I was in the same boat, when I heard sony was making a note competitor, I was excited and was definitely going to buy it, but once it was released, it was too large, had no integrated pen, and it was not wacom. I honestly do not need to use a pencil on a screen, I'd rather use a wacom pen from the device.
I have no idea how the sales of the ZU are right now, but I don't think it made any dents in the phablet market at all.
So maybe, just maybe Sony will realize the mistake and redo their ZU for the next gen?
In my country ZU sales is too hight... most of these peoples already bought it and want to sell it back.. reason ? too big for them.. not a guess... but the reason for why selling it shortly after buying... but few like it but didn't liked the lake of LED flash, they plan to buy Note2/3/Max...
Personally I liked Max more than Ultra even the design and feel of Ultra is one of its kind.. but other factors plays a major rule, the gap is too big for an already big phone. and lack of LED flash light is a killer... not to mention the small battery...
For me, Ultra will be perfect if Sony omitted the thinny profile of the phone, doing only this will allow them to squeeze the gaps around the screen, adding larger battery, LED flash, and a space for built it Wacom stylus !!
They just took the Thin feature too seriously...

@anybody:
Is Z Ultra 2 likely to be on the shelves before winter 2014 (my next upgrade date)?
i.e. with the supposed luke warm reaction from the market and even the fans in this forum is it likely to be cancelled?

@Xajel
most would choose note 3>1520>max/z ultra. the people who decided to release the z ultra like it is need to be fired imo. the least that they should have done is give it a lower price tag. i hope the next z ultra have better specs then the z2, not only a LED flash, if they are going to announce it in July, and if the specs are missing then give it a lower price tag.
@Ricky D
if a company don't have a new phablet to offer every year then they better close their business now.
@jonfensu
assuming D6503 is the 1H flagship, improvements over z1:
5.2" FHD LTPS IPS LCD+triluminos (maybe sony is hinting whitemagic? = "sirius" is the brightest star)
the newer s800
3GB ram
32GB as standard
same camera (i hope with better processing, low light shooting and more stabilization)
dual LED, 4K ready
3500mAh
same z1 dimensions with narrower bezel
exposed mini usb port (like the core has)
i hope gloves mode and no shatter film
4.4 kitkat
new software features

I'd personally prefer they go down to 4.7 inch FHD, and slim down the bezels enough to make it a Moto X kind of size.
5.2 inch, I suppose is better for a device of the Z1's size, but I still think that's a little too large for a mainstream flagship.

Hey! Lets start the rumors
What could be the specs of D6503 and D5303 (SoC, Camera, Features etc?
And I also have a little question for insiders...
Will Sony release a D5502 phone ? I mean the Z1-C without LTE (?)
Doubtful the Z1 compact would ship without LTE, wouldn't make sense, unless a 3G model would be cheaper but I doubt it, most consumers prefer to have LTE if it is available in their area.
As for the specs for the other phones, well, compact is D5503, so D6503 could be this 5.2" device slated for MWC, so probably new qualcoom 8974-AB cpu, camera, I feel the same sensor as the Z1 and features? who knows, probably IP58 again. What worries me is once this 5.2 inch phone hits MWC, what will be left for IFA? Will sony pull a samsung and introduce their yearly flagship at the start of the year along with HTC and samsung and then a Note phablet in september to compete against the Note?
D5303 is probably some mid-range model? I would feel replacing the xperia C or SP? Unless teh Z1c is replacing the SP?

First S805 device to release in May/June according to Qualcomm. My money is on the GS5 and the Z Ultra successor.

Hopefully the ZU successor will be more functional and practical. Did Zomg mention any specs of the new ZU?

Aside from the possibility of running the Snapdragon 805, no.
I think its fair to assume that the rest will be predictable. 6+inch FHD (Maybe WQXGA) IPS display with TriLuminos tech and X-reality Mobile. 8-13 MPx camera (May include LED flash), 3000+mAh battery, 2+GB of LPDDR3 RAM. Hopefully it comes pre-loaded with 4.4; anything less would be an absolute disgrace. IP58 water and dust-proofing.
In other words, the usual.

@XYZ
your spec is too depressing. sony would go out of business.
my next z ultra
reaslitic improvements prediction or should have spec if they want to succeed with this device (some copy paste from my 1H flagship prediction):
(JDI 5.9" FHD LTPS IPS LCD/JDI 6.2" 2K LTPS IPS LCD with narrow bezel)+triluminos+whitemagic+pixeleyes.
s805
3GB ram
32GB as standard
same camera as 1H flagship
dual LED, 4K ready
3500mAh
a bit smaller dimensions
exposed mini usb port (like the core has)
should have gloves mode and no shatter film
at least 4.4 kitkat
new software features like up to 4 different windows of ANY program open at the same time - sony is criticized for not taking advantage of the big beautiful display.
announcement: special sony event in June (as in 2013).

Am I the only one who likes the size of the Z Ultra? I think it makes a statement.
