Metal not glass!
Even if that's true... Why are you so shocked? What is so special?
Because its a straight successor to Z1 and should be called Z2... as simple as that

Mmm. I like that. If someone can make Firefox work it's Sony. The used to be late with updates but only because the updates really worked.

I think I just came
Sony is obviously looking to expand the uses of Vita OS by bringing it into the livingroom, so putting it on more mobile devices is only logical. Android is fine and all, but getting more people on Vita OS nets Sony more money in the long run. Let's now see how they handle the expansion of this ecosystem in the coming months.
No matter what I'm still getting Z1, but if they come out with a quality Vita OS phone next year, I might have to trade up

Somebody confirm this rumor
2014 flashgip might not be called Z2 and will pack 5.2 OLED display and 2 versions (Android , and OWN Sony OS)
Where did you hear that?
My friend has a friend works in Sony Japan .... and sorry about the OLED heard it wrong xDD it is IPS 5.2 with 2 versions as I mentioned above but is that true??
maia had mentioned something similar awhile ago. I would like it to happen, but personally doubt it because sony/vita OS:
- The OS itself is way behind android and iOS. No push notifications, the bubble interface is not as nice as squares, no customization, you can only have a total of 100 apps at any given time, etc
- There are performance issues and is not as streamlined as iOS/android. This might be due to vita's low RAM as compared to current phones and tablets' RAM amount
- Does not really have a general app store. There's probably less than 50 non gaming apps for Vita. If I had to guess, I would say they have about 20 apps.
- The apps they do have (youtube, facebook, netflix, twitter, etc) are not as good as their iOS and android counterparts. The mail and google maps apps do not even compare to
- Does not have an MP3/Music video e-store (Music Unlimited is an internet music streaming service, no buy option). iOS, android, and W8 have an MP3/Music video store.
- Video Store lacks behind google play/iOS' app store. No option to buy tv seasons, no option to rent tv shows, no subtitle/language option
- No ebook/magazine/comic e-store. They had a psp comic e-store, but they closed it last year with the promise of a new service coming that never materialized. Sony's ereader ebook store is not integrated with SEN.
- The default browser for the vita is the best for gaming, but way behind other mobile options. No browser orientation, lack of video/audio options, etc. Here's the html5 comparison between ios7, chrome25 mobile, and vita browser:
http://html5test.com/compare/[....]chromemobile25/sonyvita21.html
- I'm sure there are more, but this is what I can think off the top of my head
Considering the above, why would anyone but the most hardcore of core gamers buy a vita OS phone over an iOS or Android high end smartphone? Also consider that W8 phones are struggling pretty bad and MS has an MP3/Music Video store and a much better -- compared to SEN -- app store. Not sure if they have an ebook store.
I'm a pretty damn hardcore gamer, but I don't think I would consider a vitaOS phone unless the above problems were fixed/added to their ecosystem.

That will make it even harder, IMO. Not only will they not have all of the above, but they will also need to have some of the things the vitaOS does right (smooth touch interface, for one) and integrate with the video store, that's on SEN and the game store that's on SEN.
