According to the photos below, this is the Xperia Z3's metal frame. It is treated with a PVD coating, which will provide a more corrosion-resistant interface, better impact resistance and resilience to scratches. It is also said to be more environmentally friendly.
The source of the photos claimed that the Xperia Z3 will ignore the QHD-trend, instead opting for a 1080p display, a beefy Snapdragon 805 CPU clocked at 2.7GHz, 3GB of RAM, and a 20.7MP main camera. This doesn't sound like too much of an upgrade over the Z2, but who knows, maybe Sony is working on something special.

if, and that's a big IF this is legit. It could be a very thin device.

From the looks of it, it may just be the center part of the frame, not the frame itself. As with previous Xperias, the middle part of the frame gets a different treatment.

I like the omni design more

QHD is totally useless on screen size lower than 6". You could not see the difference between HD and QHD!! (unless you have bionic eyes )

Agreed... I for one will be pleased when Sony is the only Manufacturer to run the S805 with a 1080p screen (according to the rumours). The extra performance from the S805 + Adreno 420 should be very noticeable on the 1080p Z3, whereas the QHD displays on the Samsung, HTC and LG flagships will put far more strain (75% more pixels to process) on the GPU, and could put those phones at risk of delivering a perceived decrease in performance, or in the best case scenario a tiny increase. All for a barely noticeable increase in PPI and bragging rights.
That aside, the Z3 is also rumoured to be using much improved anti-glare and reflection filters on the display as Sony's displays have always been more reflective than other manufacturers, as well as a class-leading contrast ratio for LCD displays.
Lastly, the size of these QHD panels is likely to be in the region of 5.5 inches, whereas Sony is sticking with 5.2 and is said to be reducing bezel size "significantly" and slimming the phone down. It's likely that we'll see the Z3 being the most comfortable size.
All sounds good to me.

Don't know if I would like any slimmer phone than the Z2. Its already so thin that I can pocket it without any bulge from the thickness. Any slimmer and I would start to worry it bending. I already do sometimes. Of course the size could be smaller, but having used it for a while, some bezel is actually good, since you don't accidentally touch the screen. If it had no bezel or greatly slimmer bezels, it would cause problems imo. I have no more trouble using it one
handed than the SGS3.
I'm so glad Sony isn't jumping on the QHD wagon. Its completely useless. And I wouldn't want a larger screen.
All this aside, I'm still interested to see what Sony will come up with. TBH the frame is more like a slate of metal, it doesn't go around... Are there more pictures than the two in the article?

Some specifications don't exist yet, but hey, we're allowed to dream right?
In my graphic novel (which takes place 5 years from now) one of the characters uses this phone. It's just not called HTC HD3. I'm obsessed with details so I had to designed it before drawing it in his hand. Made entirely in Photoshop.

Are you publishing your novel anywhere ?

I was going for a very thin yet solid look (forgot to mention in the specs that the case is made out of metal). Guess your right - it looks sharp. Oh well, that just gives the device another function - kitchen knife.

Haha, nope. Still working on it, but it's nice you asked.
looks very nice i must say and the specs are awesome, if only......
and tell us more about the book.....
Not bad, I just don't like the screen going right to the edge at the bottom, it's also technically unrealistic, even moreso as it looks curved, at least for the timeframe an HD3 would likely be released...
Truetouch is fun, maybe one day with flexible OLEDs... but that would be in many years (5-10), while how it goes now an "HD3" would be due to be out next year
Wow, nice design.
But a 8mb camera on such a thin phone its impossible.
Anyway, you have quite some design talent!
Beautiful mate. Where do I sign for one?
Very nice
Just a short note:
Microsoft won't allow any UI changes within WP7S. Is HTC Sense 3 meant to be for Android (but the picture shows WinMo in the background).
Specs seem too good to be true, the others leaked some time ago seem more realistic (for example 1.5 GHz Snapdragon). But, I hope these points you posted are correct, especially dual-boot.

