Doubt if Xperia Z3 is shockproof

 Hello, guys, I just wanted to know if Xperia Z3 is shockproof. Mine one is the Dual version. I was wondering if just the glass screen protector is enough or I would have to use those phones cases. Thanks in advance.

@CGAA,
Eventhough the phone itself is not shockproof (glass normally isn't), there are cases that you can use that will provide this feature:

I would get one, except that I can't find one that would allow for the magentic charging ports to be exposed... yes, I use them.

    -The Performance Assistant will help you disable some of the apps that you dont need.
    -There it is! Official Android 4.0.4. Ice Cream Sandwich. OH YEAHHHH!!!
    -If you repeatedly tap on the Android Version Menu. This little Primitive Droid will surprise you. HEHE!!
    -Oh, and there's also a new logo when you start up your phone : SONY ONLY not Sony Ericsson, and in its ever-so-recognizable font style. =P
    -The Sony Ericsson Liquid Logo has also been changed to Walkman, with a bubbly and quirky animation.
    -Ill try to post screenies if I can.
    -Greatly Improved Android Browser. Seriously, It's WAAAAYYY smoother than the one in GB.
    -The Browser runs smoother than GB.
    -Websites with heavy flash content load smoothly. =D
    -Saved Pages Option to view pages offline.
    - Only Android provides true multitasking capabilities.
    - Hold the Home Button and you will be taken to this new recent/running apps tab. Swipe to the right and that app is closed. =D!!!
    -Widget Preview.
    - A NEW Gallery aside from the Xperia Gallery. The new gallery provides edit options. Like Picsart or Instagram or Adobe Photoshop Express. So, if you want to save some precious memory, stick with the gallery editing options =D
    -HD playback still smooth as ever. I don't know what the fuss is all about. =P
    -Images look fine as they did in gingebread. It really depends on shooting situations.
    -Captured 720p HD Videos doesn't lag for me. Play back is smooth. Same as in gingerbread.
    -Maybe, People are just not used to the new interface, but with a little bit of tinkering, you should get used to it in no time. =P
    -The New Camera Interface. It now includes a dedicated on screen camera button.
    -Captured Photos Quality are the same as in Gingerbread.
    -Captured 720p HD Videos run as smooth as in Gingerbread.
    - The New YouTube App interface.
    - The Lockscreen Music Player
    - There was a review about not seeing the clock due to the music player. Duhhh, you can see it at the upper right corner. =P
    - I love how the album art and the album name also appears. If you are like me who converts songs from youtube to mp3. A little app called Tune Wiki can help you edit its tags so you can enable infinity view. =D
    -The New Dial Pad, which provides Smart Dialing.
    -About the lagginess issue. It takes about 2-3 seconds to start. It depends on how many entries you have in your call log.
    -There's a workaround on it though, access it through Contacts.
    - RAM usage feels the same for me. Good Job on this one Sony. =D
    - I was really worried about RAM ever since I read Sony's article about GB and ICS. They did well on optimizing this one.
    - My screenshot is not the best there is since I was syncing Facebook inside Xperia. But, normally it has about 180mb used and 160mb free.
    - New APPS installed. Some apps like Wisepilot for Xperia can now be moved to SD card, thereby freeing more phone memory.
    - My New Homescreen. It retains the very convenient four corner bubbles.
    - 5 Widget Panes
    - A New Google Search Widget
    - Walkman Player. I was expecting the music player from the NXT series. Hehe, but I guess this will have to do. =D
    - I've never seen the refresh music library option even in the GB walkman player. Through experience, everytime I add a music file it gets added in real time. No refresh required...
    - Oh, and also... I think the speaker is a tad bit louder than before. Like 20% louder. I noted no distortions
    - The orange lights work as usual.
    - Still no customizable equalizer. This is a walkman phone. It has to have superb music customization capabilities. =P
    - Battery usage for me remains the same like in GB.
    -Monster Use/Heavy Gaming : 4 hours (HD games cracked for HVGA screens i.e. Asphalt 6 Adrenaline, Need for Speed, Shadowgun, Dead Space)  Although I doubt you could play that long due to the screen size and the cramps you may get from playing. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome anyone? Haha.
    -Internet Browsing : 6-8 hours
    -Video Playback using Stock Player and YouTube App : 6-8 hours
    -Video Playback using MX player : 4-6 hours (I use it for my .avi files)
    - I use Easy Battery Saver to Optimize battery performance.
    In Super Mode it can last up to 24-36 hours with only texts and calls which I think is pretty impressive. I can go on 16 hour hospital shifts without worying about charging my phone.
    In Normal Mode it can last 8-10 hours.
    -It really depends on how you use your phone. I strongly believe it greatly varies with every user.
    - Don't believe posts that say it doesn't run as smooth as GB. IT RUNS AS SMOOTH AS GINGERBREAD. EVEN BETTER. =P
    - Sleeker new user interface.
    - All of my apps and games still run smoothly on ICS. I'll keep searching for bugs.
    - The ROBOTO font is awesome.
    - I find the interface more intuitive and streamlined than GB.
    - Lots of new features implemented. i.e. Smart Dialing, Face Unlock, Performance Assistant
    - Icons have been remodeled.
    - I also love how fluid it is now when it switches screen orientation. =D!!
    - No bugs for me whatsoever.
    - I miss the quirkiness of the GB user interface. Like the transparency of the messaging app. But I guess, I have to move on, change is for the better.
    - A SOLID AND STABLE UPGRADE. NOW MY XPERIA LIVE IS COMPLETE.
    Problems:
    -Yes, the LED SMS notification doesn't work. But all other LEDs work. i.e. Yahoo Messenger, Incoming Calls, Twitter. I guess they may have overlooked this one. It's the only problem that I see. I find it livable still. Greater good for the greater number of people =P
    -THANKS TO SONY!!! A huge step on the right direction.
    -KIMOZAVE - NOOBIE SMARTPHONE USER

