Does z3 have the function to rotate the home screen to side ways? Ive seen z1 can so im feeling weird that the newer z version cant 😕

If the Z1 can then mine is broke - It will turn if docked or connected via MHL but it won't when in normal use - Now my Z Ultra will do rotate as you say when in normal use

Only when docked as thommo said.
All z series have acted in this way.

This feature its only available on tablets or the Z Ultra but no on the rest of the phones unless the phone its connected to a Dock.

I confirm Z1 can't unless connected to magnetic dock/cable. Tablets should do in all cases,like uli said.

this can be achieved using a 3rd party launcher. I use nova launcher. And that feature is present

That is indeed an alternative

Sorry forgot link

/t5/Xperia-Z1-Z1s/is-my-xperia-Z1-fake-or-authentic/m-p/922394/highlight/true#M37999

Thats The z1 and its not docked 100% because it has no lightning sign next to battery and it does rotate
