Issues with Z3+

First of all, shame on you for removing my post on the battery problem I faced on Z3+

Issues I face with Z3+ that made me regret buying it:

1- battery drains so fast compares to Z3, even battery has a slight drop in capacity but I doubt it stays for even a whole day. It goes down up to 2-3% in 1 min even less time.

2- very annoying overheating problem even when browsing the net.

3- device does not stand for 75% of the day if LTE is on.

4- Display in Z3 is better in low light.

5- Camera shuts down in 1 min even 4k is not used.

6- problem in notification and ringing sound is back, I do not hear my phone if it rings or I get a message even the volume is up to the max. I do not know that I get a message if the notification light is not on.

7- phone is not slim at all, it is same thickness as Z3.. IPhone 6 should be 6.9 mm, when I put it next to Z3+ it is much slimmer than Z3+. When I put Z3+ next to Z3 it is same exact thickness..

Actually I see it a downgrade of Z3.. It is a minus more than a plus..

At least solve the heat, notification and battery drain probs pleasee!!

Hi All,

z3+ dual

Has anyone had an issue charging in car?

Due to the fact that battery drain is horrible on the phone, I have had to resort to charging anywhere I can.

While plugged to charge in car, it barely charges if you don't use it and discharges if you make a call or have screen on or stream music via bluetooth.

It is the same ports (I have two USB and one cigarette lighter US) I've use for my Iphone 6 and I have tried several cables.

Very disappointing battery life (Iphone 6 is better, that says a lot).

It seems like with the heat issues, there is a definite design defect with the phone. I suspect that the Z5 with dual heat pipes wil

not have the same issue. Z3+ owners are guinea pigs.

Class action?

@naveeneldose Go to settings-scroll down to last section in settings. Do you have developer options enabled?
