Sony Xperia Z1 teaser video goes live, mockup confirms name

The first teaser video of Sony Xperia Z1 also known as Honami has just been published by the Japanese maker. Unfortunately the video is a combination of all teaser pictures we've seen so far and gives us no new details.

Sony has already showed us the power key, the water-proof panels, the G-lens at the back, as well the slim profile which also revealed the announcement date - September 4. Yes, it's the same day Samsung will premiere the Galaxy Note III.

Sony Xperia Z1 has already leaked in various pictures and it looks much like its Xperia Z sibling. The Z1 will supposedly feature a 5" 1080p display and run on a Snapdragon 800 chipset. At the back it will boast a 20.7MP camera 1/2.3" sensor capable of 4K video recording, and a 3000 mAh battery.

Meanwhile, an Xperia Z1 mockup showed its face and was sized up against an Xperia Z and Xpetia Z Ultra mockups. Not only did it help us get a better idea of the size of the smartphone, the dummy also let us learn the model name of the Xperia Z1 - L39.

The smartphone will be unveiled on September 4 and we'll be there to cover it, so make sure you stick around when the time comes.

Thank you, Colby Leong, for the tip!
