^ I find that hard to believe considering LG have just launched the G Flex 2 with the SD810 and it's due for release in selected markets from next month. I highly doubt LG and Qualcomm for that matter would allow the release if such problems did occur.
I'm so happy 'cause today

My mother-in-law dropped my one month old Z3 Dual and smashed the screen. It's not been the same since, even after repair 
Suddenly I'm in the market for a Z4 series handset 
Is it a definite no on an Ultra variant arriving within 4 months?
I think even if the Z4 series is exactly the same as the Z3 series but with SD810 + android 5.0 it is a worthwhile handset.
Lollipop + 64-bit chip is going to be great. Next-gen stuff compared to Z3. Hardware 4K processing. Extra efficiency of 20nm architecture. 802.11ac/ad. 4+4 arangement.
Throw in a flapless type-C and everyone is a winner. Seriously we won't see a bigger leap in mobiles for another two years.
I have a dig bick

U.S. mobile chipmaker Qualcomm is facing the challenge of handling overheating and other technological issues with its latest mobile processor.
The company showcased its new mobile processor at the ongoing Consumer Electronics Show 2015 in Las Vegas on Tuesday (local time), which is being used in LG Electronics' new flexible smartphone, the G Flex 2.
The company unveiled the Snapdragon 810 for the first time in April 2014.
It was designed as a 20-nanometer flagship mobile processor for high-performance smartphones.
It has an octa-core processor with four ARM Cortex-A57 high-performance central processing units (CPUs) and four ARM Cortex-A53 low power-consumption units that support 64-bit commands for data processing.
The system on a chip (SoC) product integrates the fourth-generation long-term evolution advanced model, dubbed category 6, and theoretically supports up to 450 megabit-per-second data download speed.
It also has an Adreno 430 graphic processing unit, which has a 30 percent increase in performance and consumes 20 percent less power than its Adreno 420 predecessor.
It also supports the 4K displays which have been widely used on the latest flagship smartphones.
The Snapdragon 810, however, faces concerns about technological issues.
Problems such as overheating at certain voltages and performance degradation caused by memory controller problems have been reported, and its clock rate, an index representing a processor's performance, was estimated to be lower than its predecessor, the Snapdragon 805.
An uncontrollable limitation of processing speed to prevent overheating has been pointed out. According to the mobile chipset benchmark Geekbench, the Snapdragon 810 had a serious "throttling" problem that forcibly limits the graphic processing performance when it overheats.
The Snapdragon 810's Adreno 430 graphic processing unit and the 64-bit command support also needs more optimization as currently they are known to be incompatible with the G Flex 2.
The new mobile chip has been used in Samsung Electronics' Galaxy S6 and LG Electronics' G4.
Fiercer competition
Qualcomm also faces challenges from outside.
Samsung Electronics plans to release the Exynos 7 Octa series this year. Its flagship smartphone Galaxy Note 4 S LTE-A already uses the octa-core Exynos 7 chipset, and the company will expand use of the product manufactured in the 14-nanometer process for its handsets in the future.
Nvidia also unveiled its new 64-bit mobile chip Tegra X1 and promoted its top-tier graphic processing capability.
Another concern is that its global market leadership as the world's top manufacturer of mobile application processors will be threatened amid aggressive marketing movements by Asian brands in the middle- and low-priced segment amid a rapid shift in the global smartphone industry toward less expensive handsets.
At the ongoing Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2015 in Las Vegas, China's Huawei unveiled the new Ascend P8 smartphone which has the 64-bit Kirin 930 octa-core mobile processor it has developed for its flagship handsets.
The Chinese company also promotes the quad-core Kirin 310 processor for cheaper models. The movement can be interpreted as an effort to reduce dependency on Qualcomm's mobile chips.
Taiwan-based mobile chipmaker MediaTek also announced a 64-bit octa-core MT6795 processor, as well as the MT6735 and MT6595 for the budget phone market.
According to a report by Strategy Analytics last year, MediaTek ranked second in global mobile processor shipments, following Qualcomm.
KTB Investment and Securities Analyst Jin Sung-hye said, "Qualcomm's clients, China's Xiaomi, for instance, may look for other options from companies like MediaTek if the Snapdragon 810 processor actually turns out to have problems that are unfixed. This may cause certain changes in the global market structure."

Seems far fetched if you ask me especially the incompatable GPU or maybe the info he's recieved is old and the problems relate to normal hiccups in the R&D of the SoC and have now been sorted.

One credibility problem - when did Huawei announce Ascend P8? I only read rumors about it but there was nothing at CES so what that guy is talking about? What he said about P8 was completely based on rumors that surfaced some time ago.
IMO this whole article shouldn't be taken too seriously. |

What did I told you guys. SD810 is suffering from overheating.
And the Big core clock speed can't go over than 1.2~1.4ghz.
But as I told you before, my friend confirmed that Z4 will use SD810 |

The fact is that LG Flex 2 already has the 810 on board... so LG G4, Galaxy S6 and HTC M9 will surely have it on board fro bragging and marketing reasons.. and so should the Z4! nevertheless the critics would be really harsh towards the Z4, being it a step beside competition! Surely I'd prefer a better and more performing phone without overheating issues but with an older chip!
But this are rumors.. we just need to wait and see

PICS HERE
So it is similar to the Z3 compact in size and power (801).. nice to see the option for 128 GB!
maybe (MAYBE) the fact that this sexy device will have 32GB on the basic version is an indication of the Z4 ROM...
Also will it have microSD?
I'm not interested in such a device personally, especially for the 8MPx but it could be very appealing thanks t the SMaster amplifier on board (this also means that the true Z4 will not have it)...
also in the right picture, is it just a skin for the music player? ot looks exactly like thee A17...
Is this a legit leak?

If this thing is true and the sound quality is the same as nwz-f886, I'll buy this and I will sell my Nwz-f866

Looks like a some one has been busy on photoshop if you ask me, also why would the 128GB version be 5 grams more in weight compared to the 32GB version and it's an odd screen resolution 1440 x 720 too.

It's just an odd shape, great concept though. May be they should release an Xperia M4 Music, coming with a free six month Music Unlimited subscription, Hi-Res, DNC headphones etc

Or maybe the Xperia E4 Music... the E line has already been associate with the walkman Brand... so there's a connection! The E1
