Re: Sony Xperia Z (Was rugged smartphone)
I have the Z3 compact as well. You're right Neil, sooooo slippery!!!
I grabbed one of these: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/IMAK-Crystal ... 27efe4a2d1
Works really well, is super thin and best of all, gives the phone some grip.

As for a screen protector this is what I use.. Gorilla Glass same as what most screens are made of.

Re: Sony Xperia Z (Was rugged smartphone)
Yes for nearly all cases, I am sure there would be an odd one out there..only a mm or so slight bump.
But it is also a life time warranty, you are more likely to replace the device before anything happens to it.

Re: Sony Xperia Z (Was rugged smartphone)
and now my phone is red. Winner.
feels funky... but its cool. it doesnt line up properly on the speakers its a little out. top speaker i lined up perfect, the screen lines up great then the bottom speaker is off. it should be higher by about half a mm or so. its noticable.
dbrand skins are cool, and easy as to place.

Fark. Took my case off to put on a screen protector, only to find the back is smashed. Must have cracked while in my back pocket. First time this has ever happened to me - note to self, get a better case.

I know I dont use my phone like a lot of you, but this is still pretty damn impressive. I have spent a bit of time talking on it the past 2 days.

Leave it on the charger for a while Neil, if the battery is dead flat it can take a little time before it will shows signs of life again.

Oh ok, well sounds like the phone is buggered then if it's doing it on more than one charger.

Re: Sony Xperia Z (Was rugged smartphone)
Rugged Smartphone My fucking balls.
I had it in my pocket today, and its fucked. its a MONTH OLD. chassis is bent in the middle, and its cracked both the screen and the back glass. fuck this shitty fucking phone. Oh and to top it off when the sonys screen breaks, it becomes Unusable.. screen doesnt respond.
What a Joke.

I'm starting to think you may be wanting too much from a smart phone Neil, how about a Telstra Dave?

Re: Sony Xperia Z (Was rugged smartphone)
I think Neil has the bigger thinner Z3. Maybe theres a difference in strength.
