Purple Sony Xperia Z3 confirmed by live images

To keep the Xperia Z3 in the news while working on the next generation, Sony is about to release a Purple version of the current flagship. Live images have surfaced of the lighter of two purple shades, leaked a week ago.

The color has been a customary option of the Z-series, until Sony decided to drop it with the Xperia Z3. The more formal Black and White versions were instead complemented by Copper and Silver green. Traditions, apparently, still are what they used to be and Purple has seen a comeback, perhaps in hopes of triggering Valentine's day purchases for the significant others.

We are, however, more focused on the upcoming Xperia Z4, which is expected to be announced at the MWC in the beginning of March. The launch is eagerly anticipated as previous generations have mostly brought incremental upgrades to the flagship, and this one is set to be more significant.
