Sure, they white paper confirmed it maximum LTE download speed 150Mbps.
As far as i know LTE-A max download speed is 1Gbps.
Even S4 LTE-A is limited to 150 mbps, so while LTE-A as standard can offer higher download speeds, that's not what is offered by current LTE-A mobile generation.

The reason for this seem to be that 1 Gbps is mainly intended to be used with stationry devices while mobile devices are only required to support speeds around 100 Mbps according to the standard.

^ required by a standard for a specific hardware vs what the hardware can support according to the specification are two different ideals and practices.
In practice a mobile smartphone with enough battery power or connected to a power mains IS in fact a mobile hotspot. Only the chipsets and the standards that they support, along with the network is the limiting factor.
These are no longer the days of the PC Card Type II/III where the hardware was actually significantly different from what we had in mobile phones/smartphones some 5+yrs ago.

The standard as such does not prevent mobile devices to use higher speeds, but it states that a mobile device can only be labeled as 4G if it supports at least 100 Mbps and likewise a stationary device is only allowed to be labeled as 4G if it is capable of handling speeds up to 1 Gbps.
The data sheet for Snapdragon 800 states its HW limit is 150 Mbps.

Thanks Arne, but if we focus on the underlined part of your statement above, still in context I hope, that would be false. HSPA+ is considered 4G on at least 3 continents N & S America and also in African continent. That goes against the focused "underlined" part of your statement above ... so it leaves me a bit confused.

That's because lot of operators sloppily labels any technology offering speeds above 3G as 4G when in reality the more correct term for such technologies is 3.5G/3.75G (such as HSPA+) or 3.9G (such as LTE). Think this is described in the IMT-advanced specification maintained by the ITU standardization.

3.5G has been incorrectly marketed as 4G with some operators, esp in the US. This has caused quite a bit of confusion.

I don't know about other parts of Africa, but here in SA HSPA+ isn't seen as 4G.

Looks like a miniature Bravia.
It's a good move using that magnetic docking station. Hopefully it will soon be compatible with every Xperia in the range.
