Sony’s next flagship smartphone is expected to be officially unveiled on September 4 at the company’s IFA 2014 press conference. However, aside from the Xperia Z3, which will be showcased at the trade fair, the Japanese company is likely to introduce additional products, such as other smartphones and one tablet.
One of the Android smartphones that Sony plans to announce in just a few days, along with its flagship handset, is the Xperia Z3 Compact. Although these Compact models are in fact mini versions of Sony’s top-tier smartphones, they come with high-end features as well. This means that beside the smaller display, they are hardly different in terms of specs. While the Xperia Z3 will be Sony’s best smartphone until the Xperia Z4 is unveiled early next year, the Compact model is aimed at those who can’t afford to buy the most powerful smartphone launched by the handset maker or who prefer smaller screens. Anyway, before judging Sony for making it hard for customers to choose a smartphone from its new lineup of high-end devices, let’s see what the Xperia Z3 Compact is likely to offer. According to the latest details on the phone’s specs sheet, which recently leaked via AusDroid, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact will be equipped with a powerful 2.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor.
Those who were expecting the smartphone to pack a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 chipset inside will probably be disappointed, but we’re pretty sure the Xperia Z3 Compact’s price would have been much higher if Sony had chosen that piece of hardware. A source familiar with Sony’s Xperia Z3 Compact also claims that the handset will boast an impressive 20.7-megapixels camera with LED flash, autofocus and video recording. The smartphone will also be powered by a high-capacity 2600 mAh battery and will only be compatible with Nano SIMs. The Xperia Z3 Compact is likely to be waterproof, just like most of Sony’s high-end smartphones. More importantly, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact is said to sport a 4.6-inch capacitive touchscreen display that supports HD (720p) resolution. Nothing else has been leaked in regards with the phone’s specs sheet, but two press photos showing the alleged Xperia Z3 Compact have been published as well.
As shown in the pictures, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact will be available for purchase in multiple colors, including black, white, green and orange. What do you think about Xperia Z3 Compact’s partial specs sheet? Would you pick this one instead of Sony’s flagship smartphone?
