[Q] Will this amount of clearance/gap on covers be an issue? - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Just got my Z3, and I noticed that my charging slot has a bit more clearance at the top compared to the bottom. Will this affect the phone in terms of it's water resistance/waterproofing etc?

Don't the aluminum back covers affect the wireless signals?

I believe in some cases it does, it may also effect NFC. It's up to if you're willing to go for looks over performance.
Take a look at this guys thread, he does some benchmarking on connectivity speeds with an aluminium back:

Hard to see, but the phone is floating
Just got one of these for €20 shipped (I know, the shipping costs were ridiculous) and have just finished testing it in my bathtub!
The idea is that I'd connect this to my phone while boating and wont have to worry about dropping it off the boat or something. Something I noticed when I opened it was that the lanyard perfectly fits along the length of the phone, meaning you could put the phone in that and kind of lean it against rocks while swimming or something without having to worry about scratching the phone!
Very happy with this product! Anyone used anything similar?

Not physically possible and a scam.
I am not believe, and you can buy only li-ion and use the PCB from the old battery. Did you order ? What was happen ?

Agree with you as I know bigger amperage means bigger size

That's in a weird place. I think the case block the mic.
I started a thread about this weeks ago. Had me worried at first.
