Hopefully the bad screen hardware will be updated. Almost all tech sites reviewed that the screen has poor contrast ratio, below par viewing angle and color are washed out. This phone is almost perfect. Hoping HTC M7 will have a superior display and I will be sold.

This reminding me X10 which was launched with 1.6 while HTC Desire, Droid was released with 2.X.

The Xperia Z isn't special anymore after HTC One and GS4 comfirm to be released tomorrow for HTC One and in 2 weeks for the GS4.

Not to forget the Terminator Moto Xphone with Android 5.0 the Leader is back.

This is stupid. It should of LAUNCHED with 4.2. I know Sony do a lot for the developer community but they need to have the latest software installed when they release the phone.
