Are these Xperia Z3, Xperia Z3 Compact leaked photos ?

Sony came up with Xperia Z2 at MWC 2014 and Xperia Z1 Compact at CES 2014 but now it seems Xperia Z2 Compact was never a real deal as some alleged photos of Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact are spotted. A close up of so called white Xperia Z3 and a black Xperia Z3 Compact besides it are seen in the pic, courtesy of Digi-Wo, having a good record of leaking Xperia handsets.

As per the rumored specifications of Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact, both are expected to run on Snapdragon 801 processor, 3 GB RAM and 1080p display screen. Take these rumored specifications and below posted images with a pinch of salt as no confirmation on authenticity of pics is there.

Black Xperia Z3 Compact

Checking above pics it looks the design is very much similar to Xperia T3 ( launched recently ). We are not expecting any flagship devices from Sony till September ( IFA 2014 event ) and yes H2 2014 flagship device has to come sure as per Sony’s policy of two flagship models per year.

We are expecting Xperia Z3 from Sony but a Z3 Compact will be great if it comes. What do you think guys about Xperia Z3 Compact. Drop your comments below.
