Sony Xperia XZ1 rear panels show extra large hole for the flash

15 August 2017
Or is it just for the flash? Perhaps there will be additional hardware for focus, color spectrum or something else.

      Walle77, 17 Aug 2017If sony changes the ugly bazel i will buy I will wait until the manufacturer use the Gorilla Glass 10 version for bezel-less smartphone then I will consider buy the bezel-less smartphone, because the bezel-less smartphone is expensive and fragile than normal phone can't bear any deep impact.

                      The phone might have big bezel since the body size is too big for 5.2 inch screen

                            It's for NFC. It's on the back once again

                              They should lower the resolution to 12MP but keep the same sensor size, and increase the aperture to around 1.6. They should also improve the speed of the software so the camera starts up faster and captures/saves pictures faster. I hope they add OIS to complement the EIS.

                                  Could be the long awaited return of the xenon flash, about time!

                                      I don't see a camera bump which makes me really happy. The housing also looks just a bit thicker than XZs/Premium, so they might have actually listened to user feedback and made the phone thicker to remove the camera bump and maybe fit a bigger battery in it.
                                      The large cut out is strange though, might be for better antenna reception or NFC? Because it seems to actually be all metal this time around and I don't see plastic trims for antennas so...
                                      I do hope they move the NFC to the back, becuase it's just stupid having it on the front in XZ.

                                        There is chance to see better cam controls.
                                        Like shutter longer than 1s..
