Confirms my thoughts on why gsmarena's z3 final firmware posted the crappy scores that it did. After this update antutu scores go back up to around 53k+, obviously this for first run, but with repeated runs the deviation is no more than 10% (that's what I've heard from netizens who own the device anyway). Seems the launch firmware had some major bugs causing the overheating (sadly that's a bit typical for Sony, the original z and z2 suffered similar overheating issues on their very first firmware builds). Would be nice if gsmarena re-updated the scores with this new build, though I personally don't think they'd be able to find the time. In any case, I suggest whoever is interested in buying a z3+ to watch user reviews and comparisons off youtube as that will give you the most updated opinion.

    So does that mean that the z3 will now be faster than the z3+? Since sony need to lower the clock speed of the snapdragon 810...

              Remember When SONY was making Televisions(screens) cameras and music players and Game consoles to make our lives happier these new brands were not even born yet,so best screen+best music player+best camera+best Gaming console is now in SONY mobile products. Try SONY once and you will regret every moment you have used other brands in your life.

                      easy fix:

Just like a liquid cooling system. . Huwaaah hah huh haaah. . Wuhih hah huh hih haaa. . Finally . . How is my laugh. .? :-)

                                      Translation: We throttled the phone a little more so it won't overheat.
