Rather disappointed with this phones design, the plastic feel around the edges. I have the Z1 Compact which has an metal frame around the phone. That gives it a very quality steady feel. But this new Z3 Compact the metal has been replaced by plastic and it feels awful.
Sony go back to the Z1C design with the metal around it for the Z4C this is not good enough on a £400 phone. Even the Xperia M2 feels better quality..

It is normal that the phone reboots when you removed the sim. You may try it on other sony android phones.

I have 5s and have been on GSMArena charts comparing its cam with Z3C and most of time Z3C is better using 8MP mode.Although don't own Sony just yet it seems fine to me.Off now to do video comparisons.Up to now i think this should get handset of the year,,all the power in a proper smartphone size package..Also it has lanyard and notification LED and waterproof and proper shutter button and superb battery life over most other smartphones..

OK Lets be picky and say it has no xenon flash .
