Upcoming full-screen Xperia smartphones leak in images
Two new Xperia
smartphones have leaked, sporting the in vogue fullscreen bezel-less designs.
The images come courtesy GizChina.com, who are confident these are indeed
images and not renders.
The two devices not just look different from
current Xperia devices but also between each other. One device has the current
squarish Xperia design with what look like speaker grilles at the top and
bottom on the front. On the back is a very unique looking curved matte and
glossy surface, with the matte regions forming semicircles at the top and
bottom. The glossy area in the center is supposed to be glass with a
fingerprint sensor underneath. The two camera modules are oddly spread apart,
which probably means one is just a depth sensor as this much spacing would
result in much larger parallax for any other arrangement.
The other device has more pronounced rounded
corners but with the same stereo speaker arrangement on the front. It does have
a uniform metal back with the fingerprint sensor prominently in the center. In
the top left is a dual camera system along with the flash on the side. Both
phones are supposed to have a 5.7-inch, 18:9 4K displays. They'll also be one
of the first devices to have Snapdragon 845, and have 6GB of RAM and Android
8.0.
To tell the truth, these do kinda look
sketchy. However, their outlandishness is almost a point in their favor as
anyone making a fake would normally make them look believable or close to
existing Xperia designs. Still, I would take these with a pinch of salt. We
will probably find out for sure at CES or MWC.
