Sony to unveil 6.4in Xperia smartphone at MWC?

Sony blew us away with its new 1080p screened Xperia Z at CES – and it looks ready to do it all over again, at Mobile World Congress next month, with its first 6.44in smartphone-cum-tablet.

This picture was posted by Digi-wo, a Chinese forum, showing the screen of a 6.4in handset – which it claims is a smartphone not a tablet. It reckons the device will sport a 1080p display and no physical front navigation buttons, like the Xperia Z.

Will this be the new Samsung Galaxy Note 2 challenger or is that size going to leave it in no man’s land? And with the Xperia Tablet Z – the world's thinnest and lightest slate – on its way, will anyone need this sized handset? Let us know in the comments below.

    I think it is going to be a good year for phones, no?

    It is going to be a great year...but 6.whatever is waaaaay to big for a phone. I have a 4.8 and I think that's enough. Oh well...different tastes out there!

    *FINALLY*
    I tried the Galaxy Tab 7
    I put it into my suit pocket
    It fit fine!
    I then tried the GT7.7 with better specs,
    but it was 1cm too wide
    with smaller bezel it would fit
    6.44" Sony (waterproof) FHD
    with Key Lime Pie
    could very likely be my NXT Android phone
    but I'll still wait and see
    if the Galaxy Tab 3 migh be better with pen
    ???
