We are sure you haven't forgotten Sony's Xperia smartphone glory and their devices from back then. The Japanese manufacturer was highly popular for introducing Xperia branded handsets in both large and small screen sizes, especially when it comes to their flagship devices. The company followed a trend of announcing their frontrunners with bigger displays and they were partnered by a Compact model that traited smaller screen displays featuring almost similar internals from it's pricier sibling.
So now when coming to the new story we heard from phoneArena.com the Tokyo based multinational telecommunications company, is reportedly in plans of launching a new smartphone that is supposedly bringing back the long faded away Compact series from Sony Mobile. We learn that it's not going to be the same for Sony and their Compact fleet as the phone maker seems to be drifting their concentration to a high-end mid-ranger rather than small screen flagship according the ostensibly out details.
We don't really know about the authenticity of this latest report that just showed up, but as always taking it with a pinch salt, Sony is allegedly working on a new smartphone and we may see a device that measures about 60mm x 138mm around the body, that should be slightly slimmer and recognizably shorter compared to the present Sony Xperia 5. The smartphone is also said to carry the same tall 21:9 aspect ratio like it's predecessors. Lastly, the purported Xperia Compact is even expected to come out of the box powered by a next generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 processor.
