 "Alleged Sony Honami photo sample leaks online")
Sony’s upcoming Honami smartphone has been appearing quite consistently in the headlines for sometime now. As per the Xperia blog now, a photo sample from Honami has allegedly found its way online. The said image (see below) has been uploaded to Facebook and there is no EXIF information available. Another piece of information on the image is that it has been reportedly taken from a very early prototype of the smartphone, indicating that there are chances of varied results in the future.
Is this from the Honami?
The Sony Honami is believed to be an imaging-centric smartphone. Reports in the past have suggested that the smartphone will come with interchangeable lenses. There have also been reports in the past that suggested that Honami may be coming with a 20.7MP camera with the capability to record 4K videos.
In addition to the sensor, it seems like the company is planning to pair the device with Sony G-Lens.
Honami’s specs sheet suggests that Honami may be coming with a 5-inch 1080p display with a Triluminos display with OptiContrast and X-Reality Engine technologies. The Triluminos display has already been seen in the Xperia Z Ultra.
Sony’s Honami is also rumoured to get full HD resolution for the display. Internally, the Honami should be powered by Qualcomm’s newest Snapdragon 800 SoC. While the quad-core CPU will be clocked at 2.3GHz, the Adreno 330 GPU that will be part of the chipset is definitely the best in the market.
The Honami could come with 2GB of RAM. Internal memory, so far, stands at 16GB, with an option of putting in a microSD card. This is a new development, because earlier talk suggested that the smartphone may come with 32GB of internal memory. Honami could also get a fairly massive 3000 mAh battery to power the show.
