Indeed, it looks nice but it is longer and slightly narrower than the ZL 131.7 x 69.8 x 9.8 mm with a smaller display.
HTC One 5.4 (137.4mm) x 2.7 (68.2mm) x 0.37 (9.3mm) inches. |

I wouldn't hope for it. Sony needs to introduce something new, as it seems it is the trend now. Not just going for a larger MP camera, faster processor, bigger screen or a larger screen resolution. The consumers are craving for something that they won't expect, something unusually new or "innovative". Just like how Nokia did with its Lumia 920 with the PureView camera and PureMotion display and now HTC with HTC One's UltraPixel. Now, let's not be fanboys, but they really did something more than a gimmicky name, at least for the Lumia 920 for now.

Hey guys we are only 26 pages away from beating 2012 Rumors thread! 
Regarding the HTC One, it looks nice but with a 4.7 inch screen on a body the size of a Xperia Z it will hardly put up a fight. The reviews for XZ are in and while the haters will hate and exaggerate only the negatives of each review, I still think the Xperia Z will be one of the best phones of 2013 and will sell nicely. Looking forward to the rest of the 2013 portfolio! Cheers!
OH -- and PS4 will be announced tomorrow!

Like I said earlier
It is the same SoC it just got renamed. They are both Quad Core Krait 300 CPU`s. The 600 is just overclocked to 1.7 GHz.
Edit:
JDI to produce 4.4 inches FHD displays later this year.

Why dont they borrow engineers from their camera division? Its a shame that they make amazing cameras. they can also use their audio technologies from walkman. And its very odd for a company making TVs and havng JDI to have a screen that is not on par with the competitors
Hopefully ONE SONY will really bring the best of SONY:wink:

You're right, I would just add that HTC One uses 1.7 Ghz while original S600 goes up to 1.9 Ghz, so basically HTC One has a down cloaked S600 and as such will be inferior to regular phones with S600.

No its not the same SoC. Its the same architecture but there has been improvements made to the CPU cores and memory subsystems. Its like saying Ivy Bridge is just a renamed Sandy Bridge
At the same clock, S600 is 15% faster than APQ8064. Qualcomm themselves state 40% faster than APQ8064 but this is at 1,9 GHz, i expect S600 at 1,7GHz to be somewhere between 25-30% faster than APQ8064

I know a lot of people will not like this but to me it seams like Sony is using grade B displays and camera sensors to save on components to have a bigger profit margin. |

^high profit margin but low sales and revenues compared to the top dogs.
Hopefuly the upcoming devices will resolve the issues. |

That's why humans are likened to sheep. We blindly follow. Until last week, everyone was going ga ga over the Z. Now, just because a couple of reviewers claimed that the display has poor contrast, we agree with them? A competitor launches a device and we start bashing the Z? 1.7 ghz quad is better than 1.5 ghz quad? Barely makes a difference in real life! Now people are thinking about waiting for the H2 phone!
There will ALWAYS be a better phone just round the corner. So such comparisons are meaningless. The Z is a great phone, a big step forward for Sony. And easily the most beautiful device announced till now. Easiest way to decide is judge for yourself. Go okay with it before buying. Give in your money only if you like what you see.
What Sony deserves is applause, not brickbats. If anybody was expecting them to steal the show, they were expecting a bit too much. Sony is just finding a foothold. The Z just sounds the alarm. Sony is ready to take on the competition.
