Sony (SNE) tried to get out ahead of rival smartphone manufacturers in 2013 by showing off pictures of its two new smartphones on its website. These upcoming 1080 5-inchers are known as the Xperia Z and ZL, formerly known as Yuga and Odin respectively.
Both devices are rumored to feature 5-inch 1080p LCDs, quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro processors with 2 GB of RAM and Adreno 320 graphics, as well as having IP57 qualification for dust and water resistance.
