[Xperia Tablet Z General] SWFlyerUK:
These are two completely different products by two completely different company.

Sony VAIO designed the first two tablets, with no previous android market experience, the tablets where somewhat of a flop with a lack of upgrades and general interest by Sony.

The Xperia Tablet Z on the other hand is a device that for me, ticks all the boxes whilst sitting at a decent price. I've had several Sony Mobile phones in the past and have been impressed with the service and timely updates offered. The XTZ will also be rootable, a bootloader that can be unlock and with NFC, HD screen, water resistant, JellyBean 4.1.2, it's a product not to be sniffed at.

My Sony Tablet S (with a cracked screen) now resides with a relative, and my Xperia Tablet S is on eBay set to fetch a good price with all accessories included.

I wouldn't trust it... The website is a marketplace like AliExpress. It offers companies to put products online for sale. There is no feedback system available on the website so if one seller is a scam, people won't be able to put that in their reviews. Also no Google hits on "Shopkomobile LTD" which is the seller.

Pre-Order now?

Hey guys,

This is actually my first post in this forum. I was wondering should I still pre-order this baby or should I wait until 20th of May and buy one from a sony store?

It is just the SONY UK website says that the expected delivery now says 28th May, so I am not sure what I should do!
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Ubichinon:
Its always better to wait.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SWFlyerUK:
I've got mine pre-ordered from my local Sony store.

The website date seems to be pushing back each day. No doubt due to the influx in orders, so people will have to wait.

I ordered mine when delivery said 11-13th April, so looks like it'll be out then.

Of course I will post my full comments when received :)
[Xperia Tablet Z General] skimpychimpy:
I would pre-order now and then after the 12th April keep checking in at your local store and see if they have any stock. They will only take money from your card when the dispatch it so you wont lose any money?

Just a thought...
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SWFlyerUK:
Hi mate,

Have already pre-ordered my device from my local store who has taken £30 prior.

They said they'll call when in stock as my name is the first down on the list (for this store).

They aren't sure yet, but going by what the Sony site had on as pre-order the day it was listed, I'm hoping for around the 12th April.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] skimpychimpy:
Yeah, I did my almost daily check to see what the pre-order date was an it has slipped massively, perhaps because the first batch has totally sold out...hope so anyway and its not that the entire first batch has been delayed. My order update on the Sony website still says 12th April for my pre-order so fingers crossed this doesn't change.

I did see that there were numerous reports yesterday of the tablet going up for pre-order yesterday, all because one site (Clove) have put it up with a May 20th delivery date - they seem to have ignored the fact that it has been available for pre-order via Sony for over a week! Maybe this is the second batch that is due into the UK?
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SWFlyerUK:
I think so mate yer.

Sent XperiaBlog an email who thought the same. First batch had been sold out and the delivery dates for those who where ordering later would have the second batch.

Seeing as though the Xperia Tablet S arrived in the Sony store the day it was released, here's hoping the stores have first batch!!

But then wifi issues random shutdowns happends which not been fixed for month's

These issues exist for 2 years on tablet s1.

Seriously don't be stupid don't buy a xperia tablet z it will be failure just like the other 2

[Xperia Tablet Z General] Zer0K3wL:
Like anyone wanna buy broken tablet, even so i'm not gonna lose my investment just because sony.

i payed 550€ total for my tablet, i expect sony least to keep up with brands like asus and sony and roll out fixes for issues like random shutdowns within 1-2 month issue gets known.

If you think thats to harsch, then you got very low standards.....

the wifi issues aren't even fixed it still disconnect when screen turns off totaly ignoring sleep timer setting.

Well sony just offered to exchange my tablet for tablet z dont known what to say tbh..........

conversation wen't like this we want to exchange your tablet for the new xperia tablet i asked xperia tablet z yes if you wan't you just have to wait until may.

peterT has say'd their will be news and oficial responds soon.

i wonder if they setting up exchange program, i hope they do.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] dknw:
Really Frank? From where or how did you get to manage that deal? I'm going to pressure Sony Portugal ass so much that they will have to do the same. I don't recall reading anything about that by PeterT, he said that?

