I got firmware update on my Z1 in about 1-2 days after buying it. 1-2 days is not long to me and I've never seen any other phone update this fast.

Yeah but it was more a bugfix rather than update. I mean, my Xperia T is only a 1 year old phone, it was released with ICS 4.0 but it should come with 4.1.2 straight. Sony released 4.1.2 6 months later, and now, there probably won't be another update. A third version of Android after 4.1.2 is coming, I mean come on!

If Sony plans to be third largest phone maker, they need to sort this shit. Also they need to be serious with quality check. The reports of some Z1 units having bad screen, blurred camera, and now overheating problem. They go for the record here.

This week ZTE said they want to be nr3
To be honest i think they got a better shot, because they stol most of their R&D, they got connection all over the world (corruption and lobby work, like samsung), and they can produce their phones cheaper (and with less quality).

So i gues its nr 4 for Sony, or maby even lower if Motorola finally starts to use the full potential of google

Any report on how the Xperia Z1 has sold so far? It's been out a month now hasn't it? The sales of the Z1 and Z Ultra would give us a good indication of whether Sony are on the way to meeting their goal.

I believe SONY has improved their updates off late.At least for the XS and few of the older phones.Got few updates for S in the last few months and was seeing many releases for many phones.Was impressed.

No thanks. I don't need you to as im not wrong just because you have a difference of opinion.

The proof is, other companies get targeted by hackers, as did the company I work for recently. Whats different is when a company is then taken to court by the authorities for not providing the relevant level of security towards their business and customers data.

In this area alone, Sony were completely negligent and were given a sanction to justify the judgment against them. My credit card details were part of what got hacked also, so it affected me personally. So yes, Sony did balls up, they didn't do enough.



I have. My current phone got an update as soon as I took it out of the box. Minor bug fixes which the manufacturers discover and patch after the devices have shipped is quite common, I wouldn't say it qualifies Sony as having fast updates. Bare in mind, when I got my S3 on day of release, the phone would have took a month or two to ship from the factory. That's plenty of time for Samsung or any other company for that matter to fix bugs in their software.

Twisting and bending the truth or ignoring facts to suit your opinions is a little desperate I think.

I have no faith in them as they make continuously bad mistakes. The fact they let their Playstation Network get hacked with careless security measures illustrates their poor decision making.

Somehow, I doubt Sony can do it XD They're better off where they are right now. At least they're not Nokia.
