Z2 Preorder

Guys I went to Sony Center a while back and could not resist pre-ordering it. Damn this curiosity of mine. I was sure that I can wait but still failed again.

I had one old Sony Mini Pro laying around and it was nearing it's end of life so exchanged it for 2K. So total price for the device is 47K including SmartBand. They said it will be available on 15th. Fingers crossed :cowboy:

Sayonara SD805 and G3 :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z2 General] kartoonz:
so, then i will be waiting until june end perhaps... lets see what lg g3 has to offer.... disappointing day....:(
[Xperia Z2 General] kartoonz:
congrats man.... even i have a sony live walkman phone lying... maybe time to say goodbye to it.. but i will still wait till june...
[Xperia Z2 General] amankapoor4:
no 4G?
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Yup I would also recommend to wait too. But could help myself.

---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 PM ----------

It is 3G version
[Xperia Z2 General] lathiwala_99:
+1

I also have couple of old phones lying around.

Anyone has an idea what is the max amount that sony would be giving as an exchange offer?
[Xperia Z2 General] amankapoor4:
Lol, not interested. After my Z died i was thinking if i should bite the bullet with Z2, it is totally not worth it without 4G, just like the stupid S5
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
It depends. You can take your phone to Sony Center and if they are offering any exchange offer then they will give you exact information. But expect it to be less. Anyways if phone is nearing it's life cycle then it is better to save some money that way.

Do we get the cover and band with z2 on Flipkart?

[Xperia Z2 General] rkial:
It'll be in stores before Flipkart delivers and flipkart isnt offering any discounts. You'll probably get it for less by walking into any store.

Did you have some flipkart vouchers lying around unused?
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Bro, you could have ordered from Sony Center. They are taking 1K less. Anyways I know all about excitement and how you just could not help it ... haha.

Here I have to wait till 15th to get it. And you know what Z2 test devices are supplied to Sony Center guys well before the announcement. One of the staff told me this. They were unaware of price and accessory details but they did test the device.

PS : I also went with white one :)
[Xperia Z2 General] nizam1:
Why does Flipkart make no mention of the SmartBand ? Is the Smart Band freebie only for Sony Centre pre orders?
[Xperia Z2 General] lathiwala_99:
So would be taking 3 devices to them and get the best price...!! Have to wait till saturday..
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Yeah ... get the one replaced which gives you more money in return so that overall cost comes down. I also asked if they can keep the SmartBand and cut some price but they refused. Even Sony guy told me that SmartBand is only available for short period of time. I exactly don't know how long they are going to offer SmartBand for free.

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 PM ----------

It's not mentioned but I think it should be there. Last time I got Z1 from local store but Flipkart also offered same freebies.

Some info -

1. Total Xperia Z2 units arrived in India are 9,420.

2. Xperia Z2 price 20,621 INR(excluding VAT and Tax)

3. Price after applying Tax and VAT = 35k !

4. What Sony is selling for - 50k !

So who bought today?

Any one s5 user bought?

How's it? :)
[Xperia Z2 General] Abhi Dahiya:
I'm telling the import price of z2's from China that Sony India gets.

HTC one total units arrived in India(all Taiwan manufactured) are around 3,300.

Import price for HTC one M8 is 37k(excluding VAT and Tax) !!! Still HTC has managed to sell it for 49k.

If Sony wanted they could have easily sold Z2 even as less as 42-43k !
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Well I pre-ordered it. Sony Center is taking pre-orders now at Rs 48990. Here in Hyderabad the stock will be available on 15th.

That means it is better to wait and see SONY slash price of Z2 which I think is going to happen soon going by Sony's track record.
[Xperia Z2 General] paras:
They won't slash price coz of the specs and build quality.Sony are even giving freebies which no other mobile maker did.

Sent From My Nexus 5 Stock 4.4.2
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Well to be honest you should see price drop of around 2K in two three weeks. When I bought my Z1 it was 44K but after 3 weeks it came down to 42K. So I think this will happen to Z2 also. As per SmartBand I don't know if they will keep offering it as in official press release they said that it is a limited time offer and Sony Center guy also said the same. So don't exactly know if this is true.
[Xperia Z2 General] paras:
They have given pretty good deal on the phone with freebies I feel.

Sent From My Nexus 5 Stock 4.4.2

You can say that. But I would have liked if they kept the freebies as optional and priced the device at 45K.

Can't happen we have to be realistic.The problem is htc one is at that price without any freebies.Sony are giving freebies with 10k which u can always sell ur trade I feel.

Sent From My Nexus 5 Stock 4.4.2
[Xperia Z2 General] pandurang_m:
The point is the price will fall but not drastically. Now all major phones are released and Z2 was the last one, Sony need not worry about any other phones as of now. If something is coming big then Z2, we can see a heavy price drop ?
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Yeah that's true. Compared to Samsung and HTC, Sony always bundles some freebies with their flagship yet price it same as others. Anyways I think I am gonna keep those freebies and try the band for tracking fitness while playing badminton. Though I won't be wearing it always :P

Yeah, I appreciate Samsung in this matter. No matter how many problems they have, they will release their products in India.

You seem to be like Sony phone owner. I never owned a Song phones [Erricson excluded]. So how is the overall service experience? Did you ever face an issue with hardware malfunctioning and other problems? I change smartphone once in 2-3 year, I am a very careful when it comes to using the phone and maintaining it. So will it come for that long run [Keeping it always under cases and screen protected].

Z1 was tough enough, could sustain 2-3 drops. I would appreciate if you help with choosing a case too, I don't like to keep that power button covered in :)
[Xperia Z2 General] :
Currently i own xperia z1.. never had any issues.. i am upgrading it for IPS Display, 4k recording, 3gb ram and timeshift video.. i dont have any problem with this device... Its working like a beast.. i am disappointed by their late software updates.. in my point of view sony is best... my xperia z1 is just 3 months old, i have purchased it on january 2014, again i am saying i am upgrading it for better display more ram and 4k recording
[Xperia Z2 General] kannanX10:

I'm a huge Sony fan, but it seems like I might go the HTC way if it comes earlier and at a good price. I've been waiting since ages now. :/
[Xperia Z2 General] kannanX10:
As of now definitely M8 will launch before z2 in india with a price tag around 53k...........u can also import m8 which might cost u less(inc customs) than indian M8
[Xperia Z2 General] KyleSforza:
53k for that cam is way too much. :/

I was thinking more of 42k. It should be priced lower than the Z2 else it won't sell.
[Xperia Z2 General] kannanX10:
usually htc overprice their devices in india........my advice would be to wait until z2 launches in india and i do tried indian s5 which is still somewhat laggy as s4 and not smooth as z1...........
[Xperia Z2 General] KyleSforza:
Yeah I know, Only an idiot would purchase a S5 in India with that "Adonis Prime" CPU. -_-

Only options are Z2 and M8, M8's camera, display and battery are what holds me back(I care more about hardware specs than software side, cause SW updates can improve the device further if HW is great). Those flaws are acceptable if M8 is priced sensibly.
[Xperia Z2 General] kannanX10:
M8 does have a excellent display but reg ultrapixels its not even average in preserving image details
