Well .. there's another explanation why I went for white. Coz front is black and back is white. It's kind of mixture of 2. Remember there's a Chinese symbol for "Yin and Yang" in Kung Fu Panda movie. The white color is kind of same as that :D

That esato guy today booked a white Z2 at Sony store, Cochin, Kerala.

And Sony store guys have again confirmed that NC headphones are coming in the box ! But only for 1st lot . . .

Although take it with a pinch of salt as they might be knowingly saying this to trap the customer into buying on very 1st day !
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Maybe they are trying to sell more. Coz officially there will be no NC headset in the box.

Sony.Co.in #Z2 card support upto 64gb and sonymobile.com/in #Z2 support upto 128gb.

Come on Sony don't make such kind of silly mistakes.
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
Well technically that does not matter whether they say it's 64 or 128GB. Currently it is 128GB because SanDisk has a card and if they announce 256GB then also Z2 is going to support that. Every manufacturer generally list the one that is currently available maximum capacity. Because supporting higher storage space is not hardware specific.

Is anyone managing to get the phone on the 12th itself? The Sony Centres in Bangalore are clueless. Indiranagar and Infantry Road branches still say that they will have stock only in a week's time.

they are already shivering what Z3 holds behind the curtain and being ready to get slashed and diced again by SONY
[Xperia Z2 General] badelemental:
IMO Samsung destroyed Galaxy S premium brand value by not concentrating on limited devices. They just keep on releasing crappy Galaxy S variants that no one gives a damn about. Even they don't focus on software stability, all they throw is features that you will hardly ever use. I had a Galaxy S4 and that thing was so damn slow that I could not keep it much longer. And I decided not to buy anything from Samsung anymore.

This time Sony had a good chance but due to delay so went for M8 and few for S5. IMO Z2 is the best for the time being. Well LG G3 might give some competition.

The only thing that I didn't like about Z2 is the "long press home to go to what's new and google now". I think What's new features does not deserve a permanent place in shortcuts. It should have been only Google Now. Anyways once the device is out I hope there will be some MOD to remove it. It will fell more stock like.

Are Noise Cancelling Earphones coming in box?

DNC is the signature feature of Z2 and Sony has already included DNC headphones in box in US nd UK.Do you think they will come to Indian users in box or will Sony sell them separately to make extra 3-5k?

My friend enquired at Sony Center in Chandigarh today and they were unaware of those given free.However I am still optimistic as usually companies dont include earphones in list of Special Offer things.

Won't it be silly and unfair on part of Sony to give us an unnecessary Smartband instead of great earphones.

Xperia Z2

I had Xperia Z1 and sold it to get Z2. Could not wait when Z2 was announced. Z1 was great but display was kind of a let down. Sony should launch the LTE version as Airtel is now pushing 4G in big cities. Good to have a futureproof phone. Also price should be 45K, they need to price it lower than S5 to sell a lot more. But those who are into mobile tech, I doubt anyone would go for that cheap looking S5 with ****ty processor which does not get any developer attention.
