For those of you who still remember, Sony’s VAIO use to be the company’s arm in producing laptops and computers. Since 2014, VAIO has been handed over to Japanese Industrial Partners (JIP), in a move that justified Sony’s intention to leave the PC market and focus on their own mobile phones and TVs. In a much anticipated and yet surprising news, however, have surfaced rumoring that the company is once again set in making headlines with their intention to debut a new flagship smartphone into the mobile market. The release date is allegedly set for March 12.
Sony which yet holds about 5% of VAIO’s shares and has its own Xperia line had most probably guided the company to its new rumored smartphone. According to the rumor, the VAIO phone will be powered by a 64-bit Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 chipset, along with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage. It will sport a 5-inch 720p display and a fairly decent camera setup, consisting of a 13MP main and 5MP front-facing shooter and comes with Android 5.0 out of the box.
From the curve where the rumor is heading and with the offered proof as well as a glimpse of its hardware, it might well be more than a rumor. However we have till March 12 to speculate.
