Users outside of Japan are waiting for the arrival of the freshly released Sony Xperia Z4, which launched to the country this month without making a buzz. The Japan-based manufacturer, however, did not mention plans of bringing the device overseas.
But a new leak suggests the possibility of the handset making it out of Japan. A Chinese website called cnBeta recently shared an image showing a device called the Sony Xperia P2 placed next to the Z4.
The website also posted a list of the device's set of specs, most of which are identical to that of the newly-released model. They have the same 5.2- inch full HD display. Both handsets make use of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor and 3 GB RAM. The P2 is listed to come with a 32 GB model.
Other aspects, however, indicate that the two devices are not one and the same. The most obvious is the design and size. For one, the Z4 looks like a bigger brother to the P2 because of the latter's ultra slim bezels.
Despite this though, the Xperia flagship's 6.9 mm thin body makes the P2 a bit stocky for its 10.9 mm build. However, this thicker form suggests that the handset packs a big battery. CnBeta says it has a 4240 mAh battery unit, which should be huge and powerful, needless to say.
Perhaps the most surprising feature of the P2 is its camera. Sony is fond of integrating 20.7-megapixel rear-facing shooters to its devices. It has become a staple element actually, and the Z4 has one. Interestingly, the Xperia P2 is equipped with only a 12.1-megapixel snapper. Despite this major blow, users can take comfort in the P2's selfie shooter, which is set at 5 megapixels.
For now, all this is uncorroborated. Sony has not said a word about the alleged Sony Xperia P2 although many are already expecting that it will be the Sony Xperia Z4's international version.
