Anonymous, 01 Jul 2013That is an issues that any phone can face and has happened ... moreNot very functional to me if i cannot use in landscape mode!

Fat phones demand landscape usage! I refuse to see giant phone UI.

AFAIK, android in plablet / tablet size range is terrible.. does not take advantage of the extra screen size at all.. just bloat everything up.. Good for oldman eyes.. but not pleasing at all!

      Triluminos display bla bla bla, bravia engine bla bla bla, cybershot bla bla bla all this stupid marketing terminology will not make your phone sell, make a proper display like others not rubbish TFT, xperia z has same Exmor rs as S4 but it has one of the most crappiest photos in a smartphone

        It is not wide spread with any of them however. Especially Note2. And TW is a very nice very functional UI. It's just not as much eye candy. Oh no the end of the world.

          Sony UI is the most laggiest of all, they are letting Android down, just check xperia z and tablet z UI, its stuttering too much

            As far as lack of flash in ZU and only 3,000MAH battery that was a slap in the face. I however highly doubt this will end up like that.
            I suggest to wait and see between this and Note3 at least as well, but they will all be good.

                    Maybe this will not have flash on camera too, and some lacklustre display screen, typical Sony, never learn, so many returns for Sony phones, i will suggest waiting for Note 3, HTC or LG with much better specs and standard

                      Looks to be a very amazing step up for Sony.

                      Though I doubt it will be any where near as thin as the ZU and have any decent working 20MP or do 4K video.
                      It will definitely be thicker to have good optics. And with that thickness they can easily include Xenon and led, a reasonably sized battery"ZU battery ratio is terrible even with stamina", and dual speaker.

                      Also I'm all for getting the the 4K, but on such a display it's kind of a useless space hog beyond the perception of our eyes. However if they do use it they better step up the storage options.

                      Overall promises to be amazing. The thing I'm most interested in is seeing X reality in this and in ZU. "fill in missing pixels? That is nice".

                            doesn't really look like a new UI but just a different theme added to the small widgets and a color change. Personally i love the Sony UI.
