Sony Ericsson Desk Stand CDS-75
Ok, i know this desk stand, according to SE, is not compatible with our X1 BUT the stand itself is designed for SE phones that have their connectors (fast-port) on the left hand side as our X1...and it looks really good compared to other desk stands i've seen.
http://www.se-store.co.uk/index.cfm...4EE&navid=FECA7BFF-3005-8DAD-199FA2B716F55A57
What do you think guys, would our X1 be able to stand on this one?
Edit:
Ok ignore me, i've just found this video demo of the desk stand and unfortunately it will not be suitable for an X1, that is a shame because the design is perfect, it just needs a USB connector instead of the fastport
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/17830.htm lists an.... .ugly charger but it has a spot for an additional battery- that go for about $90 on the sony style site, ouch!
that is one ugly desk stand.. any others that are for the X1? very upset SE has done very little to support the phone in terms of accessories
Yah, me too. I'm gonna cry into my credit card bill.....

Considering getting one of these when they are released... I just wanted to ask if anyone has read about the wattage? If it works as a decent speaker I'd be more than tempted. If it's a measley 2.5W pile of nothing I might not bother...
i dont think the speaker will be anything good, more about just puttng the phone on a dock, but i do think its overpriced for what it is, but i love the idea of it.
I just think perhaps the wattage could be the decider... if it's good it'll be reasonable value. I suspect it might not be though
I think its more "gentle" to put the phone on a cradle like this then fiddle in the plug every night isnt it?!
Be warned that if you want to use a case on the phone and still dock it, the ONLY hard case that seems to let the "pins" of the dock reach the back of the phone is the HTC HC C704 which stupidly doesn't have a clear version like the HTC HC C700. The C700 is missing the holes!! Very odd design choice by HTC
Poor thing! And the c704 don`t seems to protect the ring around the lense of the cam.
You can't protect the ring on the camera with the docking cases because the dock has a groove that holds the camera, and the extra protection would make it sit in the dock less securely(because it can't sit flush to the dock). I believe that is why they differentiated the cases.

But there is a white and a grey version to match each colour of the phone.
For me, the dock is tempting for work to keep it charged and sync my outlook calendar.
Is anybody interested in cheaper version with only pogo-pin charging? It seems that pogo connectors are availiable from chinese producers, we just need to design the case and electronics I would throw in my 20 Euro for a good designed product.
Let me know if you are interested in kickstarted project.

I'm interested. I only want charging really, not bothered about a crappy speaker
Si
love the idea!
make it a clean design, and my money is yours
maybe a hdmi connector too? <- would pay more for that maybe as special version?
The main thing putting me off about this dock is the angle at which the device will sit, as far as I'm concerned it's far too shallow.
I agree with my Rotherham friend. I'm not interested in it doing anything fancy then
Charge the device
Make it enter dock mode
Look pretty
Si
I like it, I might get one for work, so I can clearly see my phone screen when I'm at work.
I'm guessing if the phones in the cradle then Sense 4.0 will go landscape?
I would buy a cheap dock for charging.... hdmi sounds good but I guess the cost will slowly creep up....

Can you link to it ?
Si
a link please ..?
All docks that are available now use micro USB not the pogo pins! I thought about starting a project but I'm lacking electronics skills... A friend of mine can model the product in CAD and I could find a way to print a prototype in 3D but first pogo pin charging needs to be reverse engineered and tested. I think HTC may have added some kind of accessory verification...
Is there anyone who've bought this cradle already?? The want to buy one, if the connection between the dock and telephone is good. So if there is anyone who've bought it could you give a review??

Hey guys, I just found this magnetic charging cable for a really low price: http://r.ebay.com/D4Ax5N
I didn't think I needed one but my case only has a cut out for the magnetic charger dock and not the USB port so it's getting a bit annoying to take it off all the time. This one seems to be designed for the Z1 and not the Z1 Compact so I was just wondering, would it fit the Compact? I'm under the impression that the size should be the same but I just wanted to double check.
Also, this is far cheaper than most other places. I don't have much experience with cables and chargers beyond what's usually provided in the box. Can you guys think of some quality issues that might exist? Wouldn't want it to short circuit my phone or anything although I'm not sure if that's possible

Thanks for the link. I got my case here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/121254732243?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
It's pretty good although it did have some dried glue on it when it arrived and the back had a tiny bit chipped off the surface. It has cutouts for all the ports except the USB. Idiots! That's the one that's used the most...
Hi All,
I have been looking at a few reviews of owners and their trials and errors
I would like to ask from those who have tried various docks and clip on chargers for the Z3 compact,
which of these would you recommend.
I am using a flap case with mine and don't want to end up purchasing something that totally doesn't fit
or completely useless in its ability to charge properly.
Could you give me some tips, ideas and feedback please??? Even if just listing names I don't mind
doing the search myself on the items.
Thanks!:good:
i've been using the Magnector since November, when i got the phone.
http://www.amazon.com/Magnector-Performance-Xperia-Charging-Cable/dp/B00JEMESHG
zero issues. i chose the cable over any docks because i wanted some flexibility in case i needed to charge in my car, or while travelling; and i also wanted to be able to use it while it was charging.
I'm using the Deff microusb adapter and am very happy with it.
I have it pictured with my Rinke Fusion clear case here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58136303&postcount=21
I got it elsewhere, but it's available on Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Original-Pack...rds=deff&pebp=1421284468288&peasin=B00KNLFS9E
I am using the original Sony DK48.
Battery life is OK and i can make small charges easier with it. But the device is a bit overpriced thought.
Here I come to present my lego dock for z3c & moto360
Features:
Fully reconstructible and repairable model
Cat-proof ( a cat chews/eats a part or two - you can replace it( the part, I mean, NOT the cat ))
Changable colours
Possible future upgrades (to put my gf's Z3c also to dock)
Materials used:
LEGO System A/S wanted kids to have a buildable helicopter. Didn't even try to make it.
Price:
The helicopter box cost around 800 Russian Rubles, which is about 13 Euro or 14 Dollars.
The dock built from it is priceless :victory:
P.S.: charger cable used is a magnetic one bought on Ali for like $3 for 2 pcs. the magnet is pretty weak, basically, thats why I built a dock for it to hold tight
P.S.2.: Sorry for bad language and unnatural text formating
Cheers, m8s, and LLAP :good:
lego Dock, you should try patent that before someone steals your idea
Does it come with a helicopter to Z3 compact conversion manual?
hahaha, great man looks wonderful.
