              Wish such compact mid-range devices are launched in India, too. No such options available here.

                    Take my money now.

                      if this uses the 775 chipset, im in for two. one to replace my now very old galaxy and my wife needs a smaller phone, she is always dropping her S20, her hands are small.

                        Flagship chipset device nowadays are too damn expensive, its like their excuse to put the price above $1000.

                              Hopefully will be like xz1 compact size with 3000mah battery. Actually like the current xperia 5 with 15mm shorter already a great size.

                                About bloody time too! Come on Sony, don't mess this up, keep it to a maximum of 65mm width and don't stretch it to the length of a dinner spoon for your lousy 21:9 ratio.
