I have no research to back this up, but I feel like most complaints about the Ultra's size come from people who hate big phones and wouldn't have bought it anyway. I have a hunch that even if they dropped the display size to 6.0," they wouldn't appreciably increase sales.
Dislike absolutely massive phones but are happy with the size of the note 3. I didn't initially know it, but the ultra was Sony's competitor to the note 3. Without any productivity features? Crazy.
I said earlier, well, a long time ago I guess, that the ultra line can remain, but there should also be a 'Max' or whatever line. This could compete with the note. Even the size of the current ultra would be excusable if it meant an absolutely massive battery and relatively productive.

They marketed the Ultra as Big Screen, Big Entertainment, I guess it was their take on the big screen phones market.
So naturally, the productivity side took the backseat, it HAD the special anything works touchscreen feature (now it seems even the Z1 has it) but that is not productive by any means.
For me it works as marketed, it's a beautiful and effective entertainment MACHINE aaaand a conversation starter wherever I go and "pull it out"

Even i hope they don't shrink the screen size!Reduce the bezel but not the screen & make the HW as good as the Z2!if it had a LED flash i would have bought by now..now waiting to get the Z2 .

yeah, so no leaks, no nothing? last year we knew some details about Z Ultra kind of long before it's announcement
just wish it retains the screen size/slimness and adds an LED flash.
I know...there is a probability that the ZU was just an "experimental" release and seeing it not having stellar sales could make SONY drop it

Yeah, Jakarta isn't really where you'd expect them to announce anything. I mean, it's not a trade show is it? It's probably just a local display of their newest products in Indonesia and a chance for a hands-on.

in case the next sony flagship is going to have fingerprint scanner they should find a better way to implement it then apple and samsung did, this is bad example from apple - scanner is dead after a small scratch with a knife in iphone 5s:

galaxy s5 looks even worse from hands on videos.
