6.9mm thickness! Yesss! But no word on wireless charging?
Anyway, looks like I'm going to skip this one. Hopefully they'll announce something even better this September.

don't know exactly since it's all in japanese but it seems there's a dock for it:
personally I'd prefer a dock than wireless charging but this dock makes it portrait orientation rather than landscape.
The only real use of wireless charging in my opinion is to prevent damaging the flaps from opening and closing while charging, but it states that the Z4 does not have flaps so there's nothing more to worry about.

Wow!!! what a "big" upgrade!!
I guess only SS did their homework this year
Hopefully, this "Z4" will be only for the Japanese market and their new Global flagship should be around IFA

^^I think it might be better for them to get rid of the Z-series flagship. They just add some "major" upgrade and call it a Z4?. Idk about you guys, but it makes me feel sick.
Enough with 2 flagships per year with minor upgrades
Every time, when I was about to buy their new "Z-flagship", then news about better hardware began to flow.... I ended up waiting again.
They introduces new devices and it takes months for it to come out. I hope after this "Z4", they should start to rethink about their naming strategy. Its not helping at all but confusing the consumers, I tried to persuade my friends and family to try their smartphone but most of them could not recognize which "Zs" should they buy....
I'm starting to lose hope in Sony Mobile already. Only their PlayStation department is doing well atm, they delivered what I want rather than confusing me with too many "flagship"
Edit: Sorry for whining in here guys, I just want them to do something radical rather than disappointing me most of the time

i clearly understand, this might explain the rumor why Sony is starting a new name with the Z5 and onwards. I used to own a "Z" and recently bought a "Z3" because the Z died and Z3 was cheap, im still waiting for Z5.
The reason behind why they fail and why they do this is simple. First off, the market has Apple and Samsung with their naming scheme up to 5 and 6, on the other hand, theres Sony, it would take them years to catch up to where Apple and Samsung is, therefore they sped up the process by introducing 6 months cycle, hoping they could flood the market and generate awareness, targeting on NEW consumers. However, the down side is that the CURRENT consumers (which is us the fan bois) are not feeling satisfied. Lets be honest here, when i had the Z, every time i see a new Z is announced i feel like it was nothing in compared to the previous. CURRENT consumers think as if they already own one previous generation before the new one. ie. You own a Z, Z3 gets announced, you feel nothing major upgrade from Z2. You put yourself in the shoes of a Z2 owner therefore you did not make the purchase of Z3 when clearly you own a Z.
The thing is, majority of the "buyers" i would assume are new customers, but at the same time, there is a significant amount of buyers who are also current customers, and that is us.
if they do ditch the Z naming scheme, i dont mind, but i hope they do it right this time. though i dont really like a full metal construction. I used to own Xperia T (full metal) and it felt really bad. hate the metal feel. anyway...
