 "New leak hints at September 4 launch for Sony Honami mini")
There has been quite a bit of speculation around Sony working on a mini version of its upcoming flagship smartphone, the Xperia Z1. The Z1, aka Honami, is all set to be unveiled on September 4. A new leak now supposedly gives us a first look at the Honami mini as well as a hint about its unveiling date.
A post by an XDA-developer, Xleaky, has now shown blurred images of an unnamed Sony phone being placed next to a Blackberry Q10. Along with the picture is a post which says, “You didn’t see this from me… but 4th of Sep is gonna be exciting! Thats all I’m saying!”
The image does not give much detail about the Sony handset displayed,though, apart from a rough estimate of its size. From what can be seen, the alleged Sony Honami mini seems a bit smaller from the Q10, which measures 119.6 x 66.8mm.

From what is known so far, the device, reportedly bearing the code-name Ray 3, might sport a 4.3-inch Triluminos 720p display. Internally the smartphone could pack a 2.2.GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC, a processor that the Xperia Z1 is also expect to sport. Other features like 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage expandable via a microSD card as well as a 2,400mAh battery have been hinted at.
The most intriguing point of the Honami-mini could be that it sports a 20.7-megapixel camera, the same as its bigger brother. From what is known so far, the mini will come with the same Sony G lens, f/2.0 aperture and 1/2.3-inch sensor being sported by Xperia Z1. Whether the smaller Honami is actually fact is still uncertain. All told, it definitely looks like September is going to be an interesting month for smartphone enthusiasts.