Greetz mate and congratulations on your tireless efforts
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Zer0K3wL:
Sony communication manager contacted me from europe division bassicly they say'd they got contacted by sony america to get in contact with me.

suspect its some one from really high up from sony.

I just told him probably no point exchanging it for xperia tablet s because the issues are present on every single xperia tablet s.

Don't remember how conversation went exactly i have short term memory loss usualy, but i'm quite sure from what he say'd because he say'd it won't be exchanged until may.

even asked them to exchange my accesory asswell then.

anyway i will hear news next week, i do hope they do replace for xperia tablet z that would be good compensation for like 6 month's having nothing but verry anoying issues.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] dknw:
Nice. It won't be exchanged until May probably because the delivery date of XTZ was delayed till then. In Portugal, it is estimated to happen at the end of May. But how did they get in contact with you? You contacted Sony Netherlands or was it because you simply don't shut up at the Sony Community Forum? Thanks for the info.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Zer0K3wL:
Peter tat probably from American forums high likely
[Xperia Tablet Z General] rdalev:
So........ with Sony's previous two entries, into the tablet market, both having serious issues, Sony's lack of support for these tablets, which is available for all to see at the Sony forums, your basically saying you'll roll the dice and bite on the Z............ Right?

Sony does not have a problem with with marketing and selling good hardware, they just have serious issues backing up and supporting that hardware.

Maybe they're not ready to take on the big boys, in the tablet market, I. E. Samsung, Google and especially Asus, who I tell you from personal experience, has superior support, but still wish you good luck with your Xperia Z............. your probably going to need it!
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Zer0K3wL:
Xperia tablet s = vaio team tablet, tablet z is Sony mobile that's the issue if they give me the chance to exchange for tablet z I'll take it.

I just hope Sony comes with solution for everyone., not just me.

1. No issue so far. I will report back if I experience any crashes. Using Chrome only.

2. WiFi connected just fine to my home WiFi and seems fine. Will also report any issues but so far so good.

3. The back is a matte rubber/leather material which actually feels real good. This is a prototype dev unit so can't really put too much into that. My contact is checking to see if the final build will be like this or glass front and back.

4. Will test more and respond.

5. Same as 4.

Re: [OFFICIAL][NEWS] Sony Xperia Z Tablet - All Details Here

So sound output isn't bad. It isn't outstanding but it's decently loud. The tablet has stereo speakers at the bottom corners of the device when holding it landscape. I wish they were pointed towards the front of the device instead of down. If you hold the tablet in landscape with you hands cupping the corners. And speakers it directs the sound toward you more and sounds much louder. I'm sure there will docks that do this as well.

There are some additional sound options besides X-Loud. I will play around with those some more to see if it changes the sound much.

Can you try play video's like play 10 min video every 10 mins for like 2 hours long, doing this on xperia tablet s will cause video playback corruption and shutdown within like 30-60 mins, 2 hours because the xperia tablet z has a lot more ram so if it has the same issue, it would defiantly take much longer for issue to occur.

To explain whats causing issue, every new video loads into ram never unloads at all, not even task killer fix that issue, in the end tablet will freeze or lag untill it freezes, then the auto shutdown gets triggered.

I have few questions for those people.

1. Are you happy with your purchase?

2. Do you like the price?

3. Is it worth the price?

4. Would you buy it again?

5. Knowing what you know now would you buy a different case?

6. If not this case which one do you recommended?

Is it safe to assume that since the 4.1.1 flash of the Germany 4.11 ROM worked on a Canadian tablet that it would be safe to flash the US ROM on a Canadian tablet as well?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
The N8013 had issues with N8010 ROMs so there's a good change the same would hold true in reverse. Using a ROM from a different region on a Note with the same model number (EG: N8010>N8010) is different than what those in the U.S. were doing (N8010>N8013). I'd expect the same consequences in reverse and that's the device showing "custom" which could lead to DRM issues and the flash counter advancing. I'd wait for a N8010 4.1.2 ROM before doing anything.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] niveks74:
Just flash Redemption Rom, it's 4.1.2 and works great on my (canadian) 8010.

