It's a shame we haven't seen any more camera samples leaked ahead of tomorrow's announcement just to whet the appetite that little bit more.

slightly off topic but sort of on topic from an OS point
My background is in IT for 20+ years - I find myself (now retired) trying to keep my stuff private, I have to say that is pretty much impossible with Android and google - that scares the shit out of me and also makes me angry
I got my first Android phone earlier this year and I was shocked at the blatent attempts to invade my my personal life by google - it was a serious wake up call for me, not only that but a lot of the apps on the playstore are trying to get permissions that they don't need, be under no illusion that these apps are being carefully crafted to profile you and if you don't understand the word profile then you need to do some research, google are linking your profile online with your PC to your phone - they know what searches you do they know what websites you visit - yes when you go www.******.com they know where you've been, the big issue here and one that governments need to get a handle on are cookies, try to disable cookies on your PC and you won't be able to log into facebook - google or any other social web space - cookies track everything you do, and I don't mean just google and facebook, I mean everything, on your phone on your computer an your google glass everything
you know that website that you visit that you do in private and it's all on your own - well google knows where you've been and what you've been saying, this extends to your phone location - can you imagine all of the above and where you're at and who you call and what you had for breakfast
People need to wake up to this BS, governments don't even understand the extent that this has reached because the people who are looking at it have no clue to exactly what is going on
Now the reason I typed all the above is simple - I'd rather have a Nokia device running Windows than Android
It is scary
Remember when you next visit a website on the net or call someone in you contacts - google knows you did it - who/ where it was - where you are and who you're with because they are being tracked too
Android / google I hate it - I spend a lot of time trying to enforce my privacy and I know what I'm doing
Step up governments - get some people in there that know what they are looking at and ban cookies if you don't want them - you should never have to enable cookies to log into anything - they are tracking you
Windows and Nokia are good to go in that respect - Android and google is a nightmare

Nobody seems to be interested in this:
"Indeed, independent testing has confirmed that Xperia Z1 provides the best overall image quality of all leading smartphones."
I read that, and I'm with you, Z1's camera for sure is great, that unsual sensor + BIONZ put it on a different level compared with most droids available
Yea Nokia knew about that earlier so they were sold after this statement xD
1020 is hardly a leading smartphone as far as overall sales/specs/performance goes

The 1020 is a weak camera with a weak smartphone attached that is why it is not a market leader in any camp - for me it's a weak camera that can make phone calls nothing more nothing less - but it has it's limited market of people that buy it

You are an absolute idiot. Go follow a web development course and you'll see why (session) cookies are absolutely necessary.
Your Google-phobia is just ridiculous.

and you are so naïve it's troubling
anyway not for topic here and I got on a rant - do a little research
back on topic - the 4k video recording will follow after a FW update I understand
apart from that I'm almost happy my XZ was stolen

Don't want your personal information being accessed stay away from the Internet! Google isn't at fault, it's just the way things work at the moment and there's no easy way to change it...
Are we sure there won't be a 32GB version of the Z1? I guess we will find out soon, but 16GB isn't enough and 32GB is barely enough...
Btw what time is Sony's conference local time in Germany? Engadget says it's a 16:00 PM.
