Its the japanese Z4

2900mah battery
Thinner and more slippery.
A true Sony phone.
Oh I forgot they called it that there. Fucks sake, they best not make the numbering confusing now.

Just use nova prime apart from the missing google now swipe it can look 100% like stock and it supports icon packs (you get the LP icon pack by default)i wish google now launcher supported icon packs. That ugly phone icon on my note 4
Its Sony so don't keep your hopes up
The vast majority of people who buy phones don't. Sony is sticking its advertising out there with these absolutely rubbish icons and a refresh is needed.
too bad i mainly use that launcher because of that :/ I wish google allowed it on other launchers too.

Asia only? Nooooooo!! I want this damnit!
The Nexus news is pretty interesting doubt we'll see anything at I/O, as usual all we can do is wait.

I actually like the Z3+ move by Sony by announcing their flagship early(er) in the year as opposed to Septemberish. I found it weird that Sony didn't announce a device at CES this year but now the stage is really set for the Z5(or completely new name) at CES 2016.
Z5 prediction:
Design will finally change - screen size remains the same, side bezels virtually disappear, top and bottom finally get a trim (finally!), overall smaller dimensions. although I wouldn't be surprised if they up the screen size to 5.5
OIS
QHD (maybe the OLED from Morpheus, yes I know I'm dreaming here
SD 820 FinFet
Please keep front facing speakers and waterproof stuff Sony

We've seen leaks of Sony's new panel codename Lavender so it could appear at IFA as their September flagship. Sony should keep Sept/Oct as their annual cycle as the Z3 came out that time last year. The Z3+ is purely a stopgap no way they'll keep that their flagship for 7+ months.

The vast majority don't care about what icons look like either. If you care enough, you probably know enough that you can change them.

has calmed down a bit.
I know Google screwed up on battery life with 5.01, but I have faith that 5.1 will fix a ton of issues. The problem of course is that, in the meantime, I'm stuck with an awesome phone that has terrible battery life despite a huge battery.
But the way they've improved battery life on android wear is impressive. They add features and improve battery life at the same time. Standby battery life on my watch is so good, barely loses any charge overnight. That's iOS level battery drain right there.

I'm really digging the latest update to GMaps.
Love the visual and audio previews it gives you of your route when you begin navigation.

Note competitor this time with a stylus?
No more Andrex, so no more love for this sort of developer conferences.

10,000 mah Anker Quick Charge 2.0 battery pack is finally available again on Amazon!

Oh really thanks for the clarification, not willing to wait that long, probably going to get the G4 then!
Because I want quick charge! I also have no need to charge my phone that many times without being able to recharge the battery pack. I do wish the quick charge one had two USB ports, though.
It supports quick charge. That's what they call their AI Power Technology thing. One USB port is the quick charge 2.0 compatible 2.1A and the other is the standard 1A.

So for the Z3+/Z4, it looks like it will have the new Snapdragon 810 revision? As in less heat and overall better and stable performance?
If it does, I may seriously consider the Z3+.

only thing wrong with oneplus is the software is made by teenagers in their basement (and all the crappy hardare issues)

Yep. Mobile Radio Active bugs f'n up my shit.
Didn't the last time they had an announcement it was nothing more than an announcement of an upcoming announcement?
2.1A on 5V isn't Qualcomm Quick Charge. They'd mention it like they do on their 10,000mah version if it was Quick Charge certified. 2.1A has been on chargers for years, quick charge actually has higher voltage levels.
They do have a larger quick charge one, but it's not available. The link to it is on the 10000mah page.
Isn't the whole point of Quick Charge to give some adaptive fast charging? Like going from 0 to 60% is going to be faster than going from 70 to 100%?
It doesn't have to be Quick Charge certified to offer Quick Charge.
It goes both ways for phones. The S6 isn't Quick Charge 2.0 certified but it still uses the same technology.

Why anyone would spend so much time creating free content for a for profit site is beyond me. Even Andrex realizes it was dumb. That's why he rarely posts now.
Real talk.
Quick Charge spec can vary voltage and amperage up to 18W. 2.1A at 5V is just over 10W. Yes, it's adaptive, but the one you posted will not go over 10W, which is what OEM chargers have been doing for a while now. The one I posted can go to 18W, which is why it is a certified quick charge charger.

2015 year of Android failure continues.
S6 admittedly has good hardware and design, but also comes with a stupid battery decision, and ultimately poor sales even for the best designed Android phone yet.
