I think he's referring to the general phone market by above average.

@Penguino You said that Z3+ is still fresh.. well not really, it burns remember? xD jk
-----------------------------------------------------------
See what I mean...? But if they skip IFA, it's okay.. I'm not getting any new phone other than Z3, though.. I'm waiting too long for a true phone/flagship from Sony..

@XYZ - i was looking into getting a Z3 as i've dropped my Z1 so many times it's beginning to show signs that some of the circuitry inside may have been damaged. ha. But the Z3 is still going for about $500 USD as far as I have seen. That's still too pricey for me

I'd pay ~$300 for an intermediate replacement.

Yeah, I was on the same boat. The last straw that broke the Z1's back was my vacation to Italy last month. My phone fell and cracked the screen, which caused the upper left corner to stop working. Later on, the crank got bigger extending to the right side, causing a third of the touch screen to stop working. Was really considering the Z3, then heard the Z3+, but due to over heating I didn't bother. Ended up getting an Asus ZenPhone 2, you should check it out, fits your cost requirement,

. Now I'm happily waiting for the Z5 family to be announced.

@MNX haha.. wow. yea, my Z1 is still working pretty well for the most part. Things are falling off (the ring around the power button and headphone jack) and flaps aren't staying closed but it still works. I have an issue with the SD card not always working, but i'm not sure if it's the card of the mechanism that reads it. probably the latter due to all the dropping. I am eagerly waiting for the Z5 series to be announced and if there are a lot of big upgrades, i may be tempted to go for it. I had initially planned to keep my Z1 for at least 4 years, but all these drops are making that goal seem impossible.

@moogoo Same here, was planning to keep it a while, but unfortunately those drops and whole slew of other things. The first to go was my power button, it got 1/3 depressed and became stiff. The speaker grill at the bottom came off due to the glue constantly being melted from the heat. Then my gasket came loose on my usb port causing the port to not close. After that the ring on the 3.5mm port fell off.... After all this, that's when the drop happened, haha. Seriously though, I hope that the new Z5 or whatever it will be called, aren't plagued with these build issues.

@MNX - agreed. Those little touches are nice and all, but they should be attached in a way that it won't just fall off with use! My speaker grill is dented and warped from my drops ..
I am with you on the Z5. I remember we were in the Z1 search/purchase boat together back then, and I assume we will be in the same boat with the Z5, if it turns out to be everything we want and more.

Wasn't the Z3+/Z4 supposed to use this updated version? I swear I saw a post somewhere about it using the updated processor.
edit found it, if it is using the v2.1 and it still overheats, don't think the issue was solved?
