Hi lads,
i bought a bodyguardz full protector for my desire z, last Monday (the 3rd of Jan), and its shipping to Ireland, i just want to know has any1 in England purchased one and how long did it take for them to deliver because i did pay for the cheap shipping but it is taking a lot longer than expected...
I wasn't issued a tracking order,so UPS wont help me either so nobody knows where it is!!!! ahhhhh
Dear all, I have looked for the Xperia ZL on all major online retailers I know in Europe (clove, expansys, carphone warehouse). None of them has the ZL. The only store which sells it in Romania sells the non 4G one, 5602. I would like to buy the 5603. Anyone has any idea why these online retailers don't sell this beautiful phone? I am a proud owner of a Motorola Razr Maxx and I know I will never have such a long battery life again, but I''m tired of the dual core 1 Giga memory limitations.
Thanks!

I couldnt help but notice that at carport, shipping to Romania or Greece is 50 euros, compared to 14 euros or even cheaper to other EU countries
But I will explore these options, thanks!
I bought it a Cyberport.de, and sended it from Germany to the Netherlands

How's everybody doing?
I'm looking to order an unlocked Z1 Compact either tonight or tomorrow and am wondering the best and most reliable sites to purchase from?
Also, I imagine I lose the Sony warranty with an unlocked Compact because it's not available in the US market right?
Is it a wise idea to buy a SquareSoft 2 year warranty from Ebay or Amazon? I've been trying to research them and am getting mixed results including a lot of complaints of them scamming and semi-scamming on claim attempts, but often the bad reviews and experiences are the loudest and most glaring.
Anybody have experience with any of the following re-sellers?
Negri Electronics
Wireless Everything(through Amazon)
Cells4U
Techno Trading House(through Ebay)
Never-MSRP(through Ebay)
Open to other suggestions of well of course, but I really need to get this in by say Monday, so not looking for any super long wait international shippers unless the price and reliability of the seller was superb, but even then any issues probably mean international return shipping on my dime so I'm a little sketchy on those options.
Sony won't sell them direct to US customers...
Thanks in advance guys, really excited to get this phone!
Expansys USA
Hands down the best site for us customers ...
I got 4 phones from them and all came in sealed
Box all accessories and US wall adapter....
I got mine from Amazon.com, seller My-Wish-List. No complaints. Not sure on warranty but I wouldn't expect much from Sony even if bought legitimately. I was counting on Amazon.com to back me up if the phone was DOA.

No doubt, hands down the best I've purchased from is Clove. I have purchased two phones from them, the first needed some repair, and they were very good about facilitating the process and getting it back to me. No need to look elsewhere.
Hi, here in Singapore,it actually sells for about 500USD so i would consider it a good bargain.
Thanks everybody. I ordered the phone about a half hour ago from Amazon, went with Wireless Everything.
Ordered a case, some tempered glass screen protectors and a cheap rubber case.
Think I might wind up with a Devil Case once they drop them for the Compact if it will fit over the screen protector.
Really excited to get this, I'm coming from a REALLY old phone that had died and came back to life so many times it was basically a zombie.

Good luck. You're going to love this phone. I have nothing but good to say about it. (except I see it's about $20 less now than when I ordered it)
What carrier are you on? I'm on T-Mobile and both H+ and LTE work perfectly.

I am also on T-Mobile. Been using a HTC G2 that was almost 4 years old before it perma-bricked about 2 weeks ago and have been using a BB Bold borrowed from a friend since then while I've been deciding what phone to go with and from where.
I ordered from Expansys Canada but the phone shipped out the States. When it came the box had been opened and a charger adaptor was included. Maybe should have gone through Amazon. Phone is working well but had to manually put the Rogers Canada APN in. Great phone though.

For what it's worth I contacted USA xperia support and asked them about this. They said that it doesn't matter if the unit is not available to purchase in USA, and that I have a 1 year warranty on my phone that would be honored in a sony usa service center. I have my doubts about the quality of the service but it sounds like at least we're not stuck with no warranty at all.

I have my Z1 compact in for repair at Sony, and they don't sell it in my country.
Sony said that they would repair it, but no guarantees on the turnaround time. It's usually 14 days. business days.
That's for phones that they repair all the time. They said that they may have to send the phone out to a diff repair center in another country.
I got a lemon where the Z1 would sometimes detected my sim, and sometimes not. Faulty sim card contacts in the phone or something like that.I'm chalking it up to bad luck.

