So my sense was right. the first leaked pics looked real enough... by looking at his hand size these higher res pics show only z3c. i also expected "entirely new design" for z3c. but on the other hand this looks to be slightly improved omnibalance over z1c. let wait for z3 full design. maybe z3 will carry s805 as opposed to this z3c pics that confirm s801?

Using the image of the rear here of the camera,
http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3158823335
as a rough guide and assuming the camera sensor unit size is the same as my Z1, the diameter of the silver ring is 8mm, and at around 46px then measuring the full side to side distance yields roughly 350px which is around 60mm. This is not 100% accurate since the angle of the photo is not 100% straight on, so there will be a large margin of error, but as you mentioned it seems to be too small to be the full sized Z3, more z3c territory.
@motvikt
using the magnetic port image I can give you these estimates, my Z1 magport is 20mm long. 78px on the image, and full length of the device is 565ish to 570px or 144mm to 146mm, yet again these are estimate, and one can see the device would be thinner than the Z1c yet 20mm longer almost. 146mm seems to be more in line with the Z2 size, so perhaps one of the measurements is wrong.
again none of these measurements are true, just estimates, and rough ones at best.
Maybe I did the calculations wrong, but only the magnetic port image is most directly on where as the rear camera photo is at an angle and will affect the measurements.
I also superimposed the side views with the port of Z2 and Z1c onto the image and made some observations. The flaps on the Z1c are almost way out to the edges and it has both flaps on one side, with no flaps on the side with the power and volume keys, I would imagine sony would continue this on the Z3c. but who knows. Also the shutter button seems rather large when compared to the rest of the body, just like the Z2, where the Z1c has a much smaller key.
Just my observations, I feel this is the Z3, and sony was someone able to minimize it's dimensions quite well or the person has big hands. But then holding my z1 in my hands and looking at the photos, it takes up as much space on the person's hand as in mine and I do not have large hands.

Awesome. I guess this is the regular z3 then. I really hope Sony wont make z3c bigger than z1c |

So just to clarify, how certain are we that this is Z3 and not some other phone? |

Edit: Fixed thanks. I thought it's one of those kids assembling the iPhones.

You've got to be kidding me.
Xperia Z3 sized up against the Galaxy Note

Well so I was close with my length estimation of 146mm 
Disappointed in the size, guess best to wait for Z3c to see how big that is. |

About the same size as Galaxy Note 1.
GN1 has 5.3in screen. 
Looks like the Iphone concept.with its black rubber looking lines. and the speakers also looks like frim Iphone |

@ascariss
I'm starting to think he got both z3 and z3c so some pics are z3 and some z3c. anyway, i'll judge the design when we know for sure which is z3 and z3c.
@itsjustJOH
I don't see any surprise in that size comparison considering sony's design language and the rumors. z4 may be even taller in dimensions then note 3 assuming it will most likely carry 5.5" QHD display, unless sony change their design language entirely and build fat phone with all slim bezels (top, bottom, sides) like g3. |

You might be correct, the 60mm width of one of the images didn't match the z2 for sure and was more Z1c in size. |

what's new in dimension
the Z2 is already 146.8 tall which is approximately the same as 146.9 for the note |

^ nothing new just the side bezels getting smaller and perhaps the body will be thinner |

I dunno, things like the crappier notification Led, the supposed relocation of the speaker to the side.... things like that make me wonder if this isn't an early prototype or some other phone. They seem like steps backwards in flagship design.
Can anyone here confirm this is Z3 using alternate sources? |

device sport latest stable android build Kitkat 4.4.4, which give a hint it's relatively modern build 
I wish it's not Xperia Z3 that we were looking for .. |
