Got one a few weeks ago and an amazing phone. Loving it when compared to my blackberry and previous Iphone4

The ability to take multiple photos with one press is awesome.

Anyone got any tips on getting the best out of the camera? Had a fiddle with it but it is mainly set as it came out of the box - Not even tried using it on manual but if anyone has some thoughts on where I can find out more about getting the most from it let me know.

Cheers

I hate to derail the thread with the first post, but how was it moving from the iPhone 4 to the Z1? Any apps you miss?

I thought I'd miss the iphone but in terms of apps I can't think of one I miss. I thought the size of the phone would be a problem but I've got used to it and now using the Iphone4 (my daughters got it now) I find it too small.

The only issue I have is the compatibility with the car stereo - but this is minor and I've already got used to it and worked around it - bascially use bluetooth connection and queue up what I want.

I do find the Walkman app has so much better sound quality than the Apple version (and also Google Play too)

It's super fast too. GPS location, app loading and all sorts of others.

Like my z1 as well, charging port cover a bit of a pain so plan to buy a dock soon.

Re photography, have found camera to be good I'm low light but a bit frustrated by start up time considering who quickly you can be taking picture on an iPhone 5

Loving mine too after switch from iPhone, can echo the comments above! Have found the camera when zooming to not be the greatest but otherwise very happy with it, and got a PS4 as part of the package 😉

You don't necessarily need the dock to use the charging port, you can buy a cable with a connector which is compatible with the charging port.

I've got the dock but need a cover to work with it. Makes it so much easier to charge than using the other method.
