Z2 not waterproof

Hi there,

I use my Z2 for photo taking during swimming. the photo got into water. i send to repair and repair take about 1 week.

after a month, i try again.it got into water again. so sad... spend so much money to buy a useless phone and it not waterproof as it stated. I ask for 1 to 1 exchange due to the phone had got into 2 times. but Sony said they cannot due to company policy. so sad. i don't trust sony anymore. As i support them since Z started. but i did try for my Z and Z1. cannot buy really cannot buy......

Regards,

Lifeiscrazy

Why did you try it a second time? 

I won't let mine anywhere near water!

he first time it happened, you should've asked for the 1 for 1 exchange. That way you should get a newer device that has the design flaw fixed. But you ended up repairing it.

So what exactly is the design flaw????? The reason it was repaired & not exchanged seems to be up to whatever Carrier/Country you live in....from what i have read on the numerous messages on the Forum it does seem to be Sony who insist on a repair being carried out tho some Carriers much to their credit exchange the phone.....and argueing/demanding wont really get you far Face_with_rolling_Eyes

As part of the repair the Z2 should have been vacuum tested.....if it was & there is documentation to say what repair was carried out & if it was vacuum tested then just get back to whover you dealt with or if it was not vacuum tested ask why not Smiling_Face_with_Horns

Also  to ask why he let it near water again could be a valid point but at the end of the day the Z2 is supposed to be waterproof afterall.......:smileysmileythumbsup:

Same problem here. My first Z2 was not waterproof.

I got it repaired and so now it is. Sony Centre do not take into your consideration of one to one exchange no matter the reason. We don't have a say and thats the truth.
