2 1/2 month till MWC and so many contradicting rumours... I am always open for a nice surprise
Since there are no real leaks everything is possible. |

The thing is: if SONY really stopped its 6 months cycle, then the Z4 compact will exist (and Z4 is the 2015 line, which means -> no Z5 at IFA: Z5 is the 2016 line). |

Exactly. If there is now a 9 - 12 month cycle then releasing all z variants at (almost) the same time would the logical solution |

@nodarsixar: Seems great! But I still find 4GB of RAM in 2015 to be obligatory.
What about the Z4c?

I think Sony will still not include the Optical Steadyshot at this moment for Z4. With the recent A7m2 camera, better if they develop a 5-axis Optical Steadyshot for mobile, but I can't think of any reason where does this feature will be used.
Phase-detection autofocus is a nice addition. Hope that it does fare well in today's focusing prowess of other flagships. But I am still welcoming the inclusion of faster capturing (ever than before), as well as manual photography (shutter/aperture/manual priority).
Global shutter is welcome. Though I still foresee this in the future of mobile imaging tech, not now.
On the front cam, Sony should also up its ante of having 1/3.0" 5-megapixel front cam with bright f/1.9 lens.

5 axis optical steadyshot for mobile? I am not sure how feasible this would be, since this would probably add more bulk to the sensor module and increase its size. I doubt there would be much space for that in the new Z4. I feel just the standard optical image stabilization would be a good start, at least for stills, since the current steady shot in the Z3 for video is pretty good.
I would prefer phase detection and better image processing algorithm be sorted first since these 2 would have better impact on image quality. |

I agree with @ascariss regarding the image enhancement required at the moment, not to mention the complication and bulkiness of the 5 axis optical steadyshot...
That picture, if proved legit, mentioned 3GB (TBD) in RAM... what I think this means is that Sony ( and all other manufacturers ) are evaluating the need for 4GB compared to 3GB even in the near future ( till the next flagship they will have ) If the current usage will not benefit from 4GB compared to 3GB even if we would love to have it as a future proof spec. they will not add it as they want to spare something for their next flagship... specially that Android L now has better memory management so 4GB might not actually have that much change in the UE, but because this is TBD, they might have 4GB at the end if they saw something that will benefit them...

If the latest rumors are true about one main flag per year then sony announcements are most likely going to be:
mwc: z4, z4 tablet.
middle of the year event: z4 ultra or sony keeps ignoring the 6" display device market and the main flag takes the phablet roll since it will have 5.5" display. i hope they don't ignore it.
ifa: z4 compact, z4 tablet compact.
I'm a good predictor.  |

Hi guys, just letting you all know that Hans has asked myself to do next year's rumors thread due to no activity or response from itsjustJOH. I'm working on it as I type this and will try to have it live asap.
Cheers, XperiaJunkie. 
I'm so happy 'cause today
I've found my friends ...
