I have updated to latest firmware however major issues like "WiFi Signal drops" is still not resolved in the update.

Unfortunatley it takes time for all the issues to be adressed and often...more than 1 update is needed to address every issue. Sadly, we have to be patient and trust that SONY is working as hard as they possibly can to keep their customers satisfied with their premium product.

Then I believe sony should have fully tested the product before launching it in market. They are just talking money from customers by giving sucha pice of sh*t

There are so many issues highlighed in this forum  like " Sudden Sleep of Death" and "WiFi Signal drops". With such issues... it becomes difficult to work and that too after spending such a huge amount.

Just got the new firmare here (Telenor/Norway). I did *not* have to connect the phone to a PC, It did it all by itself in about 2 minutes. Slightly_smiling_Face What exactly has been fixed?

The lastest firmware fixed some unlisted issues as well as the 'Dead' issue where the phone would simply stop working and the user would not be able to operate the phone, a serious issue that was dealt with as swiftly as they could.

@Nik...I don't work for SONY but I can tell you right now, they would have tested this phone to no end. No matter what phone i've used in the past, the first few months is always about fixing the niggly bits to please the customers. I am sorry your upset but its just a phone and most of the software issues really do not incapacitate the phone in a manner in which you still can not use it. I hope the issues you have will be sorted soon....btw...Firmware updates don't cost you anything, its a service. Be glad they are providing the service, they could be real A-holes and just not do a thing, but they are, so please wait patiently Smiling_Face_with_open_mouth_&_closed_Eyes

wifi reception is not as good as my laptop but then the antenna is 90% smaller - but it works fine for me

Luckily I haven't experienced any problems with my Wifi...it reaches the exact same distance as my last phone and can easily use it outside in the backyard without a hitch. Some people are just getting the short end of the stick Slightly_frowning_Face
