EvLeaks publishes details and image Sony Xperia XZ2

EVLeaks has revealed details of the Xperia XZ2 and the Xperia XZ2 Compact and published an image of the XZ2. Sony’s upcoming high-end smartphone is characterized by thinner screen edges compared to previous Xperias.

In addition, the corners are less sharp and the back has a slight curvature, which previous photos and a teaser from Sony also hinted at. Both the thinner bezels at the top and bottom of the screen and a less rectangular design are new to Sony’s Xperia line. The Xperia XZ2 has a 5.7″ screen and the Compact edition has a 5″ screen.

In both cases, according to Evan Blass of EVLeaks, it concerns LCDs with a 1080p resolution, 18:9 aspect ratio and Gorilla Glass 5. Both devices would also have a 19-megapixel camera with f/1.8 lens. The cameras are capable of recording 4k video with HDR and they support so-called super slow motion recordings. At the back is the fingerprint reader and the processor is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. The devices have stereo speakers on the front.

There is a difference in the battery capacity. That of the XZ2 is 3180mAh and this smartphone supports wireless charging. The XZ2 Compact has to do with a battery capacity of 2870mAh and can only be charged via USB-C. This Sunday, Sony will probably officially unveil the smartphones at the start of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
