Yet another set of rumors concerning the Sony Xperia i1 Honami have hit the tech realm and it looks like the device is gearing up to give some serious competition to the likes of the Nokia Lumia 1020 and Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom as it is likely to bring 4K video recording capability. And we have already heard rumors which suggest that this Sony phone will be fitted with a 20MP camera complete with a G-lens.
As you can see below, the leaked image is actually a promotional one that reveals the Sony Xperia i1 Honami’s ability to support 4K videos. It was spotted by the folks over at Engadget on a Chinese language website called Vgooo. It seems believable because we have come across suppositions regarding the presence of a 4K-ready Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset.
This promotional slide discloses the video resolution of the handset to be 4000 x 2000 pixels and the presence of a 20MP Exmor R sensor camera. Users will also find that the company has bestowed the gadget with a decent 2.2MP webcam.
Some of the other features of the handset that have been unearthed by the grapevine over a period of time include a 5-inch or bigger touchscreen with the Triluminous technology. Apart from a 2.2GHz chipset, potential customers can expect the phablet to tag along 2GB of RAM, 16GB of onboard storage which is probably expandable using a microSD card and a power pack of 3000mAh capacity.
The Xperia i1 Honami launch event is expected to take place on September 4, which means the phone will be present at the IFA 2013 in Berlin. And we have no option but to wait for the company itself to confirm all of these rumors.