    hi kimozave, ur review seems to be full of praises for ICS, but I have gone through many threads on disadvantages of ICS, so very much confused if I should go with ICS update or not....
    can you plz tell how was is experience on:
    1. Dial pad - I have read its laggy.
    2. The phone is having a hard time authenticating wifi connection when using WPA encryption.

  • Worth buying the Xperia Z3 Compact ? And a question about headphones.

    Worth buying the Xperia Z3 Compact, compared to Xperia Z3?
    And a doubt. I have had other Xperias, and headphones from other brands did not work well with him, this ''Z3 line'' is yet? It only works with Sony headphones?
    Thank You!

    Well, the headphone jack is designed to be compatible with Noise Cancelling headphones from Sony, that uses 5 pins in the pole, however, a regular 3 segments headphones should work without issues... the problem is if you try to use incompatible Headsets (the ones with microphones) since the use an additional segment and it my be located in a different way than what Sony uses.
    My advice is, if you are not the most hardcore audiophile, that you get a medium range Bluetooth Headphones. Those will be compatible with your phone...
    I have had Altec Lansing BackBeat 906, 903... Plantronics BackBeat 903+, and currently use the BackBeat Go2.
    Out of those the Go2 are the best sounding headphones for me (I do not care for tons of bass, so the amount of bass with those is very good)... but the battery is bad, around 3.5 hours. The fit is good, people complain when trying to use as advertised, but I actually found a better way to place them, making a loop around and front of my ears......  Price ~70$
    All previous ones had a battery of 7 hours, but the rubber material of the piece around your ear hardens with time and breaks (after a couple of years of use)... the Go2 seems to be better built.
    Finally I would recommend to you the Jaybirds Bluebuds X if you are willing to pay 140~160 $.... with excellent battery life, and sound quality.
    If you want to go cheaper... Sony's SBH line has plenty of option with good reviews... SBH20 being the cheapest
    And if you want to go crazy expensive, Parrot Zik are over 400$ but apparently they are the best all around. I tried them once.

