very happy for you !!!!

Brilliant. Where did you make the purchase... And are you uk resident?
(Assuming you bought direct from Sony, hence your device arrived from them, whereas clove/handtek are receiving there devices today to then send out to us today-maybe tomorrow depending upon time of day.)

I am from Germany and i purchase it direct from Sony Germany because clove and handtek didn't take the creditcard.
But there is only the normal headphone.

What headset is included, the MDR-NC31E noise cancelling or other?

German package includes only normal HP without NC

It's the same everywhere...only the "normal" headset is included in the box, no NC-headphone this time.

I've had a bunch of Sony phones and all have come with a protector in the box. Perhaps included to protect the shatter protector though...!
Newer handsets not having a shatter protector perhaps means no in box protector hope my Roxfit comes with the phone

I never had a screen protector in the box of my Sony phones. And I had all the flagship-models since the Acro S.
Maybe this was depending on the location.

Man, you really make me jealous (and drooling)
Good news (for me) is... Sony Germany just confirmed that my set has shipped as well. I could see (according to DHL tracking) it's been shipped from Czech Rep. But wherever it may come from, hope it'll come fast!
On the content: No surprises and nothing to complain over here since this was clear to see while placing the order.

My experience was quite the opposite--they're an absolute nightmare to install. I ended up trashing mine and went with the usual two peels one.

In these cases, you should go up to the guy and shout at his face, and tell him its unacceptable. Thats what i would do when i first see a problem, and they would normally fix it.

That may well make me feel a bit better but would then give them a valid reason not to deal with the situation, whereas right now they are in the wrong and the support doesn't have an excuse for being so utterly useless.

I would say the left hand phone is more blue tint, than white, so you have 2 phones, at either end of the "white" scale, with neither showing "white".

flip covers with magnets,

hi guys and gals, i did a few tests with flip covers that have magnets built in, i found that when you have a flip cover with magnets, it will give some performance issue and possable battery drainage. IMO velcro i think is the way to go. have ago with a benchmark test to see the diffirance with and without the cover only if it has magnets bult in, and please dont forget to hit the thanks button if this info is any help to you, regards joe.
You tested it with benchmark, I had to laugh at that

no i noticed it when i ran a test and i had an overheat issue so i removed my cover to let it cool down. i put the cover near my other phone.and noticed it was a bit laggy when it was near my cover. so i did a few tests with and without the cover and i can say it was my cover.
i was only saying about the benchmark as a ref: so people like youself can see for yourself's the differance.

Thank you both for being able to stay within the XDA rules, in your discussions.
I have cleaned the thread would ask that the talk return to the OP's topic.
The genuine charging dock is magnetic and has no impact on my device and I doubt Sony would use that method if it caused problems.

i have to say my cover is not a sony genuine cover .sorry i should have said that in the first place. but it does have an effect on the my device. regards man.
Only way to know would be to find out what type of magnet is in your case then contact Sony to see what they say about the z1's ability to resist magnetic interference.

The Reason for the delay

So I wonder, what's causing this delay in the Z2 launch? Which component is in shortage? Don't you all wonder the same? I'm sure if all of us discuss we can get to the bottom of this.
You can take a good look at all the internal here.
Points to be considered :
1. Its not Qualcomm.
2. Each and every part except for the IPS panel, 3GB RAM and 16GB internal memory is manufactured by Sony. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
3. It cannot be the internal storage as Galaxy S5 ships with the same.
So it has to be either the 3GB RAM from Samsung, probably that's why they didn't include it in their own flagship. Or the IPS panel. To me, it seems more of the RAM issue. What about you guys?
That's already said - it's IPS panel.
Try to search a bit, there was article about that with a link to source.

You'll have to Google it...
Can't remember where I saw that but I know it was on XDA.
But it was said that it'll be postponed but or limited edition will be released with panels they have or they will have.
So I guess it's not problem in manufacturing but most likely it's just factory capacity problem...
There was some rumors Sony won't stayed on IPS for Z2 because of that but I don't believe in that...

Hahaha Well that's certainly true too.
Now I just hope Sony doesn't release a Z3 in August. -_-
Z2X with a snapdragon 805 and 2k display would be better! - Wikipedia suggests it'll be a Z2X.
Well mine is still slated for 15th April so no delays on mine from Tele2 Sweden which should be considered a major partner to Sony
