I have a feeling that different markets will get the camera key, while others will not (maybe volume key will suffice)?
Actually has me thinking about the volume keys ... some company long ago tried capacitive touch and didn't work too well. Maybe with advances in recent tech will allow this and slightly better hardware designs to be more interesting.

Will Sony use better promotion strategy for their Xperia Flagship?? (e.g. HTC giving Beats Headset for HTC One X Bundle). So can we expect Sony to use the same Bundle strategy?? by using MDR headset or PS Vita??

UPDATE:-Calling Sony's enormous presence a "booth" really doesn't do it justice: the company effectively occupies its own building inside the Las Vegas Convention Center's Central Hall.

Anything regarding the battery (capacity)? And it seems to be non user removable, which could be a real dealbraker considering replacing the battery of my devices after 13-15 month of use due capacity loss. But if you anyway replace your device every 12 month this shouldn't be a deal braker for you.

Question to Sony:
Why is the Xperia Z launching with Android 4.1? And when will it get 4.2, cause May/June Google will introduce Key Lime Pie? Will there be ever a Xperia device launching with the actual Android version and not just with the last one?
Xperia Z is nice device, but not perfect
negativ part:
- Android 4.1
- No removable battery
- to small battery (2400mAh)
- overheating
- glass back, even if is dragontail it's still glass

The differences between 4.1 and 4.2 is in short:
Built in camera app - Sony's got their own software for that
Multi user capability - Sony might do it on 4.1 as they did on Xperia Tablet S
Keyboard - Sony's got their own keyboard Or just get Swiftkey which is a badass keyboard
Widget update
Google Search and Google Now is improved.
As you know Sony will probably give these new phones 4.2 shortly after launch in Q1

Sony and other manufacturers are not allowed to put multi users on phones. Patented by Nokia. Only on tablets.

Will we see Vita OS on a smartphone or tablet this year?
Certain people think it isn't very good in its current state for phones. Well done for stating the obvious, it would obviously be adapted for phones/tablets, given a better browser etc.
It's not all about where it is now. It's about what it can become in a few years. No-one expects the first product to be perfect. It's where it leads...

Nokia dosen't own the patent. I think the issue rests with Google.
" The U.S. Patent Office reflects that fact Nokia doesn't own a patent for multiple user accounts, with the site noting the patent application was abandoned in October 2009 after the company failed to respond to a request from the Patent Office. "

What's good about Vita OS? From an outsider point of view who do not own a Vita, I think the UI is horrendous - ugly circular icons and rigid arrangement of them leaves me totally disappointed with SCE's UI development. The PS3 XMB looked simple and cool; if they could've just developed it further to modernize the UI with more fluid navigation instead of abandoning it for the grade-school Vita OS.

And Wife too, for those who are married
On a serious note, I agree most of the features that 4.2 provides are of little value to an average user.

You know that e-mail some people received, I've been wondering. What does 'Can't wait to show you what it can do' mean?
I mean, what product could it be that they are so excited about. If it is the Yuga they are talking about, that must means some amazing new software features, because the V is waterproof and fast too with a nice camera, so it can't be a hardware aspect...
And regarding Vita OS, I think Sony can make it more mature in terms of design and colours etc (as their Android UI is), and in the long-term, even if the first Vita is not completely revolutionary, as long as it beats its competitors or at least rivals them in terms of power and price, then Sony can develop on that yearly, and eventually have something amazing on their hands.

I think VITA OS is better for small form factor. XMB is good when u have a bigger screen where u have lot of height and width. But in small screen size like mobiles and handheld gaming XMB will waste lot of screen estate and will be just displaying very little information..
I personally dont think UI should be same across all form factors. Metro Windows is good for mobile but very un practical for desktop

I just want a device sized between 4.3" and 4.8" with some beautiful Sony Design and premium build quality and materials. I hope Dogo will be the one for me.

I dont think there is anything better than YUGA
and DOGO will be below average than YUGA.
Remember the PS PHONE.So much leaks and so much publicity.I think we should not expect more than YUGA and come here after CES and write negative comments.

February release for Yuga. I have heard that UK and Japan get it first in week 6 and the rest of Europe gets it in week 8. Depending on how US carrier negotiations go it will be available either in week 6 (if they don't get a carrier deal straight away) or week 10 (if they do). Announcement on Monday is week 2, so that leaves 4 weeks between announcement and the first shipments.
There is also a chance that a singe UK carrier will get it a week early from air freighted shipments.
The GS3 had a similar release schedule, announcement, then around a three to four week wait until release.
People say that the eventual target for Sony is 2 weeks from announcement to release for all mobile devices with pre-orders available on the same day.

It's weeks now instead of months, big difference.
Also, no one launches their phones in all markets the same week, some markets always have to wait a bit.

A phone is usually a personal device, not often lent to others, but believe me, that feature is kinda a must have for some. A restricted account would mean my children wouldn't be able to buy stuff in games when they play on the phone, meaning I wouldn't receive a bill for thousands of dollars. A lot of ppl have already experienced that.
Multiple accounts is awesome, I use it on my Xperia Tablet S. Must say though, as it's a phone and not a tablet, the feature wouldn't be a deal breaker for me personally.

I'm certain we'll see Vita OS or similar by Sony this year on a phone or tablet. Last year would not have made sense as they had just released the PS Vita, but this year, I'm certain they will.

What is it that is so special about the Vita OS?
Its such a massive pile of mediocrity compared to all other mobile OS's.
Let it go.
And even if they do make it, it will be DoA. Android is turning into an unstoppable juggernaut and iOS has carved a delicious niche for itself with brand power (and money) that Sony simply does not have. What makes any of you Vita OS officionado's so certain that it would thrive against Android, iOS, Window's phone alongside the upcoming BB10, Sailfish and Ubuntu. The former three all have much more money behind them than Sony can ever afford to put behind Vita OS without killing itself.

Samsung drifts away from Android; will Motorola rise to replace it?
If Samsung adopts the Tizen OS, Motorola may be next up for the Android throne.
With Motorola X phone in development Google will focus on hardware as well. No other manufacturer will be able to compete. Samsung is already looking at alternatives.
Sony should do the same.
