Are these Xperia Z3 Neo internal render pics ?

A moment ago we posted some pics linking to Xperia Z4 internal renders, found in an email available at WikiLeaks. Well, now few more pics have been spotted in the same email document which now link to Xperia Z3 Neo (possibly Sony E6553).

A few days back it was tipped that Sony E6553 might be Xperia Z3 Neo and not the Xperia Z4 as it was thought. Xperia Z3 Neo seems to be a minor upgrade over Xperia Z3 in terms of design and specs. Design may change at the time of launch, internal visuals are for design purpose only at the very early stage.

Xperia Z3 Neo Internal Renders

Check out the internal renders of Xperia Z3 Neo below. You can see in the below pic that there is no flap along the right side and the same case is with Sony E6553 too. Pic annotation says, “Xperia Z The fourth Generation”.

T-Mobile Xperia Z1s C6916 14.5.B.0.228 Lollipop firmware certified

A new Android 5.0.2 Lollipop 14.5.B.0.228 firmware has been certified for T-Mobile Xperia Z1s C6916 handset at PTCRB over older 14.5.B.0.220 firmware which was certified in April starting. A few days back Sony rolled Android 5.0.2 14.5.A.0.242 firmware update on global variant of Xperia Z1.

14.5.B.0.228 firmware will move Xperia Z1s to Android 5.0.2 from Android 4.4.4 KitKat 14.4.B.0.56 firmware. No ETA is there when the update will be rolled on the carrier handset in USA.

Check out the 14.5.B.0.228 firmware certification for Xperia Z1s C6916 on PTCRB.

Sony earlier pulled Android Lollipop update from some regions within a day of rolling it on Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z2 (because of some bugs) and then released another bug fixing update; 14.5.B.0.228 firmware seems to do the same thing over 14.5.B.0.220 firmware (which was never released).

Sony has already rolled Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update on Xperia “Z3” and Xperia “Z2” series in the form of 23.1.A.0.690 firmware and is now available worldwide.

Sony will also give Lollipop update to Xperia T2 Ultra and Xperia C3, 19.3.A.0.468 firmware has been certified for both handsets already.

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.

Sony’s going all metal with the #Z4. Iconic power button getting a refresh too with a built in touch finger print sensor. Out September.

— ViziLeaks (@vizileaks) April 16, 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.

Issue/Error: Not able to set lockscreen security settings as “None/Slide” back once you have set it to “PIN/Password”.

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:

By the way, none of the ‘Z4 leaks’ are Z4 leaks. Sony has different plans 😉 #sayhellotoZ3neo

— ViziLeaks (@vizileaks) April 13, 2015

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.

What do you think guys, let us know. Do you want Xperia Z3 Neo or Xperia Z4? Drop your comments below.
