After Sony finally dropped its latest Xperia line called Sony Xperia X Performance in Taiwan on June 15, the waiting game for the mobile phone's release date continues in different parts of the world.

Sony's newest smartphone device that reportedly spearheaded the big smartphone lineup upgrade of the Japanese electronics manufacturing company is equipped with the current top-of-the-line chipset from Qualcomm.

Aside from its improved internal features, it boasts of a high-quality camera function that could help users capture crisp images even if the target is in constant motion.

According to the product description posted on Sony Mobile's official page, the new "Xperia X Performance boasts our new flagship camera, which is our smartest and fastest yet. With quicker response times, more intelligent focus, and a new highly adaptive shutter speed, you get clearer shots in the toughest situations."

It comes with the company's newest camera technology called the Predictive Hybrid Autofocus that could predict the subject's next movement to achieve the best results.

"You select a focus object, and your camera tracks it automatically as it moves, the product description said. The focus stays clear and your subject stays sharp. So even if you can't predict where the shot is headed, your smartphone can."

While Taiwanese consumers can now enjoy the awesome camera features of the new Sony Xperia X Performance, rumors claim that those in India can start purchasing their own units beginning Wednesday, June 22. But the company is still mum about the alleged release date.

Meanwhile, those in the U.S. can start purchasing the device via some of the country's biggest retailers like Amazon, B&H, and Best Buy on July 17, according to GSM Arena. Those in the U.S. should expect to spend as much as $700 to acquire the said device.
