I spy, with my little eye, something beginning with Z.

Z5 and Z5 compact, sandwiching an iphone of some kind.

Looks to be thicker, along the 7mm range with Z5c? a LOT thicker... wireless charging takes a bit of space...

New power button, just big enough for a fingerprint reader...

Remember that Xperia Y render doing the rounds...

Not to dissimilar is it.

Oh well, in 6 days you get to see the finished goods.

Sony IFA announce event is Sept 2nd at 16:30 CET (Europe time innit)

Green and graphite black from that link @viridis

A green phone, ugh!

[viridis]

To be fair, my mint silver Z3 looked very nice

[Cleoriff]

Yes I am not fond of green phones....but minty silvery ones are fine....as they don't have red...:smileywink:

They will have red in compact unless vodafone get exclusivity

No....will stick with my Red Note...going to preserve it for posterity...

I'm at an age and state of mind where I think the Note 4 will probably outlive me.

You know what, I'm going with (roughly)

Compact £350-399

Z5 £450-500

Premium £600+

Got it close on the premium.

£629

Now available to preorder from Sony

Lack of Gold direct from Sony, indicates an exclusive colour from somewhere in the uk

629 for a 4k, octa core smartphone, whilst it's direct competition will sell a 1080p, dual core alternative for a higher price?
This is why I call them sheep.
