I like the specs and size of this phone but if it gets so hot like others say, I'm afraid 45 degree heat will loosen the glue holding the glass to the frame.

This phone is awesome, great camera, great display, great performance, but this phone is ridiculously hot.
I play some game for few minutes and my phone goes up to 45* celcius.
This is first time I upset for buying Sony phone.

The phone is great but when you use an app for too long it heats up and the phone is sometimes almost burning. Never had this with another phone. The problem is known but still sony should do something about it.

Faf, 25 Jul 2016where is the fingerprint sensor? on a button or something?The fingerprint sensor is on the power/lock button.
Press it once to unlock, then softly puts your finger on it again to trigger the sensor and the device will unlock.

NOT Recommended :
- Glass scratched wihtin 2 weeks despite an existing protection. Discovered after that Son'y protection is to avoid glass shattering and not scratches ... not mentioned clearly .
- Battery is a joke and phone heating like hell for any Photos.
A total AVOID for this model

Don't buy the phone it's a total scum!!!
the camera almost never uses 23 megapixels and when it does the factions are so limited.
it's slow and get's heated up really quickly slowing it down even more...
to add to that sony claims that the phone has ip 68 which is far from trusth as mine got busted after i cleaned it under tap watter and the garanteed was voided

Anonymous, 20 Jul 201645K INR its main centric is camera, but do u really need 23 mp camera on a smart phone? Most o... moreIt may not be well known, but Sony uses the 23 MP in the sensor to oversample the image when shooting at 8 MP. The result is the 8 MP images are actually sharper than at 23 MP, and it is easy to test this and see for yourself. Of course, this is only obvious when you zoom in on the pic at like 200% or more. But Sony's implementation is very smart because oversampling is key to making sharp as tack pics. There is no one camera that is best for every situation. But I find my Z5c takes great pics. Of course, I only take pics in manual mode. IOW, taking great pics is more a function of the photog's skills than the camera and lugging around a DSLR just isn't convenient.

Tanya, 18 Jul 2016When I phone someone, the face shuts down/is off. Where can I change the setting so the "face"... moreThat has been on every touchscreen phone for a decade now it is so you cannot activate anything on screen, if you have been watching TV and see people phoning and screen stays on its because they are pretending to use phone they are not calling anyone. I often see that where they answer a call or make a call on tv and screen is still on it is poor attention to detail
