Z3 will probably be a reversed Arc S.
Arc to Arc S was basically a processor bump. Z3 will be a bump on some things here and there, but most things will stay the same. Tbh, if they aren't going to improve the camera and the processor, they should just release something for Japan and leave the rest for the Z4 already.

@randomuser So Z3 camera's optics and sensor are the same? So it wont have support for raw mode? This is actually what I was most excited on. SD 801 is ok for me but what will be the selling point of Z2 then?
Optics same but newer sensor - 1/2.4". Slightly smaller than Z2 sensor. But still performance should be same.
No raw mode though.
Main selling point for Z3 will be its design and sleekness.

^why there is no raw mode for the new sensor? The mid-end sensors from Sony have raw mode. That is kinda weird.
Correct me if I am wrong but doesnt raw mode help produce better pics when oversampling is applied? So when a user takes photo using superior-auto, the photos would look better cause of less processing.

AFAIK there was no high end WP8 device planned by Sony Mobile. There were some ODM devices that were to run WP8.1 but I have no updates on their progress at this stage.
Well, that sucks, I was hoping for something in 2014. It seems Sony does not want to risk a penny on android alternatives, while samsung just released its first tizen phone...

So maybe we'll see an announcement at mobile Asia expo this year again. That would mean that the new ultra will be announced 12-13 June
