Also Z3 remains the only high end offering from Sony left for this year. No other high end devices.

What about that rumored WP8.1 phone in July, does it count?
AFAIK there was no high end WP8 device planned by Sony Mobile. There were some ODM devices that were to run WP8.1 but I have no updates on their progress at this stage.
Well, that sucks, I was hoping for something in 2014. It seems Sony does not want to risk a penny on android alternatives, while samsung just released its first tizen phone... |

So maybe we'll see an announcement at mobile Asia expo this year again. That would mean that the new ultra will be announced 12-13 June |

It is the next ultra cause sony just confirmed it = "the next big thing". 
so the leaked metal frame was of the new ultra, not z3... it has the same dimensions of the leaks.
i hope that the new ultra will get the z2's camera and flash.

Could this mystery device use the SD 805? The Z Ultra was the first device from Sony to use the SD 800 so would probably seem logical providing Qualcomm have the chip ready for use.
I'm so happy 'cause today

I am sure it is just the angle or the style here, but it almost looks like 2 pieces of glass, sandwitching metal in the middle. Personally not sure what I'd prefer, z ultra or 8 inch tablet.
If the device ships with QHD, then the SD805 would make sense.
If its anywhere near 7 inches, then using as a phone will look like this.

whatever it is in the end, I hope Sony didn't opt to cripple the camera and add no flash or not opt for the 20.7 sensor.
edit, teaser timeline seems to be similar as with previous ZU, if anything is too leak, should be in the next 2-3 weeks.

As per some leaks z2/z3 ultra will have pretty much same size as z ultra but will house a bigger screen!
And as ultra series is meant for 1 year cycle it would be much more logical for Sony to go with the latest S805 in it.
That would mean S805 in z3 too at IFA unless Sony wants to dive away from two flagship/yr strategy. |

Could this be the screen in the the next Z Ultra or what ever that device is? Found it on the JDI website, the only thing that would'nt add up would be a smaller screen @ 6.2 inch.
