So it seems Samsung is opting for the qualcomm S800 for the new note 3 which makes sense, probably a better SoC than their current exynos one. Good that Sony opted for the S800 for the phablet as well. |

Of the remaining devices, I'm looking forward to (and getting) the Honami.
By the way, as far as I know the C670X has been discounted ( by @randomuser ) as being an upcoming Sony phone and was declared fake. The "mystery device" , as some people are referring to it, will be a "poor man's Honami" - just like there was the ZL ( or Z'Lite'  )

I can't wait until the Togari is shown. Should be a nice competitor to the Note, hopefully it will have a Wacom stylus instead of the N-Trig the VAIO Duo 11 had.

Why would Sony do a nexus device? Nexus devices are for those who fail at presenting decent software and simply want to commoditize their products. No manufacturer with a skin with actual useful features instead of just gimmicks would create a nexus device. Sony rejected the chance to make a nexus device when they were new to android, why would they make one now?
Because Sony's been doing so much to appeal to developers and enthusiasts over the past two years and making the next Nexus would help further that message along. |

I hope Sony is next. Though SEMC previously stated three years ago they will never make Nexus phones, things changed. During 2012, Google said Sony (Sony Electronics not SEMC) is a awesome contributor to the Android codes. And Google added Xperia S to the ASOP project. Sony is in a perfect position to create the next Nexus.
Yeah thank god Sony took over so they could force those stupid engineers in Lund to contribute to AOSP

After Galaxy S4 Google Edition and the upcoming HTC One Google Edition...
Is there's a chance Honami will have have a Google Edition too ? or it might go for another lower cost phone ?
I believe this is a good move if the Google Edition (GE) will maintain the fast update approach known for a Nexus phone... but if not... it doesn't worth it as the normal edition will still have the option to install tons of ROM's including almost Vanilla ones...
And also, if the GE will be faster to update it will be awesome for developers as they will be able to run all the basic functionality of the phone very quickly before the final non-GE appears

Why I should?  I'm just hungry...
After I've tested many other manufactures, I can say SONY is the best!

So Olympus will now develop lenses for Sony cameras
http://www.sonyalpharumors.co[....]-will-develop-lenses-for-sony/
I wonder if they would also consider developing lenses for smartphones, imagine a Zuiko on Honami, that'll be fantastic

The phablet (Togari) is gonna get Sony screens, and Honami will get Sony + Sharp (lottery).
