That's probably because the product is no longer available. And yes, it would have been a new product.

Yes, on many websites. However, some websites refuse the Xperia Z3 compact. There are more refusals for applications. In any case, for the SBB website, it's OK.

The Google Play Store was no longer accessible for me, so I could no longer install any apps, let alone update the Android version.

Should I buy a new one? Or would you rather take the security risk?

And in what way is this a question about the product?

My Z3 only received a software repair under warranty. I am still in possession of it. However, during this warranty work, I was lent a Huwei. This works perfectly and I took care of it. No damage.

The colours are usually in stock at Digitec or external warehouses according to demand. This is why you will almost always find a black model cheaper than other colours for all electronic items, as these are usually purchased in larger quantities and the price advantage can therefore be passed on to the customer. Black is and remains the most popular colour for electronic items.

When setting up the device, you are asked to make/confirm software updates. The device was originally delivered with 4.4 KitKat, but it can now be updated to 6.0.1 Marshmallow without any problems or additional effort.

The demand for the orange model is lower and was therefore sold less, so the price for it is a little higher than for the black model.

I have to say that the GPS convinced me a lot, although it's a question of aspiration. Compared to my old Xperia Mini, it was an improvement. Getting the location is very reliable. If you haven't had GPS on for a long time and no internet, the location comes up relatively quickly after a waiting period. It takes a moment until the almanac is synchronised, but that's "normal", with internet it's much faster. But it also depends on the app. With Google Maps and Navigation, the road clicks into place perfectly. With Runtastic, you sometimes run a little "off" the road, but that's probably intentional. I was convinced by the runtime - 2 hours of GPS tracking while jogging takes only 5-10% of the battery - which is very good from my point of view - in energy-saving mode, the fully charged phone lasts over 3 days without recharging - an iPhone needs to copy that.

Our exhibition models are always marked "Showroom". Unfortunately, we do not have a copy of this mobile phone at the moment.
