Early July 4th celebration?
Still looking for a phone with a waterproof USB port to set off on the 4th.

Software is the only area where Sony is lacking.
Updates to new android versions take far too long for such a supposedly "light" skin, which makes me think bk they make far too many changes under the hood, than is perhaps necessary.
Also the lack of support for devices older than the latest flagship. Seriously, the Xperia T, TX and V is still stuck on 4.3, while the older Samsung GS3 has been updated to 4.4 already. Not to mention that it's almost just as old as the Xperia S, though the use of an older chipset is to blame for why it's stuck on 4.1. Another example is my Xperia L still stuck on 4.2 while the lower-specced with the same chipset and just a few months newer God damn Xperia M got updated to 4.3 last April.

Like I said, Sony needs to step up and update the Z line (Z, ZL, ZR and Tablet Z) to the Android L. And not do a shitty release, like the first JB update to the XS. Something well done. I mean, even Asus updated their Padfone 2 from 4.1.2 directly to 4.4.2.
There's a catch, though: The Padfone 2 was released in December 2012, and the latest update it had, was released in the same month (4.1.2 update).
And, the Nexus 4 will also have the Android L update, and it has basically the same specs (albeit the lower resolution), so there's no excuse for "Qualcomm didn't released drivers for this processor" like with the XS.
About the Galaxy S5 Mini and the USB thingy, in this aspect, Samsung always has the lead. They were the first to have an uncovered headphone jack (Galaxy S4 Active), and after almost 6 months later, Sony with the Z1. Now, (maybe) the same with with the Galaxy S5 Mini. Sony might release the Z3 with an uncovered USB port.

@Felimenta97
Samsung was not the first to announce wp hp jack and exposed wp usb. z ultra had already wp hp jack. it was announced at the same time of s4 active - june. sony already have wp usb device on the market announced in january, the smartband.
@vivftp
my speculations/expectations for z3 and z3c aside of the already rumored spec:
exposed wp usb 3.1 type c , wireless charging built in, two tone dual led, minimum 32gb storage, higher quality front facing camera, an option to enable both speakers for ringtones and notifications. anything else will be a surprise. |

Z3c should be xa 4.7" and same size as Z1c but thinner and front is not black on coloured versions
I will get more info end of this month
That would be great, but I think it`s almost impossible to fit 4.7" screen in 64mm wide body with IP rating... it may be 4.55" screen as of Xperia T. But if Sony manage to do this it will be one hell of the device. Definitely my next device! Can`t wait for more news...  |

Anybody noticed that the big power button and other buttons are missing on the leaks.
So they are maybe integrated flat on the side or on the back (like LG G2/3)?

@Zuckabaecka
Those leaked pics were just showing the front panel of each device and not the fully assembled device. |

Samsung is not the first when it comes waterproof headphone jack and usb port its been a while in japan for example some kyocera phones has been using waterproof headphone jack and USB port even before Galaxy S4 Active and Sony smartband also using waterproof usb port.
For me i prefer waterproof port + flaps because it will make the phone looks seamlessly and prevent some dust collecting inside the port.
But i hope Sony would improve magnetic connector by adding more pins for data syncing. |

"SneakPeak of Z3 mini/compact: D580x
4.5" scrn, S801 2.5 GHz, Adreno 330, 2GB RAM, 20.7 MP rear cam, 2.1 MP front cam"

So "just" 2GB RAM and not 3GB. Hope it doesn't have a negative effect on future updates (like known from Sammy)

My post was kinda badly written. I meant to say they were the first to introduce in a mainstream (that isn't sold only in one place) phone, not the technology itself. My bad. But, still.

Esato was founded in the year 2001 and was mainly targeted at Sony Ericsson mobile phone users. We started with a couple of services offering free ringtones, grayscale logos for the Ericsson T39 and R520 models. We have expanded the service to include free color backgrounds for over 50 mobile phone models. Other popular services are the discussion forum for anyone interested in topics about mobile phones and accessories. Even if the focus was targeted at Sony Ericsson owners, we now have separate forums for owners of other brands. The most popular sections are the News, Blog, discussion forum, Free themes, free color backgrounds and a service where users can upload images from a PC and download a converted image down to their mobile phone.
