Sony Xperia i1
The Sony Xperia Z1 is now the name of what tech bloggers were calling the Sony Xperia i1 Honami. Now that the device has the right moniker, it looks like it will be getting a release date in India just a week after the IFA 2013 consumer electronics show in Berlin, which means that other countries could expect to see the camera-centric Xperia Z1 (Honami) releasing nearby soon as well.
Good news for anyone who hates the name of the Sony Xperia i1 Honami: a new leak may have revealed a new name for the device—the much simpler Sony Xperia Z1.
Sony will reveal the new device two days before the start of IFA 2013 in Berlin.
New photos show that the device will have 4K support, as well as a white model of the Honami.
While the Xperia Z and its Ultra variant are rolling out across the globe, the next big thing from Sony, the Xperia i1, has been hitting the tech rumor mill. There have been leaked renders and leaked photos that turn out not to be true, but this time, it's a leaked photo that looks to be the Xperia i1. The photo was leaked on the Chinese mega website Sina Weibo, and also put up online by Boy Genius Report.
