Some will disagree with me but this is what the Z ultra should have been from the start, as in the shape and size and camera, minus the HD screen and the no IP58. |

I agree. It's a bit low powered but it shouldn't make that much of a difference. They've manage to fit a good camera and flash, which was missing from the ZU.

Agree 100%. If you look at Sony Russia's hands-on, the size is great compared to xperia z1 |

I'm thinking 1GB RAM maybe too little, yet at the same time, will people who buy this be concerned about raw specs?
Design is stunning as usual by Sony, can't fault it there, it's targeting all those Mid end Chinese Phablets that Huawei, ZTE etc... Are flooding the market with, im glad Sony has woken up to the Chinese competition as I did say last year that these guys are going to be stealing a lot of sales, especially from companies such as Sony, Htc, BlackBerry and so on.
T2 will definitely stick out from the crowd with its design, I hope pricing will be reasonable to.

With those specs and looking at the markets it is aimed at I'm expecting it to be competitively priced.

Considering KitKat (which it will be updated to) is supposed to run well on 512 MB according to Google them self, I doubt 1 MB should be considered as too little. |

399 Euros RRP. So actual online prices could be as low as 340 Euros  |

I think 1MB would be a bit too little
Yep, I get what you mean.

^That ain't bad, you could solve basic addition and multiplication, just don't divide by zero.

Xperia T2 Ultra hands-on (Russian, comrade)
Display looks awesome! Camera man was finding a bad angle but the IPS display just looked good.

Top notch design again from Sony, the design language is spot on.

Like others said I wish the original ultra was of this size- I bet it would have sold better |
