Sony Xperia Z1 Compact - user opinions and reviews

I have this a week. Here is my opinion.
Amazing battery, fast chipset & waterproof.
No more connection problems that I had with Samsung.
Crap sound. All sound options aside from the equaliser are useless. I got headphone music sounding ok after a day or two of tweaking but it's no iPhone 5s or even an S4. I have the speaker distortion issue as well but I'll get over it. It only happens for the first tenth of a second.
Screen resolution is fine but the colour is crap imo. I don't know if I have a dodgy phone but the blacks are set way to low on mine. Changing brightness does not change this. Good screens are htc one, iPhone 5s & any amoled. This screen is like the iPhone 4s. Crap!
Sony apps are crap. They look great but don't work properly. I disabled Walkman & it still came back to life some how but I can live with this too.
Anyway after all that, I still love this phone. I felt obliged to buy this phone. Despite this short comings it is the first phone to combine speed, battery & waterproofing looks into the 4.3inch screen size. I hope loads of people buy this phone so that other manufacturers might take note & stop the stupid screen size race.

AnonD-194974, 27 May 2014i just restarted the phone to see if what u'r saying is true..and it definitely did..is there ... moreHappened on a HTC i had some years ago, after deleting the files i had to go to settings - storage, unmount and remount the SD card, then they didnt come back. But i have a feeling this method will not work in this case, i believe these files are stored in internal storage of Z1C, not SD card, right?
It was kindof a big problem on the HTC, my wife found pictures of all my girlfriends in that HTC, big thumbnails that were "magically" restored.
