Sony Z3 Compact - The best little Android in the universe

[Hazelbag]

I currently have the Z3 but was think of maybe getting a compact due to size.

I love my Compact but want to swop my Note3 for the normal Z3.

Come on Sony. Release Lollipop already.

Do you think the battery life on the compact is better than the normal one?

Don't know. I think the better and bigger screen of the Z3 might influence the battery life, although it's got a slightly bigger battery than the compact.

I do get nearly two days on a full charge with some YouTube, games and some other apps. Which is good. But what do you get on the compact

I don't use Stamina mode and get about a day and a half.

GPS always on
Screen Brightness 70%
Screen on time 6hours+
Lots of messaging
Radio use in the mornings
Other apps etc.

Then I will rather keep my Z3 and sell the Z3 compactat I got as a gift from the in laws. Whats a fair price for a compact?

About R5.5k? Depending on the condition. I enjoy the bigger screen size of my Z3. Just missing it because it's in for repairs due to a failed headphone jack Been a week and Vodacom say it will still be another one or two!

Well, I got it on Sunday when my in-laws came to visit, so it is basically brand new still. I did take it out of the box to compare and get a fell of it but it felt like too much PT to transfer everything so I put it back in the box. I will open a for sale thread now if someone is looking for a Z3 Compact.

Hi guys, has anyone tried to connect to a TV via an MHL cable?

I just tried now but it did not work, yet my colleague's S4 mini worked.

Does the Z3c require a specific MHL cable?

Sorry to intrude folks, but is there a thread for the Z3? I've searched but can't seem to find it?

First week of March past, still no Lollipop.

I received my charging dock from china... works great.

Looks like Lollipop should be rolling out next week. Don't know how long it will take to get here
