If sony announces a SD845 device at MWC and then starts selling it in June, it will be a major let down. This would be like the old days when sony would announce and it would take ages for a phone to come to market, not something I want to see return.

Z3+, X Perf and XZ Premium were all available in june only.
They always do that.
I hope they changed, because CES midranges are already for sale in part of Europe, not sure about USA.

LG Display will supply flexible organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) to Sony. They broadened the scope of cooperation from large OLED TVs to smartphones.
According to the display industry on January 28, LG Display will reportedly supply flexible OLEDs to Sony. "We know that Sony is working with flexible OLEDs," said an official in the display familiar with LG Display's internal situations.

Interesting, I wonder if this will end up in the IFA phone.
It is essential for LG Display to acquire customers as the company will begin mass production of flexible OLEDs at 15,000 sheets per month from the third quarter in Paju E6 production facilities following those at Gumi E5
So using this
link as a source for substrate to displays, 15,000 sheets could be 25 to 30 million displays of 6 inch size, so perhaps even more.
Here is some info on the E5 line
https://www.oled-info.com/lgd[....]production-its-e6-line-q3-2018
The 6-Gen E5 line has started mass production in Q3 2017 but will only start to output displays for products that will launch at the end of 2017 - the 6" P-OLEDs used in in LG's own V30 and Google's Pixel 2 XL were produced at LG's older and smaller E2 line, and reviewers and consumers alike were disappointed in LG's AMOLED performance. . In August we first reported that LGD is still facing very low yields at its 6-Gen E5 line, but it seems that yields and display quality are improving.
Korean OLED maker expects to supply 15-16 million flexible OLEDs to Apple in 2018 (LGD will supply Apple with 6.5" AMOLEDs for its 2018 large iPhone OLED variant).
LGD could of course provide the 15-16 million OLEDs to Apple from its E5 line, which should be in full production capacity by mid 2018.
So I wonder which line Sony will get their flexible panels from, E5 or E6. Q3 starts in July 2017, this leaves 2 months before any possible sony OLED phone for IFA and then lets say early to late october launch, this leaves 3-4 months for production to ramp up at the plant to supply sony. This is not much time so perhaps then maybe early november launch if they use E6 panels. Or Sony goes for E5 panels and could launch right after IFA, so late september to early october.
So I feel the MWC phone might not come with oled, but instead will feature a LCD where as the IFA phone could definitely come with a flexible oled screen and perhaps be 18:9. Just a thought.

Very interesting news about LG and the flexible OLEDs
At the very least it indicates Sony won't be left behind when the tech starts to hit the market.
