OLED would be nice, I have seen the screen on the new tab s and it looks amazing, reminds me of my tab 7.7 but so much more sharper. Only thing stopping me from getting the tab is the software, touchwiz destroys it, shame.
JDI has no OLED panels ready, the new company won't have anything on the market until either late 2015 or early 2016, probably the latter. But then JOLED is geared towards medium sized panels, or for tablets or even laptops and not smartphones. I don't think they have any small mobile sized OLEDs ready in QHD.
Not sure where they would get the panels from, unless samsung decided to sell their displays to Sony. Unless AUO will have a OLED display ready by then at QHD for Sony, but I feel they will not. I'd rather sony use a nice quality LCD that is thinner and more power efficient.
PDAF has to be built into the sensor I believe but I could be wrong, so if the curved sensor doesn't have it, don't expect it. There won't be a larger sensor size, unless Sony is hiding a curved sensor that is larger, as of now, only 2 models exists, 1 inch and 1/2.3, so 1/2.3 is the safe bet for the Z4 unless Sony will challenge the panasonic 1 inch phone and use a 1 inch sensor, but I doubt it.
F1.8 would be nice but on a larger sensor like 1 inch but at this moment F2 is fine and doesn't need changing. If you want larger aperture, by a camera with interchangeable lenses.
Dual flash is realistic and I can see it happening. Wonder if those rumoured think xenon flashes will make it to market.
Hopefully with the new 810 and better parts which need less energy, Sony can increase the battery life with a smaller battery meaning lighter and thinner device.
Whatever happens will happen. Can't wait for the Z4 to leak next year.

If Sony were to exit the Android business at some point (which I would totally hate cause my first phone was an Ericsson (before SE), then mostly SE and now Sony), which buyer would you choose as a replacement?
I don't trust the Chinese manufacturers in terms of personal data privacy and quality and I loathe Samsung. They build terrible, ugly plastic phones, stuffed to the brim with useless features which slow down the system and you can't even delete and those unreal screen colors. I had one Samsung phone (S2) and that cured me forever. Also, everyone has a Samsung. It's the top dog and Apple of Android and that's another reason.
Oh, and since I'm old, I can't and don't see Samsung as a good, serious, trustworthy company like younger people might do. When Sony was already at the height of consumer technology in the 80s and 90s, Samsung was nothing. Or maybe building what...washing machines?!
HTC tries and looks to much like Apple. I also don't have experiences with them and don't like their design.
Motorola is soon Chinese so no.
So I'd go with LG. I had a cd-writer back then (yeah, I'm old and turning 30 tomorrow) from them, then DVD writer, later several LG TV's and actually one right now.
Lg products never failed me, they are workhorses and I think they are sympathetic (that smiley face) and have an underdog feeling to them in the Android market. Oh, and I have a Optimus 3D as "3D plaything phone"

What does your post have to do with rumors or Sony?

Well, looking at the bad financial results which have been going on for years and are actually becoming worse, it is likely that Sony will leave Android in the foreseeable future. Maybe 1-2 years.
They are laying off people, again. They closed the Vaio division and may exist compact cameras. So there is evidence.
Therefore, it could be considered a rumor that this is going to happen.
Maybe not as strong a rumor than the Z4 specs or other rumors in the past, but it could become real - or not.
And therefore we could speculate about the preferred manufacturer next to Sony and find out if there is a consensus in the forum. Just as there is speculation about other rumors.

when buying Android, you're making a statement - I'm ghetto. When Buying LG android, you're making a statement too - I'm ghetto plebeian, who likes plastic that still looks like, well... fake metal
Samsung is doing the right thing associating their crappy Korean brand (and all Korean brands have the same aura around them by the way) with luxury brands, like their recent Mont Blanc partnership for cases and stylus. Sony, on the contrary is degrading their brand value by doing cheap stuff, which nobody buys anyway. So retreating from mid-range and focusing on high end, adopting WP, and improving on their material quality (more metal, better transferable international warranty etc) are the only things that are still doable to saver their full exodus from the mobile market.

@Dr. I was thinking of the same thing yesterday and narrowed it down to a one plus one or a nexus, even though the market choices at the moment would dictate my final pick.
