The Xperia XA2 Ultra is one of the many smartphones
that Sony plans to reveal in Q1 2018. Previously leaked as Sony H4233, the
device was recently spotted at the Malaysian regulatory agency SIRIM with its
real name.
Now, we have a couple of live pictures showing the
phone's front and back sides. Despite rumors that Sony will completely redesign
its Xperia lineup, the Xperia XA2 Ultra doesn't show any signs of improvement
from this point of view.
It's true, the phone comes with really thin bezels
on the left and right sides, but the chins are as thick as the previous Xperia
models. Still, this seems to be a mid-range device, so previous reports
claiming we should expect bezel-less Xperia phones this year might be accurate,
but only when it comes to top-tier handsets.
Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra is said to feature a 6-inch
full HD (1080p) display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 processor, paired with
4GB RAM and 64GB expandable storage. Also, the phone comes with a 21-megapixel
main camera, dual selfie cameras, and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.
The pictures leaked today confirm Sony will include
Android 8.0 Oreo on the Xperia XA2 Ultra. It's yet unclear whether or not the
phone will go official at CES (Consumers Electronics Show) 2018 early this
month or in late February at MWC (Mobile World Congress) trade fair.
