WANT TO ROOT MY PHONE . WHAT IS THE SOLUTION TO THIS HELL ?
