Said to be Japanese firm's flagship device for 2013.

Sony's flagship smartphone for 2013, the Yuga, has been showcased in leaked images which purportedly confirms a 5-inch HD display.

Otherwise known as the Sony C6603, the phone boasts a 5-inch, full HD display with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. It's said to be Sony's flagship device for 2013.

Android-Schweiz managed to obtain a few images of the Sony Yuga, showing a handset that features a glass front and rear. The sealed glass chassis essentially means there's no access to the battery, but the Yuga does apparently deliver a microSD card slot and HDMI port.

The Sony Yuga reportedly runs on Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean, accompanied up by a 1.5GHz quad-core processor and 2GB RAM, in addition to a 12 megapixel camera situated on the device's back.

As for Sony's flagship Xperia device for next year, 'Odin' is said to have 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM7227A CPU and an Adreno 200 GPU.

    Yay, more pixels! You can't actually see them, and they drain your battery quicker, and likely cause games to have less content, but oh well, more pixels!

    If you want the not 2 , then GET it .. the special thing about the Note 2 is the Digitizer pen . you wont find this on ANY other devices.

    and 1080P on 5.5 inch wont make a difference. thats just commercial. do you really think you can tell the difference on 5.5 inch screen ?

    and I tell you somthing. this is a PHONE not a Tablet. has low Memory , do you really expect to put 1080p movies there ?

    I am not saying it is bad. but for the Pen? the choice is CLEAR !

    add to this the Note2 price now is lower. dont waste time WAITING. and dont look back after you buy the NOTE 2.

    coz it is ENOUGH for a PHONE !

    2G RAM , Quad Core , Amoled display , a digitizer pen , SD card and Android 4.1 ... eh what do you want more ?

    the 1080P ? NOT WORTH THE WAIT !!! it is FIVE INCH ! you wont tell the difference without a magnifier.

    dont be silly ... my Opinion.

I think I should wait nowEveryone is coming out with a 1080p screen in 2013. Samsung and LG announced 1080 screens for their 2013 phones. Probably will launch with their Samsung Galaxy S4. The Droid DNA will be the first 1080 phone, but no removable battery is just such a killer for me. Also, I don't even know if the Droid DNA will have a SD card slot, which is also a very big con. I suggest get the Note2 (it's a great phone) and just upgrade in 2014. By 2014, I'm pretty sure Samsung will come out with their flexible screens and even crazier functions.
