@Ricky D
Thanks, you are right.
At first I thought it matched the metal hedge explanation from Ramu.
But now the more i look at it the more it looks like the iphone 4s outer, with the silent switch on the left... |

@Ramu: I would be interested in knowing if your source thinks the Honami looks like the apparent fake on bgr 
@XYZ: i do not mind 20mp if the sensor allows pixel bining to improve low light sensibility, like the EXR mode on Fujis, but for instance allowing you to chose 4mp, 8mp, etc... According to your needs |

@-XYZ
As I said, Sensor technology is constantly improving, so how can you be so sure that a 20mp honami with similar pixel pitch will still look just as worse as Z's current output? I brought RX and A99 into discussion because I tried to explain how decrease/increase in pixel pitch did not affect image quality just as many traditionalist have thought otherwise. and Sony is the leader in sensor tech, they've made alot of strides already that no other sensor manufacturing companies could match with. just look at how canon is stuck at 18-22mp when Sony powered Nikon cameras can go as high as 36MP while still maintaining a lead at most instances, To be honest, I'd rather hold my breath first before spouting such claim, we're dealing with engineers who knows their stuff. honestly whether if it's gong to have 13mp or 20mp I don't care, as long as it's real imaging engineers (those who worked on RX series just as I mentioned a while ago) who're working on honami's camera tech, I personally don't need to worry about this 
But who knows what Sony is cooking at, all we know is that Honami will be a game changer device, so Sony must have considered alot of stuffs during its initial planning phase.

If Phone Arena doesn't give Honami above 9 rating I Don't think there will ever be any SONY device that will get over 9 from them |

Seems like C680X is Honami and C683X is Togari. |

Similar to how Z was described as being a "giant iphone", Honami also looks like an Iphone without the button. The bottom has more rounded corners. No very clearly noticeable hump at the back for the camera. Doesn't APPEAR thick i.e. the design masks the thickness very well. 
Front is glass. Back and sides appear to be metal, even the port flaps are metal (or appear like metal? )

No Carbon fibre?
Carbon fibre doesn't really feel that nice in the hand though....
but its pretty |

RaMu - The numbers are not relevant. Will get Togari a stylus and will it be also waterresistant for sure?

So does metal....Metal also happens to offer better in-hand feel than Carbon Fibre, which is often coated in some kind of resin for its rigidity. This resin often feels very plasticy. |

I can smell that we are going to have something on Honami that will utterly dissapoint us and/or tech news sites. The device will be perfect, EXCEPT for something.

Hi Everyone,
Please forgive me if this was posted before ... and although not specific to conversations related to rumored products ... Sony's CEO Kazuo Hirai has been interviewed at All Things D (Digital) 11 here. I feel that this should be an interesting video review for you all just to understand what Sony is up to as a whole.
Cheers.
4K Movies for 4K TV.
(synergy of hardware & content)
- 4K TV is great but without content ... its not there, Samsung for example doesn't own content they'll have to license it, where Sony does and will bring it available on day 1 for launch!
It's about the products and the experience provided to customers
R&D & Product Development focused on this.
The message out to consumers, Xperia Z a lot of great reviews in Japan.
Xperia Z first designed from the ground up from Sony solely.
Aiming towards the high-end market; where quality and features resonate to the consumer (product & experience)
& more.
