Dear oh dear Sony just as you about to get a foothold in world domination, this screw up! Easily the best phone not quite on the market this year, without a doubt! As in the UK, it does start rolling out this week which means we are lucky. To those Sony haters every good thing is worth waiting for and this is certainly worth waiting for. I presume Sony will shift the release of the Z3 back to allow for sales of the Z2 to get enough traction. Sort it Sony but I guess you are not used to coping with this level of demand unlike Samsung and Apple! No one seems to whine and whinge when HTC fails to hit it target release date not LG for that matter!
Sony can't beat Samsung because of availability and marketing.

Typical Sony, they always take ages to release new phones and they never seem to be on time. That along with the time it takes for their updates. I thought they would have changed once they got rid of Ericsson, but...
Anyone news for pre-orders (directly with Sonymobile) in Germany?
I contacted Sony mobile but they dont know.
thanks

What a waste you comment was. Just because you spread BS doesn't mean people are "simple" enough to believe you.

HAHAHAAA..GO TO SLEEP .
Today 14.04.2014 Sony Z2 NUMBER 1.
Sony has been making awesome phone from the last five years of so. Starting from Xperia arc to Xperia z2 is a graceful journey. This six months upgrading of the phone is a phony philosophy and Sony is already facing the problems in this regard. i wish for an amazing success of Xperia z2. Waiting for its arrival in Gulf. and Sony trust in yourself and your phones. Instead of six months phone of the same OS try to use another OS FOR THE NEXT PHONE LIKE WINDOWS TO GIVE MORE SCOPE TO YOUR COMPANY AND PRODUCTS. LOVE YOU SONY.
AnonD-180494, 14 Apr 2014Fret not about the news regarding overheating when shooting 4K video and gap issues
I am lu... moreYes, because Sony instructed buyers of Z2 to use micro SD cards so you can take 4k recording.
I'm sure you are OK with those gaps:

Problem with Sony is that they lack a Steve Jobs like person to thump the table and ensure screwups like this don't happen. It's a pity, the Table Z and Tablet Z2 are both outstanding - best tablets out there in my opinion, yet Sony push the phone more than the tablet, and then cannot make enough.
darkraver, 14 Apr 2014uuuu... The World will dry out and the sky will fall if people don't get their wanted smartpho... moreTrue but Sony is releasing flagship every 6 months so by the time the majority of people get the z2 then the next flagship will be revealed just 3-4 months later meaning the top specs you have wont be top for very long. And the price also gets reduced when the new flagship comes out so the value of your precious z2 will decrease dramatically. I chose nexus 5 for its good specs and simplicity. Yes it has the odd bug or two when you get new android version but how does Sony release such poor updates that absolutely trash the performance of their phones? Looked at the s5 and not impressed with that either as the bezels in the s4 are smaller than s5.
I hope Sony get the chance of a nexus device as its Google play versions are extortionate prices.
Fret not about the news regarding overheating when shooting 4K video and gap issues
I am lucky that I live in Singapore and currently own a Xperia Z2. This phone is incredibly awesome. Responsive is very swift with the latest firmware. There is no such issue of camera UI lagging, most online reviews perhaps were published with pre-retail units. The images taken are excellent in both Manual and Superior Auto mode. Even at low light condition, the images exhibit very minimal noise.
Moreover, with high speed microSD card, there is no overheating problem when shooting video in 4K format. I have brought my Xperia Z2 to dive 1.5m. The presence of slight misalignment does not result in water seepage. Overall I am extremely satisfied with my Xperia Z2.
Ha Ha Ha, keep going SONY, and you will defeat SAMSUNG by selling tens of millions of this defective and faulty crap after two months delay...
Oh SONY, you can not even resolve some primary problems like overheating and water resistance, and then you are claiming that making of best phone in the world and battling with SAMSUNG. LoL...
Keep going SONY, try harder, yeah you can do it baby...
Released in North America 3-4 months after its debut.. fast forward 2 months from projected availability Sony reveals Z3 or Z2+ to be released late third quarter.. Released in North America late February
mid to end of the month it shoukd be out just saying

Good to know they have problems, so they learn to work on the important things like optimizing android or making better sensors so we can take decent pictures and videos indoors.
And maybe it's also the fact that the first batch has been badly made with gaps to let water in and overheating by using the 4k recording... Something GSM didn't reported on:
