yes it looks like XZ in almost every way, but hey, i think XZ is beautiful. so I'm not complaining. I was ready to get XZ when it came out, but I'm glad I waited for Honami
Of course it's easy to say I'll wait for 2014 flagship, but as they say, with technology if you keep waiting for the next big thing, you'll wait forever.
I generally don't change my phone for 4 years or so unless something happens out of my control (i'd still have my x10 if i didn't drop it in water!). I think Honami will definitely serve its purposes for the next 4 years

I'm happy with it since it has everything i want and looks the best (to me) out of all the phones available from any manufacturer right now.
Agreed man.
It looks very similar to z, but the z was already the best design imo.
The z design "problems" (meaning i did not buy it) for me were:
- flap for charging
- flap for mini jack
- no shutter button.
It sounds like now i have everything i wanted design wise.
Non design related, i also wanted snapdragon 800 inside and a good camera to replace my compact, and it also has it.
It will be very difficult to find reasons not to buy it!!

Does anyone have any information on whether Sony will offer 32GB version of Honami?

Sure, If for the same form factor and weight they could fit flash in it, they would have. But don't forget Z Ultra is a device that is pushing boundaries of conventional norm. Display size alone is a moot point. Last thing the ZU needed to be was large AND heavy, or large AND thick device(therefore massive in its true meaning). Despite all the doubters out there, it really is portable, despite its screen size, because it is light and thin.
It is like saying to someone on a diet, that having one singular scoop of ice cream is not going to make you balloon.
Extremely bad analogy! Having Ice Cream is fine during a cheat day/meal as long as you don't abuse it. Depending on one's workout/training regiment, it can also be an excellent recovery food because of it's carb and protein content. By the way, not really attacking you, just want to let you know because this is a common misconception to those who don't really know much about dieting and nutrition.
Sorry for being off topic.

+10000
Completely agree with what you say. Minus the 4 year upgrade though, the longest I had a phone for was 2 years. Though Honami might actually last me 4 years since it does offer everything I want in a phone, unless of course some sort of freak accident happens or SONY just wows me with their next product.

32 GB is a must for me. Plus I'm not liking the transparent top and bottom bars...

^transparent top and bottom bars?? do you mean the notification bar and the navigation bar? if so, those can easily be changed with a custom launcher..

Most of the time I prefer white, but with Honami I think black is better because of the silver metal frame around it, should compliment the black color quite well.
So the only thing unknown about Honami is if it will be offered in 32gb variant? Anyway, imo they should offer 16gb and 32gb models

, android nowadays hates installing to the SD card and the heavy games usually reach a gigabyte each.

I used Sony's new "Honami" UI, and I must say, the animations they used and the subtle blacks made the phone feel bouncy, fluid ans elegant. It just feel different.
But Sony should really scrap using the experience flow wallpaper. The red autumn leaves really makes the screen more standout.
