Sony is hopeful that the move towards the 5G technologies will be beneficial in reviving the slow dying smart phone line up.
Till then, the company should keep its standard agenda of releasing smartphones that are always one step behind the competition, featuring displays that never met the word “bezel-less.”
Keeping that in mind, it’s time to know what seems to be Sony’s next big shot for the mobile business – The Xperia XZ4.

Sony Xperia XZ4 appeared today in a couple of fresh CAD-based renders and a 360 degrees video teasing the smart phone appearance and some inquisitive features.
The device will boast a 6.5-inch gigantic notch less display, and if you are already aware of Sony smartphones, you are certain that the company is not highly skilled when it comes to reducing the bezels of its displays.
Sony Xperia XZ4 won’t be an exception, while the side edges are slightly thin, the top and bottom chin have an “ok” size… for a 2017 flagship.
Since Sony Xperia XZ4 is probably launching in CES 2019, there is a great chance that other smartphones featuring in-display cameras, or even notches, steal all the attention. The measurements of 166.9 x 72.4 x 8.2 will make the handset too chunky to compete with full-screen devices. Old fashioned screen bezels are still popular among some users, as it is easier to use, the large part of the audience is fascinated with the bezel less trend.
The Sony Xperia XZ4 will be taller, narrower, than Apple’s iPhone XS Max that is a massive smart phone.
Renders does not reveal the fingerprint scanner, it’s still too early to believe that the Japanese firm will jump in the in-display fingerprint bandwagon. There is a high chance that the company is going back to a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
The scanner will double as Xperia XZ4’s Power button, just like on Xperia XZ1. While the Xperia XZ2 and XZ3 series have switched to a rear-mounted sensor, there is a reason that explains why Sony is moving back the scanner to its former position.
