Anonymous, 22 Nov 2013Or LG G2 instead of Z1, 130 euros cheaper here(Finland) and overall the better phone imo.Z1 best buy over here in India is Rs. 38500 whereas g2 is of 40k bucks...
Ur argument stands up for ur country but possible not for many other countries....
Those bezels are for your own good because most you buy high-end phones just to play games. You childish haters.
AnonD-24213, 22 Nov 2013 Vic The whole news could easily be replaced with 2 phrases: too late and too expensive...... moreWhy are you being that ignorant? A phone shuold be as large as possible, but small enough to handle with one hand. From my experience 4.3" is perfect, may vary from 4.0" to 4.7" from person to person. Now when you got the right size, it's all about design and performance. I don't like xperias' design since ever, they don't even have keys (I'd love physical keys, I'd be happy with touch keys but those screen-projected keys are shit), too sharp edges and corners. Apart from the design, it's waterproof, dustproof and steamproof along with scrath resistant glass, which is perfect so far, I love it, and also runs on the most powerful chipset so far, snapdragon 800. No1 cares about the camera. It's simply best phone so far, for which 500€ isn't even that much, considering everyone gives 300€ for a mobile device today.
Guest_star, 22 Nov 2013dat bezzelComments about bezels are boring.......and boring is just that boring as all the Sony/Bezel haters are...!
I love my Z1 and it easily the most gorgeous phone around, my PAYG phone is the LG G2! Each to their own but I guess haters will always hate given their sad boring lives....*Lame!

If i want smaller phone with 20mp camera and there's only one of them atm, how could waiting month or 2 be possibly too late? And price tag around 500 euros (taxes) is more than adequate, considering hardware.
Sony needs to release Z1S this year. Better before Christmas. At least in limited amount in some countries. Z1S looks like a good product but in order to be successful it need to be priced correctly, released soon and be available on many markets at once. Sony shouldn't hope to sell this phone with high margin but Z1S could help them to increase market share. Otherwise - hello Xperia V disaster.
vjuricic, 22 Nov 2013I am following news about this mobile phone. I am not clear why so long time to relase it. Oth... moreTotally agree.
AnonD-206946, 22 Nov 2013What ?? , I knew that ..... 720p not even 1080p and the price just 40$ less than Z1 ??? R u k... moreThat's the price of a classy gadget. Go get some fugly phone that matches you.
AnonD-206946, 22 Nov 2013What ?? , I knew that ..... 720p not even 1080p and the price just 40$ less than Z1 ??? R u k... moretrue Gatsby this phone is downgraded version and not like s4 mini and one mini which aren't :)
I must agree with nearly everyone who has commented so far. As the saying goes "A minute late & a penny short". Sony dropped the ball on this one. And I consider myself a Sony apologist. Why grab this phone in February when the possibilities of other smartphones are endless? Not to mention? You got a new Snapdragon chipset out there. Atop that. A $600 price tag???? By that time the Bigger Z1 will be selling for about $580 giving you more BANG for you buck. Why Sony, Why?
AnonD-134497, 22 Nov 201340$ difference. Why not buy the Z1 instead? Or LG G2 instead of Z1, 130 euros cheaper here(Finland) and overall the better phone imo.
Nice Mobile I buy this rightnow........
What ?? , I knew that .....
720p not even 1080p and the price just 40$ less than Z1 ??? R u kidding
Lets see ...
Vic, 22 Nov 2013The whole news could easily be replaced with 2 phrases: too late and too expensive... great!
i am starting to believe that this phone will be for china only.
sony is messing around with the phone for months now to tell us 5 minuts befor x-mas that it will hit the market (and so far only in china) in yet another 1,5 to 4,5 months. "keep your money and go with sony." sorry sony - the 1q goes until march. a release in march would be a total marketing flop! this must be a joke! i mean what the hell is wrong with sony? bring the phone to the customer - NOW!
the Z1S release might be a total marketing desaster just like the xperia V in europe. when the V was available in europe people already went for other options. sony learned from it's misstakes it made befor 2012 but nothing form it's failurs in the past 2 years.
Come on Sony this has been rumored for long enough. If you want it to sell well you need to release it before christmas. It would sell well, when people would buy bit smaller power phone as a present, for those WHO don't like 5 ich or more phones. Now is the right Time for release not q1 2014.

dat bezzel
As I predicted - price is not much different with Z1. Similarly sized Xperia V can be purchased for almost half of price of Z1 mini. Xperia V wasn't successful on market so there is no reason to expect that much more expensive Z1 mini is going to attract many customers.
too late for z1, and if thats really the phone shown in the picture, then its not a small phone
