@alex87 i will specifically avoid a device based soley on the size of the bezel. i didnt even consider the Z over the ZL on that fact alone. having the same specs, im going for the smaller device everytime. |

It says 'G' next to the camera - what does that mean for camera features/quality? I see a metal ring around the sensor so is this for the attachment? If the attachment fits there it may be quite difficult to handle no? Maybe the attachment will have a xenon flash because that looks like an LED.
I understand that they have a design philosophy but it looks way too similar to XZ, a full metal device would look amazing with that thickness etc. |

the lens it uses is a Sony G lens, thats why its a G there
IMO I think this is a dummy... look at the screen =) it doesn´t look real! so i think this is a dummy Honami

So it looks like Honami is basically an updated Xperia Z with beefed-up SoC and camera and not that Cybershot Xperia (humongous sensor + Xenon) we we're hopping for.

I think here we have the same case as htc one x. Honami is an awesome device like htc one x was but it's not going to sell well. Honami will have the best camera in Android market but everyone's disappointed with it. It has a huge battery, people say why is it so big. It has an improved Z design people say why is it same as Z. It has a speaker grill on the bottom, people say it destroys omnibalance design.
I'm not disappointed with it I actually believe it's awesome but I'm disappointed because now it's going to be a huge flop for Sony.
Today' it's not enough to make a wonderful product you even have to think about trolls comments. With all these big announcements Honami doesn't stand a chance. Moto X and iPhone 5s will rule the states' iPhone 5s will rule Japan and Note III and G2 will get whatever is left.

So does have the G lens, sounds great at least on paper, but based from what I saw the lens should be better than the galaxy digibricks in terms of overall sharpness and saturation (Galaxy Cam/S4 zoom have sh*tty lens anyway) but I hope Sony can still squeeze more details at higher ISOs. but I'm not expecting a miracle, nevertheless I think we don't uss that much anymore since we heard the upcoming lens accessory. I hope Honami would come with the accessory out of box at least.
On a side note, Just because ramu missed on his info doesn't mean he can't be trusted. I trust that guy and besides there was never a 100% accurate info on every rumor we gather that are months away before the actual announcement of the device, even SAR makes wrong infos from time to time.
@Azerila: Impressive analogy there, Note III is nothing but an upgraded Note II with the same "hot" overclocked octacore exynos and MotoX is nowhere going to outperform Honami specs wise. if you want real innovation then look at Ubuntu Edge as none of the current android smartphones save for Z Ultra have had really "unseen" tech inside.

^ Why should ramu be the magician? There must be another magician who made all ramu's allegedly info from inside Sony wrong.

As a Samsung or Nokia fanboy viewpoint, it's maybe a failure.
I know you're trying hard to bring your Samsung influence here, but please stop. Sony has been successful outside the US and US will never be a benchmark for success. Sony did wonderfully well outside it and outsold HTC, the doomed-Motorola and Nokia worldwide. America don't revolve around the world, fortunately. And Xperia A sold extremely well in Japan.
Consumer's viewpoint? It's like a magnet, attracting customers stunned by the 20MP camera in a slim package. I will repeat again. Consumers DON'T CARE ABOUT SENSOR SIZE, BATTERY CAPACITY and so on. As long it look nice on first impression, with great marketing and a awesome sales man, it will sell. Not because how small the camera sensor is or what Azerila predict.

I was told you guys there's no Xenon flash.

the LG2 is not better in design than the HONAMI!
it's maybe more comfortable to hold, like the horrible looking S4 that is much more comfortable to hold in the hand than the amazing disigned Z.
my friend is an HTC guy.. he doesn't like sony that much
but non the less!! he said the phone feels good! the screen is awesome !
and after 5 mins you just put it down and...meh!! Is that it... 
i don't mind the design of the Z, i actually prefer the bigger bezels.
i don't like to use the smartphone with one hand... specially when typing or what so ever.
i prefer beauty over "comfort".
but when you get to devices at the size of 4.5" and 5"+ it doesn't matter if it will be all rounded or hard edged as it still too big to be as comfortable as smaller devices. |
