I don't really understand what exactly 1/2" stands for, or 1", it's not a diagonal, so I don't know what it is, that's what happens when You let Americans or British set a standard for image sensor sizes (Yeah, I hate imperial units as they make no sense, see example below)
Anyway, the 1" sensor in RX100 is 13,2x8,8 mm and has an area of 116mm^2. 1/2" sensor would have 6,4x4,8mm with area of 30,7mm^2. 116/30,7 it's practically 4 times smaller. Nokia Purview 808 has 85,3 mm^2 so it's 3 times bigger than what would be it's "killer" 1/2" Sony sensor -_-

Yep, the 808 would have a bigger sensor, but then there's the matter of efficiency. Newer sensors like the Exmor RS can allow in more light, plus if it gets tech like the rumoured mobile BIONZ processor, that should help a LOT in reducing noise levels.
In the end, if Sony can put this camera tech into a phone that's a lot thinner than the Pureview 808 and take images that's nearly on par in terms of sharpness, then that's an amazing achievement.

Xperia RX = 2H flagship = One Sony.
The 20MP sensor will be used in another parallel flagship device as well ( the one I mentioned earlier, the one for those who loved the SX) and will cost as much or more than Xperia Z.
So we have 3 SD800 devices from Sony. 1 phablet and two parallel flagships.

1/2 sensor size...still smaller than htc one 1/3 ?
hopefully aperture can be f2.0
so only phablet got 2k screen resolution?

1/2" is larger than 1/3".
The Xperia Z uses a 1/3.06" sensor for comparison

Hmm.. Now there is conflicting info
zomg said Xperia RX is not a flagship. From his comments im guessing he meant it will be more of a Nokia Pureview 808 type of product

No cause for concern. Just because the RX isn't the flagship doesn't mean the One Sony phone can't use the same camera tech.
I'm hoping he'll clarify some details for us though.