That's not Carbon Fiber on the sides - those are two huge stereo speakers
What's the point of stereo speakers that close to each other? Useless like on most phones that have them, only good to add a line to the spec list for marketing
They might by BOSE super acoustic speakers that can project the sound!!!!!!!
FFS people it's a bloody concept, stop getting hung up about it's spec lol.
It's a excellent piece of graphics design, you clearly have some skills. Now please design a decent WVGA Coreplayer skin
the current HD2 already very good

Only problem? Samsung. They've never been amazing with firmware updates. Their app drawer is also really, really ugly.
"Successor" seems a bit of an exaggeration, too, considering this uses a 1 GHz Snapdragon anyway. It's the same generation. I'd consider a device a "successor" if it's the next step up--1.5 GHz processor at the very least.
I bet it will be awesome...until the next version of android comes out.
what about rom/ram?
I'm impressed they have xvid/divx playback in there. I imagine it won't be long until we get that on our nexus one.
And the size??
I mean 4" screen is cool to have, but the whole phone gets bigger...SamsungPad ...but I like the front camera

Thinner and lighter. Width and height are just barely larger, which is impressive considering the extra 0.3" on the screen size.

This I can't disagree. The S looks like an iPhone clone. The N1 has its OWN style.
Also, there's the HTC Supersonic: basically a HD2 but with Android on it. Sleek as hell, WiMax/4G support, and an even bigger screen! It's about the only phone currently that makes me lust a little.
cool phone, unfortunately looks too much like an iDoesNot.
I just want the codecs/binaries ported!
Super amoled is amoled and touch sensors in the same layer
Htc supersonic ftw!!!!!!!!!
I dont see this phone being thinner as a good thing. The N1 is thin enough as is. Make the Samsung a little thicker than the N1 with a hard keyboard and im sold.
Hmmmmm...
No sir, I don't like it.
WHY DON'T WE GET THE GOOD PHONES IN CANADA I hate that....
Not bad, not bad at all.
Would ditch that UI though.

What can we learn from the image?
-HW button for camera
-No HW button but ICS software buttons (like GalaxyNexus)
-Better SAmoled screen higher PPI, i dont think the screen is bigger.
-Edge to Edge screen
-Learning..
Looks pretty good huh?
Tell us what you think of the image and give us your opinion!
If it is, I don't want it! No hardware/dedicated buttons=No deal for me! Most likely this isn't the Note; I'd find it hard-pressed that they'd have a new version built a few scant months after the first Note was released. That would kill Note sales!
it is fake,there are any official information about note 2. but i like this design very much

If the screen size and resolution remains the same then you dont get a higher PPI.

EarlZ maybe was meant like the PenTile vs Samoled Plus. Same res but not the same res. And you know what I mean
From what I understand PPI does not care for subpixel its basically display resolution and display size.. it does not factor in the subpixel count.
Could be the Galaxy S3?
Apparently a snapshot of it was leaked in a promo video at CES this year.
If screen is edge to edge, that wouldn't be good imho. There needs to be a bezel. Otherwise you would have too many accidental presses just by holding the phone.
This is only concept render from conceptphones

I think its too early for Galaxy Note 2, it won't be public till end of 2012. Since Samsung is still in the process of releasing it in UK n US

A design with such a thin bezel doesn't look too realistic.
Yeah I remember seeing that picture and others on sites but I'm pretty sure it was concept fan art for the Galaxy SIII.
Just compare the sharpness of the camera/earpiece grill vs the sharpness of the image. Obviously it is a render.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
It's sure a fake. Why should they invent a mobile phone without and buttons at the bottom. It's ugly without. Just my opinion
Note 2 most certainly won't have hardware buttons.
I'd rather have them too.
Will mimic the Nexus.
Google has already directed developers to begin developing with that in mind.
This concept is the Samsung Galaxy S3, not the second note (N8000)
Btw N8000 got the wifi certificate some time ago I am looking forward to see the younger brother of my phone.
It's a concept none of us will ever see in real life, but many will dream about.

