Xperia Z3 Compact pictures leak,same design as Z1 Compact

While the Z2 is only now available for US customers, Sony is starting to near their 6-month release cycle, which means the upcoming release of the Z3 is inevitable. While Sony skipped a Compact version with the Z2, rumor has it that the Z3 will have a Compact brother, and the latest leaked pictures apparently confirm that.

In the pictures the phone appears to be covered by a clear plastic case, so while thefeatures of it aren't crystal clear, we can still make out the overall figure of the device. So, it looks like this will continue Sony's 2-years-so-far of each device sporting the same overall design as all the others, so don't expect too much in that area. Notwithstanding, you shouldn't fix what's not broken, and the design is beautiful as is.

So, the phone should feature a 4.5' HD display, housing a 2.5 GHz Snapdragon 801 processor paired with 2 GB of RAM, and a 20.7 MP camera. These specs are definitely a notch above all other mini-flagships, but keep in mind the price is accordingly. 

The phone should be announced on September 3 at IFA Berlin, an event which we will cover live, so remember to hope by.
