Any rumours on new tablets? I am a itch away from getting a Z4 tablet. The only thing stopping me is the price of the Z3 compact tablet and the possibility of a Z5 tablet compact. Does anyone know anything?
When is the next big event? January?

Yeay.... Vaio phone. I've been waiting for Sony windows phone for so long.... finally. Hope this is true.
So which one is it, as you can't have both. It's either a Sony phone, or a VAIO. I doubt you'll see a Sony WP, ever, and as of VAIO.... who cares, it's not Sony anyway.
The same was said prior to the first Xperia ever launched, recall the Xperia X1?
That phone was immensely popular and loved the design. I actually hope Sony does something similar again with Android; especially now that BlackBerry Priv has launched with Android OS 5.1.1; yes a BlackBerry Android phone but YUCK!

If Sony brings back the X1 design and modernize it, I would be all over it! Always wanted keyboard phones to make a come back. Honestly, was very tempted by the Blackberry Priv. If the price wasn't that high or the spec was better, would've pre-ordered it.

Well macrumors.com says "Apple Predicted to Launch A9-Based 4-Inch iPhone in Early 2016".
Believe it when I see it (for either of these). Some small hope for the small-phone brigade (i.e. me and, ummm no-one else).

Totally off-topic but IMO relevant when discussing SoC's made on both 20nm and 16nm.
HiSilicon was stressing in particular one aspect of the new process: reduced power density. Over the last few years we've seen semiconductor manufacturers able continuously shrink their process geometry, but power consumption reductions were not able to scale at the same pace. The result is that with each new generation, even if total TDP might have been kept the same, the actual power density on the silicon has gone up significantly. This causes problems with thermal dissipation and can lead to hot-spots on the silicon die which then exceed the safe operating temperatures of the chipset. Until now vendors would circumvent this problem by creating "dark silicon", meaning silicon area on the die in which there is no logic and only serves as "padding" to help thermal dissipation.
It comes from Anandtech's report from Kirin's 950 presentation.
It would explain why s810 gets so hot when 7420 is much cooler with higher performance.

Doubtful, they don't have enough money and technology to make their own high end SoC that could stand toe-to-toe with the likes of snapdragon or exynos.

won't matter if this is true

now focus on getting better sensers and actually put some work into its UI and software features. Near stock android experience was nice but after so many years, this is getting really lazy. They still don't have multi screen multitasking where even Apple has jump on board. Small apps was a neat idea but too limited and haven't been updated for ages.

thinking sony hasnt tech or money is laughable , i'm prety sure sony can create his own soc is better then samsung and huawei,mediatek , the problem is it wont be profitable .sony created cell and vita cpu (with help of ibm and toshiba), samsung ,huawei,mediatek just license and use arm's core designs , i'm pretty sure sony has alot of know-how about chip design.and most of elements of soc is from another companies.
people forgets sometimes what sony is.
