z1 probably won't because of the camera software, ZU can because everything can be running on a generic driver for Nexus 5.

yum yum, z ultra is reletevly close to z1, mybe it whould be easy to port ultra clean kitkat rom to z1?

It's possible. If there is ever going to be a Google Play Edition it should be announced before Christmas, otherwise don't get your hopes up.

Doubt it. Every other manufacturer only has one "Google Edition" device. No reason to see why Sony would be any different.

Same as the Ultra benefits from the Z1. They have identical SoC and hardware (except for the camera), so there will probably be some cross-development (same as the Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Note). Sony released the GPE sources now btw, so it's on!

That's what I would like to know.
Besides the very custom Camera software, how easy would it be to turn a standard Z1 into a GPE Z1?
will GPE ZU help in any way?

ok, I liked this part from Sony Blog post:
Along with brand new Android features, Sony Z Ultra Google Play edition also comes with some of our unique Sony tech – BRAVIA smarts; TRILUMINOS™ display for mobile and X-Reality™ for mobile picture engine, and our hallmark Exmor RS™ for mobile image sensor, for immersive viewing experiences and optimum camera performance respectively.

so if that GPE includes drivers for ExmorRS then maybe there's hope to import it to Z1 as well and keep the camera functionality?
fingers crossed.

So, how to get this software (????) working on Arc's hardware? Can you provide some details please.
It's a custom Rom we made for research and for FUN. We set out to make a gaming micro console version of xperia play + more. True to Sony stock all fully working.

Brother, i don't understand. Is it that this custom ROM you made is based on xperia play's stock ROM and you made it work on Arc with all the certificates, so that playstation games work on Arc too? Or is it that this ROM is based on Arc's stock ROM with the Xperia play's interface and playstation app to work?
Either ways, can you be kind enough to -
1. Let the community also benefit from this awesome effort of your's by sharing the ROM.
2. And/or, update your 'playstation on Arc' thread with information on how to make playstation games work on Arc.
Thanks in advance mayte.

Q3 Flagships : Xperia Cybershot ,Xperia Walkman & an iphone Assasin

Rumored Q3 Flagships : Xperia Cybershot ,Xperia Walkman & an iphone Assasin​
Rumors of possible smartphones from Sony that will be out in Q3 2013.
According to a tip received by Phone Arena, Sony is readying three more smartphones which will feature Sony’s impressive Cyber-shot camera and Walkman tech. Here is a rundown of what can be expected from these devices -
First is a 5-inch Sony Xperia Cyber-shot phone. It will allegedly have the best smartphone camera around, and will feature a sensor size almost equal to the Nokia PureView 808, along with Carl Zeiss optics. Unlike the PureView 808, the addition of such a camera will not affect the design aesthetics of the device. The other specifications are also high-end.
The second is a 5-inch Xperia Walkman phone which will feature an amplifier chip and every feature that the Walkman technology has to offer. The specifications are also expected to be high-end.
The third will take on the iPhone directly, with a small form factor and display size, with the camera and other specifications similar to that of the previously mentioned Xperia Cyber-shot.

Doesn't seem compelling enough to warrant a purchase.
Xperia Z already has a great camera and Walkman app. Why buy stand alone products which will probably cost the same amount?
BS.
Maybe because they are supposed to be better than the Z?
The camera one will have a better captor, flash, in fact camera in general
The walkman one will have an amplificator, a sound treatment, what doesnt have the Xperia Z, what is the case for the HTC One
That would be nice as i am Cybershoot user for a few years.

too big...the note is already humungous
it s depend on what will be special in apps and softwares and what to do with stylus
for example note II had special video player with something for S-Pen in it
If Xperia ZU be just like another Xperia device with just bigger screen, Note series will remain more in success in phablets
But the design looks boring like my Xperia Z...
Let's hope they get it right until launch!

Hope it's not true... Can't believe that we have to wait more that 3 months for update, and Z1 that have same specs that our phone will receive first a month before
Enviado desde mi Z1 Compact
The original leaked said z1c at March but there is also some other rumors said z1c will receive it faster now. There isn't any real official schedule yet so actually we have to wait..... I think Sony will tell in the very beginning of 2015.
Fake.
I hope is a fake because I can't wait again three months too
I just share with you that I find

Just spoken to Sony and the word on this leak is
Not from Sony as there is no planned date for any rollout yet
And when I asked if the ota would be timed round release of the z4.
Sony became very evasive on the matter.

Hard to believe. Thanks to the rapid release cycle those phones are not THAT different. I'm not a developer or anything but with Sony's very light skinning this should really go faster.

As you said there is not that much of a difference between Sony's series, so by updating the new ones faster than the older as z1 or z2 they ate just trying to sell more z3 and z4
It is marketing

Sony consistently disappoints with its camera performance. Check all the z series forums and you'll see plenty of disappointed users. [emoji22]

The X series has not been released yet. It could be released sometime in Q3 of 2016 when NO ONE traditionally buys a new phone, so once again, Sony will release a device under the radar and sales will be minimal.
