Dont worry about it too much Neil, Ive dropped mine onto concrete atleast half a dozen times already... Looks as good as new

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.

I grabbed that cover Seiz. See how it goes. Also trying a akin wobbleton posted. Make my phone red

I don't want this to happen to this phone en-j...

oh fuck me

it bends. Just like an iphone. :\

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

35 for a screen protector...

Can you use that over the top of a skin though?

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.

Ooer my imak air case arrived today. It's so small. I like it.

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.

Was that one of the custom ones I told you about Smiss?

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.

Nope. One I bought elsewhere.

Fuck me.

Woke up this morning, phones at 38% battery. Dies around 6pm, go to charge it when i get home. Nothing. No charge. tried 4 different cables. Nothing. Sigh.

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.

Yeah it eventually started charging. But what threw me was it charged a bit in my car. Then when I got home nothing for about an hour. Then I unplugged and plugged a different cable in and away it went.

Will
Weird

Oh and it stopped charging halfway through the night before. Without it moving...

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

Samsung neil?

I'd so try turning or of and charging it. My wifes tablet sometimes won't charge when one. .bloody weird.

Wobbles is that you?

Does any smell toast?

Sony Experia Z3 Hazelb

Hopefully itll charge tonight. Ill get a Charging dock for it, that doesnt use the same connection to charge.

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?

I am with you Shonky.

My Z3 Compact has taken a fair few hits now and it is fine.

I think Neil has the bigger thinner Z3. Maybe theres a difference in strength.
