If you suspect liquid damage the only real option we can offer would be to contact your local  Xperia Care team so that they can assist in arranging an assessment.

They turn Red if there has been water getting in.....how can you tell there is water damage ie screen not working, misting etc

Hi Sam!

Yes I'm about to that today. At this point I don't suspect the water damage anymore, cuz yesterday at some point the phone started to vibrate consistently and didn't stop until the battery ran out.. And I could actually see the water inside the display.

Hello

I have got condence on my camera lins. Now they want me to pay 4000 swedish crown. I was really sure it was closed and dipped it under the surface in a pool. I am VERY dissapointed, so I don´t know what to do now.

Hi!

Oh thats unfortunet! But they do a pressure test on the phone to see if it's something wrong with it. Which is totally understandable.

But I know for sure that all the flaps were closed so if I won't get a new phone I'll def never gonna buy a sony again. It's a 50/50 chanse.

Check the polycarboate bezel around the edges, this seems to be a weak point, and today saw one that was cracked and that let water in. The Z1 had a complete metal bezel, personally I see this as a little bit of a backward step and I'll be honest, I'm being extra careful with mine.

There's nothing in particular that looks like a weak point that I can see by eye. But there's def something cuz before this wasn't a problem. I just know something's wrong, it started vibrate like mad until the battery ran out.

And just like you mention.. the bad experience I've got from this makes more unsure about my phone whether it's waterproof or will break again.
