Z3, Z3 Ultra, and Z3 Compact, all at once. I've been saying for months that this is the way they should be doing it, and people told me I was an idiot.

I think that z3 and z3c announced at the same time is a good thing now that manufacturers are following sony with 2 flags in a year and starting to buff their own minis. i'm sure they are going to be beasts and maybe sony learned a thing or two about not having components shortages as with z2. i'm not really excited about z3 ultra as i don't find a use for ultra mini tablet, but it would be interesting to see if it will start to have its own crowd of consumers.
@litoni
the rumors say only s805 in 2014. s810 from first half 2015.

Just a hope, but I believe that's what should happen. A complete family in one big announcement. Sony does not do solo events, so I guess IFA is the best time to announce the family.
And this is what I got:

Haha. lot's of wishful thinking here, including yours. 3 devices at the same time will never happen in my opinion. it would be disastrous in terms of marketing. well, we are allowed to dream.

but the Ultra supposed to be even not odd
hence
Z2 Ultra or Z4 Ultra
and i think it will be named Z2 Ultra
the previous Ultra the Z Ultra was appeared before the Z1 with no longer than 1 month but it named on the predecessor Z increment not the successor increment

Very bold and aggressive bet from the Japanese conglomerate
or maybe they already see something coming out at the end of tunnel?

Just because one device was delayed doesn't mean others will follow the same path!
Stop this baseless criticism

I was talking about devices that are marketed as flagships phones. apparently the ultra is mainly a tablet. anyway, i still see benefits in delaying z3c to CES unless sony is starting to sell a new compact every half a year.
not everything sony is doing turned out as a good thing. buying millions of unlikable lcd panels and that even now they still didn't get rid of it, unlikable shatter film, releasing half baked camera software into the market that only a few months later they fixed it with firmware (z1), etc. luckily for sony, by the look of things, now that z2 is on the market they are on the right track. i see z3 and z3c getting even better reviews. i'm positive.

I am waiting for the Z3 Compact and hope it arrives sooner than later
Z1 Compact is more than enough for me spec-wise, but its design is not particularly inspiring in my opinion.
Z2 looks a tad better than Z1 / Z1 Compact and I hope that with Z3 / Z3 Compact we are going to see further improvements in that department.

Do we have any proof of that? I don't think Sony is committed to only naming the Z Ultra in even numbers. It doesn't really make sense. The first Z Ultra was named the way it was, I think, because they didn't want to "tip their hand" about the upcoming Xperia Z1 that wasn't announced yet. Now that everyone knows th at Sony will be updating their flagship roughly every six months though, there's less reason for the deceptive (note the emphasis) naming. I've said it numerous times before and I'll say it one more time, brevity is key. Give people something short, catchy, and easy to remember. Having to remember that the flagship is the Z2, but the top-of-the-line mini is the Z1 Compact, but also the top-of-the-line phablet is the Z Ultra is way too confusing, period. Phones from the same "generation" should have the same number.
