First look at Xperia Z4 – Hands on Videos

Sony Xperia Z4 finally marked its appearance today in Japan after several rumors floating in. Looking at Xperia Z4, one can say it is a combo of Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z2 in terms of design. A minor upgrade over Xperia Z3, though calling it a next flagship device seems unrealistic.

It features 20.7 MP camera 25mm wide-angle, 1 / 2.3 inch size sensor (ISO 12800). It features 5.1 MP front camera (25mm wide-angle).

Xperia Z4 to have touch finger print sensor & metal design

A few days back we heard that all leaks associated with Sony E6553 could be of Xperia Z3 Neo rather than Xperia Z4 and now few more leaks associated with Xperia Z4 design and release date have been revealed.

As per @ViziLeaks, Sony will be using a metal design for Xperia Z4 (previously they used glass). Sony signature power button in Xperia Z4 gets a refreshed design with built-in touch finger print sensor.

Xperia Z4 design info

As seen in the tweet made by @ViziLeaks, Xperia Z4 is tipped to come out in Septemeber, hopefully at IFA 2015.

Well, still it is not clear that is Sony going to two introduce two Xperia devices i.e. Xperia Z3 Neo & Xperia Z4 within such short period of time or only Xperia Z4.

As we have seen touch finger print sensor in recently launched HTC One M9+, Samsung Galaxy S6, iPhone 6 and now Sony putting a touch finger print sensor in Xperia Z4, it seems a cool idea to us but inbuilt in power button, will it be able to function properly.

Below are the photos which have been leaked so far of Sony E6553 (hopefully Xperia Z3 Neo not Xperia Z4)

What do you think guys, is going all metal and putting touch finger print sensor in Xperia Z4 is a good idea. Let us know.

Are we seeing Xperia Z3 Neo or Xperia Z4 ? Confusion arises for Sony E6553

Sony E6553 which was tagged as Xperia Z4 by various number of leaks which were spotted has taken a u-turn now. As per the latest update from @ViziLeaks, leaks linking to Xperia Z4 is not of Xperia Z4 actually but for Sony Xperia Z3 Neo.

Xperia Z3 Neo or Xperia Z4, confusion arises for the model number Sony E6553, as the title says. Earlier Xperia Z4 leaks came from @OnLeaks which has a very strong reputation of outing authentic info and now @ViziLeaks says we might be looking at Sony Xperia Z3 Neo rather than Xperia Z4.

Xperia Z3 Neo or Xperia Z4?

Check out the tweet made by @ViziLeaks:

If it is true then we might be looking at an upgraded version of flagship Xperia Z3 now. Sony has already launched dual SIM variant of Xperia Z3 in many markets.

As the design of Sony E6553 looks very similar to Xperia Z3 except some minor changes like capless micro USB port, one single flap on left side, it may or may not refer to Xperia Z3 Neo.

Below are the photos which have been leaked so far of Sony E6553 (Xperia Z3 Neo or Xperia Z4?)

We will keep you updated once more info comes in regarding the clarification of the original name for model number Sony E6553.
