My impressions of this phone:-
-Nice design, nice materials which are premium.
-Too big for a 5" phone, cannot believe how much bigger and heavier it is compared to other 5" or 5"+ phones.
-Screen is very good better than the Z.
-Battery seems good.
-Nice UI
-Camera is very hit and miss and I don't like the processing used, a lot of shots are blurry too and I'm not sure I am that impressed with the camera, considering the sensor size, F2.0, G lens and Bionz I don't think it lives up to its expectations.
That's being completely honest.

For camera wise it depends on the user. Blurry it's because of your shaky hands . That's the same for digital slr. That's why tripods were there. The best is to use handheld twilight for dark places or indoor shots. And turn off stabiliser. It's useless. I also used intelligence auto mode. It's usually the preferred mode. Look at page 15 and 16 of the pictures settings comparison I posted. (It's on the pictures taken by z 1 topic.)
And if you are complaining about huge bezel, you hold the phone with both hands as if you are holding a compact digital camera. Can you do it for other phones?

you can't block a number, but you can have it sent automatically to voicemail. just add the number as a contact and set it to go straight to voicemail.
only way to block a number is to call your provider

really? I thought its a built in android feature, I remember I can do that easily with my S3. Reading up on XDA, it seems like Z has or used to have this feature but it was later removed?? What the hell are they thinking. Anyway to contact Sony Mobile? Definitely need to file a complain for this.

thanks but I rather have something that is built in, trying to avoid all 3rd party apps to keep the OS clean. Anyone know Sony mobile support page, definitely going to start a new topic there....... since new firmware should be out with 4.3 I hope it will make a come back, along with the call recording feature that is missing from the early firmware.

I use Avast Security on the phone and there's a call blocking feature on there. Works a treat.

thanks xperiajungkie, posted there, hope they pick it up or acknowledge it. If it isnt coming with 4.3 update then is probably too late to add, but hope they can add it with 4.4 update.
