Sony is reportedly gearing up to launch its new flagship smartphone — Sony Xperia 2. Now, ahead of the launch, battery capacity of the device has been leaked online, which will allegedly be 4,400mAh.

However, do note that are multiple reports related the smartphone’s name and thus, the phone could also go official as the Xperia 0, Xperia 1.1, or Xperia 5. The leak about the 4,400mAh battery comes as the image of the phone’s battery surfaces online through Chinese microblogging platform Weibo.

If this report turns out to be true, then the battery capacity on the Xperia 2 will be a significant as well as a much-needed upgrade over its predecessor Xperia 1 which packs 3,300mAh battery. Although that was pretty low in terms of battery capacity, it wasn’t much of an issue because of the company’s battery management.

Apart from the battery capacity, it is said that the Sony Xperia 2 will come with a 4K resolution display, offering 21:9 aspect ratio — same as the Xperia 1. As for the display size, the phone will reportedly come with a 6.6-inch panel, larger than the predecessor.

Further, the smartphone is also said to be capable of the latest 5G communication. This could explain the larger capacity battery as the next generation of cellular connectivity consumes more power than 4G LTE.

The Sony Xperia 2 will reportedly be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC along with Snapdragon X55 modem. It will come packed with up to 12GB of RAM and will be running Android 10 operating system out-of-the-box.

As for the camera setup, the device is said to have a 64-megapixels or 48-megapixels primary sensor along with a 12-megapixels ultra-wide-angle camera, a 12-megapixels telephoto unit, and a Time Of Flight sensor. On the front side, the smartphone will be equipped with an 8-megapixel snapper.

The phone will reportedly have an IP68 rating too and will also feature NFC connectivity. Rumors also indicate a side-mounted fingerprint sensor along with a headphone jack. Some reports indicate that the phone will cost around $900.

This is what we know so far about Sony’s upcoming flagship smartphone. We expect to know more about the device as the launch near. The company has also scheduled a launch event at MWC 2020 and the phone could go official there.
