You can't honestly expect optical zoom in a thin smartphone? |

Prime lenses are always better than zoom ones, besides a zoom optics would make the device extremely bulky if it had it built-in, jut look at galaxy camera, who knows Sony might have already thought about giving that a possibility though other means

Can anybody all but confirm the specs of the Togari yet I know it's all educated guesses and tip from sources that have been correct in the past and if half of the specs are true the phablet will be a monster wonder if Shamsung are keeping tabs on Sony's New powerhouse
I'm so happy 'cause today
I've found my friends ...
They're in my head

I think we should be using focal length multiplier instead to determine the magnification instead of using the noobish (number + X) measuring scheme
A 2/3" sensor would yield a cropping factor of 3.6 so to output a 50x magnification in 35mm equivalent it'd require a massive lens with 486mm (1,750mm in full frame equivalent)focal length  what's more if it's variable zoom type and not a prime, the size would be even much bigger O_O and that's still without the necessary IS system, AF motor and zoom barrels, that'd make the phone extremely bulky, and I bet the lens would be thrice the weight of the phone itself when carried

I don't!!!
A smartphone with interchangeable lenses would perhaps be the most pointless device ever made.
Better off making a camera with basic 3G connectivity and Wi-fi. |

^^ LOL  why so serious? 
On the other hand, Honami will be Sony's show-off device so why not?

Also did i miss something new about the lens, or are we at:
- Sony G lens
- Stabilisation: Optical Steadyshot XR2
- Max apperture: f2 or f2.2, "probably"
- zoom: honestly i do not need on the phone
I would like to see but f2 + 2.13 micron pixel should give a very good quantity of light captured per pixel on existing sensor already right?
Maybe no need for stabilisation in many use case already.
Add in the mix a new sensor tech that is hopefuly ahead of competiton, and it should be very satisfactory.

Honami has 3000mAh battery but the battery will last DAYS, not hours Sony is using new battery tech for Honami
