Sony Xperia Z3 and Z3 Compact specs have leaked yet again although there is some more information this time, with the IFA and the official announcements just around the corner this will likely be the last leak we get.
First up there’s the flagship, the Xperia Z3. Phone Arena has got hold of an image supposedly showing the back of the phone, but that’s not all the kicker here is that taped to that back is a spec sheet. According to said note the Xperia Z3 has a 5.2-inch 1080p Triluminos display, just like the Sony Xperia Z2, although unlike the Z2 it can apparently reach 600 nits at peak brightness, which should decrease glare improving outdoor visability.
It’s also shows that it could be powered by a 2.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor and 3GB of RAM, which makes it marginally faster on paper than the 2.3GHz Xperia Z2 and like the Z2 it has 16GB of storage, a microSD card slot and a 20MP camera. It’s also water and dust resistant up to IP55/IP58 like its predecessor and at 146.5 x 72.4 x 7.5mm it’s slightly slimmer and lighter than the Z2, though the 3100 mAh battery is also 100 mAh smaller. All in all it doesn’t sound a bad bit of kit although not hugely different from the last flagship.
More interestingly perhaps for most of you is the Xperia Z3 Compact. AusDroid cites a ‘source familiar with the specifications’ as saying that it has a 4.6-inch 720p display, a 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 processor, a 2600 mAh battery and a 20.7MP camera. The bit that will catch most of your attention though is that it will come in a range of colours, well four to be sure but maybe more. The site also got hold of some pictures and it looks good. It should certainly give the HTC One Mini 2 and the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini a run for their money.
