those rumors sound good to me if they are true.
i may be in need of an upgrade.. my z1 is on its last legs through no fault of its own. sometimes when I play a game at 80% battery, it will simply die and go to 0% for no reason. sadly, it's time for an upgrade, but I will wait until the price drops before I grab one.
I am interested to see what new design sony will come up with. Hopefully, it is truly new and not just a slight modification.
IFA can't come soon enough!!!
Z3 has been on sale for $299 in US since two months ago, but they sell really fast, so that maybe a temp solution for your problem

Xiaomi Mi5 Plus - "Under the hood, we find Qualcomm's newest top of the line SoC - the Snapdragon 820, which should deliver unmatched computing power. Just to make sure things run as smooth as possible, Xiaomi has also thrown in 4GB of fast LPDDR4 RAM and 64GB of onboard storage."
Which means S820 is already ready for mass production fairly soon? Will we see Z5 is powered by S820?

Mi5 is still a rumor, it should be out around November. 820 at IFA is almost impossible.

Qualcomm was reported to ship s820 to manufacturers from second half, manufacturers test new chipsets for a few months before the retail version of a device, most if not all like sony announce new flags at mwc and ifa with showing testing units, november is rumored to be the launch month for sony and xiaomi and maybe for others too. sony is typically pretty slow to launch new flags after they announce them. i don't find anything above impossible as of now.

Xiaomi phones always looks very attractive in spec and price, but people always told me you get what you paid for. I had a chance to play with a Xiaomi phone last year I think it was the mi red or something and it does looks pretty cheaply built...

It is not as bad as it used to be, the Z3+ was introduced in the last week of May and you could purchase it as of 2-3 weeks later in stores. It may not be that fast but I remember when sony used to announce products months ahead of time before their release. I'll be fine with an IFA intro and November on sale date. If anything I'll wait it out till december before buying it, assuming it is much improved over the Z3 I have now.

Yeah, Sony used to have long time between announcement and launch.. from 3 months up to 6~8 months sometimes ( and some markets - like Xperia arc )
but now they become much much better, having 1 month target but sometimes it becomes less or more depending on which market...

Yeah, but they seem to launch z3+ only in selected countries. not impressive. i want to see them launch the next new flag devices as fast and in much more countries like samsung and some others are doing. i think samsung even launched s5 at the day of announcement if i recall, in the us. impressive. i'm not expecting that from sony though. septermber announcement and november launch is not much different then any other previous years. it is fine as long as they announce the 3 devices at ifa so people will want to wait until november and then buy one of or at least compare them to the other manufacturers flags before deciding instead of buying note 5, iphone 6s, lg phablet on the day of their release and pass on sony. if sony don't announce even one flag (for one, ultra fits the most - to rival note, 6s plus and lg phablet) at ifa they are shooting themselves imo, especially after z3+ mediocre impressions. on top of that, they rely on s820 being ready for this year. tough time for them as totoki said in that review that they want to see profit in 2016. they have no other viable choice though.

Most people complained about the minimal upgrade seen in Z3+/Z4 as compared to Z3. Please rethink again and judge how much effort have the engineers placed in after reading the website. I believe there will be more significant improvement in the upcoming Z5!
