It refers to a Sony Mobile press invite in France taking place on Thursday 4 July at 09.30
The pictures says that the invite is translated to the following: “Sony Mobile reserves a big surprise for you“. Note the ‘big’ in that sentence.
The graphic then shows the following hand written text: “Do not forget to mark your calendars!” It shows the text being written by a stylus, giving more credence to rumours that the 6.4-inch device will support an input device such as a stylus or pencil.
What we’re not sure about is that the Xperia Z Ultra is rumoured to be water resistant, yet the headphone jack is open with no port covering it.

Mega pixel count means nothing if the software & hardware is good enough.
Its all just part of the specs war these days. "Ah, but MY handset got 0.4 tittyflops in benchmark tests that bear no resemblance to real life use, so MY handset is like the second coming"

i will forget any other devices if it has 3GB RAM
and it will get camera button? (however it s not important)
But what about Stylus abilities? what will be special thing for it?

3 GB ram, isnt that kind of an odd ball.

I have read a comment in xperiablog that says maybe because the device is too thin to sport a 13MP ? It make sense to me, altought I prefer a less thiner device with a 13Mp camera, you can't name a device "Ultra" without putting in it all the best material available at the moment...
The info is all over the net, so nothing exclusive here.
edit : 3G RAM isn't credible.

can someone make a size comparison picture with note 2, ZU, Z and Zl? What was the rumor size for Honami?

If this is true, then it would be thinner than de Z. Well, I think the Z is thin enough. Thinner than the Z must feel really fragile. They'd better make it a tad thicker and put a huge battery inside.

I think Sony is going to use size for marketing, so ZU case would be thin, ZL would be small, either or Z is balance in between. Tablet Z is super thin as well.

why do you need 3gb RAM ?
Frmo the 2gb in the XZ (1.84... aviable) i mostly only use 800-1200mb.
What app does need that much memory ? If you think that RAM always needs power....

So is it a phone or a tablet? Am I missing the Frequency designations?

it's a phablet. Dheh!
A phone to replace or substitute a tablet. A mini tablet without needing a seperate phone.
I say well done sony for having the balls, and if I didn't own the xperia z I would definetley consider this.

Togari is gonna be a huge mistake I guess. But Honami might have a bright future. I have many of my friends saying that the Z is too large already and that they'd prefer an HTC ONE or yes, iPhone 5. I can't imagine myself walking around with a 6.4" screen phone and probably won't. The Honami I'm much more curious about and most likely will buy it when released.

I'm suprised it has a microsd slot:
Why do I get the feeling that the NXT Xperia line does not come with removable batteries or am I mistaken?
Plus, the lock screen notifications look eerily similar to WP7 icons and design.
That looks well sexy. That might be my next phone

So what is the difference between the Xperia Ion and the Xperia S? Just the screen size and at&t LTE support? Will the Xperia S also be available in the U.S. through Sony Style off contract?
So Xperia™ S have frontal camera, but ion doesnt?
that makes a difference when using with apps like skype, for me at least.
Edit: Ion specs are impressive, i wonder why SE cant offer the whole package when designing a phone , i badly wanted frontal camera on a phone like this.

To be honest, I'd be surprised, upset, and confused if they don't keep a consistent UI across all their phones, so I'd expect the new UXP on ours to look more or less the same as on the Ion and S.

Of course it will be same UI
just like x10 gingerbread is same like arc gingerbread right?
You shouldn't expect the new UI to be available on 2011 phones. Sony Ericsson has to differentiate. They'll keep the Android version updated for as long as it takes, but you won't see a new UI for old phones. They did that once with the X10 (to 2.3) because the X10 really deserved another update, but I can't see it happening with their current line-up.
You have to differentiate between old and new at some level. The interface SE uses is always fitting with the physical design of their phones. Updating the interface would break the cohesion.
And, with the different resolutions, it might not be as easy as we think. They'd have to redo a lot of the graphics to make stuff from a 1280x720 display work properly on a 848x480 display.
But we'll probably see someone at XDA backport the whole ROM. Shouldn't be that hard either, their foundations are probably more or less the same.

