Information from the website: "... Both SIM-card is constantly active and ready to receive calls in parallel ...". Does this mean that the 2 (!) radio? Because if 1, which has the parallel operation of two SIM-cards nafig?)



Rep: (2024)
* Abush, as well as to the younger model - cross forwarding. It works only one SIM, the second will not be available and a second call via the call forwarding.

By the way like 5 inches, not 5.2, as indicated on the off site and stated in the review of the Sony representative, but it is generally not an indicator, wait a working link to the White paper

I subscribe to this thread. Will follow, probably I take him instead of honor 6

It raises questions include not quite clear engineering (or design?) Solution.
The front panel can be seen the two mesh - top and bottom. Top - of course, the earpiece. So the question is: what's under the mesh bottom, when you consider the fact that the calling speaker is located on the bottom, and there is also a hole-in microphone? The fact that this is not a second opening for the exit of sound - this is obvious (it is too far from the ring at the end of the speaker).
Or all of the same sound at the same time coming from two speakers - the bottom of the front and face?


I think that under the display that polosochka- is the main microphone for talking, and a small hole on the left - this is for shumopadavleniya (exactly as on the top). And another hole in the bottom of the right - is a music speaker. That's the whole otgadka: rolleyes:

I do not think. Microphone for noise reduction in this model is located on the upper end. Yes, and do not have a second microphone so close to the ground, they are bred as far as possible from each other.


for shumopadavleniya in the flagship, and many are already used two microphone only the top and bottom. + Location is usually on such rapolozhenii since - and where even further? and because of the phone.

In a video review it said, it's just a perversion of design for symmetry.
Well, the personal opinion of the TTX. The Sony stamina with a voracity everything should be ok, but all the same, if the sacrifice of thick slapped battery with magic 3k +, it would be a bomb. And so, given the fact that a segment of the 5 "HD is getting crowded, and Sony's price tag has never been humane, much success phone use will not.

I am also inclined to this view, the other (practical) meaning this kind of decision can not be seen. We have to wait in-depth reviews, all became clear.

I am sure that he will find a buyer: 2 simochny midrange unit with a normal design and a relatively reasonable price from a reputable brand - a rare phenomenon.

Worthy successor M2 Aqua and Har-kam surpasses much.
However, the indicator is usually less noticeable than the M2, and the speakers neponyatki.
Decorative lower front or did not? I want to buy this device. However, the price :-)
The euro will fall, hope



Rep: (40)
So far collected on the network, including of foreign resources, information filling cap, I took the liberty to make some preliminary conclusions in absentia.
1) Display . - Matrix of course not Triluminos, and the usual IPS c air gap. HD resolution - not a lot, but the minimum is sufficient for 5 "(according to experts, the pixels at a value of 300 ppi is almost indistinguishable look, while a subject - 294 ppi). However, the presence of an air layer in combination with at the highest resolution can lead . to a certain blurring of fine lines and small fonts (IMHO) However, all obzorschiki in one voice say in general good quality of the display - brightness, color reproduction and viewing angles.
2) Screen protection . - Immediately we can say that it was not a gorilla (as far as I know, Sony did not put on their smarts gorilla, even on flagships). But the glass is tempered, scratch-resistant, probably some kind of mineral alloy. I think that it is better to paste over the film or glass.
3) Housing . - Fully plastic, molded. On some resources (in particular Nothing Wired ) States that the back cover - glass. But it is doubtful, yet transparent plastic soon. Some fotah noticeably present on the cover film factory, or the conveying felts protective constant. Admire subject is better to pack in the bumper, and even better - in the case or cover, so as not to pokotsali too fast.
4) Iron . - It is clear, needs no comment. Only wanted to note that the Adreno 405 - is the same that the Adreno 305, but with additional power-saving technologies. 2 gig operatives - a symbolic nod to the upcoming Lollipop.
5) Autonomy . - Sure like to Accum was a little more, at least 2600-2700 max. But considering that iron is not a subject most energy-intensive (and screen HD), proprietary energy saving technologies sonkovskie really effective, and the optimization is generally excellent - in active mode (without heavy games) minimum hours of work subject must draw accurately.
Shl I want to emphasize here that all the above - only preliminary personal assumptions made on the basis of the correspondence information on a subject from a variety of sources, and can be very different from reality.

Here is the account of the presence of an air layer doubt. How many reviews do not look, when the phone is always twist the picture on the display as if on the defensive glass. Well, at least I compare with your SP, which this layer available.



Rep: (2024)
* Atomsck, I agree, the display color is the same as in the comparison z3. Maybe all the same it is OGS or G + G
