| ![]() I'm surprised! I bought it from flipkart for 25 about 2 weeks back. Regarding battery life you can plan on another battery pack or maybe the sony dock. by the way its fun with this waterproof thing. the first thing I did when I got the phone was dip it in the bucket and operate it. Hahaha. Pagalpanti bhi zaroori hai. Though now im very happy with the phone. the standby battery depletion is particularly very low which is great as it is quite a lot with the s3. And this is with 3G continuously on with background syncing of all apps in ON mode. There is also a stamina mode which tremendously increases the battery life. So all in all moving from a blackberry would be good. |

And regarding the VGA front camera? Is it a major drawback? Last edited by neerajpv87 : 13th October 2013 at 12:45. | |

| ![]() Well I haven't even checked that as I dont use video calling etc. For me phone is strictly for calling, emails, texts, whatsapp, and internet. infact I've been replying on tbhp using the phone and that too using the full tbhp site and not the tbhp app. |

The advantage with nexus over ZR would be the tremendous amount of developer base and guaranteed future updates. Just look at xda and check for ZR developer options, you won't find many custom ROM's | |

| ![]() When I bought the ZR it had 4.1.2. As soon as I turned on the 3G it notified that an update is available. in 15 minutes. Voila 4.2.2!! |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Guys today I unrooted my friends Xperia M. Everything went smoothly. But when I restarted the phone it got stuck in bootloop. I could not understand what happened. Then after sometime I pressed the volume up button and power button together. And voila the Phone booted. What could have been the issue? Please tell. |

Any idea about the India launch? I think it'll take some time for it to be available here, and I don't have any contacts in US to procure it for me. And to add to that, I'm not a fan of big phones ( as in screen size > 4.5 inch), so a 4.5 inch ZR would suffice. Patience is not one of my virtues, so waiting is out of the question ! ![]() |

This may not be the best thing really. I have a Nexus S and frankly the phone became very slow and laggy after the jellybean update. On one hand its great to get updates first but sometimes you feel you're better off without those updates. |

Thanks a lot. So that means it was a minor problem and not a serious issue. But could you tell me how to clear cache after unrooting. I actually dont know how to enter stock recovery in xperia M. Could you please help? |

I am using a Galaxy Nexus. Fantastic experience over all for the past 1 year. I have skipped the Nexus 4. I will upgrade to Nexus 5. Nexus user experience and the quick updates are any day better ! The developer base is amazing. The only downsides are not so great camera and no expandable memory. I hope they fix the camera in the Nexus 5. | |

Since it has booted up fine, you need not worry. I can suggest you to reboot it once again and see if it comes up fine without any errors. | |

The camera in the Nexus 5 isn't expected to be like the one on the LG G2. | |

The highlight of any nexus phone is the developer community because of which whenever you get the latest update, there are many custom ROM's based on it which work like charm. In any case, it depends on your priorities. I was recommending the N5 over the ZR | |
