Next-gen Sony Xperia XA leaked with little flair

What’s the issue, you ask? It’s just not bold — at least, if you’ve seen other Xperia releases of late.

Steve Hemmerstoffer’s @OnLeaks channel on Twitter has posted some graphic renders of what appears to be the successor to the Sony Xperia XA. No silicon was mentioned, just dimensions: 145 x 66.8 x 7.99mm with a 5-inch screen and USB Type-C.

The short-radius corners smooth out sharper ones found on this year’s releases, but there was a bit of borrowing when it button (hooray for the shutter button!) and camera orientation.

Do we want to get excited for another Xperia? While predictable phones, they can be reliably steady.

Moto M leaked once again with some specification conflicts

The Moto M will be introduced a week from today and we thought that we had all the leaks we needed to know about it. For one, there was going to be a huge battery. For another thing, the phone would at least come to some areas outside of China.

Well, NowhereElse.Fr‘s Steve Hemmerstoffer has put out another wild leak thanks to a source and he has disclosed specifications, some of which go against what we’ve heard prior to today.


There’s a possibility that some geographic regions will get either a Qualcomm or a MediaTek chipset, but it was believed that the Helio P10 would be used in Moto M units with the latter. Instead, we find that the updated P15 will be used — a minor, but appreciable update to the mid-ranger SoC. But another distinction is the battery: 3,050mAh versus the 5,100mAh we heard before.


Here’s the thing, though: it turns out that the leaked spec placard we believed was for the Moto M is actually for the Lenovo P2. While the 5.5-inch full HD is a shared spec here, we welcome the development of a sure 4GB of RAM. The rest of the spec sheet — the 32GB of storage, the 13- (or 16, depending on which pictures you believe) and 8-megapixel cameras — is pretty okay.

There are plenty of expectations to manage, even for a couple of phones that sound like mid-rangers. We should hope to clear and clarify things as best as we can before these products launch.

LG LV5 leaked, but all is not what it seems

Well, look at what Steve Hemmerstoffer dragged in…@OnLeaks on Twitter has visuals on another LG phone that may catch our attention, but a name that needs a little more of it. The so-called LV5 may be called something else, but there are a couple of details about the phone that skeeve us out like the rather boring, eggshell-ish, almost amateurishly plain back shell and some weird curvature on the front face.Awaiting a fresh new flagship leak, this is roughly what the ...
