First you have to define 4K 
51 20× 21 60 but I doubt it.
3440×1440 but this one has 2.38:1
Edit: 3840x1600 2.4:1 movie format 4K
Perfect 21:9 would be 2.33:1
rumored res of the device is 3360x1440
If Sony will market this as cinema 4K that's just cheating but very clever (if offically can be called 4K). Whoever came up with this con should get a raise and a promotion.

3440x1440 is kind of the 21:9 version of 2K, if the next phone is in this resolution, it is not 4K, then it is not a premium
if the next phone is 3840x16xx, it is 21:9 version of 4K, that's going to be premium
For 5120x2160, i think it could consider as 5K already, hope we can see it this year  |

If you can't find in GFXBench, it is probably fake
Also 8K resolution require CMOS at least having 33.2MP
Meaning Photo can't be only 19MP in any case |

Very excited to see how things will pan out for mobile with their new leadership and strategy. Certainly all this excitement from people like Tony and Zackbucks have me intrigued. Not much longer now! |

Oh don't worry tony, I hate your guts too! 
lol, but I do like all of this uncertainty. Knowing everything about the phones before the event can be disappointing, even if the phones are quite good. I like a bit of mystery as we get closer to the event.

So regardless of name the premium successor will have 4K but the question is will it be announced at mwc?
Even if it does, when will it be available.
If there is two top tier phones and the leaked one is the regular one, that makes me think how tall the 4K one will be. Unless it is the 4K one and the regular (2K) will come later. |

There usually is a new phone for September but they release 2 regular sized (xz2-3), one big (xz2p) and if there's one 1 compact. Rumor is the big one will appear individually at mwc without the smaller one.
That would be smart to reduce costs and self sabotage. And the Sept version of the regular was kind of always the better one of the two anyways.

Check this out.
I don't know why Sony doesn't use this iconic design to differentiate.
Tony, tell them to look no further than their own legacy.

To be honest sony was the brand that started the glass metal sandwich and ip rating combo for flagship phones... Most manufacturers just followed suite
For desingns sony doesnt have to look beyond y concept
I dont know why they arent implementing it
Y concept type desing or an xz1 type design eith metal built or glass built and minimalist bezels would look great along with speakers grills of z2 with the hidden notification light (which was one of the favourite feature for me) |

People should be glad they dont follow some trends.
Look at s10e, I cant tell if it is a S10e, nova4 or honor v20.

Sony should be setting up trends.. Not following as they are doing now.. By removing the 3.5mm jack |

But glass sandwich wasn't new iPhone had it before. While Z was also iconic it was copied immediately and became generic. Y design looks good but it might have the deadliest corners ever.
But the arc design is unique to Xperia. I never saw any other company copy it and everybody I mean everybody likes it. And it really is beautiful. Tested and approved. That's why I think it is a better choice but it's still a matter of taste and of course, design constraints.
They followed 2:1, galaxy front no jack. It's not like they have no faults. |

Actually from an engineering perspective i think it will be easier to put contents in a phone which is as flat as possible and the internal volume can be used to the max.
In xz2 and arc like design i think some internal space is wasted due to the curves
And in arc design the middle of the phone is very narrow and it would be difficult to provide a reasonable battery size.
They can of course make some refinements in the y concept i think to make holding it easier due to angulations. z2 was also difficult to hold in landscape during long gaming sessions

Of course, boxy would be both easier and more spacey. That's why xz2 design was a failure imo. If it was arc, at least it would have been beautiful.
Oled screens, efficient socs are becoming more common. It's a good time to try arc again.
About Y, I think the xa3 renders looks like it without the diamond cuts. The shape resembles Y design. I might be the only one who thinks this though. |
