Possible New Rival to ZF3U from SONY in the Making? - Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion

According to the following news article,

Sony might be finally preparing their long overdue rival to the biggest phones on the market aka the real Phablets. It appears we may finally see the successor to the Xperia Z Ultra, which was my first real phablet and then I switched to Huawei P8 Max and now with Asus ZF3U but I think Sony's new phone if it becomes real in January's CES or Feb's MWC 2018 will be a game changer.
I still like my ZF3U but I always thought that the top and bottom bezels could have been reduced to accommodate a larger screen, possibly with a bit of a curve without compromising overall size of the device beyond 7.5" inches (the most ideal Phablet size)
It appears with Sony's new design language changes coming and the claimed size of 7.4" the new device will most likely be my next phone. I hope someone from Sony or Asus will listen and make the next big phone bigger without big bezels and better with flagship specs. Here is what I want to see in the next ZF3U or a Sony XZU Sucessor:
-7.4" 2k or 4k bezelless display preferably with 3D and AR capabilities and dedicated display options, in menu for dpi and other adjustments.
-QC SD 845 CPU
-128GB OR 256GB ROM
-6-8gb RAM
-Dual Sim with dedicated 2nd sim slot-non hybrid slot
-MicroSD card expansion
-Dual front and dual rear cameras positioned in the centre without a bulge to protect the lens and possibly with ZF3 AR style surround for better visuals or with a protective slide cover.
-3.5mm Audio Jack- yes it is a basic feature but we need to keep it
-NFC and IR Blaster (basic features that should now be common and not a wish in this day and age- still not sure why the ZF3U does not have NFC enabled)
-4600 or higher mah battery with quick charge and wireless charge
-Quad Speakers Positioned in all corners or 2 speakers with one on top and one, on bottom with at least the same or higher quality and loudness of the ZF3U
-A STYLUS Pen Integrated into the Phone is long overdue.
-Android 8.1 Near Stock UI with customizations similar to Flyme OS and with the best of the Huawei and Samsung implementations and side menu implementation in phone and all app settings-very useful for navigating settings in an app or phone.
-Dedicated Fingerprint scanner on the rear centre of the device as well as all the other locks such as pin, face, retina, iris etc… . bring it on.
-Dual Type C Ports (Charge and HDMI over Type C)
-Dedicated QWERTY Keyboard Dock style accessory with similar functionality to that of Samsung Dex or Huawei's Mate 10 style display over HDMI.
Thats it from me, enough wishful thinking. Hope somone from Sony, Asus or Huawei reads too. Now lets hear what everyone thinks! Enjoy!

I hope to see a new huge screen phablet with proper band support but I think only Xiaomi will do even with no full support of bands.
I just got my ZenFone 3 ultra to be sure that I will have a big screen phone until something good come to market.
