Well, I've been a Sony user for a long time and so far, their phones are amazing. I recently did an update to lollipop and the UI as well as performance is just amazing... you guys should try it out. I understand that immediately after installing the new update, it is slightly slow and somehow annoying coz of lagging and heating BUT also I found out that it is running thousands of operations at the background like restoring t your previous data as well as apps. The message app is pretty heavy so be gentle on the phone. Once the restoration is complete, you'll enjoy the new update like never before

Ever since I bought the Z2 I've had numerous issues with the phone! I'm actually thinking of switching over to HTC! I've always only ever used Sony but I'm seriously thinking of switching to another brand now.
- The Z2 I have has horrible connectivity issues! My phone shows full bars for connectivity but no one can get through. The phone busy alert is sent to anyone who call seven if I'm not on a call.
- When anyone does manage to get through the microphone is so bad that they can't hear me and it sounds like I'm talking from far away. Everyone in my contact list complains that the volume is low even with the background noise suppression option turned on.
- The phone heats up really really fast! 5 min call and I can't keep the phone to my ear its that hot!
- Constant connectivity drops in places where there shouldn't be any drops. Everyone around me has full phone signal but I'm down to 1 or zero bars.
Anyone else have these issues with the phone?

Dragon, 08 Apr 20151. Do you notice that the speaker volume has decreased?
2. I feel that with lollipop the dev... more1. I think the volume has decreased a little, optimized for the device. The previous was a bit louder though you can feel the vibrations on the device strong enough to make me think that it could damage the device or the sheets of glass separate. I found the best volume to be 60% and above (four press-downs from full volume). In general, the sound was put down a bit for optimized use, not a bad thing here. Though it could be of the water that has remained in my device because I dipped it a few hours ago, most likely not.
2. I think the heat is just the same as on KK, though the first time I ran it the installation left my device hot as hell.
Also for some people claiming that the Z2 heats faster, the Z2 does not heat any faster than others. It's just the glass that gets more heat. Talk about heat transfer. Plastic vs glass.
3. I do noticed that the battery has gotten a bit worst from 5 minutes per 1% with WiFi on and web browsing to 3 minutes per 1%. I think a calibration and a few charges should fix this, I had my first charge and it went back to the usual 5 minutes.
4. Yes, the autofocus seems to be really slow for the device. Had tested a G3 and I think it has something to do with its laser and for the Z2, the
software.
