Yongnuo announced this new APS-C E-mount lens that will be available soon on their Amazon page.
SonyAlphaBlog tested the lens and concluded:
The Yongnuo 23mm F1.4 DA DSM WL (268 euros) is a very good lens overall : very good ergonomics (including a wireless remote) very good AF , build quality , very good centre sharpness, color rendering, nice bokeh wide open
The improvements are related to level of CA, corners sharpness and bokeh as of F2
Alternatives: If you want the best 23mm in term of sharpness then the Sigma 23mm F1.4 DC DN (499 euros) offers excellent sharpness results on the entire field
Two youtube reviews:
On January 6, Brightin Star will announce this new 85mm f/1.8 E-mount autofocus lens. Another unexpected announcement, because according to BHphoto we already have 33!!! 85mm prime E-mount lenses.

A new soruce shared the possible specs of the rumored 400mm f/2.8 GM II. Just to be clear, this is not a rumor I got from trusted sources so be skeptical on this one until I can confirm or deny it:
Sony is going to make an announcement this Winter of the 400GMII lens in advancement of the 2025 NFL season & 2026 Winter Olympics.
It will have a drop-in 1.4x TC like the new Nikon 400mm 2.8, and with advances in materials it will weigh 100 grams less even with the built in TC.
Less busy Bokeh, and Quad XD-Liner motors for more accurate AF-C hit rate on erratic subjects.
Lens will be fully unveiled in May 2025, with shipping before the NFL 2025 season.
What do you think about those rumored updates?
