Sony works on Xperia Z2a smartphone

Sometimes you want to own a smartphone but at the same time you do not want it to be too big. Yet you crave to have the latest in technology out there. The solution is simple – get a smaller version of your favorite smartphone if there’s one of course.

Sony plans to do just that for people who like the Xperia Z2 but want a smaller version. The upcoming Xperia Z2a will do just that – it will be an Xperia Z2, just a bit smaller. The new company smartphone will measure 128 x 65 x 9.6 mm and will be available in black, white and lavender colors.

The Xperia Z2a may not be small enough for some people though – the device will have a 5-inch display at Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels, 443 ppi) and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chip with four Krait 400 cores at 2.5 GHz and Adreno 330 graphics. The rest of the specs include support for LTE, 3 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal memory, a microSD card slot (up to 128 GB), a rear 20.7 MP camera with Exmor RS technology, a BIONZ image processor, a 2 MP front camera, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, DLNA and a 3000 mAh battery.

Impressive, right? Next to that the Xperia Z2a will be running Android 4.4 KitKat. Unfortunately the price of the device is unknown but given its tech specs and the fact that it will be a smaller version of a flagship smartphone the Xperia Z2a will likely be expensive.
