The app drawer icon is the new one. That part isn't fake. And if we follow the pattern, as someone said, the walkman and Sony Select icons would be there. Also, official renders wouldn't have the icon of USB connection and the date wouldn't be late June...

Nokia fans are crazy enough to post $299 with carrier contracts on deals forums where people look for crazy discount and good deals. needless to say, those posts got lots of negative feedback...
Lol. Teapot, meet kettle! Nokia fanboy, meet Sony fanboy!
Time for the fact police.
Xperia Z released in May with $630 unsubsidized price from Sony's store, with outdated S4 Pro and crap non-IPS 5" screen in tow, along with screwed up camera software. You can buy an iPhone for that money. I'm sure its a STEAL. Time to fire up that slickdeals post button.
Xperia Z released in mid-July for $580 on T-mobile. The SAME price as the far superior specced Galaxy S4 and HTC One, which were available months ago on T-mobile. Even Engadget's review of the T-mobile Xperia Z makes fun of it, saying the only people that should buy it are Sony loyalists (aka fanboy):
" So, who's this Z for? Fans of Sony style, that's who. The Xperia Z's already been outpaced by newer, more powerfully specced flagship devices on T-Mobile, like the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S 4 -- not to mention that Google Play editions of those two handsets and the iPhone 5 are already available. It's also priced the same as the One and GS4 at $99 with a two-year payment plan, making it a hard sell for those who want the latest and greatest in smartphone design. Toss in that subpar battery life and washed-out display, and we're hard-pressed to recommend this Xperia Z to anyone who's not a Sony loyalist."

This also, must be a STEAL. It's $50 cheaper than before! OMG my slickdeals reputation is so gonna skyrocket!
Lesson of the day:
Don't talk shit about competitor's pricing and fanbase without looking in the mirror first. I guess like they say, ignorance really is bliss.

Agree with most parts. The US is not the world though. S(E) have always screwed up on that market. The t-mobile launch was a huge failure for Sony

surely you should unlock a Metal Gear Solid theme/interface! with the ringtone as the codec and the message as the "!" alert sound

and obviously when you call someone you would start random conversation about film, weapons, animal and other things... and and it would have a Soliton Radar installed... and and the AR mode of the camera would hide everyone in a cardbox, or put bandana and eyepatch on everyone... and and there should be the number of Otacon to understand every geek info... and and it would read your mo3, video, pics, document to "read your mind" and it would control your phone and make it move ("rumble")... Oh boys I love Metal Gear Solid
Sorry for the OT...
PS: or maybe you would unlock a catslevania theme!!!!

OT
This article gives you a glimpse of how long ago dates the relationship between Masayoshi Son and Sharp.
So for the ones in the US, my guess is you can expect some phones from Sharp in the coming months, knowing that this is about the only thing softbank sells in Japan apart the iphone. And sharp recently released decent quad core smartphones with very good igzo screens so maybe a good news for you to broaden choice, until Sony releases phones more quickly in the US.

So let's step through the logic of a Katamari, shall we?
If:
1) People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones,
2) Product B = Product A, and
3) Product B sucks
Then what does that still tell you about product A?
I think your brain may have collected too much junk rolling about the universe, trying to save us fanboys from our rampant fanboyism. Maybe it's time to take a break before you pop an artery