I would expect 8010 to work with 8013 roms, issues with using 8000 (3G) roms on 8010/13 is true (without some tweaks), but can't say I've heard of issues between 8010 and 8013...they are basically the same device (I think 8010 has an IR Blaster and 8013 does not)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
There are quite a few. The device status changing to "custom" vs. "official" for one and the flash counter advancing with no way to reset it other than rooting the device and using Triangle Away. Whether they are physically the same or not the difference in model number causes a stock ROM to be treated as a third party ROM when the model numbers are out of sync. Caveat emptor.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ckavvouras:
Nah I have seen the n8013 and it has an ir blaster as well, I have no idea what the difference between the two really is. I have used flashable roms from both the 8000 and 8013 on my my 8010, I have never tried to push an official one with odin

Looking for opinions on most protective case. Defender seems like the best but the screen protector....and hearing about dust getting in between it and the screen is a little disconcerning. I used a seidio active case on my thunderbolt and loved it, dropped on concrete several times and faired very well. But after recently breaking few months ago and seidio not wanting to replace it like they used to...kind of left a bad taste in my mouth and I dont know if I want to go back to them. That's what she said. Please let me know your opinion. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] droidx2.3.3:
Although I don't have the note2. I have an s3 and I have the otter box defender. I couldn't get the oil slick look to go away so I just took the built in screen protector out. It just pops right out. I have my full screen protector on there anyway to its still fully protected.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mark112089:
Ya that's what im thinking. Just thinking... should I buy it then immediately break the case by ripping out the built in protector. It just feels weird to break something so expensive on purpose lol. Then, does the adhesive that was holding it on cause an issue or removing the protector cause the case rigidinity to be compromised?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Pompsdai:
If you can wait 3-4 weeks the uag http://www.urbanarmorgear.com/products/black-note-ii-case

But if you need it now then go for the otter defender or commuter.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mark112089:
Also, if removing screen protector from defender is there still benefit(s) to using that case versus an otterbox commuter? Being that there is an included screen protector versus built in already.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Rigidity shouldn't be compromised, and from what I read people use hair dryer to heat up the edge of the screen for a glue to soften, thus doing a clean removal of the screen. Glue supposed to roll off easily when its hot.. But you have to keep in mind, Otterbox gives you 1yr warranty if something happens to the case. If something breaks or gets damaged and you need to replace it, they will ask your original case back (I called them up to verify it) and even if you going to glue the screen back - there is a chance they will see it and might use it against you. I personally didn't want to take my chance, so I'm returning my Defender back.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mark112089:
Ya I was worried about breaking/enhancing this case for this reason. What did you end up going with?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mark112089:
Yes I have been watching this closely. Wasnt sure about how tough this case was. Looked more about design from what I could see, but I could be very wrong. I actually voted so they would make that case lol. But....not sure whats up with the holes on the back.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Lord P:
I have two cases for my Note 2: a Seidio Active case, and, as of this morning, an Otterbox Defender. Both have their pros and cons. The Seidio is more comfortable in the hand, and quite a bit slimmer, but the soft rubber inner case peels away from the phone too easily and all sorts of nasty scratchy stuff can get underneath it. It also has a handy little kickstand. The Defender is bloody huge, and for me at least, not as comfortable to hold. But it really does feel bombproof. The inbuilt screen protector isn't wonderful, but it works ok. Just needs an oleophobic coating.

As for which is best, I guess it depends how much you think you're going to throw your phone around :p
