According to GSMArena Note 5 has ~75,9% STBR and new Sony flagship is said to have around 80% so it should be even smaller with 5,7". We don't know its screen ratio yet, do we?

I remember to read here something like 78-80%.
But nobody knows exactly screen size.
Or they can also keep the 5.46" so the ppi still be 807.
Same screen with smaller bezel leads to smaller body.
No matter if they use OLED or LCD Active Full Vision ( new JDI LCD).
Those screens are thinner than regular LCD.
So, more space to keep same battery even inside smaller body.

Note5 is two years old (soon to be three). We're talking about 2018 flagship.

the N5 is just an example.
We wonder if the " Pro" has 5.5 + XZ1 size or bigger screen + XZP size

There are rumors that Broadcom will bid 100 billion dollars for Qualcomm. All I can say is freaking WoW

Apart from legal frenzy with Apple & Co, Qualcomm also still in a move to acquisition of NXP the deal worth $47 billions.
$100 Billions deal is lovely but I think total worth shall be no less than Verizon buyout share from Vodafone ($130b)
anyway anti-trust law will hit them hard.
*****************
AMD deal will have no go, x86 license from Intel has not allowed to change it hand
and it likely in same treatment that Intel has x64 license from AMD.

The x86 license is just non-transferable meaning, if Qualcomm will acquire AMD then they will lose the x86 license, but if AMD bought Qualcomm ( which they can't ) or merge or joined forces like forming a new company which then uses AMD's custom chips ability then they can do marvels...
I don't know actually about merging, but making alliances or forming new companies is not a problem...
the x86 license includes a cross-license also, any one who creates new features or extensions like SSE, MMX, 3D Now!, and AMD's x86-64 both can get the technology without further licensing or fees...
One of the reasons Intel's failed in their 64bit Itanium was that it was not based on x86, nor it had any compatibility or something & to run x86 code the OS had to emulate an x86 processor which resulted in severe performance hit. It was not suitable for desktops as 99% of apps was 32bit only and will face performance hit with it. being a non-x86 extension, AMD couldn't use it in any of their designs. so they developed x86-64. which was just an extension, fully compatible with the original x86 (x86-32 like what some like to name it).. and being available in desktop CPU's with same cost as other desktop platforms ( even lower compared to Intel ), and then having major OS support from Microsoft, Linux, Unix, etc... made Intel adapt it which made it even more appealing to developers to develop for.
If the x86 license drops, it will be disaster, the current x86 architecture is heavily contributed by both Intel and AMD, no company can make a product work without the use of other companies IP's. so If Intel invalidated the license. they also should stop selling all x86 CPU's because all will have AMD's IP which they will loose their license. They will just sue AMD and demand them to stop selling x86 CPU's without cancelling the whole license.