I really like the green color, waterproof/resistant, the vibrating motor is amazing (I think this is a part many overlook in reviews but I hate rattling vibrator motors).
The battery life could be better but its not disappointing in my opinion this will probably get better with marshmallow. Oh and the low light camera performance is slightly worse than what I was expecting.
Overall I think its one of the best android devices this year. No other high end smartphone has IP65&IP68 while keeping a pretty design (the S6 active is ugly plus touchwizz dont even wanna think about it). The camera in daylight is amazing much better than the iphone 6s plus(I own both devices).
Thats about it I think as far as why I picked the Z5.
Spec wise, to me, it's the only complete package phone of 2015 besides the lg g4.
I wanted a ~5 inch screen, had to be FAST and a have great camera. I like pointy rectangles in my phones and a close to stock Android interface too.
Samsung S6 is an ugly phone with a gaudy UI - never considered it even though I could've bought one for €200 less...
Regret: Should've gotten the green one.

I had the Z2! Really felt an absurd difference in the vibration of the Z5! Very good! Sony changed the vibration motor?
I like the design of the phone. Ergonomics, finger print scanner, frosted glass design. Enjoying my device
The vibrator motor in my Z1 was enough to make it fall off my desk if someone was calling (I had to tone it down) and all I hear about Sony from any decent reviewer is the vibrator motor is enough to break your femur
Hello guuys i've a question,
it is supossed that z5 has SD810 v2.1 rigth? , so why cpu temp shows mine as rev1?

Verizon has S8 and S8 plus on display

Went to play with them. I still think the note series is nicer. they both feel too small to me.
The weird thing about them is that its not really fair to call them 5.8 and 6.2 inches (even though mathematically correct). really they should be called WIDE 5.3 and 5.5 inch screens. i mean, if it was stretched to 10 inches yet only once inch tall, it would be an 11 inch screen, but that wouldnt make it a better viewing experience.
They just feel like iterative changes to the s7.
Camera is good, but pixel still better IMHO.
the worst thing, by far, IMHO is the single firing speaker. I have always had notes, but after the last fiasco went through every device on the market and especially loved the mate 9 and iphone 7 plus (sorry to all here). Once you have stereo speakers you cant go back. thats now become a must have for me. I hope they add to the Note 8.
I wanted to get a new device. Now I dont know what to do!!!

For the Plus I'm looking at the extra screen real estate as a bonus. I've got a screen the same width as my long dead Note7 but extra screen length which is good for reading and other scrolling type content. In landscape you get extra width. It is 100% beneficial when you have two apps open at the same time which I do frequently. So nothing lost over my 5.7" Note7 and something gained.

People on the Note7 forum made the S7 Edge appear to be a Model T in comparison when deciding on a Note7 alternative. If the Note7 wasn't perceived as iterative to the S7-Series how can the S8 be? At the end of the day whether Samsung or someone else what's left to do to a rectangular glass-fronted slab that's new and novel? As evolutions go the S8's are far more different based on their lack of bezels and their edge displays. Huawei is doing edge screens and LG is doing bezel-less. Soon there will be multiple bezel-less edge screened phones. Then what? I guess that's why Samsung's working on foldable.
Camera is good, but pixel still better IMHO.

Based on? Both the Exmor and ISOCELL sensors in the S8 are newer versions and it appears Samsung's done some major work on the underlying s/w. We'll see what that brings when more detailed comparisons to other current phones are published.
The worst thing, by far, IMHO is the single firing speaker.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's a use case thing. 90% of my speaker use is conference calls and dual speakers and sound enhancements hurt more than they help. My content playback is typically the occasional YouTube video imbedded in a news article or an ad. For serious content I have BT speakers ranging from the pocketable IconX to some pretty high end over the ear BT cans. The value of mobile speakers is very individual and a YMMV.
I thought they had dual/stereo speakers? Using the headset speaker as the 2nd speaker. That has been reported at many sites as a spec. If not, I am disappointed in not having dual speakers especially when it can easily be done with a software tweak.
