Sony has made the Xperia Z2 available online for $759.00 + $9.95 delivery. As this is directly from Sony Australia, it would be safe to say this is local stock and beats the price of Mobicity ($899.95) and Kogan ($859), both which are grey imports.

  So why is this a valid neg vote?

    it's retail price set by Sony, so it shouldn't even be a bargain.

      If the competition is $859-899 and this is $769 then in my book it's a bargain, retail or not.
      
      Add to that, this is local stock vs grey import carrying additional advantages.
      
      Can you match or beat this price elsewhere? If not, you have your answer.

    I am not interested in this phone but I am interested in this discussion on how RRP is still considered a bargain. So are others selling this phone way above RRP to make this RRP deal a bargain?

  Also, just for reference..
  
  It seems the Australian version of the phone (from sony.com.au) only includes the standard headset.
  
  Mine was purchased overseas and as part of the package, it includes the premium noise cancelling earphones as well as the charging dock. These two alone are worth $100+.
  
  The ones from Mobicity/Kogan/etc. may be include the extracts, hence the price difference.
  - highdealer on 01/05/2014 - 22:49
    
    What's in the box
    Sony Xperia Z2 4G LTE D6503 (16GB, Black)
    USB Cable
    Charger
    Generic AU Plug Adapter
    
    Kogan one doesn't even seem to include headset.
    
    The Mobicity one does come with a portable speaker and noise cancelling earphone, but they cost $150 more. I dont value the portable speaker and earphone to be $150. The speaker is more like $80 and the earphone $50.
  - lplau on 02/05/2014 - 10:38
    
    Remember to do the maths though, if you were to buy from Sony Australia then purchase the extras.
    
    It would come close to the grey stock, but you get Sony Australia warranty for all items, not some generic overseas warranty.

Does the Z2 have that feature where you can charge it by sitting it on a charging pad? (whatever that's called!?)
- ProspectiveDarkness on 01/05/2014 - 16:55
  
  Wireless charging. And no, the Z2 doesn't have it inbuilt.
  - No on 01/05/2014 - 17:10
    
    Thats strange, Sony is releasing a car headunit that has a clamp for a phone which charges the phone wirelessly (if the phone supports it). I was going to buy it when it comes out and a sony phone to use with it:
    
    http://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/in-car-receivers-players/x…
    
    Which flagship devices do come with wireless charging?
    - ProspectiveDarkness on 01/05/2014 - 17:32
      
      +3
      
      Apparently they're releasing some accessories (like the power cradle case things from years ago) that allow for wireless charging. Source. Not sure if they'll be worthwhile, however
      
      As for other flagships:
      
      The Galaxy S5 doesn't have it inbuilt. Requires a specific case to allow it. Same with the Note 3 and Galaxy S4.
      
      Neither the HTC One M7 or M8 have it. A cursory search doesn't yield much in the way of aftermarket accessories to allow for it.
      
      The Nexus 5 and Nexus 4 do have it inbuilt.
      
      LG G2 doesn't (Verizon exclusive feature… ugh) have it inbuilt.
      
      iPhone 5S doesn't have it.
      
      Moto X doesn't have it.
      
      Most, if not all, of Nokia high end Windows Phones have it inbuilt, I think.
      
      So basically, Nexus 5 or Nokia WP for inbuilt. With Samsung's it's not so bad, as you're just replacing the back cover, but with any other aftermarket options, they'll have to be full on cases to accommodate the charging coil.

      Doesn't look like that car cradle has wireless charging (aka Qi) either. It just says NFC which would be for hands free and music. Maybe it charges the Z2 using its magnetic side charge port (http://cdn.pocket-lint.com/r/s/728x/assets/images/phpn6vtch.…) when you clamp it into place?
      
      Edit - Yup this video says it uses the magnetic side charge port http://youtu.be/o1pFq4-jc7c
    - No on 02/05/2014 - 12:07
      
      Thanks for the info. That makes it a bit crap then since it will only charge a sony phone, any other phone would need to have a cable plugged in.
- johnjones8 on 01/05/2014 - 18:10
  
  Sony does have an official desktop magnetic charging dock. I think only the Taiwanese version comes with it as standard (along with the noise canceling earphones).
- PVA on 01/05/2014 - 20:26
  
  It has a small dock that has a magnetic charger port thingy. The phone has this matching charging port on the side just like the z1 and my original z. They work great, not only charge but you can program actions for what the phone should do. Say something like turn alarm on, display photos, start music play tc.
  Connects a bit like and apple mag charge on a MacBook, just pop it on and it connects no hassle of lining it up or plugging a micro USB in.

