^Interesting. I feel 2014 would spawn a fresh Sony, Z1 Compact was 2013 anyway.

@DACHA as good as that screen will be I think most if not all flagship devices will move beyond full HD displays which personally I think is a waste unless it is on a 10 inch tablet and it is going to be a massive power drain rather than a major step up in mobile displays. Hopefully Sony can get a blend of the 2 correct or it is useless for the customer.

That display looks promising:

but let's take it with a grain of salt, "...and expects to commence pilot production operation in the spring of 2014.":

also, other rumors suggest 2k display...

if anything I would expect this screen to make it into a future Xperia device a 5.4-inch WQHD TFT LCD Module at a resolution of 1,440 x 2,560 pixels giving a total of 543 ppi

Well, spring in Japan starts late March, so I guess it might be possible to release it by April although that's two months away from MWC if people can't wait. Dunno, though, might take longer since it's the pilot production. But then again, Sony's a shareholder of JDI so they might get it quicker. Oh, why I crave for OLED for Sony...

Probably another prototype. I'd like the OLED 1080p better, though.

i'm also for that JDI FHD RGBW OLED although i've read somewhere that sony is not using OLED because of the waterproofing. OLEDs don't do well for waterproof devices they say. hope it's not true.
about time for sony to silence viewing angle nitpickers. also, that should mean a better battery life. enough of the triluminos gimmick.

I think you misinterpreted the text you quoted.
In addition, JDI has also decided to invest in a pilot OLED display manufacturing line in its Ishikawa Plant in Ishikawa, Japan. JDI will begin to set up OLED manufacturing equipment toward the end of 2013 and expects to commence small-quantity mass-production operation in the spring of 2014.
The way I understand it is that JWI is adding additional OLED production lines at the Ishikawa Plant in Ishikawa. Those production lines will go online in the spring of 2014.

Ya but small quantity production is probably not enough to meet the demand of a Z1 successor or a new flagship.
Rumour has it that not even samsung can manufacture the supposed 2K OLED for their new S5, normal full HD yes and so it seems the next S will be with a sharp LCD at 2K.
Anything above full HD on a 5 inch screen is pointless and just will drain more battery if you ask me. I'd rather take a nice full HD screen, be it oled or LCD, I'd actually prefer oled for the superior viewing angles vs current LCDs in Sonys, but a higher end full HD LCD will do just as fine.
I still feel any high end phone from Sony will arrive at IFA and not MWC.

I agree with you but as far as I have heard Sony will use a 1080p display on all the devices in H1 2014. This might change in H2 2014.

Even the mid-range devices? I don't get why another 5 or 5.2 inch phone from Sony should come in Q1/Q2, it makes no sense, the Z1 is just as good as anything out there and with better software for the camera, will still be great. Samsung sticking a 2K screen on the S5 is ridiculous and will lead to more battery drain. The fact they are re-styling touch wiz is saying something, but it still feels more customized than before and thus could hinder updates from sammie.
Sony I feel should simply the UI to make it as easy to update but still customized to some extent that these features add to the android experience.
