Few Doubts about my new Xperia Z3

[kchinnavigneshr]

Hello everyone, I've bought Xperia Z3 couple of days ago. As an old Xperia User, I have few concerns.

1. I currently have KitKat 4.4.4 ( 23.0.1.A5.77). I got a notification for new update of Lollipop. Should I update? or wait few more days to get stable version. My major priority is stable battery backup. How is the battery backup after Lollipop update? 

2. I'm very much concerned about micro USB port flap. As Z3 is an Waterproof device, doesn't frequent access to flap loosen it and make phone vulnerable to water? I worried because my Xperia S 's flap got worn out in a year.

3. I've seen few blogs complaining about issues in first production batches like ones manufactured around September 2014 having few camera issues ( Pink Spot) and internal heating issues , which Sony fixed  them in later production batches. Is that true? Because I can see that my device is manufactured in September 2014.

4. My screen looks cold. I know that I can tweak White Balance. Any suggestions of setting it to be right? I don't know good RGB values.

5. I purchased my phone in India and this phone has too many unwanted bloatware( Like- Sony LIV, Sony LIV Sports, LINE etc...) they consume too much resources, any way to uninstal them?

6. Is it true that new battery takes time to perform in its full potential? What is the average On Screen time you guys are getting?

I know that those are too many question but please try to be polite. I'd be glad if I get good answers.

Thank You.

The faster way to charge the phone is 

Phone off + Wall charger 

Phone on + Wall charger (ariplane mode)

Phone on + Wall charger

Phone off + computer (this will vary depending on the output of the usb port)

Phone on + computer (this will vary depending on the output of the usb port) ariplane mode

Phone on + computer (this will vary depending on the output of the usb port)

Phone off + magnetic charger 

Phone on + magnetic charger (airplane mode)

Phone on + magnetic charger

The magnetic cable could charge your phone faster than a micro USB port connected to a computer, but this depends entirely on the USB port on the computer.

Yes of course.... But the WCR is a good accessory you know. Well just rest it on that plate and it will charge and well..... I guess it's not That slow too.

Thank You, @JoelRaj. 

Can't find the WCR accessory you suggested in my country, but just ordered a Magnetic Charging cable called DCU28.

As you are concerned about the flaps

Hello, This was my phone's battery performance while on KitKat 4.4.4. I've tested it without mobile network. Wifi was continuously On. 

• On Screen Time was 6h 37mins( Adaptive brightness ON and set to low)
• Used Camera for 15 mins
• Total Standby time was 2days 17hrs

Is this normal? I've had screenshots but were deleted while making clean install of Lollipop. 

Testing Lollipop performance.

You have to wait a week or so for the phone to learn and give you a better estimate
