S SUDHAKAR, 12 Mar 2014No FM radio.So what?
I don't need it. FM radio coverage in phone is very poor, you need to stretch the wire of the headset to get a clearer reception. That's disgusting!

AnonD-239689, 12 Mar 2014See, you don't even know data cap that's why you will never understand us. I already explained... moreMaybe in your place and your place is not the whole world.
But here, there is no limit to LTE download. Literally unlimited, no restrictions. You get what you pay for. Download all you can, surf all you can and stream all you can until your phone battery goes dead. Not just the word "unlimited".
But you also don't understand how people working in a foreign land can use the built in radio if they cannot understand the broadcast in local language.

AnonD-159403, 11 Mar 2014To all SAMSUNG users : Do you really understand the meaning of build quality? I must say SA... moreBuild quality (FOR ME) is how a phone will last after months and years of usage. How it will survive cracks and wear and tear. Have any reviewers really considered that? How does your phone look and behave after years of usage? Now Xperia Z2 versus Samsung Galaxy S5 both has build quality issues. For Z2, you have cracked screens and bending frame, while in S5, you will have chrome paint peeling off and the samsung logo at the back removed. For me, Z2 uses more premium materials but has worse build quality, just go to Sony Forums and count the complaints.

Tcool, 11 Mar 2014What is data cap? Never heard before. What I know is I am subscribing to 4G prepaid unlimit... moreSee, you don't even know data cap that's why you will never understand us. I already explained it. Data cap or "fair usage policy" is putting a limit on supposedly "unlimited" LTE crap they are advertising in order to reduce the overall traffic on their network. So you have a contract of "unlimited" internet for 1 month, but within that 1 month, you can only use LTE upto 3GB of download/upload data. After that, you will be reduced to 2G, which is 1990's internet. Loading google homepage takes forever with 2G.

John.P, 11 Mar 2014Is this your new mission from Samesung to attack to Z2 ??? whatever it had problems,it has Big... moreHow is cracked by not dropping a good thing, that is alarming. You are taking care of device and it still cracks by itself. I am not ruining Sony, I just want them to read this complaints and fix it on Z2. If it is indeed fixed in Z2, then I will buy Z3 or Z4. I won't risk my money yet so I will let you Sony Xperia Z2 buyers to test it first. Get back to me after a year of using Z2 and I hope that you have no problems with it. I won't use a cracked phone even if it still works.

And where did you get that information?

Two non-government organizations from America and China are proclaiming a boycott of Apple devices. The reason is, again, labor issues within its manufacturing partners. The China Labor Watch and Green America claim that workers in an unnamed facility that makes predominantly Apple products are being exposed to toxic chemicals that cause illnesses.
Allegedly, it would cost the company less than a dollar per device to switch to a different process that won't be dangerous to workers' lives.

Do you really understand the meaning of build quality? I must say SA... moreVictor01 that is your opinion and you are quite entitled to it. However, my opinion is different. I have an S4 and I can confidently say it is the best phone I have ever had. I cannot say it is better than all the rest because I have not owned all the rest but I make a point of changing my phone every 12 months and every time I change I endeavour to go for a brand I have not tried before. This year though, unless HTC comes with finger print and water proof, I will be sticking with Samsung.
What I am saying is that IMHO Samsung deserves to be where they are in the marketplace.
As I said...everyone is entitled to their own opinion :-)

Do you really understand the meaning of build quality? I must say SA... moreSamsung was first in making a smart watch way back,not Sony. And the S5's back is make if fiberglass, not "plastic".
Don't should improve battery.

An energy save mode if the battery reserve drops to 10%, continued 4G, water resistant, support for up to 128GB of SD card, but standard HD screen; standard RAM, standard 32-bit processor, Samsung standard Poly Carb case; but still no good retina scan authentication and not even FM radio back! Sorry, there is not enough here to make me want to rush out and recommit to a new phone contract.

Do you really understand the meaning of build quality? I must say SA... moreChanghong Z9 is better.
The Z9 has managed to fit a 5000mAh battery inside it.
Changhong Z9 should outlast any other smartphone in existence. At the same time, it reportedly has a thickness of just 9 millimeters, which is impressive considering what's tucked behind its back plate.
The rest of its hardware specs aren't that bad either. The Z9 comes with a 5.5-inch, 720p display, a quad-core MediaTek SoC running at 1.2GHz, 1GB of RAM, 8MP main camera, and Android 4.2 out of the box.

To all SAMSUNG users :
Do you really understand the meaning of build quality? I must say SAMSUNG cheats openly to everyone in any device. Look at the build quality at S5 again its cheap plastic and now they will quote a price of may be 45k-50k INR. I was a SAMSUNG user earlier but shifted my gears to SONY bcoz of its build quality. SONY deserves to be best. And SAMSUNG has no better design so it copies SONY for ex: the smart watch concept and many other things as well. Guys its better if you take a wise decision by going to SONY or HTC etc. People only buy SAMSUNG coz of its brand name and waste money. Look at S4, it was a real time headache and now S5.
