Sony does, and according to\u00a0<em>Xperia Blog\u00a0<\/em>their next giant smartphone is almost ready to roll. Photos of a phone purported to be the Xperia C6 were leaked this week, showing a six-inch phone with minimal bezels, a sizeable front-facing camera and undeniable Sony branding.<\/p>\n<p>The original C5 Ultra was a high-end model, and we&#8217;d expect its successor to be no different. According to the source, the phone will come with a powerful octa-core MediaTek processor, which should be backed with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of expandable storage. Both single SIM and dual SIM models are expected, pointing towards a release in Japan (and potentially wider Asia).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55532\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1.jpg\" alt=\"1\" width=\"1170\" height=\"326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1-300x84.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1-768x214.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1-450x125.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As spotted by\u00a0<em>Android Police<\/em>, the lock screen pictured has a microphone in the lower left corner, a dead giveaway that the phone is running Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Sony have added their own skin on top as usual, and the phone should include the usual power-saving features and good camera software that Sony Xperia smartphone are known for.<\/p>\n<p>The front-facing camera looks impressive in the photos, with a prominent aperture and a front-facing flash. The C5 Ultra had a 13-megapixel front-facer, so we&#8217;d expect to see at least that megapixel count in its successor as well. The rear camera should be equally powerful, if not quite a challenge for the dual-camera systems that we&#8217;ve been seeing lately in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/2016\/02\/lg-g5-the-smartphone-reinvented\/\">LG G5<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/2016\/04\/htc-10-announced-a-freshly-designed-flagship-with-24-bit-audio-stabilised-selfies\/\">HTC 10<\/a>.

Sony&#8217;s most recent smartphone, the X Performance, is definitely subpar compared to the current range of Android flagships, so we may yet see them revisit the concept in the latter half of 2016.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/tieba.baidu.com\/p\/4401997491?pid=85387356487&amp;cid=85390263166#85390263166\">Baidu<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xperiablog.net\/2016\/04\/11\/sony-plans-6-inch-xperia-with-front-facing-flash-according-to-leaked-pics\/\">Xperia Blog<\/a> | Via: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/2016\/04\/12\/sony-planning-another-6-inch-xperia-device-possibly-the-xperia-c6\/\">Android Police<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n<!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.27.4 -->\n<div class=\"quads-location quads-ad1\" id=\"quads-ad1\" style=\"float:none;margin:0px 0 0px 0;text-align:center;\">\n<div id=\"bari-widget\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Like big phones?
