This sentence doesn't make any sense.
In fact the way its phrased makes it seem like a question.
Why did you post this? What is the point of you?

Wasn't Docomo summer models release supposed to have been happening this week? Maybe we'll see some XZ2P hands-on from Japanese reviewers

It does make sense if you translate it back to Chinese. It said that the new phones will feature unique technology that will not be given to other manufacturers until later.

I have to wonder why Sony isn't using this sensor for its smartphones. Its big 1/1.1 with 12M pixels and has GLOBAL SHUTTER. Its neither EXMOR R or EXMOR RS, so is that the reason? Cause otherwise this thing would basically be unmatched for video.
12MPx Global Shutter sensor...That's unreal
If not the primary photography sensor, you could have it as the secondary (or Huawei style tertiary sensor) that's dedicated to video.

Sony could be one of the first OEM's that get 5G modem and S855 SoC, since Sony is heavily betting their smartphone strategy on 5G. I am really looking forward to 4K Premium with S855!

Depends on many things..
Some of their sensor are made for cars and security.
Amount of power it requires to work.
Bigger sensors are more expensive.
There is also design issues. People want something that looks good or just regular.
Those Nokia were pretty ugly.
Ask to any photographer, they will tell you pixel size is not as important as tech sites want you to believe.
HTC 10, Hyc U Ultra and Pixel 2016 all had 12MP/1.55 ( 7.81mm) = like 2nd cam of XZ2P
U11 and Pixel 2 have 12MP/1.4 ( 7.06mm) = both use same sensor
There is an old imx204 .. Nobody used it I think.
20MP , 1/1.7" , 1.43 micron
EDIT: about the FCC ID I left here yesterday. Does any one know if they are XZ3, XA2+ , R2 or something else?
BONUS :

Just noticed, not first time, that in some situations XZ2 is overexposing sky.
Something previous phones did not do.
I dont know if the photos were taken before it could recognise as backlit scene or HDR is not working well.

According to the site this sensor is meant for industrial work. the global shutter is a must for some industrial applications like for example monitoring visual quality in a fast production line where the camera can snap a picture for each product while the whole production line is moving quickly
And like what Moe87 said, sensors comes with different features, specifications, requirements, working conditions, abilities to match a specific type of work.
While Global Shutter Sensors is perfect for video, but AFAIK global shutter sensors also requires more power to operate & more expensive to make and to make them work.. so not the best choice for a smartphone.

^ Yes, but I'm impressed at how good XZ2 stacks up against its competitions (S9+, P20/P20 Pro). XZ2 pictures are very sharp (which is important to me) with natural colours. Although its dynamic range could be improved as it is bad (software issue, maybe?)
I'll get my hands on my XZ2 next week. Fingers crossed...

A lot of my friends ( both real life and online forum etc) really like XZ2 compact but no Volte support is stopping them from buying it. I really can't come up with any argument honestly most cheap unlocked phones support Volte.
