Hey guys I'm done with this forum. Now that the sensor size has been more or less confirmed to be of a pathetic 1/2.3" size OR LESS, far smaller than the 808 Pureview or Lumia 1020, I don't see the point anymore. From all the leaked images, there was no way for a decent sized sensor to fit into that little top left corner with that small lens and be flush with the back. Sony fanboys here have been screaming about how great the camera is going to be, how it will wipe the floor with the Galaxy Camera, be comparable or exceed the 808 Pureview/Lumia 1020, and have a 1/1.6" size with interchangeable lenses and a whole bunch of baloney. Now you all are following the typical motions of cliche cognitive dissonance, trying to dig up info on how great a 1/2.3" sensor is on other cameras, making delusional claims of Sony making the sensor on Nokia's Pureview, whatever you can to twist it into a positive spin and pat yourself on the back to feel superior as a Sony fanboy. If The Lumia 1020 had been announced last week with only a 1/2.3", you would have shit all over it. But of course if Sony does it, there's nothing wrong. Sony is never wrong. And in fact, its the best thing in the world! I'm sure there will continue to be one-way bragging about how great a SMALLER sensor is, that it makes the phone slim, and that the images WILL BE AMAZING!

Unlike you all, I am not a delusional fanboy. I am only here in the hopes of a large sensor camera in a modern smartphone package. However, it seems Sony has failed me once again. The sensor may be larger than your typical 1/3" smartphone sensor, but if all of Sony's previous phones, especially the Xperia Z, is any indication, it will be saddled with a terrible lens and god awful software and processing that will make it even shittier than a 1/3" like that on the Galaxy S4. Sony cannot defy physics. Not only will the sensor be small, but the OIS will either be primitive or nonexistent. Most likely it doesn't even have OIS. It won't be remotely as good as even the Lumia 920 in low light. The Lumia 1020 has a big ass hump for a reason, for both the large sensor and the large apparatus for proper OIS. And don't give me the BS that low-light performance is not important. Over half of our time is spent indoors, and that means low and imperfect lighting. Not to mention shaky hands and blur.

So Honami is basically a refreshed Xperia Z with the next iterative processor and a slight thickness bump for a slightly better camera. It's no where near innovative or interesting anymore. It's just iterative, the next phone is Sony's six month flagship cycle, most likely saddled with the same terrible 5" washed out screen as the Xperia Z. At least the Xperia Z had an interesting new design. This is just a refresh.

And the worst thing about it is how late to the game it will be, AGAIN. The Lumia 1020 is coming out in 10 days. Honami won't even be announced until September, and then it won't even be available until late Novemeber or even December from what Sony Korea has said. What about US release? Probably next year. And you wanna talk about ridiculous pricing? The Xperia Z was already going for $650 upon release. I don't expect Honami to be cheaper. Hell, the Xperia Z actually just came out on T-mobile and it is pricing itself like a HTC One or Galaxy S4. Talk about laughable. The Lumia 1020 may be $700, but I'd pay the $50 premium for the far superior camera, non-crackable body, superior AMOLED screen, and a lag-free WP experience over Sony's laggy Android mutilation. And most important of all, its available and coming out NOW.

Besides, his name is "Katamari201". Katamari meaning mass or lump and 201 (ni-o-i) meaning smell.

What does that even mean???