  • Xperia Z2 touch screen going rampage

    When I was using the phone, the touch screen would suddenly go rampage as if touching random places on the screen. So, I decided to activate the dev option and log down the pointer movement, it turns out like a big cross and pointer moving around the screen frame, something like this: IXI , and top and bottom of course, in fact I was actually making circles in the middle of the screen. Any idea how this happen? I doubted that it might be a static electric discharge phenomenon, due to the usage of of low quality matte display screen protector which I constantly rubbing lightly. However, that is just my guess and I would like to hear from you guys as well. Helps and suggestions are appreciated, thank you.

  • How to identify my Xperia Z2 is a Genuine or Not?

    Hi
    I recently purchase sony xperia z2 from an indian online market snapdeal.com. I did some seach on google and found snadeal.com provding 2000 INR cheap price then others, finaly on 24th of december i place my order and on 1st jan 2015 i recieved my phone but what i found was it did not came with sony genuine seal. seal was already broken and what they did, they had made a sticker printed sony on it and cutted it round using secissor and pated using transparent tape. Even inside, the condition of the box does not say its a new one, but phone i think looks new but accessories inside were kept cheaper. Even the warranty and the user guide were missing and also they did not privded me the VAT bill. 
    I made the complaint but so far no response i have lots of doubs that the phone is not genuine or illegaly brought in india without paying taxes as ebay.in is provinding on there site.. but they provide much cheaper and also they say on site the phone is unsealed and does not come with warranty. The one i bough came with warranty 1 year from sony india but now i have doubts that it is the same imported one as on ebay.in and i got it for 38000/- INR.
    Also mine model is 6503 which supports 4G LTE but online what i found is that 6503 not launched in india only 6502.
    Please help I did mistake just for saving 2000/- INR and now i dont know what to do

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, then on System Report, and check the Model Identifier. If it starts with MacBookPro10, you have a retina display. If it starts with MacBookPro9 or lower, yo don't.

  • Xperia Z3 Completely Dead

    my xperia z3 less than 6 months old was dropped from about 50 cm onto the floor of my house and now is dead? tried everything from charging for 24 hours to the volume up and power and pc companion and even the reset button under the micro sd card flap the phone shows no sign of life, no vibrations, no led flash, nothing!  it was working in perfect order before the drop.  i have also tried multiple chargers and cables, no luck! is there anything else i could try  

     There's only one thing I can think of to suggest for you to try. Remove both, the SIM and SD cards > connect the phone to a wall charger > press and hold power & volume up for 15 seconds > let it charge for 2 to 3 hours. I doubt this will work, perhaps something got damaged and/or disconnected from that drop.

  • I forgot pattern lock on my Sony Xperia Z1 and i need it back

    Hello,
    on my sony xperia z1 phone i forgot my pattern lock. I can't use the Forgot Pattern Lock because it uses Wifi conection which i can't connect to...(my screen is locked) I want to hard reset it somehow but i tried allmost every method on the internet but none of them were working I tried holding the volume up and these things....but as i said it won't work for me. Can anyone please help me? THANK YOU VERY MUCH

    In order to fix this you need to perform a system repair
    Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
    Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the onscreen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
    If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

  • PI' RFC  Connection pool  doubt.

    Hi PI exports:
    i have a doubt about  pi' RFC  Connection pool ,pi RFC receive channel can set the conn pool size ,but when start the rfc receiver channel ,is there always only one Connection  pool ,or there is only one Connection  pool  instance?
      thinks
    Edited by: kevin liang on Oct 19, 2009 6:45 AM

    Hi,
      Connection poolins size means how many number of connection you want to make open to send data to ECC, We can define maximum number of connection in Receiver RFC Adapter,Go to additional parameters section and define Max Number of connection give the number there,thats it.Internally it works as Connection poolin mechanism.