Hi there...
So I need some help cause I live in Brazil and I want to buy a case for my z3 compact but I can't find it here in local retailers or even online... I can only find it in US online stores, such as amazon.
here's the link:
http://www.amazon.com/Mercury-Goospery-Quality-Shockproof-Compact/dp/B00PZ13IDA
The case is from the brand Goospery. Ive had the oportunity to test it since my cousin have one and I really liked the material the case is made of.
So if someone can buy and ship it for me I would be forever greateful!
And of course I would give the money for the whole process...
Due to the lack of alternatives in compacts only (iphone se which has to small display, no notification led and iphone 7 without headphone jack) i have preordered this little black powerhorse. In Germany you get additionally headphones when preordering (Value 220€-300€). the ones that were presented at ifa.
when LG would produce a v30 mini i would immediately buy this. Really like the mics in v30 that allow to record a loud festival. hope that the xz1 compact will not fail at this.
i finally need a new modern phone compared to my z3 compact. i hope that the touchscreen will be this time more responsive than the one on x compact when typing letter p or q from the side through the curved glass. now lets wait 3 weeks

I'm sat with the money waiting too, not been this excited for a new phone since waiting for my Z1 Compact. Looks like they're still putting the power button in upside down though.
Debating ordering from Clove again. I can't believe that it'll be cheaper by about 12% to import to the US than buying at the local Best Buy.

Where are you seeing the price for it at Best Buy? I ordered my X Compact from Clove as well. Looks like they are offering some free bluetooth headphones if you order from them. I suppose you could sell those and knock off some more of the price right there. :good:

MSRP is $600 for the compact and the headphones are limited to the first 400 or so registered. I have some Best Buy credit, so I'll probably get it local in case I'll need to exchange it.
Is it available in the US yet

Well, Clove just told me that they won't have the Blue color, which I wanted, at launch. Apparently the Blue will be exclusive to Carphone Warehouse at launch. Looks like I'll be waiting to see what Best Buy and Amazon get.
Is there any way to get carphone warehouse to sell to someone in the US? I really want the blue phone

From their website, it says only UK. Maybe the blue color US version will be available at Best buy or Amazon here but you'll have to deal with no fingerprint scanner out of the box (hopefully firmware flash will fix).
The Blue is available from Handtec, but without any pre-order bonuses.
I read through that tmo/lte thread. Do we know yet whether the european version of this phone is going to be fully compatible with tmo/att in the US?
I'm very excited about this phone. It has been a long time since I used a smaller handset, but I think I'll like the 1 hand usability a lot more.
Hope is worth to wait 3 weeks
Preordered a week ago as an upgrade from CarPhone Warehouse hope we gonna get root soon. I am still using my 2 years old Xperia Z3 Compact without any issue except the loudspeaker issue with android 6.0.1 still there i learned to live with it. Was looking for different phones like LG Q6 but CPW cannot provide that either just like the other 4 i was asking for. Got a few dosen calls from the sales team and they insisted that i should chose a huawei P10 or a samsung S8/plus even i told them that these units are too big for my taste and [email protected] for me. Finally i spotted XZ1 Compact.

What is this loudspeaker issue that you speak of? I'm not noticing any such issue with my Z3C.
When you put it on loud during a call the other party hear crackling and bubling when they speak. I have two z3c and both duing it. Plus when i switch back to phone speaker the nic gets disconnected so nobody hear my voice. Lol

I preordered from clove, seem to be the only ones with a bonus. Carphone warehouse had the XZ1 offer of the hear headphones on the first day, but that seemed incorrect and they removed it pretty quick. Either way, the actual odds of getting a set of those headphones were really limited as it was only first 400 customers or something.
The clove offer is a bluetooth adapter by the looks of things, not actually headphones. It just allows you to plug your existing headphones in and clip it to your shirt or something. Seems like a good idea.
I've got a Z3C at the moment, but my screen is beginning to lift off and it's taken out the headphone socket in the process. I also can't imagine it'll get any more updates to it.
Uk release date is 29th hope i gonna get it soon after. In carphone warehouse i been told anyone who preorders it before 21th could get the bt headsets.

never-msrp (well known USA seller) on eBay supposedly has the Compact in stock. It's the international version, so assuming no US warranty, though. I ordered the blue version and says I should receive it by Tuesday, Sept 26.

Also preordered (as an upgrade to my Z3 Compact) from Germany. Hope they will send it before 29th
