Your idea is great but the truth is that even with the current front facing speakers they could shrink the bezels, everyone else has done it without compromising sound quality too much.
The way I see it is that Samsung and Apple will give their designers a big new box of Lego with 100 colourful and new pieces then ask them to make a house. Sony on the other hand give their designers 50 pieces so they do their best up to a point when they run out. Sony designers then look in the toy box and find old bits of Meccarno or Mega Blocks and stick that together with superglue.
Some of the whack companies are making beautiful phones with comparable specs. Had the Huawei P20, even with the notch it's much nicer than the XZ2 despite being so plain.
Despite being so negative, I will say that the XZ2 is an excellent device but too big for what it is. If they can't cut bezels then they should engineer something new to help and I don't mean dynamic vibration. Go for two small selfie sensors rather than one big, maybe have two speakers on the sides where the buttons are that are active only in landscape mode so the front faces can be smaller? I don't want to sound like a broken record but take the S9 in your hand and think of it being equal to the XZ2, then ask yourself why can't Sony achieve that thickness, bezel size and so on.

Very "likely" the XZ2P still in the top even with IFA coming, like the XZP and XZ1 came right after...

Should we expect a premium phablet at IFA? There were rumors about a 6.2" Sony device last year. Is it possible to see it this year? I really miss the Z Ultra.

HTC 7 Surround, but make the phone slide to the bottom, instead of sliding left. Then put a good front camera and a primary speaker on the invisible part. They could tweak the screen-to-body ratio and that will make the phone look unique.
You mean like this?
Saw some more concepts like this before. Think it looks good, but still it would be thick if it doesn't compromise the front cam output quality.

@badassmam: exactly, that's why I thought that they dont shrink the bezels on XZ2 further because they just wanted to put Sony logo somewhere in the phone's front.
@spek: so, there will be one more flagship for IFA?
@ppl: that's what I was talking about. But shorter and has full speaker with one camera at the centre. They could tweak the design to be as comfortable as ambient flow, despite the humongous thickness.

I don't understand. Could you open it up a little more? Appreciate it.

I may be wrong but what he is saying is that whatever coming at IFA (XZ3 or XZ2s) is basically XZ2 with XZ2P dual cam. nothing more.

He is saying even after new phones get announced at IFA XZ2P will most likely remain Sony's top phone just like XZP shadowed XZ1 in many ways.

XZ2s or so whatever, just bring that re-design lens and AUBE from XZ2P
maybe adding up with OLED FHD+ for little bit more differentiate between two products.

As a huge Sony fan, I honestly can no longer defend them in their design choices after Asus announced their RoG phone. In terms of specs, design, and screen to body ratio (visually assessing it), they absolutely demolish the XZ2 and XZ2P! Maybe not screen resolution and camera of the XZ2P. Overall it's a much better phone, albeit the visual design maybe up to an individual's taste. Sony definitely cannot justify that 11mm hump of theirs with a significantly smaller battery, the Asus RoG has 4000mah in 8.6mm thickness! Could be wrong here, visually looking at the RoG phone, it has much smaller bezel too! Ontop of everything, a headphone jack!! With a total of 3 USB C ports! No excuse of saying it saves space. If I didn't already have a P2XL and need a phone, that would be my choice of purchase.
