Poor Wifi

Does anyone have poor Wifi reception with the Xperia Z1

I have various phones in the house and they all show 3 or 4 bars while the Xperia shows only one?

I don't have any phone from another brand to compare with here but i compared Z1 with a Z and ZL and the reception is about the same when testing with WiFi analyzer (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer).

I would recommend that you contact your dealer or a service location to compare your phone with another Z1, Z or ZL.

I just bought Z1 for my wife. Very very weak Wifi reception. Her old Galaxy S2 gets much stronger signal.

What can I do?

Hey, I am located in The Netherlands and facing the same problems here as well. Was wondering if more people are having weak wifi reception. This kinda **bleep**...The rest of the phone is just great, but this is such a downer.

I compared my Z1 to a HTC and Samsung and these phones got the full 4 bars, my Z1 just nothing or one silly poor dot.

Sony. please fix this.
