This phone is perfect with it's 4.6'' screen. I hate big screens. BUT, I need a dual-sim! Is there any chance for a Z5 compact dual sim?? is there any new phone coming with 4.5-4.7 screen dual-sim????

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.

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

45K INR its main centric is camera, but do u really need 23 mp camera on a smart phone? Most of users use smartphone camera for social media sharing.
Any smart phone with 20+ mp is total waste of bucks.
at this price I can buy a decent androind phone and a marvelous DSLR camer

And this is even when playing games like Asphalt 8 which have a huge amount of graphics.
My wife has the Z3, a simply gorgeous phone. She initially got one of those wallet type cases for it. But the phone was getting too hot, so she had to take it out and now just has a tempered glass cover on the screen and no case.
I don't have a case either. Instead I have a tempered glass protector for the screen and a clear plastic protector for the back. They were both less than 10 USD. If you have a big thick cover for the phone, that could cause problems similar to how wearing a thick coat in the summertime would make you hot too. Plus cases are bulky and ugly. However, my tempered glass protector is beautiful, resists fingerprints, doesn't scratch, I could go on. It is the perfect addition to my Z5c. I will never use a case again.

I recently experienced my first encounter with the phone wanting to shut down because it was too hot. I was trying to make a video in hot, 100-degree weather, but with the sun beating down on my black z5c, the phone was getting too hot long before I hit the record button.
Otherwise, I have filmed 4K shots as long as 15 minutes without any problems. I think part of the reason for my success though is I have a 128 GB microSD card, and I configured the phone to record all pics and vids to the card versus the internal memory.
To me the microSD card slot is one of the best parts of the phone. 4K video takes up a huge amount of space fast and there isn't a single phone out there that has enough internal memory to handle 4K video imo.

Its best just to let this function be and wake up the screen when needed.

Terrific in everything
Performance, camera, display, music, size, speed, everything
Good in battery life
The only con is the heating issue, it is not overheatting at all and nothing that u cant bear, but it does sometimes get really warm, occasionally hot.
Month after month, i really started to feel frustrated from this, specially when summer came, to carry this hot in my pocket i really cant withstand anymore, may be i will get any mid-ranger to use till october and then return to z5c in november to carry in my suit, yeah why not!

Although 8 cores, Z5C has lower clockspeed than Z1 compact, makes me (what i feel) longer time to installing app and switching multiple apps. Underclocking Z5C would be nightmare, i think XD. Can software patch possible to solve overheat??

I have just one problem with this phone. Sometimes when i phone the phone screen goes black. Does anyone no why this happen??? I cannot disconnect or nothing . I must wait that the person on other side put down his phone. Then my screen comes on again. Then i restart phone again and then everything is okay for 2 or 3 days again before doing it again. Very frustrating indeed. The phones software is updated to the latest there are.

Beautiful Phone. Beautiful user Interface (Much better than Samsung) and an Unbeatable Camera. May get a bit toasty at times when streaming a lot, and a very fast GPU, (Snappy 810)

Great phone. Any chance of a DUAL SIM version of this phone? How about a stylus (similar to s-pen). I want a small phone and this is the perfect size. Plus removable battery.
