The Sony is preparing a new high-end smartphone for the beginning of 2019. A 3D rendering revealing are very elongated design has been released. Huawei and Samsung are not alone in providing new high-end smartphones for the beginning of 2019. Sony is also preparing with its Xperia XZ4, as shown by the publication of 3D renderings by Onleaks and MySmartPrice, which reveals the design of the floret.
Screen 21: 9 without notch
Since the beginning of 2017, there has been a trend towards extending smartphone screens, often by trimming on the margins around the slab. We have seen the emergence of the 18: 9 format, then 19: 9, often accompanied by a notch for the latter.
Sony would like to go further and offer a screen of 6.5 inches in the format 21: 9 and without notch, on his Xperia XZ4. This gives a screen of 152 x 65 mm. For comparison, the screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 , with its 18.5: 9 format, measures 146 x 71 mm.
We can note on the images that the edges seem a little thicker than the competition, but nothing that should hinder the use.
Triple photo sensor and fingerprint reader
The leaks proposed by OnLeaks concern only the plans of the smartphone, not its characteristics. We can only comment on the appearance of the device. Here we notice that for the first time at Sony, the smartphone would be equipped with three photo sensors.
We can also note the absence of fingerprint reader on the back of the device, that's good as it was misplaced on the XZ2 and XZ3 series of 2018. According to the images, the fingerprint reader seems integrated on the edge, as on previous generations of Sony smartphone. Finally, the phone obviously includes a USB Type-C, but the jack is missing images.
No trace of the XZ4 Compact
Unless surprise, the Sony Xperia XZ4 should be unveiled at the MWC 2019 at the end of February. For now, rumors do not mention Xperia XZ4 Compact, but we hope that the Japanese brand will offer a smartphone for those who will not adept at the elongated design.
Each year the Sony Compact model is the most relevant smartphone manufacturer on the market, and the one that stands out the most competition, other brands refusing to offer miniature models of their flagships. *Report an error in the text