I can't work out if that's sarcastic, but I thought it was the same so I'm guessing not.
I really hope they do update it. The Arc UI style at the moment is.... dated at best

I want the new UI in my Xperia arc, Looks awesome. SE or Sony knows how to design a phone
Xperia S is great and like a dream machine.
But why the **** oh why the battery is sealed and no memory SD card???
Why everybody takes this ****ing iPhone philosophy!!!
I'm so pissed I think about switching...
I am really mad all those producers have to **** up something in the end.

Looks nice, although an aluminium frame sounds like a really bad idea...
If the camera spec is real then I'd think: Why would they go back to an older sensor?? Unless the 13.1mpx sensor that's in our XZ isn't good enough...

If it's using an Exmor RS sensor, then that's not old at all but the absolute latest and greatest from Sony. It's just that it'll use an 8MP version vs. the 13MP version on the Z and ZL.

Maybe among the phones released last year only: Nexus 4, LG Optimus G and HTC Butterfly (and their variants) have better specs (SoC) than Xperia SP.
BTW, according to the white paper, SP uses Corning Gorilla glass without a shater-proof sheet..
And Xperia L seems to use glass made by SCHOTT, again no mention of a shatter-proof sheet.
Does this mean no more pre-installed shatter-proof sheets by Sony Mobile?

Great mid-range phone.
Seems like a great mid-range phone to me. Of course everything seem better in their adds but I was honestly positively surprised when I saw it.
Having doubts though about the functionality an smoothness of the phone. I've been using Sony XPERIA S and with a 1.5 GHZ Dual-Core processor and 1 GB of RAM it was quite laggy even when using their built-in APPS like Walkman. At times it would stutter and force close even when other APPS were closed. Since Sony got rid of Ericsson I've become a huge Sony fan especially with their latest release the XPERIA Z. Their designs are formidable in my opinion and I guess many people will agree with me. The translucent bar in the S and the SP is something notable, probably a battery drainer but non the less a nice add to create something different, elegant and "sexy".
I'm very pleased to see another, newer device of Sony with this translucent bar. It'd be a nice second phone to keep with me just in case something happens with my future XPERIA Z or HTC ONE!
YES, definitely not going to buy the S4, design disappoints me and am genuinely sick of Samsung using cheap materials. Specs? Thumbs up Samsung!

Differences between Z1 and Z1s?

Overall the new device seems like a sidegrade or even downgrade from the Z1, unless the internal memory change is very important to you.

Plastic frame instead of aluminium, Source https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP5U59anYiQ
Notification light is no longer in earpiece, instead where frontfacing camera used to be
Down to 162g from 169g
Device is slightly bigger
Battery life changes

The Z1S or Compact has a 4.3 inch 720P screen, also the Battery is 2300 mah ...

Z1S is for T-Mobile which has 5" fHD display and Z1 Compact is the mini version.
Just a little confusion with regards to Z1 Compact. On the news section of GSMArena it says that it has OIS, Carl Zeiss Optics, IPS but when you look into the Sony phones section it doesn't state these three (TFT instead of IPS). Same goes on the Sony website but there it has Mobile Bravia Engine 2 + Triluminous Display.

That Snapdragon 800 Processor with Adreno 330 GPU must be on roll at that resolution though ...

Release date for Tmobile US? Its January already. I want this phone, but it seems the development for this device is at a dead stop.
Currently using GS4 using Google Edition ROM.

The new wristband has a waterproof microusb slot without needing a flap.
The next flagship phone will probably have this too.
They dropped the ball on that one, tmobile? really?

Project S, the Z1 copy with better specs

$299 - You've got my attention
If this device with all the latest specs costs $299, then how much money do other carriers make of their flagship?

But there are also other costs, like research and development and such.. So i would say, roughly 50-75 euro/dollar per unit..
that is one fugly phone... looks more like the LG L series that a sony IMO...
corners are too sharp, the metallic frame looks like it done by a 12 year old boy with a ruler...
no imagination at all...

did they use lego to build this thing?
It needs some color accents, I don't think the washout white is very complimentary. 5.8" screen is too big for me, the 5" XZ1 screen is already pushing it. It's bigger than a Note! The concave edge design is interesting, I think I like it, but it seems like the edges and corners are too sharp. It looks very "cut out" from certain angles. The specs are mind-boggling, though, not sure how they're making that work.
People... Learn how to read -.-
First sentence : " The Taiwan-based company BungBungame has developed a prototype high-end Android smartphone with a target price point of $299, a low price for the specs."
THAT'S NOT SONY.

