Xperia Z4: Sony is not ready for the Mobile World Congress

At Mobile World Congress this year, we expected to see Sony unveiled its flagship smartphone, the Xperia Z4. However, it seems that the Japanese firm is not such a smartphone to be announced at the Catalan event this year, if we are to believe the latest information relayed by XperiaBlog.

Finally, according to the article, Sony will launch its flagship smartphone in summer 2015, and not at the Mobile World Congress . If this information is true, it would be a little shock, especially as all the rumors so far have pointed to the Barcelona event like the lair of the announcement. In addition, the Xperia Z4 was expected to appear with the other flagship Android smartphones major manufacturers such as Samsung and HTC.
As the sources of XperiaBlog have mentioned, the promotional email that ended up on the canvas evoking Sony Xperia Z4 speaks of output in May for the device. Although the Japanese firm certainly has his reasons on a delayed launch, this is very surprising from him, especially as it has in the past, released its flagship smartphone in various events such as CES in Las Vegas or the MWC in Barcelona.

The delay may have been caused by overheating of the Snapdragon processor 810 , but has recently been contradicted by LG as not being a problem. And the fact that we have already seen two smartphones with Qualcomm announce chip does not hide behind that excuse. Indeed, it would not be very plausible that any builder delays the announcement of their flagship smartphone because of possible problems with the Snapdragon 810 chip.

Anyway, if you believe that information, Sony will be the second manufacturer to "shun" the Mobile World Congress for the announcement of its flagship smartphone this year. LG is also likely to release its LG G4 around the month of May and the firm should not hold up a high-end device at MWC this year. However, in the case of LG things are a bit different, since the Korean company has already announced a smartphone powered by the Snapdragon processor 810, the G Flex 2, at the Consumer Electronics Show this year.

Commercialization later this year of its Xperia Z4 will mean that Sony will have no flagship device able to compete with the onslaught of devices powered by Snapdragon 810 chip in the coming weeks. The newest flagship smartphone of the Japanese firm, the Xperia Z3, ships Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 801, which is now two generations behind the Snapdragon 810.

What about you? Do you think Sony could make a mistake by delaying its announcement this year?
