A completely new soc (SD810) alone can be considered as a huge jump...Then there is the rumored 4GB of RAM and 32GB of ROM and that 4,7" 1080p display.

I know back in the old SE days the Walkman brand was bigger than the Cybershot brand so a low entry Walkman device makes sense. Would be great if it has dual speakers on a budget device, would help differentiate from similar priced smartphones.

with those rumored specs the walkman xperia has to be priced way below 120USD or it's DOA. Competition is getting stronger every quarter. Meizu is rumored to release a 170USD phone with an 64-bit MediaTek SoC, 2GB RAM, LTE support and a 4.6" 1080p display

Sony seen growth in the low-end according to the recent infographic, I seem to remember.

When was the last time Sony put a 5.0MP cam on a mid range phone? Could the above specs belong to the next low-end Xperia™ E4?

@goldenface The E3 can be found for as little as £89.99 in the UK which I think is a very good price. It did launch in my store @ £149.99 but is now less than £100, could the sudden price drop indicate that the possible leaked spec are indeed for the E4, it kind of points that way.

@goldenface
5.7mm thickness for z4 ultra and even for z4 tablet is out of the question considering the internals that sony put inside the flags, just look at this z3 teardown, the camera sensor is almost as thick as the whole phone (!): http://www.ewisetech.com/Pages/Article/125_1.aspx and don't forget that devices have chassis (!). 5.7mm is seriously not possible, not in 2015 anyway.
a surprise would be maintaining around the thickness of z3 (7.3mm) = 7mm-7mm+ for z4 and z4 ultra. that would be amazing if they can do that. i would seriously bow them.

btw, that "an onymous xperia insider" basically say there won't be next z ultra, at least not in first half of 2015. scroll down to his first twitter message: https://twitter.com/Xperia_Insider
"#MWC15 #SONY #XPERIA #Z4 #Z4COMPACT #Z4TABLET".
is sony betting on 5.5" z4 as an answer for phablet consumers?

Thing is, anyone can just create a username and tweet pretty close information based on random posts and leaks.

Anyways, a 5.5 inch device is probably the response for the 5.5 inch LG G3 and quite possibly the G4 which should be 5.5 as well, unless LG decides to make it bigger for ridiculous reasons.

As for no new Z ultra in 1H of 2015, makes sense, w phablet would best come in the 2nd half, Q3 to battle the next note.

I asked the xperia insider via twitter. He\she said that there is a Xperia Z4 Ultra with same specs as Z4 apart from camera. But he is not sure if it is due to MWC. He said the specs are
6.44 QHD screen
Sd 810
4 gb ram
6.9 mm thickness
Camera unknown.

There are so many ultra-thin tablets out now that I'm presuming Sony will give up on the 'thin' race. Yes, it's great for bragging rights but the optics are compromised.

I think a Z4 Ultra with the current 20.7mp cam will fare better than the Z Ultra. If they increase the Z4 Ultra thickness, shortened the height and included the best camera I think that would do pretty well.
