OT It's funny how S4 is outselling S5 in UK and how grey color of One sell better than Z2.

The funniest is how the iPhone 5C is no.2 yet is still called a failure.

Good job sony, 4 steps forward and 5 steps back. Unless Z3 is getting release much earlier AND they actually make it in time with no delays then thats fine. If they go with higher clock/bin S801 then it would still be good. S800 to S801 were barely any difference, they better keep the 3 gigs ram.

Guess it's time to buy a Z Ultra then.

So will there ever be another large-screened option from Sony, or will it just be the Z_ and the Z_ Compact?

According to another tweet by doomlord, a 7-8 inch tablet will replace the ultra, hopefully IFA.

The Z Ultra was a highly niche device to begin with, so I'm not surprised its being killed off.
I don't really give a shit if you loved it and you now hate Sony for not releasing a successor, but let's get our facts straight. If a product didn't sell particularly well, there is little to no point wasting R&D budget (especially in Sony's case) on dead end niche products, particularly if they are reliant on economies of scale to keep things affordable at their end.
A 7-8 inch tablet on the other hand, is a hugely vibrant market. You got your Nexus 7 and your iPad mini as obvious points. Also the Note 8.0 and G pad 8.3. All Sony has to do, is make a tablet, enable LTE and give it the ability to make calls. BOOM a Z-ultra successor, which functions better as a proper tablet, rather than being a freak tablet hybrid.

really hope sony pushes hard into the american market this coming year. it's frustrating as a sony fan to read all this tech news from big sites about intel's "paper thin" prototype tablet when the Z2 tablet is thinner by a whole millimeter, yet it's not even mentioned in the articles. Sony needs to increase it's market presence if it has any chance in re-establishing its brand.
now the biggest question for me (sorry off topic a bit..) is if and when sony will sell off their TV division.. i'll definitely need to pick one up before they do!

The Z Ultra didn't make sense from day 1, I have no idea of what Sony was doing, they could've just created a 5.9inch Note 3 competitor with enterprise focused software along with the any pen/pencil input.
