Ordered this phone from flipkart. Received it in 5 days, and have been using it since one week now.
Following are the pros:
1. Superb display. Do not get fooled by the reviews, the display is just a pleasure to look at!
2. Excellent performance, nothing seems to slow it down. No matter how many apps you run simultaneously, it will never slow down.
3. Amazing battery life. I will not say it lasts 2 days, but it will effortlessly get you through a day of heavy usage.
4. Looks absolutely stunning, feels every bit a 50k phone! You will seriously feel like patting yourself on the back when you see a Samsung plastic S5 is someone else's hand!
5. The audio quality of the stereo speakers is mind blowing. Period.
6. The Sony walkman app is really an eye candy and a joy to use.
7. Water proof.
8. Double tap to wake is a really useful feature.
Cons:
1. A bit uncomfortable to hold, even for my big hands.
2. Camera is a bit disappointing, the low light photos can be an embarrassment at times. Hopefully a future software update will fix this as the hardware is top notch!
3. 16 GB(10 gb usable) internal memory does not give peace of mind, as even though expandable, it limits the no. of apps that can be downloaded.
4. At Rs.50000/-, is definitely over priced and not very different from the Z2 or the LG G3 or the HTC One M8.
Overall I am very satisfied with it, however I feel that at 50000, Sony could have given us a little bit more. I recommend you wait till the price drops.
