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!!

How long can you guys record
Full HD videos
AR EFFECTS time
Timeshift Video duration

I am not happy with Sony customer service. They fix it bit I don't see what have they fixed
Still have issues
HD video 15 mins max( not 4k not 60 fps)

Average 8 minutes

AR EFFECTS less than 1 minute
Then I have to let it cool down

slow motion less than a minute
Average 20 seconds, yes 20 seconds

What's the point Sony selling a phone like this
They should stop making phones

I have done PCC repair
Reset
Nothing good

Hi I have an Xperia Z3+ and only issue I have with it is that it overheats alot. I wrote to support sony team they directed me to repair Software with computer connection by sony companion but it gave error as it can not reach to sony servers.

Can anybody lead me to fix this issue?

I just got the phone and my only issue is that the camera app crashes because it gets too hot.

Normal photos and Full HD video record doesnt have this issues but only the more power hungry apps like 4k and Vr. After minutes of use the app crashes making it complety useless. When the phone is cool i can use the high power camera apps for 2-3 minutes. In normal use the phone is great but its sad to see that the good camera in this phone has so many issues....

Got my phone replaced by CPW,I was really upset with the service provided by Sony. This seems to be better than the first one. Does not heat up so bad
AR EFFECTS work around 2 minutes now
Slow motion did 3 minutes
Seems much better but don't know how long, I usually don't use any games or 3Rd party junk on my phone
So I expect it to run smoothly
May be my previous one was an early release product or whatever but will wait and see

Seems like if you set ultra stamina mode on you can record 4k longer time and the phone doesnt feel that hot either.

Do a hard reset,auto rotate should be fine,
If still you have the issue, reset from settings