The black one is interesting. The spects are ok but I worry about the service and warranty. The material maybe are cheap but I like the idea. If the phone do his job is worth it to buy for that price. Also difference between "Made in Taiwan" or like Sony "Made in China" shouldn't be there. When you buy Sony you also pay for the Trademark .

Plus factor in high latency ram, value bulk nand, crappy processor and there is still a decent margin.

Look at the design ... it is clearly inspired by the Z1. There's no coincidence here.
Eh, our snapdragon 800s are still faster than that crap Chinese processor.

Tell me about it! I had to use Huawei Ascend P6 for 5 weeks while my Z1 was repaired/replacwd. The Chinese quad core 1.5GHz in the P6 sounds beefy, but in real usage, it was so slow and laggy, the S400 in the Motorola G runs circles around it!
PS. The 5 weeks repair was due to I went on Xmas holiday soon after leave my phone for repair, and did not pick it up after returning.

Cant find much difference in this and z2, except for smaller speaker grills maybe. And given the rumoured specs, its more like z2s lol
@iRimas
Will you get this one as well soon?
Another awesome device from Sony...
Can't wait October to buy something new
I only hope there'll be the reason to buy it...
If Sony stay on S800/801, I'm quite sure I'll skip this one...

Thanks for sharing irimas. second leak of the same design. to me it looks to be z3. the design look fine to me but i'll have an opinion after seeing the whole device in higher quality pics, not these purposely blurred once for obvious reasons. with that said, my next device if probably z4, not this one, but it's nice to see the design as this should share more or less the same design with z4.
I love the sides and bottom design :

Wait, aosp launcher? lol
I have seen different view of the leak at gsmarena. I doubt it is real because the size is pretty small.
Maybe it's the Z3C

how could the hardware probably be different from the Z2 ?
Snapdragon S805 ? and more ? 5.5" screen ? maybe in 2560x1440 ? still 3gb ram !
Wondering why one of two is always ugly...
Z was great, Z1 not, Z2 amazing, Z3 awful...
Hope Z4 will be perfect again

You have screenshots in OP where you can read it's still S800/801 - I really hope S805 will be available for Z3 - it's not good to have three-four devices with a same chipset (same/similar or old cpu but overclocked - to higher values, of course)

we should see S805 for Z4 in MWC 2015...
and they still didn't increase the camera pixels for Z3,Z1 & Z2 already 20.7MP...

To be honest, I don't see a need to upgrade higher pixel for the camera. What's more important is the optimization of the camera in my humble opinion.
Also, as long as Sony continue naming its flagship Z3,Z4 and so on, then I believe it will continue the omnibalance design of the Z. Usually Sony introduce a new product name if it comes with a new design. Then again, its just an opinion of mine.. I could be wrong.
Regarding the S801, if Sony were to use it on Z3 then Z3 would be the last flagship of the Z line. Since they will look to clear all their SoC stocks.
Personally, if Z3 is released similar to what the leaks are, then Z2 would probably the best option to stay with.
Looks the same...
Sent from my Sony Xperia Z2.
is it me, or are these phones getting too damn big? the Z3 is the size of a NOTE 3! come on Sony, that's nuts. do what you want with the Ultra for a phablet, but please, keep your phones at a reasonable size. the Z2/GS5/M8 are already a bit beyond what i think is "too big" (perfect size would probably be a GS4).
why not:
1. make the bezels and top and bottom smaller -- instead of bigger!
2. increase earpiece/speaker volume from the Z2
3. put a next-gen CPU/GPU combo in it, but maintain standard HD resolution. (forget about pointlessly chasing 2K pixels on a bloody handset like dumb LG/Samsung are trying to do)
4. use Gorilla Glass 3 (or 4, if that exists by the time of release)
5. optimize the camera software/hardware so that 20MB photography isn't only manual
6. increase brightness of the screen for outdoor viewing
7. make 64GB and worldwide LTE bands standard issue
this would be perfect.
