I guess next week. They issued a warning today and revised their previous forecast; now expecting 1.3B loss( vs. 1.1). I guess 9.5 million units sold would be a good guess.
That's Sony on the whole, but I believe Sony Mobile is actually one of the profitable divisions. Here's to them shipping more than 11 million smartphones!  *cheers*

I'm not sure it's relevant but to break the drought, here's my wishlist for Xperia Z3:
1- UI:
1.1 Keep current Xperia UI an option but also let users choose stock android with Sony's apps like Walkman etc.
1.2 Official ROM support: Let developers officially publish their custom ROMs through Sony (Xperia Lounge) if their ROMs pass Sony's tests.
2- Design:
2.1 Smaller bezels.
2.2 Rounder corners.
3.3 More color options; e.g different aluminium frame and back color like pink frame with black back.
3- Display:
3.1 higher brightness, less reflectance.
4- Other
4.1 Simultaneous charging through magnetic charger, USB charger and wirless charger.
4.2 wide availability.
How do you like my ideas?

I'd like to see Sony explore a slightly different design with the Z3, but something that is still sleek and angular. If they go with something that has rounded corners and a rounded back like the S5 or M8, I'm going to have to go on a week-long bender to get over it. I trust Sony to come up with something good, though.
I think the thing I'd like to see most on the Z3/Z Ultra 2 (or whatever) is a switch to RGBW OLED displays, assuming that such a product is ready from JDI. |

I would love to see Sony's take in the Phonebloks/Project Ara concept, A modular smartphone where we can choose which specific hardware do we go for to fit our needs rather than the one-size-fits-all-specs approach. this could also give 3rd party manufacturers a role to play think for example Sigma producing foveon sensor camera module to fit on the phone's skeleton, that'd be cool

I guess a modular phone would be queit expensive compared with current smartphones unless we'll a breakthrough in production technique. 3D printing seems promising but we are far off I guess. |

I hope he is right. An 8 inch tablet is really missing in Xperia line-up. It'd be awesome if that'd be Xperia Z2 Ultra. |

how are those Xperia Tablet selling? Think someone from UK said Z tablet 2 has been selling great there. Sony probably combine them with their xperia phone in the financial report so we can never really finds out. |

And make sure they can release their products as early as a month after announcement without having delay problems.

Totally. z1 was selling in my country 1.5 months after announcement. now z2 is still nowhere to be seen, there are not even preorders yet. i suppose it will start selling only from June here. a pitty, because this is the first time that more and more people actually like sony flagship more then what htc and samsung offer. display and camera got fixed overall, no shatter film, etc... |
