Rumour says Sony is set to unveil a range of new smart phones at the IFA 2016, which is scheduled to be held in the first week of September. It is expected to be a continuation of the Xperia Z series but with newer features.
Two devices namely, Sony F8331 and F8332 have been suggested to be a part of the release. Although, these aren’t reliably declared as the official names of the phones; due to the closeness between the two suggested model numbers, they seem to be belonging to the same family.
As per reports, the alleged Sony devices will be equipped with 5.1 – inch 1080p display and Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor along with a 3GB RAM and 32GB internal memory. The phone will also consist of a 21MP rear camera and a 12MP front – facing camera. However, the device will run on the same old Android 6.0.1.
What interestingly further confirms the rumour is that the model number, F8331 is the same as the one that recently showed up on GFX Bench. The report hails from Yibada, however; there is no other additional information provided on this matter.
Sony introduced Xperia X range of smart phones during MWC earlier this year. We’ll probably have to wait and watch whether this speculation is true and if it is -- will it be able to fuel the much – needed spark that Sony requires at the moment?