Consider that Sony is starting 6 month release cycles. If you resell your phone to fund the newest model, in two years time your Z2 will be four generations old.
- xyron on 01/05/2014 - 17:45
  
  I doubt that 6 monthly upgrade cycles for Sony will be a trend. Since the Xperia S, Sony have always been a bit out of kilter vis-a-vis its major competitors (Samsung, HTC) when releasing its new flagships.
  
  The Xperia S came out ~6 months before the Galaxy S3 and HTC One X, and suffered from an older chipset and was stuck on android 2.3 for ages.
  
  The Xperia Z came out ~6 months before the Galaxy S4 and HTC One, and suffered from a poorer screen and, again, an old-gen chipset.
  
  The Xperia Z1 came out ~6 months before the Galaxy S5 and HTC One (Mate), although to be honest, it isn't lacking in any significant way compared to those two models (although it again has an older chipset than both).
  
  The Xperia Z2 now aligns perfectly against the Galaxy S5 and HTC One (Mate). I suspect we will see Sony revert to 12 month upgrade cycles from here on in. Their 'experiment' with releasing flagships 6 months before its major competitors has proven to be more detrimental than beneficial (since buyers of flagship phones always want "the very best" available).

      http://whrl.pl/RdXAtd
      Ironically, he has S5 as his whirlpool quip.
      Not sure where he got the $672 Telstra Outright Price, especially when he himself says there are two of his workmates who picked it up for $869
      http://whrl.pl/RdXCdG
      Talked to some guy behind the counter @Telstra shop in Sydney CBD who says it will be likely around $900/similar to their Samsung S5 offering.
      
      I am seriously doubting the Telstra $672 outright price, can't find a solid source but rumours which have lead all to "CrazyCS", now I'm not accusing of blatant lying, but be cautious until there is a verifiable source which can confirm the "Telstra $672 outright pricing"
      
      He seems to be fairly into phones though, claims of using all past Xperia phones and Galaxys

      I think the 672 price i posted earlier could be ex gst which is typical with business pricing so it would end up being a $20 difference if this is the case i will get from sony direct
      
      Check that out as well, that would bring it up to $739.20 incl GST.

      Just checking out sources mate, the stupid way to do an assignment is to copy and paste from wikipedia, the smart way is to not read the wikipedia article (you can if you're lazy, or as a summary), but to use the sources, read them for yourself and verify correct information before paraphrasing possibly incorrect information and getting destroyed for it.

      You spoke to someone at a Telstra store…. they dont get their staff info kits till next week so they wouldnt know much.
      
      The dude seemed to be very enthusiastic about the Z2.
      
      In regards to business pricing and the claim of ex-gst, from my industry's direct-from-vendor purchases for staff, it seems they also don't include GST in the quoted price for internal purchases.

      The business pricing for the Z1 was revealed to be $696RRP from Telstra and this eventuated to be the retail price including GST.

My only complaint/argument is that the Z3 is due out in 3 months because Sony delayed the release of this phone in Australia by 3 months.

  No need to wait that long, they already announced the Z3 is launching this month.

    They will delay the actual Aussie release yet again anyway.

  you need to put your name down and do a survey. Then you have to wait for them to invite you. Took me about a month or so to be accepted but it depends on when they to intakes

  Not exactly a reliable source for those specs. I'll believe it when Android Police and the like report on it. In any case:
  
  3GB of RAM is already above average, and I very much doubt the vast majority of people would see the difference between that and 4GB. Diminishing returns and whatnot.
  
  Octacore seems unlikely. The quad core Snapdragon 805 is far more suitable and will still be setting the bar for performance - completely regardless of the core count.
  
  Sony's displays use the Triluminos branding. 'True IPS' has no precedence.
  
  We have no strong evidence to suggest that an embedded finger print sensor is viable, let alone ready for prime time.
  
  This seems more like a wishlist written by someone with the 'higher numbers = better' mentality.

  You could always wait until z3 is out then buy z2. Maybe better price but it will not be the latest greatest as always. Then it will be z4 and so on…

    The only dealbreaker is the size of the screen-5.7 is really too big, don't give me wrong, I am a long time user of Samsung Note, from 1-3, so I am happy with the size(even I wish the note 3 screen could be a bit conservative ).
    
    Other specs are just awesome & amazing !

    So I'm going from the Z3 with 8 cores to Z4 with 6 cores? Is Sony retarded? As soon as a deal for the Z4 comes out I'm downvoting it.
