May the GPU, battery life and pixel peepers Rest In Pieces.
I'll let someone else list the thousand reasons why that would be a stupid thing to do.
And there's only one thing for it: marketing.
I find that very hard to believe regardless. |

Its not that difficult or troublesome to install Ubuntu either as single OS or dual boot, with a bootable usb disk, you can try it to make sure al the drivers are working before installing. But yeah, a factory installed Ubuntu Vaio will be better since everything will be taken care of.
I might be in a minority, but I like windows 8 very much more than windows 7. I do have MacBook pro and while I agree that MacOS run smoothly with nice gesture base operation, I don't like some of the limitations of that OS. In terms of OS speed, windows 8 actually run faster and more fluidic than MacOS. With windows 8 (running on Vaio Duo 11), the boot up speed(from complete shutdown) is 5 seconds (maybe its due to the SSD hard disk), but the OS is very speedy even in all other operations.
Sorry for the OT...but I hope discussing about other Sony stuff(e.g. vaio) should be okay...😉

Has anyone seen ane leaks from Qualcomm, what is their roadmap for 2014, what kind of SoCs will be available? I saw someone mention the AB version of the S800 for Z2. Any leaks when we can expect to see 64-bit ARMv8 designs, e.g. Cortex A53s? |

A53 SoC`s will be announced at CES 2014 and should be in phones in Q2. |

I'm guessing the Z2 would arrive at MWC 2014 (last week of february) which would fit with well with a 6m schedule.
Z2 will come at the last week of May start selling at July or even those schedule can be push further
that looks more like one flagship per year |

Thanks, but doesn't that mean we'll need a 64-bit Android by then, maybe the L release (5.0 ?). Released around Google IO 2014 ? Wouldn't it make more sense for the Z2 to have that SoC vs the 8974AB, which will be seen as a bit behind the curve then ?

Then it's not so mini after all. Comparing it with Nexus 4 which has dimensions of 133.9 x 68.7 x 9.1 and 4.7 screen.
edit: found a perfect phone to compare:
Xperia S: 128 x 64 x 10.6 mm
Xperia Z1 mini: 132*64*10.5mm
Considering that both phones have 4.3 screen and same width, the Z1 mini will have big bezel :/
