Sony Xperia XZ4 to sport triple camera setup with 52MP sensor: Report

Based on the leaked image, Sony XZ4 has a 16MP telephoto lens with an aperture of f/2.6. It sits above the main camera. The 0.3MP time of flight (ToF) camera sits below the main camera and it has an aperture of f/1.4.

The ToF camera may be used to measure distance. It can also play a vital role in augmented reality features of the phone. While the primary and secondary sensors contribute towards high-resolution images, the ToF sensor is used in autofocus and for 3D scanning.

Oppo R17 Pro already carries the ToF sensor and Apple is expected to bring in ToF sensor for its triple camera set up in the upcoming iPhones.

The back of the phone — visible in the leaked image — doesn’t sport a fingerprint sensor. Either Sony has gotten rid of the fingerprint sensor altogether for the face unlock feature or it has been placed elsewhere, like into the side of the phone or under the display.

Sumanhoinfo reveals that the image was posted to Reddit and the image itself seems to be using a CAD-based rendered image leaked in the past. It adds that the image certainly is not official.

Based on previous leaks, Sony Xperia XZ4 is expected to feature a 6.5-inch QHD+ OLED display with 21:9 aspect ratio. Other features of the Xperia XZ3 successor include a Snapdragon 855 processor, 6GB RAM, 128GB of internal storage and 4,400 mAh battery with wireless charging.

Sony is expected to pull off the curtain at Xperia XZ4 at the MWC 2019, which commences on February 25 and goes on till February 28.
