Sony Xperia Z3x

One of the most interesting smartphones we have heard about over the last few weeks is the new rumored Sony Xperia Z3x, the handset is said to come with an impressive set of specifications.
What is notable about the rumored specifications on the Sony Xperia Z3x is the processor, the handset is said to come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 mobile processor clocked at 2.86GHz, which will launch some time later this year.

The Snapdragon 810 is a eight core 64-bit mobile processor, which could end up being Qualcomm’s most powerful mobile processor to date, it features a quad core ARM Cortex A57 and a quad core Cortex A53, the processor will also come with an Adreno 430 GPU. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 will also offer massive download speeds of up to 300 Mbps, thanks to its built in Cat 6 modem.

The new Sony Xperia Z3x is said to feature a 6.14 inch display with an impressive resolution of 2560 x 1152 pixels , plus Android 5.0 L, and the handset will also get a new flagship Sony Exmor RS camera sensor. The new Sony Exmor RS camera is a curved 22 megapixel sensor which will replace the current 20.7 megapixel sensor that Sony currently uses in its high end devices.

The handset will focus heavily on the camera and photography, and it will come with a range of accessories that can be added onto the smartphone to turn it into a fully fledged camera, including lenses, a flash and even a microphone for recording video.

We are not expecting to see the Sony Xperia Z3x launch this year, we will have to wait until early next year to see the device, either at CES in January or MWC in February.

Sony Xperia Z3 Specifications Leaked

We’ve seen a handful of rumors about the alleged Sony Xperia Z3 in the past few days. The alleged handset turned up at the FCC.
Now we have some more details about the Sony Xperia Z3. Recently, the notorious leaker @evleaks released some specifications of the upcoming Sony Xperia Z3 with a model number D6653.

According to @evleaks, the alleged handset will come with a 5.15 inch display sporting a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, with a quad-core Snapdragon 801 SoC clocked at 2.4Ghz with 3GB of RAM on board. The same report mentions it will come with a 16GB of RAM with a microSD card slot for expansion, as well as a 20.7MP rear camera for photos and videos, as well as a 2MP front-facing camera.
On the software side, the alleged handset is said to come with Android 4.4 KitKat as its operating system. There’s no confirmation, but if these are the real specifications, it may turn out to be a big disappointment for Xperia fans out there. It’s almost the same as the Xperia Z2, and there’s no QHD display, which is becoming normal for most flagships these days. LG G3 rocks a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, and Samsung also launched the QHD version of their Samsung Galaxy S5.