  • Small Doubt Regarding SY-MANDT

    Hi All,
         SELECT changenr FROM cdhdr CLIENT SPECIFIED INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_cdhdr
                                             WHERE mandant = syst-mandt
                                             AND   objectclas = 'MATERIAL'
                                             AND   objectid   = wa_matl-matnr
                                             AND   tcode      = 'MM02'.
         I have written the select stament as shown above.
         In this i have a doubt like adding a field sy-mandt  in the where condition will increase the Efficiency of program or not.
    regards,
    raghu.

    Hi..
    No doubt the efficency would be affected but from business point of view there will many  things that need to be checked as in:
    If you are viewing data from CDHDR and CDPOS which is client specific then you are not viewing complete data.
    These tables give us and document changes made to a particular object in SAP but if anything is cross client like company code(lets assume) then changes to it wont be visible in all the clients..
    so there can be some key information you can miss out while working on some of the objects.
    else in this case its good to make query cross client.

  • Doubts with control break statements on internal table loops (AT/ENDAT)

    Hi, i've had a couple of doubts for a long while which I hope someone can clarify today:
    1) I know how to use the AT statements, however, i'm not sure I get correctly what this part of help regarding this commands means:
    <i>"The control level structure with internal tables is static. It corresponds exactly to the sequence of columns in the internal table (from left to right). In this context, the criteria according to which you sort the internal table are unimportant."</i>
    I've always sorted the internal table before the control break and it works that way. For example:
    SORT ITAB BY EBELN EBELP.
    LOOP AT ITAB.
      AT NEW EBELN.
    *   Code for the order header
      ENDAT.
    ENDLOOP.
    If I <b>don't</b> sort the internal table, it doesn't work! (i get dupplicated processing). In the example, if i have more than one register with the same EBELN and they're not consecutive, the header gets processed twice. I really don't get that part of the help text.
    2) I know this: <i>"At the start of a new control level (i.e. immediately after AT), the following occurs in the output area of the current LOOP statement:
    All character type fields (on the right) are filled with "*" after the current control level key.
    All other fields (on the right) are set to their initial values after the current control level key."</i>
    My doubt is: WHY is that this way? Because sometimes (most times) I need those fields INSIDE the statement! So when that happened i've solved it in one of three ways:
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB.
      WA_ITAB_AUX = WA_ITAB.
      AT NEW FIELD.
        WA_ITAB = WA_ITAB_AUX.
    *   ...Rest of the code for the first register
      ENDAT.
    ENDLOOP.
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB.
      AT NEW FIELD.
        READ TABLE ITAB INDEX SY-TABIX INTO WA_ITAB.
    *   ...Rest of the code for the first register
      ENDAT.
    ENDLOOP.
    * (Without AT)
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB.
      IF WA_ITAB-FIELD <> FIELD_AUX.
        FIELD_AUX = WA_ITAB_FIELD.
    *   ...Rest of the code for the first register
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    Is there any problem with this way of coding? Can be done better?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Hi..,
    1)
    See if u sort the table on a field on which u r using AT ENDAT .. then all the records which are having the same value for that field will form a group or those reocrds will be at one place.. so when u sort the table for all the records  AT ENDAT  will get executed onli once..
    If u dont sort this table on this field then all these records will be at different places and in between there may be records with different value for this field.. so this AT ENDAT will get executed for each record !!
    2)
    No u cannot use the Right hand fields of the field in the table .. Because these AT events work as Group based operations... So till that field on which AT ENDAT is working it breaks that record into two groups.. One is the left hand fields including that field.. and right hand fields as another group.. and makes the right hand group as stars ****.  Thats y u can observe that even any one field in the left hand group changes the AT ENDAT will get executed  !!!!
    Hope u understood !!!
