Expandable storage

One favorite thing from the current Xperia XZ handset that people love, is the fact that it features expandable storage - something that Google Pixel and iPhone 7 are lacking of.

The alleged Xperia XZ successor should support MicroSD card for memory expansion.

Smooth performance

Sony could be all out when offering its top-tier handset. According to Slashgear, the device codenamed Yoshino will have a Snapdragon 835 chip under the hood.

Media powerhouse

The specifications fit perfectly for an Xperia XZ iteration, especially when the rumored optics pair 23 MP with 16 MP sensors.

The new Xperia XZ 2017 will be an eccentric device that offers detailed shots and hi-res audio for great experience, just like its predecessor.
