^^ With sony, name and new high end announcements time are a mystery in this transitional era...
Based on weibo info and sony attitude i think that the name will be "z6 ultra", yet another small evolved ob, will be paired with "z6 tablet", announced at mwc (march) and that only the next main compact and premium trio will reveal more change in design/completely new one somewhere in 2h. Sony seem to take things slowly...

2015 H1- 4 series
2015 H2- 5 series
2016 H1/H2 - 6 series? M6, T6, C6, Z6, Z6 Premium, Z6 Compact, Z6 Ultra, Z6 Tablet, Z6 Tablet Compact and Z6 Mini?

Wera is T4/T5 and E5?

James Bond Phone is T5? With Snapdragon 620 or Helio X20?

Hope they keep the frosted glass and matte frames. The Z5 Premium looks like a fingerprint magnet from photos.

One of the main reasons why it would be nice to have it, fingerprints everywhere and once the back scratches up, at least the film, it will not look that premium. The second reason, price

Sometimes they're skipping one number (M2-> M4, Z1C-> Z3C-> Z5C). I don't think we'll see either of those you mentioned. Which is a shame because I have to wait for the whole year for a Compact with SD820 instead of problematic 810 and dumbed down specs (compared to the regular Z5).

I like the glossy frame of premium but don't like it glossy back

Maybe I have to put the matte protective film on it back then.

Well eventhough I respect your choice, I think shine frames are too chiq for daily use. It might be ok for James Bond and his suit but I don't know it looks a little tacky. Like an Arab sheik's Gold plated car.

Ah !! I forgot that I will use a bumper case anyway... so I could not see the frame

Now I don't know which one should I get between Z5 and Z5P. Not sure how good is the upscale features of Z5P.

I will be buying the Premium in Chrome with dual-SIM as soon as it is available.

Then I'll probably palm it off to my wife and get the Ultra in March/April if it is truly coming. However, I have doubts and feel the Premium is supposed to fill the gap (although it's nearly an entire inch short in diagonal).

Anyway, I wonder what is new in design in 2016. I hope the first half tablets will be of matching design to the Z5. I would hate to not have a matching set.

@Ricky D

AFAIK, from previous models ( Z3 specially ), Sony tends to prioritise Single SIM over Dual SIM regarding updates, If I'm not mistaken, Z3 Dual was few weeks (maybe 2 months) behind Z3 receiving both 5.0 and 5.1

I'm thinking about Dual also, but this update thing bothers me a little...

About colour, I thought about Chrome, but duo to fingerprint.. I might get the black.. but I'll choose which when I see it in person..

maybe a protective film will still make it like a mirror but much less fingerprint mess, even though Sony applied Anti-fingerprint coating to the phone.. but it seems not that much of effect it can do...
